Google is also often wrong. For example, my computer is set to US English, as is my profile. Yet somehow it still gets confused on decimals and commas (they are switched in my current country’s locale).
Can you include more screenshots? It’s kind of hard to judge usefulness without UI.
Yeah, that is ridiculous. Especially with auditors going after nearby farms when seeds that can reproduce end up on other farms in small quantities through purely natural mechanisms.

I can imagine a future dystopia where the food supply collapses due to all the crops being sterile for reproduction and then some plant disease wipes them out.
Still the go-to when I need to solve a complex integral or even diff EQs. Amazing how well it parses that type of entry.
Unity might be helpful. I think Microsoft has some hololens tutorials utilizing that.
That in turn reminds me of TheDraw, which I remember in lieu of Acid Draw. Maybe a regional thing?

As a game dev "you can expose a more direct, console like API. The idea being that at worst you can only crash your own process's GPU context and that was always allowed." is extremely funny to me. Any time I test Vulkan code on my machine I make sure to save all my work first since if the code has any bugs it has a decent chance of trashing kernel data structures and causing a BSOD.
You can use ARM but it will only be open to the people paying for the NDA.

Most college programs has very straightforward tests designed to be easy to pass, and students usually try to learn as little as possible by memorizing the material they can memorize instead of internalising anything. This combination means that a large majority of students who graduate will have a horrible understanding of the material studied. And since students have a horrible understanding and try to memorize, if you design tests that aren't straightforward and easy then almost everyone will fail, so you can't do that...

And then these students graduate, think that the paper is proof that they actually learned these things, but if you prod their knowledge then it all just falls down since there is no substance there.
So you're just making vague and unsupported allegations based on your own political prejudices. Got it.
Not if "too much" is relative to their physiology. How much is too much varies for each person.
They ARE anti-white propaganda. This isn't hyperbole, it's simply descriptive of the facts. Maybe they weren't at some point, but a new crop has taken over the reigns, and pretty much all of those groups have embraced wokeness, intersectionality, "white man bad" etc. Hell, forget "diversity groups": we live in world where Google deliberately tampers with Image Search results to downplay white people and promote literally anyone else. We're DROWNING in anti-white propaganda. And yes, sooner or later, there's going to be a backlash.
They probably should!

Also, recall would only be an issue if they didn't truly master the material. Do you need to recall how to ride a bike after you've learned to do it?
I use it as a hobbyist, it's much more pleasant to program in than C# once you get over the minimal hump of thinking more functionally than you would in C#/Java/etc. It has a great type system and the available tooling is pretty nice (powerful tools for data, parsing, etc exist for it as with many other functional or math-oriented languages). The annoying bit is that MS doesn't seem to care that much about it despite it being much sleeker, flexible, and terse than C# or VB, and thus it tends to sit unused despite all its niceties.
So much of a computer PSU is dedicated to 12 volts, though. I can get a 5V 60A supply for $27 and save a lot of unnecessary complexity.

Though either way you might be better off with a series of USB hubs.
And if you have to be, do it up close.

> Startups have already done both things

Startups intend to do both things. ;-)
Cannibalism used to be considered normal. In fact it was normal to eat some of the body parts of your conquered enemies and/or keep their shrunken heads around as decorations.

We stopped doing that because at some point we worked out that it was gross and - eventually - that it was also very unhealthy.

Technically it was a local minimum - a place to pause, but not somewhere you really want to stay.

Narcissism is similar. It's a hugely problematic way of being in the world that has been normalised for centuries. If we're lucky we're about to outgrow it.

Lacking empathy for others and for the environment is an issue of psychological hygiene and cognitive effectiveness.

In the same that poor physical hygiene causes serious health issues in the population, poor mental and psychological hygiene causes emotional and behavioural issues.

You could argue cannibalism should be a free choice and keeping the old ways is not only not harmful but a matter of honour and dignity.

No doubt those arguments were made when it was on its way out.

Narcissism is similar. It's incredibly corrosive personally and politically, and there isn't really a good argument for tolerating it.

Cannibalism is considered hopelessly abnormal behaviour today, and with any luck individual and collective narcissism will soon go the same way.
Could this be argued as Apple simply further "securing their supply chain" or locking out substitutions of aftermarket parts?
> Despite being such a world-renowned mega city, Tokyo ranks 99th in terms of the most expensive average price for a one bedroom apartment in the city center (wherever that may be).

