If you can relate to this, consider that it's very common with ADHD[1].

My life has greatly improved once I learned about it, and got it treated, instead of blaming myself for all the things I did (or couldn't do).

I wrote up my experience here: https://romankogan.net/adhd

Didn't read the whole thing, but overall captures the essence of the relationship between Canadians and their rulers:

"We Canadians are usually quite satisfied, sometimes smugly so, with our achievements as a country."

"Politics, at least in good times, is thus regarded as a form of spectator sport that regularly matches the standard offerings of television. The best political philosophy, from this perspective, is to rotate the rascals in and out of office"
No exactly. It is his problem, as otherwise I would have paid 14 years times $30, i.e., $420 of lost revenue just from me.
My point is that saying "Arizona is among the best at driving itself into water depletion" is not a satisfactory answer to "Arizona is driving itself into water depletion."
If you don't care about software licenses or attribution, then you're not apart of FOSS. Sorry, Tom
Your doctor is misinformed. No one except outliers going through puberty have natural testosterone over 1000. The average for someone in their 30s is around 300-400. 250 is on the lower side but not so low that most people with that level would have the symptoms of low testosterone.

Please, for the love of everything good, do not hijack the right click.
Yes, currently the simulation performance is one of the biggest issues (https://github.com/trekhleb/self-parking-car-evolution/issue...). You may try to check the “Performance boost” checkbox that simplifies the geometry. It should give you approx x1.5 performance increase. But even with x1.5 boost the performance is still an issue, yes
Well, I'm sure this is not the worst thing about C++ that C++ people are "generally fine with", so that really doesn't tell me a lot. Not quite sure if this applies to useful programs, though. Lack of tail call elimination can definitely break a class of useful programs even with side effects.
Being able to append to an object would be amazing!
What about not treating users like kiddies needing supervision?

I think the Silicone Valley MVP TrendySpeak crowd needs to open eyes to the realities of life.

Slashdot is a very peculiar case of near no spam filtering, yet very good user content moderation

Kuro5 was also kind of interesting with its old user rating system.
And yet you have the east coast(north east in my example) which is extremely lush and has 0 water issues and most companies are building these large sites in western water poor areas, intel - arizona phab, tesla - nevada gigafactory, facebook, datacenter southern new mexico.
Yes, natural testosterone production decreases throughout your life once you finish puberty. Doctors vary wildly in what levels they will treat. You can find "mens clinics" that will give you testosterone therapy at virtually any blood level, they don't care. They're very expensive though (~$2000+ a year).
There's probably more use of C++ in embedded than there is Rust. Heck, there's probably more Ada and assembly, too, if you look for it. Rust might beat out Forth by now.
Next please make it more readable. Section 3 of the homepage has 3 different flavors of dark purple. I can barely read it.
The issue is that people like this fetishise avoiding tracking. It doesn't seem like they have a clear reason why they want to avoid tracking. Do they have sensitive data to hide? Do they ideologically disagree with large companies gathering data? Is it anything else? It honestly doesn't seem like it. It seems more like "stopping them from getting my data" is treated as an end unto itself.
Great post. Totally agreed.
interesting, firebase and facebook bought parse. Who's left to buy this ?
I'm very well aware that low accuracy voice transcription is possible.

But it's naive thinking that having an algorithm equals solving a technical problem. That's not even the problem. Problem is how to deploy it, at scale, without anyone leaking it (both employees and vendors). And hiding it so well, that none of the security researchers will be able to find it. And doing all of that in a way, that they can use it and get value out of it.

And then compare risks of doing with risks and ROI of, for example, improving search accuracy, so people will just come and tell you more about stuff they want.
Again, straight up running an FTP server on your machine is still the easiest way to transfer large files.

Also faster than uploading to the cloud, and then having the other party download it.
First of all, I have to recommend the 5 minute rule to everyone I see. Really force yourself to work, do something - but only for 5 or 10 minutes. Usually after 5 minutes I get in the zone and automatically work longer until i finish whatever task i’m working on. Sometimes it doesn’t work and i only spend 5 minutes, but even then it’s usually because i’ve already worked a lot recently, and i feel better for trying.

