Great, get a big bag then.
I think that is capitalism at work. When companies shop for the lowest price vendor, that's rewarded. When employees do it, it's establishing the market rate for their skills - like it or not, people will get offers for what they are worth - no more, no less.

A policy like this will force your team to get very clear on the value of the work and what they are willing to pay, relative to the type of candidate you will hire to do the job. Most people like to over-hire (we're looking for someone who has done this specific thing for at least 2-3, but more like 3-5 years. If you want to over-hire, you are going to have to over pay. Realistically, you'll have to decide whether or not you really need to over hire for specific experience, or what you really need is someone capable of working at scale, who can read open-source documentation and figure out how to learn new software packages, with the assistance of Google.

Or, you can do what FAANG does and over pay for the top talent, even though many of those folks write relatively trivial code.

Universally? There are always exceptions. But plenty do, just like with everybody else.

I've seen them, for example, working as ticket takers in movie theaters. Nothing wrong with that, and it's a job that still needs doing.

> standard unit of scientific knowledge: "the peer-reviewed publication"

I think part of the problem with shown with the replication crisis, even though it's less in physics, points to an issue with that being the "standard unit" although. Science, like a lot of the world today, "waste enormous potential, mainly in the causes of legibility and standardization" as the author said. A lot of science busywork is subject to goodharts law. When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure.

The 'normal' matter is 5% of the universe, do we need to know what the other 95% is? Do we need working nuclear fusion? Etc.
Law is an interesting example, cuz it has so many points of the non-static nature of all of this.

The number of people on the SC changes. The relative status of being a fancy defense lawyer changes. We could in the future set term limits to court judges. there are appelate courts (which are pretty close to the top)!. We could pack the court! We could also make it so that being a lawyer isn't actually prestigious, as a society. We could also stop just choosing people from Harvard & Yale.

There are so many choices as a society about what is done, and how many people are or are not needed in certain roles, that the implicit premise in all of this (that the current state of things involve some static limits, _and_ that we have reached those limits right now, instead of 100 years ago or 100 years from now) doesn't stand.
Even if I agree that everybody in US elite political circles going through law school is extremely bizarre and bad, I don't think either argument presented in the article holds up.
Fascinating; how did your "open with current employer" conversations go? How did you present it? How did they react?

I know, I've had these issues with Word too. But Latex also has some problems. For example, inserting equations and referencing them requires you to _label_ them. I find it unnecessarily difficult to keep track of equation labels in my text. Wish there was a way to assign automatic labels to equations in a Latex document, in a way that they all get updated if you add or remove equations. I can do that in Word and it saves me lots of time.

> scripting/compiled is blurred

“scripting” is an application domain, and a scripting language is one focussed on that domain (and, yes, its a domain with blurry boundaries.)

“interpreted/compiled” is a (blurred, sure) implementation distinction.

scripting languages tend to be interpreted, but talking about scripting vs. compiled is conflating two different axes of description.

> but what's the big difference between permanent DST vs. Standard Time?

From the Society for Research on Biological Rhythms:

> To answer this we need to understand how our body clock works. We each have an internal clock, or circadian rhythm, which works to align your body rhythms with the 24-hour cycle of sunlight and darkness that we experience living on Earth. The light that you are exposed to each day travels through your eyes and signals your brain to set your clock to help you stay awake during the day and sleep at night. It’s the timing of these light signals that is most critical for keeping everything running, well, like clockwork. When you are exposed to the bright light of a sunrise in the morning, it helps your circadian rhythm wake you up. When you are exposed to bright light in the evening, however, it signals your body to stay awake, leading to later sleep and wake times.

> Biological rhythms are everywhere. The daily changes in sleep and wakefulness, annual bird migration, and the tidal variations in behavior of coastal animals: these are all examples of biological rhythms. The field of chronobiology studies these rhythms in living organisms and how they are tuned by cues from the outside world.
>
> Circadian rhythms (rhythms that repeat approximately every 24 hours) are the most prominent biological rhythms. Not only sleep and wakefulness are influenced by circadian rhythms, also many other bodily functions show a circadian rhythm, such as body temperature, the secretion of hormones, and metabolism, and organ function. These rhythms allow organisms to anticipate and adapt to cyclic changes in the environment that are caused by the daily rotation of the Earth on its axis.

That sounds like newbie developers wrote that and no DBAs were involved in checking the code, not a database design problem, you are throwing blame without knowing enough about the matter. If your string fit in a varchar, it makes absolutely no sense to change it to nvarchar because your query has unicode as input.

It's no substitute for a librarian, but I am interested in eventually trying out the Johnny.Decimal system [0] to build my own taxonomy based on what I use most often. (Basically choose 10 categories, and then subdivide those ten more times, by usage. These get numeric prefixes, to simplify navigation.) It's not for everyone, but the author says [1] he's used it for years.