These Japan-is-wonderful articles of late have such a recency bias. It was only a few decades ago when Tokyo was famous for having the most expensive real estate in the world.
This article made me feel proud of my adopted city. I agree with its premises and the things that the article argues make Tokyo so great are actually the reasons I moved here many years ago. And stayed.
> it's still a beginner's mistake

Absolutely, but previously that wouldn’t cost you €5000 extra.
Wouldn’t that be properly expressed as 118 Smoots plus 5 Ears?
We’re in a hyperinflationary period. Loans are extremely inexpensive, cash is cheap. I suspect the majority of influx in crypto is due to an abundance of fiat.

With that said, there’s quite a lot going for Ethereum and defi as a sector. Major tech players like Google are funding many web3 startups. Facebook is fully embracing the “metaverse,” whatever the f** that is.

Tesla is trading at some ridiculous multiple of earnings for the same reasons. Yes, there’s likely much future value in Tesla and web3. But the rapid recent growth is mostly indicative of the fed money machine going brrr.
See also NYC (or at least Manhattan which I'm most familiar with). Both vehicles and pedestrians take an inch wherever they can get it.

The West Coast at least used to be more rule-abiding. Many years ago now, I remember a co-worker complaining he had gotten a ticket for jaywalking in San Francisco I think. Of course, these days you probably need to murder someone to get the police involved in SF but I digress.

And when I worked in a smaller city fairly near Boston, when going out to lunch, I was pretty much the only person who was inclined to just cross the street while my coworkers waited for the light.

So it does vary.
To all, your defenses of the chaplain are more nuanced than even the authors of this article give. The sole argument they make is that the chaplain made "statement of...facts" and "facts are not racist, and stating facts is not racism." As discussed above, this may be true in a narrow sense, but the inclusion, exclusion, and sequencing of facts is the very basis of editorial narrative. If we agree that bigoted diatribes such as the white supremacist example above are a sequence of carefully chosen facts, then how is this a valid defense of anything?
Vaccines are effective at reducing death and hospitalization. They don't reduce transmission to zero, for the Delta variant in particular. Children and many teens are not vaccinated, and they're also particularly vulnerable to the Delta variant. Masks are most effective at stopping transmission. For the same reason cars are equipped with brakes and seatbelts.
The pricing seems random to me. (Even it seems cheaper than last time I've checked).

It's ~20% more expensive in Euro than in Dollar. (And Poland, which I checked for curiosity as it's in the EU but does not use Euro, has a price in Pound with is even higher; Poland is not a rich country).

Also I don't think charging for example people in countries in Africa as much as for example US people makes any sense.

The service is really great for some questions but the commercial offer never added up for me.

If the software would be OpenSource and run on prem I would consider buying some additional online services for it (even at the current random price point and without having a real use case; it's not more expensive than an average online game, so bearable). It would make also that "Wolfram Language" worth having a look at. But I don't bother even glimpsing at closed source programming languages. That's especially one of the things they do very poorly.
Los Angeles would be a much more desirable region if it had Tokyo's rail network.
No, I recall Canada doing such a study decades ago. A lung cancer death might be years and expensive treatments but it pales in comparison to say dementia where you’re housing a patient who needs 24/7 care for a couple decades.

Plus smokers pay high tobacco taxes and fully contribute to pension plans prior to their early demise. This particular study found their smoking was a net positive, from a financial perspective.
They use the rest of the night for maintenance, to keep the insane throughput and super precise train arrival times.
> Yes, some interview questions are awfully close to logic puzzles - having to know the two pointer trick for detecting cyclic graphs, what CS program covers that industry-specific technique?

My comp sci degree covered this, and it isn't a particularly prestigious university either. Most leetcode problems are just extensions of (or exact duplicates of) problems covered in my Data Structures and Algorithms class.

It seems like some of the skill involved for passing leetcode interviews is pattern-recognition to quickly recognise the kind of problem and what the likely tools to solve it are.
You described a bunch of failings of the school and then said:

I find that puzzling. A good school will not have most of those problems. Doing well when the kids coming in is hard but doable.

>Someone who purchases an iPhone does not automatically endorse every single aspect of the iPhone.