But this does seem like more than just being unproductive. Do you feel like your work is pointless, is your sense of achievement gone? I find it really hard to do something if I can’t understand why even at a high level. You mention that only some days are off, if you’re working a lot the other days it could be mental exhaustion. Is your diet / sleep good and are you getting sufficient exercise? If your work allows, when you catch yourself staring at the screen take a walk or run.
If something is given with permission, it's not theft.
This is why we enable port knocking (SPA) on all of our Internet-facing systems: it protects against zero-days and keeps the logs pristine. As a matter fact, any failed login of any kind creates a security alert.
> Your durability numbers imply erasure coding. Is that the case?

Well, you can't really build inexpensive, large scale, reliable storage without erasure coding. So that's probably a given.
a) I'm not "US population", I was born in the USSR and my first language is Russian

b) Using "West" gives away you're from Russia or the neighbouring countries

c) Your "truth" of “highly likely", no single piece of evidence, Germany/Navalny, etc are cheap arguments that are exaggerated and repeated non-stop by Solovyov/Simonyan and other state actors that instil fear and hatred into Russian people every day.

Each of your arguments is easily debunked within a few minutes of Googling around, including looking at investigations from within Russia (e.g. by The Insider) that used corrupt sources to buy passport copies, geolocation, flight history and phone metadata from the internal police databases. These investigations are never mentioned or even rejected by the state or the media. The reason? Because you can buy the same data and come to the same conclusions and confirm the investigation yourself.
>Trying to stop sexual abuse and child pornography isn't weird moralization.

How does moderation of content prevent sexual abuse or CP? If anything I'd argue it creates more, because those that seek the images instead have to produce their own if they cannot find them.
Sounds great! Congratulations on the new offering. As a sidenote, when Fastmail blogs, can you put that on a subdomain? Webmail interface is really sluggish right now which I assume is an effect of this news.
Cool, cool. I wonder if non-botching of newlines, paragraphs and quotes is anywhere on the roadmap. Apparently that's the hard problem for Element, especially the Android version.
I think reasonable move with these sort of companies is to ban them from market for decade or two. People get prison sentences, why shouldn't companies too?
Looks interesting. I just went through the onboarding as a current customer. It looks like we lost some features. I used rescue time to log offline activities as well - I can't seem to find that. Other features I liked were logging accomplishments for the day and being able to break down by app how my time was spent over the month/year. Are there any other features that we've lost in this upgrade?
Ask HN: Do You Use a VDI?
Our large company is slowly transitioning us from physical development machines to VDI[0] instances. At first as part of remote working during the pandemic, but possibly on a permanent basis. My gut reaction was to cringe. The latency and lack of options are annoying at best. But it is hard to ignore the security benefits. So I got to thinking, how do the FAANGs of the world handle this?

Windows Microsoft Store Adds Support for Alternate App Stores Like Epic Games
Around 1 year ago we got hit badly on our [blogging platform][0] by people/groups submitting fake customer support description of other big companies, either being Microsoft, Facebook, Comcast etc.

Rolled out a machine learning model and trained it on the database. 99% of them vanished.

Next day, the machine didn't work and success rate was around 5%.

Found out, they have learned the trick and now using symbols from different languages to make it look like English.

Trained again, success rate went up again.

Next hour, success rate fallen.

This time, they mixed their content with other valid content of our own blogging platform. They would use content from our own blog or other people posts and mix it to fool the machine learning.

Trained it again and was success.

Once a while such content appear and machine model fails to catch them.

It only takes couple of minutes to mark the bad posts and have the model get trained and redeployed and then boom, bad content is gone.

The text extraction, slicing through good content and bad content, finding out symbols vs sane alphabet and many other thing was at first challenging, but overall pretty excited to make it happen.

Through this we didn't use any platform to do the job, the whole thing was built by ourselves, little bit of Tensorflow, Keras, Scikit-learn and some other spices.

Worth noting, it was all text and no images or videos. Once we got hit with that we'll deal with it.

edit: Here's the training code that made the initial work https://gist.github.com/Alir3z4/6b26353928633f7db59f40f71c8f... it's pretty basic stuff. Later changed to cover more edge cases and it got even simpler and easier. Contrary to the belief, the better it got, the simpler it became :shrug

I think you may want to check your mappings/templates. There are a lot of data types for this kind of data and they don't rely on the inverted index that you would use for searching fields. Lucene, which Elasticsearch is built on, has a feature called "doc values" that stores data as column-oriented fields. This makes for the fast aggregations, sorting, and grouping for numeric and text fields.