Although rails alone is enough to carry ruby. I think there is likely just not enough reason to use ruby over python in most non web use cases.
They're referring to full stack as a single developer. As a team, you can each focus on your respective parts of an application. There are benefits to being a "full-stack" developer for smaller projects, such as understanding all the working bits without needing to communicate with others, but full-stack jobs don't seem to pay as well as a job within a specific scope like backend.
I don't think it's orthogonal though. You can argue which are the true goals of modern war, and I may find myself in agreement with you, but you can't convince people to support a war "for assets"; not unless you convince them those assets mean something to them, their culture, their religion, their patriotism, their way of life, something. So symbolism and the sense of the "group" (culture) remains very important.

Ask HNs are my favorite part of HN. It was a hassle for me to go through /new looking for just posted Ask HN threads.

Some of them are natural law types and some are definitely misanthropic but they are all opposed to central authority and hierarchy. The high concentration of wealth we see today seems to be met with Teo main responses by the more well read ancaps I know. They either view it as the result of government capture or in some cases the reward for finding a great idea first.
I think it’s a weak spot for them ideologically, personally.
the ACLU's challenge isn't that directly pointed at the existence of the court. It is pointed at saying a citizen's "free speech" right is involved in viewing the court's opinions. It was a stretch, and it failed.

The dissenting justices are making it about something the case was not specifically about, the consensus judges don't have absurd opinions either, they looked at what the case was specifically about (does the first amendment have anything to do with this) and said nah. The question wasn't "do other articles of the constitution force us to curbstomp this court out of existence", and if it was there would probably be a different result.

If people want a case about the FISC's constitutionality itself, then they need to make a case about that. This case wasn't that.

One thing to understand is that this case got so much support because it was the only case they could put their energy on. If there was another or better case, all the motions and "friends of the court" briefs would have gone to that better case. The other cases don't exist because people accept the narrative that there is a big boogeyman this secret court protects us from, and so its always a compromise to try to get "studies" and reviewability done. But the thing about compromises is that they're usually just a long way doing the wrong thing. The original idea was the "right" thing, and compromises are often just the wrong thing and a waste of time. This time, the compromise idea of "lets make up a bill of rights reason why we can review court opinions" failed.

I never regretted moving from Linux to Mac also a decade ago. Mac has been fairly smooth for me, still on a 2013 mbp that just needed a battery replacement. Linux, however, was pain, quite often.
Maybe they wouldn’t articulate it as speculation but that’s still what they are doing (even if they are living in the property). They are speculating that the value will not decrease, or that rents will increase. Otherwise they’d rent.

Find me one laptop with a trackpad that works as well as a MacBook and we can talk.

I use a MacBook trackpad to make diagrams, for 3D modeling using Blender and FreeCAD, to draw schematics and route PCBs with KiCAD, and whatever else you’d otherwise do with a mouse, and it just doesn’t get in the way.

Over the years, I’ve been forced to use work supplied top-end Thinkpads, HP, and Dell laptops and none come even close to even the trackpad of my long retired, lowly 2009 MacBook Air 11”.

I don’t really care whether I use macOS, Linux or Windows: they all run the same applications. I also don’t care about the price of a laptop: what does it matter that a tool that I use day in day out for years costs $1000 more?

I care that it’s usable.

MacBooks are usable for things I use them for. The other laptops are not.

Ah, thanks for clarifying my understanding of the "natural born citizen" rule. I was operating under this misconception due to the whole nonsensical birthplace drama around Obama's election, and I appreciate the nudge to read up on it.

> Japan actually has much narrower restrictions on who can become head of state than the US does. It just doesn't combine that role with the head of government.

Sure, fine, you can only be the Emperor of Japan by blood, just like you can only be "The Queen" (as recognized by the UK, Canada, and Australia) by blood. It's a ceremonial role, and I don't think it impacts my overall point.

License plate recognition edge AI camera RaspberryPi for smart city&community
Yes. Pretty much.

The reason why I'm chosing to store the files is the project they're part of. I don't need them otherwise. If the project is inactive or dead, I'll compress the folder into some archive and delete the folder.

If something is meant to be useful for multiple projects it either gets symlinked, or put into its own project.

Anyway, I'm not saying tagging as a primary categorization interface is not useful at all. It's just that it has limited applications where it would be definitely more useful than traditional filesystem hierarchy.
Well I did find some evidence in the linked article, albeit older evidence.

The CMake language has the same absence of syntax, and everything is a command as well - like assignments with set(). Oh, and all variables are strings, too like in Tcl. (In CMake, even lists of strings are strings. Don't ask.)

The CMake language was created in a haphazard way as well, with some other important problems that Tcl probably doesn't have.
Aircraft carriers move around quickly. No nation, not even China, has enough reconnaissance satellites to maintain continuous coverage. And the satellites aren't survivable; they will be the first casualties in any major conflict.

