They also seem to work very long hours with long commutes and get few vacations. When I see that the average cost of a house in Cupertino is 2.5 million dollars for example, I would imagine most of those Apple engineers live far away.

No, you can copy the timestamp as well.
Arm is a British company and their name comes from their "Acorn RISC Machine".

In British English, they tend to only capitalize the first letter of an acronym if it's read as a word. So for example the British Broadcasting Corporation is the "BBC" (pronounced B-B-C), but the North Atlantic Treaty Organization is "Nato", and the US National Aeronautics and Space Agency is "Nasa".

At this point the formal name of the company is "Arm Ltd" even though their processors still go by "ARM".
> It's even simpler to make artificial neurons vote for a circle center.

Is it?

It's not conceptually simpler: people can more easily imagine circles around points converging to a center, so they can also put that idea into code more easily.

> you can apply the method to other shapes as well.

Yes you can. Read about Hough.

I just presented the one that is the most enlightening.

I may be biased against neural network approaches and their likes, because I see them as black boxes with failure modes that are hard to predict or work around: I prefer what I can understand and explain, and unfortunately, it seems at odd with the current demographics of ML (cf https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27361812 ) who has no clue about what makes these black boxes tick, sometimes even after they get a PhD in the dark art of tweaking black boxes.
I’m not clear what the cause or solution to these problems are.

That's what the article is about. Surely the causes and solutions are obvious?! How is this a mystery? The residents voted for that situation!
Is it to spare keystrokes in method definition, or rather, in method invocation?

Your second definition reads that `with_longer_parameters` is a keyword argument with no default.

Still, you've illustrated the keystroke savings with your choice of parameter names :-)
There are absolutely reasons not to switch to Desktop Linux, but support for weird custom configs is a reason to use Linux. Xmonad and other tiling window managers have been ported to back to windows and os x, they're so important to users. Someone's already mentioned how to use xmodmap to get global custom key bindings.

Now, whether it's worth it to you, who has already learned autohotkey's syntax, to move to Linux, I can't say. Linux is a game of differently confusing config files from Windows and sometimes it's about the devil you know vs the one you don't.
I'm in BFE Indiana and to define it as "spotty" this morning would be... excessively polite.
I actually moved away from desktop.

Lightweight web apps mostly in python (Flask).

Slack apps / bots with a bunch of commands (backend does lookups, generates PDFs)

People don't fully realize what we gave up dumping desktop development, you used to be able to build our nice biz specific crud apps (customers, projects, scheduling etc) using a bunch of tools. These things were usually darn fast if you were careful and you could make them very keyboard driven (ie, put the keyboard shortcuts on button labels etc).

... writing the code required to write the code needed to implement indexes is more fragile than letting the compiler do it for you, most likely. I maintain a reflect-based indexing implementation for in-memory data, and look forward to seeing what I can do with generics to get rid of reflect based overhead.
Yup. Same with shells. Sigils on variables are so we don't need to quote every argument/option on every command. And we don't want to quote our strings in the shell because different to other programming languages, shells are for interactive use and so string literals are far more frequent than variables.

Don’t hassle CS agents in a situation like this. S/he was trying to help. Obviously the CS agent can’t go out and fix cables or reboot servers or do whatever needs to be done to fix it. But there is a chance that the customer will be better off knowing there is the hotspot option.
You also can't use the search feature unless you add it as a browser extension. Yeah... no thank you.
I visited SF a few weeks ago. I went to a Safeway and the entire aisle where the toothbrushes were located was behind locked see-through panels. Other aisles weren’t as bad. It was rather disorienting.

Another patron and I had to be escorted around the store so we could complete our short shopping lists.

I didn’t read the article so I can’t compare but I’ve never seen a store lock up that much of their product.

I highly doubt that any such feature is introduced to save keystrokes.

If you want to save keystrokes, Ruby is probably not your language. And you also really need to invest some time in your editor/IDE.

