Following some more details, I get to an actually reassuring (to me anyway) claim:

"Warning: For security reasons, GitHub Support may not be able to restore access to accounts with two-factor authentication enabled if you lose your two-factor authentication credentials or lose access to your account recovery methods"

Given that I use GitHub to publish code, I can't lose access to the code - it's published - but I would worry that other people might be able to impersonate me and e.g., publish an update with a backdoor. Or the hypothetical impersonator could write racist garbage in every GitHub issue tracker they can find until the account is terminated, which hurts my reputation.

I think I feel the same about lots of other things. This HN account for example. Amazon. Facebook.

Probably not my bank, and not my government. I want the government to be willing to eat the cost of verifying that yup, I'm me - and never pretend that if that's too expensive it's somehow not their problem. It's disgusting for example that a Tory government destroyed records of who this country had invited from the West Indies in the 1940s and 1950s, then, knowing it no longer had those records, tried to deport people who had no proof of citizenship, arguing they must have come here illegally and should be sent "home" to a country they'd not seen for seventy years...

I think it's interesting that PEP 484 says ([1]): "the authors have no desire to ever make type hints mandatory, even by convention," while the opening of this article says "type hints have grown from a nice-to-have to an expectation for popular packages." Things don't always work out the way the PEP authors expect.

I agree, Nexo/Celsius/Blockfi should not be going around saying they are "riskless". However, blocking out the majority of the general public from high yield investments is not the right move. Wealthy =/= sophisticated. If people want to take risk and get paid high yields in return for creating liquidity in emerging financial ecosystems, let them do it! Don't apply a 1930s frame work to a 21st century technology. I'm much more in favor of what Coinbase is doing - push for a seperate regulatory regime specifically designed to handle digital assets.

For all those who try to compare this to subprime, there's two big differences here. First, decentralized lending is enforced by smart contract -> the banking apps dont take credit risk because they can auto liquidate defaulter's assets and collect a 10-20% liquidation fee for doing so. Second, decentralized lending apps max out at 60% LTV. People are either going to be safe and do 30-40% leverage which protects against 33-50% drops in the value of the collateral, or they are going get liquidated at 60%. There's no too big to fail here.
Essentially you'd rather some people go broke at the expense of others (you?) having more of a chance to get rich, and others prefer nobody has a high chance of going broke or rich. I suppose there's no objective way to settle this, but people have more of a human right to avoid poverty than to get rich, so the former is harder to justify.

Especially the keyboards, and the speakers in recent years.
> A new keyword would clobber existing symbols, and that's painful, so, C++ tries not to do it, instead repurposing existing keywords.

It's even more painful than that. A new keyword could conflict with a macro. So even contextual keywords (something which is a keyword only in a place where arbitrary symbols are not allowed, so there's no conflict) could be problematic.
window snapping is too slow for me (have to do 3 things: activation, resize, move to edge/center, the later 2 even require sicky keys)

I don't find the tilling feature useful at all and of course this is my personal gripe with tilling in general.

The last thing you want is having your windows perfect then ANY new window or dialog open automatically messes it up and you have to "re-organize" every time. Setting layout should be a one and done thing.
My understand is that Loop-Blinn performs constrained Delaunay triangulation prior to uploading an actual display list to the GPU, in effect turning its cubic curves into quadratic ones, from the paper:

> The overlap removal and triangulation is a one-time preprocess that takes place on the CPU

All I'm suggesting is merely to ditch that process, ditch the idea that you can have intersecting lines, and instead design tools around convex and concave isolated triangles[0] (quadratic curves) so you end up composing shapes like the ones from the Loop-Blinn paper[1] directly, with your tools aiding you in composing them rather than more complex shapes (cubic curves, intersecting segments, etc.) being in the actual model one needs to render.

I don't think any of this is truly novel from a research POV or anything, it's just a different approach that I think can in practice lead to far better real-world application. It's considering the whole picture from designer -> application instead of the more limited (and much harder) "start with SVGs, how do we render them on GPUs?" question.