One of the main strengths of Elasticsearch is that you can use it for searching and aggregating in a single query. But you need to ensure you are searching on fields that are indexed for search and sorting/aggregating on fields that are indexed for that.
Everyone is super skeptical of SAFe. It's a complete joke- a horror- to everyone I've talked to.

But the executive part of the company demands process, wants a role, so we invent creative re-bendings of agile, to make it "scale".

There's a couple valuable points in it, exercises & ways of looking in bigger terms that are good. While it's good for a company to be framing out the way work gets done across more deliberate dimensionalities than agile's window, the very act of "framing out" what agile is imposes the over-process that agile in many ways was supposed to relieve. You can't still be agile when you have a fixed standing point you & everyone else has to use.

I also think it's dogshit that as soon as you go from "Essential" to "Large" profiles, you suddenly have product teams with some attached architects that runs above the actual agile teams. This is, imo, a fatally flawed mistake that was already widely repeated, and there's a name for it already, it's not SAFe: it's waterfall.
CDs are digital too. It's probably better to say "the online release" or "the downloadable release".
Tough to say, I haven't used Synfig in a long long time. I'll give it another try and see if it's improved.
You can simply ask your doctor about which tests you want to do and he can order them for you. This might be expensive depending on your insurance.

Here's a good resource on both methods, and places to order online if you go with that method:

The problem with scrum discussion is it's always compared to waterfall, particularly unyielding waterfall. Even construction planning, which is where waterfall came from, of has slips and adjustments. There were other methodologies other than waterfall before agile or scrum arrived. I went to college in the mid 90s and they taught that waterfall existed but a more iterative approach was actually used in practice. If you were doing immutable waterfall, anything would have been better, maybe including nothing at all.

Having said that, I'm glad Scrum worked for you.
When this was first being presented at the Hackathon where it was created, I joined a few seconds late due to some camera trouble. My first thoughts where "Wow, they really went above and beyond, so tightly choreographing their presentation to their slides." Then it slowly dawned on me what was happening. Funny stuff.
Back in the 70’s I read kilobyte, excuse me, baud. But Byte magazine was cool, too.

Please please keep Linux support! I would pay more to not lose rescuetime on linux.

Also, the api you have is great and I use it a lot. Good job!

One thing I worry about is how my data is being stored, and what you are tracking.

Rescuetime is useful enough to me that I haven't left for this reason, but I have looked at open source competing products that I can run myself. Could you make me more comfortable about the security and confidentiality of my data somehow?

> Apollo or the placebo effect?

Note that the placebo effect is not about real improvement perceived by the sufferer except in a few very specific symptoms (pain, high blood pressure, and some psychiatric illnesses, mostly). In most cases, the placebo effect is simply optimistic interpretation/collection of data by people wanting to see the medicine work.
we will :) we're working to reach 5 GB per upload, with multi-part support.
Honestly, except for massive preservation efforts, Koalas are probably going to where Dodos went before them.

But not to worry, they'll be in very good company. The predatory ecosystem exploitation we've been living and breathing for quite some time now has put incredible strains on our whole life support system. Biological systems are amazingly resilient and this resilience has hidden much of the damage that has accumulated.

Unfortunately this has just made us disregard many of the warning signs that are flashing in front of our eyes. Food webs are collapsing, ecosystems get more and more fragmented and with increased fragmentation, failure in one part cannot be compensated for in another part.

Koalas are cute, so they get the publicity. That's good I guess. But let's not pretend that it's only koalas.

It's everything.
Where I got bit was email was used as login. I was trying to log in but couldn't remember the specific email I had used even though I generally had a fairly specific schema.
This is why we enable port knocking (SPA) on all of our Internet-facing systems: it protects against zero-days, keeps the logs pristine, and stops repeat connection attempts. As a matter fact, any failed login of any kind creates a security alert.
Oh I thought it would only do group text chat when it first went live (still in beta).

But it could be that voice/video calls were blocked by our IT because at that time WebEx was our approved tool (not WebEx Teams, just the regular scheduled meeting tool).
> Intellectuals were more terrified than merely 'making fun' of Mutually Assured Destruction. Their satirising efforts where aimed at stemming the nuclear arms race and nuclear weapon proliferation

At which they failed, but perhaps they spread enough fear of nuclear war to make MAD work better, which certainly wasn't the plan but is a kind of win on its own.
The article is about business running platforms with UGC.