While this is true, it does point out that that's not an important enough factor for them to not buy the phone, though. All these claims that this is in the interest of consumers is meaningless when people aren't buying the other phones but are buying iPhones. It seems Apple is nailing the "interests of consumers" pretty well, if that's the case.

Hmm, the screenshot of the statement praises Daily Mail a lot for their "journalism". To get the first layer of the joke you have to see this as highly sarcastic, so the rest of the statement can also be seen as sarcastic. That joke has somehow has been missed by this Vice journalist.

Unless there's a second layer to the joke which I might be missing...
Take your exaggeration and shove it.

Dude, 'race' was invented within the last 600 years.
You can do that still. Just a bit more work to evaluate the ORM layer first.
That’s reaching. You’re by that logic locked on the internet, the supermarket and tattood by your credit score.
> But when you advocate for large scale returns to "natural" farming, you're taking a position that leads directly to ecofacism and genocide though famine. Or at least a radical restructuring of the global economy where much greater sections of land and the labor force would be required to be farmers.

Actually I am designing an open source farming robot focused on regenerative agriculture so that everyone can move to automated regenerative agriculture in an affordable way. Honestly I really think you are talking a big game without really knowing what you are saying.
That pagekite looks handy! I’ve recently got gigabit fiber at home but my routers ipv6 firewall is crap. This seems easier than just making a custom vpn to a cloud instance.
Re: different form of memory comment: ok, let me offer another analogy, do you need to spend time recalling how to implement a for loop?

No one is testing your ability to do cutting edge original CS research in these interviews. It's just basic fundamentals
Yeah but you don't want night only data. You want to know what the speed is while people are actually using it
That is certainly a factor, and there is also an emphasis more on the mathematical proofs of algorithms than applications in such courses.
I suspect, when he says game developers will face 20 core CPUs, he means as a target baseline system, not as an exception.
PGP is bloated and complex, trying to be the Swiss Army Chainsaw of encryption and verification. It lacks modern features of encryption tools such as channel binding (which opens whole categories of exploits) and perfect forward secrecy (instead preferring to use long-lived keys, which are a nightmare of their own).

PGP also allows a host of insecure options without mandating secure ones: while it does offer good algos and distribution mechanisms (e.g. WKD), it also offers poor/deprecated algos and disasters like keyserver pools.

As for Signify: Minisign supports trusted and untrusted comments in signatures to supply metadata.

Some distributions like OpenBSD and Void Linux have finally upgraded their package signing from PGP to Signify; Debian is in the process of migrating from PGP to Ed25519 sigs (https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/Apt/Spec/AptSign). If we manage to switch enough distros off PGP, maybe we can remove the need to have PGP installed by default.
Yes good to see you Lalitha! Totally agree of course.
The article highlights some great points about why Tokyo is so livable, but having been in the market for a home here last year, I also think the depreciation of Japanese real estate (at least the physical structures) is a big factor.

New houses and apartments depreciate significantly once bought, and old homes can even trend into negative territory. Land that someone has cleared for you can be more expensive than the same land with an old home on it that they presume you will later pay to demolish.

The land itself in Tokyo can appreciate, but not enough to offset the rapid depreciation of the structure. A lot of the avoidance around old homes is cultural (maybe because of frequent natural disasters), and it’s started a self-fulfilling prophecy where old homes can actually not be livable. People build homes with the depreciation in mind and don’t generally use long—lasting materials, leading to homes that aren’t actually livable a few decades later when they might be sold.

On the bright side, this leads to a lot of opportunities for architects to build new homes, so it’s also part of the reason why you see so many uniquely designed homes out of Japan.

Decentralized identity is a pie in the sky to me. It sounds great but when you really start to think about what identity is, it’s formed by your relationships and connections.

Tools like this may be useful in some instances but auth will always tend towards centralization
I have never seen anyone complain about "jaywalking" when it's safe to do so, because you're not impeding traffic.

Here in NYC people will cross as the light turns green and end up with an entire intersection at a standstill.

It's amazing because even my poorly trained Greyhound has picked up a concept of "we stop for something" at intersections. He's not quite sure what, but he'll wait for some signal from me.

Yet somehow people are unable to figure that out.
The cost of industrial chemistry is largely the amount of energy required to produce a ton of chemical. There are different ways to make any chemical all of which have different cost structures depending on the application.