My brain is having hard time processing this - im curious what your running history has been compared to rowing. This is an...interesting assertion.
Anyone have experience sourcing LIS software?
Working at a small healthtech startup with a lab. Every call I get on with LIS sources it just seems like I'm going to be dealing with something ancient. Special services integrations, super slow timelines, people that have never heard 'json' before...

All I want is to be able to reliably pull data from our various lab machines. Does anyone offer this as a service directly? We already have a patient database tied to our ordering system.
I generally agree that vertical SIMD is more efficient than horizontal SIMD when both are options, but the dot product is kind of an unfair example: that's literally the worst case for horizontal SIMD. A fairer example would be something like 4x4 matrix times vector transformation, where horizontal SIMD is pretty efficient with AVX2 broadcast instructions.
I borrowed a Concept 2 at the start of the pandemic, it was great but they are pretty noisy (fan provides resistance). Eventually I returned it and bought a waterrower. I've been very happy with it. It's mostly wood, so looks nice, but more importantly (for me) it's much quieter than the concept2, and the performance is very similar (0). Highly recommend.

(0) I've rowed a lot on Concept2 machines, even on professional competitions, I was expecting bigger differences.
>OK, but there are dongles for that

Well, why have any ports at all? A single USB-C suffices; For everything else, there's a dongle.

No need to stop at ports either. If the SD Card reader can go through USB-C, so can webcam, audio, and the peripherals.

Surface and iPad have shown us that a portable device doesn't need a keyboard/touchpad, and those who want them can connect via bluetooth.

Of course, even having bluetooth built-in is superfluous when perfectly fine Bluetooth dongles are available.

Finally, there are great USB-C portable monitors out there. Why limit the users to something built-in, especially when not everyone has a need for it?

The same goes for the battery; given the abundance of USB-C power banks.

Once we get rid of all these unnecessary bells and whistles, we'll end up with peak MacBook: a shiny, metal square with a single USB-C port, an Apple logo on top, and all the dongles one can dream of (available separately).
Curious, what split are you going for your daily 2k? In college, I was doing semiregular 2k tests, and I could never imagine trying to uphold a regular schedule of them.
We feel similar. Real progress isn't glamorous, and for years there's been unnecessary hype around the buzzwords. SEO and attention economies have cultivated these behavioral trends because it's profitable.

My first question for any blockchain-related project is, why do you need a blockchain? Most struggle to answer.

What's clear, from my perspective, is that humanity has an abundance of passion that's being funneled into profits. I firmly believe there will be operators in the coming years that will offer a strikingly unique set of value propositions that cannot be contested by the current majority controllers.

The point of a dynamic language is to be dynamic, ie you can do those things at runtime.

With Rails you have the option of pry-rails, and you can get a list of descendants of important parent classes like ActiveRecord with this: https://apidock.com/rails/Class/descendants

With the combination of vim, rspec, pry, fzf, and ripgrep, it's possible to become quite comfortable refactoring pure Ruby and Ruby+Rails code. But it does take some time to learn how to navigate the Rails runtime code generation magic. The more magic the code, the more you might have to use a debugger to break on method definition, but Ruby's dynamicism lets you do that.

On the topic of frameworks with a lot of magic, having used both Rails and Spring Boot (with Java and Kotlin), I'll take Rails any day. It was way easier to introspect Rails codegen magic with Pry, than Spring's codegen magic with IntelliJ. With Spring Boot, even with Kotlin, we had the burden of semi-manual typing, but lost a lot of the benefits because a lot of DB interaction and API payload handling was still only runtime checked.
Thats really when it would matter. MacOS has an ever present menu bar at the top of the screen. A notch would be entirely unintrusive - and practically invisible in Dark Mode.
This is dangerous reasoning; the google memo incident shows science walks a narrow path, and there are pitfalls all around.

Science is the best sword we have to separate truth from falsehood; to say that science is wrong and biased whenever it doesn't say what we like is to commit the exact same sin against scholarship as Damore. Damore didn't like what he was hearing from the diversity experts so he went and cherry picked the studies that supported his gut feeling. Cherry picking is still cherry picking even when you're doing it in defense of diversity.