The sugar is that it removes redundancy and adds DRY:

> Every piece of knowledge must have a single, unambiguous, authoritative representation within a system.

Now, the value for DRY is minimal here: `referer_acceptence_header: referrer_acceptance_header` is quite easy to spot (and there too: if these are your bugs, you probably need to invest some time in your editor/IDE), but avoiding it alltogether in the language is always nice.

The fact that something is or isn't one of a kind doesn't make it valuable though. If value only came from the art itself then whether something was one of a kind shouldn't matter - especially so if a reproduction is close enough that they are visually identical. For expensive paintings the value of the painting is completely separate from the art itself - I think we can agree that a Picasso would sell for a lot less if you didn't tell people it was painted by Picasso. That's despite the fact that who painted something is not a physical aspect of the painting.

An NFT is basically like a 'certificate of authenticity' - whether you think it's BS or not depends entirely on who issued it. A item that includes such a certificate from a known reputable source may be extremely valuable to a collector, where-as the regular item may be practically worthless, and that can be true even if nobody can tell the items apart. At the same time, John Doe down the street signing 'certificates of authenticity' doesn't provide any value because nobody cares who John Doe is, in the same way that some random person signing an NFT doesn't automatically make it worth anything since anybody else can just come along an do the same. But if the author of an artwork came by and produced an NFT of it, that's unique in a way that people may care about.

The author's posts on Django are always worth reading. They're way more detailed than the run-of-the-mill rehash of the Django documentation that most blogs contain and there's always a nugget of "I never knew that" in them.
Even then, it would be better phrased as a tradeoff. What's the downside of putting in the database? I'd guess it makes horizontally scaling harder, and it's less portable to other database vendors. Is there an upside, like you've got stronger data security guarantees?
> Any time “science” supports large corporations making a lot of money, you should look more carefully.

Near the end of this conversation piece, that point is noted:

“The CTR [Council for Tobacco Research] would say, “Publish whatever you want.” But the bias was built in to the selection of problems in the first place. And that’s a general principle that historians and philosophers need to pay more attention to: Problem selection and funding shape what kind of science gets done. One of the more general points about agnotology is that there are infinitely many things you might know, and that whatever in fact becomes known is only a tiny sliver of what might be known — infinitesimal really. What this means is that when you’re shining a light on something, almost everything else remains in the dark. And sometimes that darkness is deliberately kept dark; the darkness itself may be created, maintained, exaggerated, inflated, and reinforced, sometimes even by the very power of the light itself (think flashy fish lures or Donald Trump). I think there’s an assumption in a lot of thinking about science that there is some finite quantum of knowledge humans might acquire. Maybe we’ll never get it all, but at least we’re moving forward, vanquishing the darkness. But darkness has many friends, and often deep pockets as well. And darkness can easily grow as fast as (or faster than) the light. So it’s much more a constructive or organic metaphor that we need.”
Doesn't work like that. Overexposing (with the same light) means having worse SNR due to higher gain.

The choice to use typically terrible cameras in a proctoring system disregarding that it might work ever worse than normally for a subset of people is suspect, yes.
Heh, I saw this AFTER I posted this link:

Basically John Deere made their tractors impossible to repair without official parts, and we have now a harvest season + inflation, thus John Deere employees now hold all the cards, if they stop working people will literally starve without tractors to do the harvest, since repairing the tractors without their help is now impossible, thus they are strinking.
It doesn't say anything about prices... as far as I can see.
Fair enough. And using multiple upstream providers is of course a good idea.
For anyone else unfamiliar with the terms, the Global North/Global South are monikers used to describe the socioeconomic divides between countries. The North is European/American economies plus Russia, Australia, Israel, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea and Taiwan; the South is Central and South America, Africa, the Middle East, India/China, and Southeast Asia.

I don't believe anyone can time the market continually well. The book "Anti-Fragile" by Nicholas Taleb does a good job of illustrating the idea that you want a portfolio that will _increase_ by randomness. I do have a large percentage of the portfolio in anti-fragile areas (a type of hedging).