While free forums on the darknet might get away with a tad more lax policies, if you’re a registered business hoping to make any money you won’t have a choice but to moderate in some way. At the very least it will be to follow your country laws, and more often than not your clients will require you to do so.
Affinity Designer is a great tool for those of us willing to use commercial/non-free software (and who hate Adobe). It's relatively inexpensive, and the company tries very hard to make users happy.
I've used it for numerous projects requiring vector output, ranging from bespoke posters to feeding the laser cutter.
It will output a lot of formats, but in combination with Inkscape, you can convert the output to pretty much anything you would need.
Toys are regularly a source of lead as well. Paints and materials usually end up in the mouths of young kids.
> A good tree will have something like log(n) depth so normal recursion should be fine.

But in many contexts you have to be robust against a bad tree.

Not always, in the presence of dynamically sized arrays (or alloca and friends).
The Kind of Writing Your Company Needs
There were two vague time periods to medieval monastic life. By the late middle ages it had transitioned to pretty much as you say (although, every monastery was different). Centuries of donations of land from nobles had meant that they didn't really need to work anymore in order to have an extremely upper class life style. And centuries of 'donations' of second and third born male offspring (who otherwise wouldn't get an inheritance anyway) had eroded the spirit of a lot of the piety rules they operated under since a lot of these kids never really wanted to be monks in the first place.
Unions are simply businesses that make labor available to companies. Any notion that they are something different from a business is mistaken. Attempts by unions to use government to make themselves legal monopolies are just as bad as any other business using government to do that.
Maybe it's as simple as a tradition that helps make sure that nobody forgets to take care of the beehives (an important part of a community's agricultural infrastructure) when somebody dies or leaves the home (due to marriage, etc.)
I used to raise beef cattle. I was told the calves get inoculated from common water supplies, whether a natural watering hole or a trough.
I can’t wait for this to turn into a monthly subscription. With the ME validating it by checking in with a remote license server.
California farmers use 40 trillion litres of water per year. At your rate that would be roughly 80 billion dollars a year or so. California's entire agriculture sector is worth around 50 billion a year dollars. So just the cost of water would be way more than all their earnings. And then you have to pay for equipment, pay for workers etc.

It's not a statistic, rather it's an idiom, meaning "a small part of".

If US statistics are anything to go by, then it will be 10pc of those 17 million, sending 80pc of tweets, so the media is primarily focusing on what a very vocal 2.5pc are thinking.

Looking at the patches, it seems running 'grep -rnw "mail -s" <fail2ban installation folder>, and replacing all found with "mail -E 'set escape' -s" is all that is needed.
Do you have a mechanism for appealing the automated process?
Great note. We're releasing a reworked version of offline time entry next month. Our stand on bringing classic features to this new version involves evaluating how they might work in this new balance-centered mindset. Reports on time spent by app are likely coming back in some form, but we're reworking everything so it's less about hours tracking and more about whether you got your work done. Hopefully that helps explain the reasoning for the differences a bit more.
Elasticsearch apart from being an overkill for logging, I feel has a high cost of maintenance as the system starts to scale. Somehow that cost is not very visible in the start. One of the Singapore based successful start-up (Grab) had blogged about some other pain-points a couple of years back ( https://engineering.grab.com/how-built-logging-stack ) as well.
It's fine to point out problems with specific comments but your claims about "prevalance" and "dominance" are incorrect. They're far from prevalent or dominant, and it's a cognitive bias which causes people to arrive at such conclusions: they/you/all of us drastically over-weight the comments we dislike, which leads to false feelings of generality ("prevalence").

The truth is that HN gets all sorts of comments because it's an open public forum. It's divided in the same way that the public at large is divided—all over the world, because this is a highly international site. We can't expect immunity from bad or extreme comments under such conditions. All we can hope for is that most of those get downvoted, flagged, or otherwise moderated—which is precisely what happened to the comment you were reacting to upthread.

If you see a post that ought to have been moderated but hasn't been, the likeliest explanation is that we didn't see it. We don't come close to seeing everything that gets posted here. You can help by flagging it or emailing us at hn@ycombinator.com.

False dichotomy. You could rip all your CDs and scan all your books, and there's a good chance it'll fit on a single hard disk drive. Don't forget that digital storage technology density is improving every year, while books and CDs aren't getting any smaller.