I think one of the under-discussed aspects of the whole debacle was the is-ought problem [0], i.e. the gap between statements about "what is" and statements about what "ought to be."

Science works very well on "what is" questions. It can tell us that the earth is warming. It can tell us all the things that will happen as the earth warms, and all the things we could do that that would stop the earth from warming. But when it comes time to decide what temperature the earth "ought" to be, we can't ask science; we have to first decide what our goals are. If our goal is to maximize short term profit, we will get a different answer than if we want to maximize long term sustainability.

In the same way, science can't tell us what the gender ratio "should" be. Its on us to decide what our priorities are. If our goal is short term profit, we will undoubtedly prefer a different ratio than if we are trying to achieve a more egalitarian society in the long term.

So that is why the author's assertion "In fact, science has often made its living from encoding and justifying bias, and refusing to do anything about the fact that the data says something’s wrong." is a misrepresentation of science. Science tells us "the earth is warming", we are the ones who have to add "and that is wrong." Science tells us "there is bias", we are the ones who have to add "and that is wrong." That scientists in the past have failed to add that last bit (or even added "and that is good!") is not adequate justification for the author to simply dismiss science.

It's round robin if no key specified otherwise it uses murmur2 hash of the key so the partition for a key is always deterministic.

Just checking the docs it appears the round robin is no longer true after Confluent Platform 5.4. After 5.4 it looks like if no key specified the partition is assigned based on the batch being processed.

> If the key is provided, the partitioner will hash the key with murmur2 algorithm and divide it by the number of partitions. The result is that the same key is always assigned to the same partition. If a key is not provided, behavior is Confluent Platform version-dependent:...

Cool, if you're looking to get a bit more publicity, it might be cool for you to do a post on usage numbers of protected vs free. It's common that people try to do a "sign-up first" version, only to discover it is difficult to get interest.

Let’s be clear:

1. He sold index funds, not individual stocks like the other officials.

2. His “boss” (Trump) was holding up legislation to save the economy so it’s possible he was worried about the economy for reasons outside his control

3. The stock market went up drastically since then, so he would have much more money if he had just held his Vanguard funds since then. SPY went from what $330 to $450? So he missed a gain of 33%.

This is a really dumb “scandal” that makes no sense. Leave the dude alone. Go after the Senators like Richard Burr and probably Kelly Loeffler who really were insider trading

Great reporting and great work! I'm really interested in some of the "less-cultivated" plants mentioned in the article (like Kernza). It seems so weird that of all the plants that exist, we grow like 10. Seems like there's a lot of room for that "fail-fast" mindset to locate new plants we could grow that suit a particular need (or are really delicious and we had no idea!).
c# even has target-typed expressions which might be useful aswell, i.e. instead of var instance = you write SomeClass instance = new(); this might be preferable so that you have all types on the left.

The sensor itself is in the rail with, I assume, a magnet in the seat. But no, not a Concept2, it's a Horizon Oxford IV. £600 new several years ago. Luckily I bought it second hand, but still, not the bargain I thought I was getting! I did wonder how common this ruse is on other machines.

Anyway, doing something on the flywheel might make an interesting Raspberry Pi project one day I suppose, although calibrating it to any meaningful distance travelled might be a problem. Suppose I'd have to get a professional rower in to estimate what it felt like!
Concept 2 has an app for both iOS and Android, ErgData. It is quite good for logging your meters to your Concept 2 logbook which you'll need for qualifying for your t-shirt. ErgData requires the PM5 monitor which has ANT+ and Bluetooth Smart wireless. There are other apps, but ErgData is sufficient for me.

A downside is that an Apple Watch doesn't talk directly to a PM5. So your heart rate isn't displayed up on the PM5. Annoying. There are kluges but then they are kluges.

Ideal dimension did not mean "humanistic, moral". It can certainly refer to the religious dimension of the ethic, but humanism and morals are certainly not rejected by materialist philosophy! In fact, Marx drew heavily on Fuerbach, which was one of the most preeminent humanists. Perhaps the confusion lies with the idea of anthropological materialism, meaning materialism centered around humanist goals.