Making hydrogen from water is extremely electricity intensive, around 50 MWh per ton. Even aluminum production from ore, which is famously electricity intensive, only requires a small fraction of the energy input that hydrogen requires when produced this way.

Making hydrogen from methane has a more expensive feedstock (methane versus water) but requires vastly less energy which makes it much cheaper overall. I would guess that methane feedstock also requires a less expensive plant per ton of production capacity, which would also lower costs.
FreeBSD has "adaptive locks" in the kernel, but the logic works the other way: A sleep mutex might spin for a while before sleeping. Going the other way wouldn't work because there's some contexts (e.g. in a lightweight interrupt handler) where you can't sleep.

I don't know F#, but from what I gather it's very similar to OCaml which I do. To put it bluntly, after OCaml, most other languages feel ugly. OCaml is my idea of what programming should be: graceful, ordered, well-designed, mathematical, yet practically applicable to real-world problems.
Is it in a language that one has not encountered in day to day work in a long time? Because if so, that is analogous to interviewees encountering an algorithmic problem they have not dealt with in a while.
"All those Amazon RDS fees will be lost in time" ..like tears in rain?
That's not how it works. You're the one making the claim, you have to show the evidence to support that claim. They have only claimed that their intention in doing this is to improve security on these devices and they've literally published white papers showing how this does that. There's an entire white paper dedicated to the Secure Enclave and another dedicated just to FaceID.

There's no obvious and direct answer here because you haven't challenged their claim or their evidence that doing this makes these devices more secure because it does. It may have the additional side-effect of making repairs more difficult but if you want to make the claim that their motivation is not what they say it is then you have to provide the evidence for that.
It interesting that some people even when faced with such an articulate and easy to read article still resist understanding it so that their beliefs are not challenged.
I might be misunderstanding, but hasn't Helion already built prototype reactors, that do produce energy through fusion?

I'd venture to say most consumers won't know of this new limitation if previous to now they have used 3rd party repair shops. Does anyone know how much an "authorized" screen repair costs vs. an "unauthorized" one previous to this model?
I'd suspect based on SPJ's previous comments that it would be a strict statically-typed pure functional language but it probably depends on what amount of control he has on fun/research vs utility to Epic.

> That is certainly a factor, and there is also an emphasis more on the mathematical proofs of algorithms than applications in such courses.

Proofs are great if you learn to write your own, but courses mostly just wants you to memorize proofs which isn't terribly useful. If your tests has a lot of problems where you need to write your own proofs then it is a pretty good course, but the normal case is that the test wants you to write down proofs from memory.
> Rural voters work the same types of jobs that their urban counterparts do.

Really? I don't know many people working in the tech industry or high finance that live in suburbia or out in the country... DO YOU?

This is just an excuse to disenfranchise people who refuse to vote your way, and it's disgusting.
Indeed. My point was that the grid demand will go up immensely.
The problem is that it is usually presented as a "simple" solution. "Just eat less. Reduce your food intake until you're at a calorie deficit". For some people, that can mean eating three small, but satisfying meals a day. For others, it can mean eating extremely strict rations for only two meals a day, leaving the person constantly hungry and cranky. Then it becomes a will power issue, which as we all know is a function of brain energy reserves (right, we all know that, right?!). Throw in a mentally challenging job versus just phoning it in and it's really not actionable advice.
I'm convinced pedestrian safety and rush hour traffic would both improve at minimal cost if people just learned to respect simple Walk/Don't Walk signals, but yes, no one wants to give an inch.
Sure, but these celebrities completely outsourced their security to Apple because they trusted Apple.

"Apple knows best"... but clearly not because Apple should have had rate limiting for password login attempts to stop password brute-forcing attacks.

As for the far stronger commitment to privacy, I'm not so sure. Apple seems reluctant at times to patch zero-days which has been covered on the front page of HN.

> the common centrist opinion that 'the vaccine is good, everyone should get the vaccine, public vaccine mandates may be premature."

I think you've misstated the centrist opinion here. If it were really obvious that "the vaccine is good, everyone should get the vaccine", then public vaccine mandates would be the obvious choice. The reason public vaccine mandates are premature is that it is not obvious that everyone should get the vaccine. People's risk profiles vary widely, for both vaccines and for COVID. That's why it should be left to individual people and individual workplaces to strike the best balance for them, instead of a one-size-fits-all mandate for everybody.