Targeting data can potentially also be linked from submarines or aircraft, but those are also vulnerable. There are many ways to break the kill chain. That's not to say that carriers are invulnerable; they can probably be knocked out eventually by a peer adversary who is willing to accept heavy losses.
Huh? The current situation in most places is be vaccinated or have a negative covid test to go to events with large crowds and wear a mask when indoors. Other than wearing a mask sometimes and showing my vaccine card at concerts life has gone completely back to normal.

The problem with the "personal risk assessment" argument is that you wear masks to protect other people, not yourself. This is a decision that must be made collectively for or against.
Another good reason to invest in distributed power. Buy your own solar panels, inverter, batteries, windmills, et al. Imagine if every home was responsible for it's own power generation. How quickly we would either stop using so much energy, or add capacity? Guy next door can't afford enough panels? Lend him some juice from the neighborhood until he can. Support local autonomy. Talk to your town.
See the comment I made to the sibling comment.

For a tl;dr, you can use the following to find files that have more than one tag:

find -L tags/tag1 tags/tag2 -xtype l | sort | uniq -d

The lesson here is that being able to use command-line tools makes up for perceived limitations of the filesystem model.

Edit: After testing, I found the following works great:

find -L tags/tag1 tags/tag2 -xtype l | xargs readlink -f | sort | uniq -d
I think there is less risk from the reviewer and publisher’s standpoint. It’s much easier for them to get behind an incremental change than one that upsets the paradigm. Even if the incremental step is built on a more fundamental error, there is still a lot of former research built in it as well so they aren’t sticking their necks out like if they were the first to approve one that challenges the status quo
Hierarchies vs tags has come up for me in my recent effort to scan and organize thousands of old family photos (100+ years old).

My main goal is to make the data as future proof as possible, in my mind that means going with some standard filesystem hierarchies but supplementing it with photo metadata using exiftool. I don't trust any tagging solution to be useable in 5+ years that isn't based on EXIF/XMP standards and that only really works for photos (and not all formats). While you can force write XMP standard metadata onto unsupported file types--there is a push to standardize XMP across all files--metadata support is far from standard across operating systems or tools.

For my purposes I have a folders with Ahnentafel numbers so they can be quickly found: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahnentafel
I do my best to organize photos into the family/generation that is most represented by the photo and then into "events" if possible.

I then use lightroom to tag the photos with as much information that I can, especially the names of the people in the photos.

This way I figure, even the least technical person can find photos from a specific family but with slightly more effort, they can also search for people across the folder hierarchy.
But.. what's wearing those diapers?
> If your data has a one-to-many relationship, then Document Database (NoSQL) is more appropriate.

Maybe. Probably not. But what happens when you want to query the inverse many-to-one relation? Unless your document store is effectively indexing these one-to-many relations as another document store with inverse relations (at which point you have an RDBMS regardless of what you call it), it’s probably going to be wildly inefficient.
They don’t need a tutorial for most devices, Windows doesn’t work as well out of box either and has tons of hacks to make it run better, so it’s not harder compared to the norm, it’s actually easier.

Besides it’s desktop Linux, it wasn’t “just works” for a long time but it’s that way if you do light research on a supported device, then everything works out of box. Linux is designed to support as much hardware as possible so what’s the purpose of buying more expensive hardware with less features if better hardware exists?

You don’t need a tutorial, mostly if not all everything out of box works on Linux for every laptop and desktop I used (I don’t buy hardware newer than a few years for price and compatibility reasons) and setup is easier since there’s (almost) no drivers (fuck you Nvidia). It’s just a meta key with a different logo if it bothers you just put a sticker over it. I’d never complain about extra keys or an extra sensor (that can be supported later) and I’m not sure why it’s a problem in the first place. The tutorial linked was just if you wanted coreboot.

The surface pro 3 I used had everything working out of box with Ubuntu (Gnome was great on touchscreen). It was very clean. I also love OSX, it is just like Linux for the most part except I can use more software and use the same CLI stuff I’d use on Linux. I don’t care to install it over OSX on a MacBook, is there something you find lacking on it?
Yes, and to be perfectly clear don't have a minimum length (either empty or nullable) and make it mutable, in any case where you're doing some form of soft identification (e.g. "Hi, $NAME, here is your reservation" or "I am calling from $COMPANY, may I speak with $NAME?")

Also, tell me what the purpose you're using my name for, e.g. "Name as it appears on your payment card/passport/ID/SSN" helps tremendously in resolving ambiguity.

Also, consider not asking for a name at all unless there's actually a good reason.

We can doubt that the goal is to add value, and think it is simply to give some top-down structure that makes sense to the people using it. I admit that when I went into the stacks to find the book I was looking tor, browsing around on nearby shelves often led to additional good finds. These were topologically near. I think that would be the case for most good grouping schemes, though the choices may change.

Times have changes, the things that make sense have changed in various ways. At least it still organizes shelves.
This is what I’m curious about. Articles like this equate long-term Covid uncertainty with long-term vaccine uncertainty, which seems like utter bunk.