In the excerpt, social relations are not described as being only relations of productions, it's merely that relations of production are the ones being talked about. But it is clear to anyone that the relations of production are some of the most important and indeed most of our social relations are relations of production. But certainly, it's the non-material relations which are the focus here, not the actual product.

As far as the species-being of humans being only different from animals insofar as we can self-actualize through labor, this is a bit of a reduction. Self-actualization through labour, where labour is any productive act, done for any imagined purpose - it's more than the productive act, it's the creativity and freedom with which that act is taken that to Marx distinguish human from animal. Clearly this difference assumes to human a unique creative, free, conscious aspect, so while to Marx this is made evident through these creative acts, these acts differentiate us because they embody our creativity, consciousness, and freedom, not merely because of their product. In that Marx is no different from the humanists before him, he simply focuses on the expression of human nature on the set of all social relations that make it evident. The reason why he does this is because he believes that human nature expresses itself differently depending on the circumstance, and so that appealing on a Platonic ideal of human nature that is absolutely perfect and unchanging is incorrect, therefore he refers to species-being as the current embodiment of human nature.

To go back to your earlier point, yes, it is a way of understanding the human without any Platonic, religious, or mystical ready-made truth. But it is at the same time humanistic and moral. There is no denial of the freedom, the feelings, the subjectivity and the relationships of people, instead they are actually central, and they are instead understood through the material world where they express themselves. What is denied is the existence of a perfect, idealized, untouchable component to these things that is completely separate and inscrutable from the material world.

So if the objection to the theory of alienation is that it sees all social relations as ultimately based on "stuff", that is not the case, which is why Marx makes a distinction between social relations writ large and social relations.

Language-wise, OpenSCAD is very functional-ish indeed. Try writing code to distribute a vector of length multipliers evenly along some arbitrary length, e.g. [1,2,1] times 20 over 100 coordinate units. It is only possible by recursively calculating a vector of coordinate positions, in our example [0,5,25,30,70,75,95,100]. Not the easiest task for the uninitiated.
C# has most of this stuff and I think Java has at least a few of these but I wouldn't say any of these are really much of a differentiator.
One thing I enjoy about rowing is that you can get a lot of cardio in very short time. For example, 5 sets of 2 minutes on and one minute off aiming for 500 (or even 600) metres per set can leave you pretty drained.

I work in the downtown San Francisco area. The Waymo cars clog up more than just this weird dead-end street. They have become a bit of a nuisance in the entire area.

In the Financial District, there are many one-way streets. In California, when you're on a one-way street and you're turning onto another one-way street, you're allowed to turn left on a red light. Unfortunately, the Waymo cars don't seem to know this. Despite no cars coming, they will wait for green before turning left.

They also drive SLOW. I suppose that's safer, but when you're stuck behind one of these cars that's doing 15 mph when every other car is doing 20-25, it's rather annoying.
While I skimmed, I didn’t see anything about “regenerative” besides a casual mention of cover crops which you wouldn’t do anything in particular to already (no pesticides or fertilizer or genetic engineering). The other bit was about being very local about picking where and how to grow nontraditional crops (think farmers market faire) in difficult locations that would otherwise grow nothing.

Transgenic watermelons aren’t a thing and the markets for these like organic.

Basically a bunch of progressive kinds of people are moving to Montana to grow fancy food and like to get pieces written to show off their virtue. They’re not entirely wrong but also… eh it’s all a little overdone.
The constrained Delaunay triangulation in Loop-Blinn is for tessellating the object so that every fragment belongs to at most one curve (i.e. removing self intersections). It doesn't approximate cubic Béziers with quadratic ones. See section 4 and especially section 4.5 in the paper.
From skimming the review paper from OP (the "source:" in the caption on that error-bar chart), the neutrons in the beam experiments are thermalized, to a mean velocity of ~2,200 m/s. So, slower than 1e-5 c.

https://doi.org/10.3390/atoms6040070

(Thermal meaning the neutrons scatter lots of times against atoms in a solid material, until they reach thermal equilibrium. ~km/s is a typical Boltzmann velocity for atom-size things at room temperature).