While I'm certain a crash will happen, it might be another year, which could have a ton of gains in it, or it could be tomorrow.

Could this be a generational issue?

I've met many pre-Apartheid white, South Africans who immigrated to London. And, wow, the racist shit they would say about black South Africans. Many found their racist attitude simply wouldn't fly in cosmopolitan London so they fled back to South Africa or Australia.

Of the younger generation many were too young to fully comprehend apartheid or denounce it entirely.

> Each country has its good and bad men (and women for that matter), and if you could do a census I can almost guarantee the distribution would follow the usual Bell curve.

South African apartheid was a giant state apparatus. It takes a lot of people contributing to uphold it. While no one likes to think they were in the bad guy group I'm thinking the bell curve is going to look like a slope given the testimony from T&R records.
> I'm curious why one wouldn't just move 100% into cash if you are expecting a crash. The S&P500 index fund would go down for a while in the case of a crash, right? I'm struggling with this now so any

If you knew exactly when the crash was going to happen, yes, that's what you should do. It's very hard to predict though, since you have to be accurate multiple times:

(1) When the crash starts
(2) How long it's going to last
(3) Whether it's inflationary or deflationary

You could for example have a crash in real terms (inflationary), for example, where cash is worse than the market - let's say the market goes up 5%, but inflation runs at 15%: that's actually a drop of 10% in real value, but cash actually drops 15% in real value, so stocks are still "the better loser" in that case.

In a nominal (deflationary) crash, it is better to go to cash, but you still have problems (1) and (2) to deal with that make timing things very difficult. You could, for example have said in April 1998 that "there was going to be a crash in tech soon" - and you'd be right, but only after sitting on your hands through 2 more years of craziness and missing out on 150% more gains before the crash actually came. Most people wouldn't be able to handle that.
The metaverse will be built on closed protocols. Crypto is at odds with free bits.

both are trying to bring real world concepts into the digital.

they are at fundamental odds with the foundational tech and protocols of the current Internet.

people complain about Apple's "walled garden". Just watch what happens if the whole web3 is one big controlled ecosystem, pay for play. I can create bits out of thin air right now - I don't need to MINE them.

just insane how everything is going into hard reverse.

I also had an issue with not being able to wear glasses. It was my fourth Sans cert and never had the issue before. The proctor also was sabotaging me by saying I requested "Technical support" 5 times during the exam, each time the timer running and some dude distracting me, despite me telling him I have no tech issues and to let me continue my exam. They would spend 5 minutes verifying that I indeed had no issues and then leave...

Very unprofessional, if not illegal due to discrimination and even though it was one of Sans's entry level certs, I barely passed, versus 90 + on all of their advanced ones without these issues.

Their reasoning was "The rules say no facial obstructions, your glasses block your face.". They have to hire the dumbest people to do these proctors.

I've never had any issues with other proctoring services, and things like pearson for Comptia and Microsoft were actually enjoyable. With proctoru each proctor seems to find some issue and you have to argue with them since it's completely unreasonable.
Thank you for your question.

This is, in fact, not an assignment, but a variable binding that is highly optimizable by an execution engine. The let clause is part of the FLWOR expression, works in orchestration with for, where, group by, order by, count, return; the ability to bind variables while doing relational algebra is a feature that is often missed in SQL.

JSONiq is functional and, in its core (non scripting) version, does not allow modifying variable values.
North bay here. My Verizon cell service (calls + data) went down at the exact same time (10pm last night, for about 1-2 hours), and started working again at the same time Comcast came back online. Did that happen to anyone else? Felt like I was going crazy.
That one gets tricky if you can’t keep track of which emails you used where. I’m paranoid that I’ll break my password manager somehow and then won’t even know the email I used for my account. For something financial, that could be devastating.
Agreed to a degree

Indexing does not remove systematic risk as another commenter mentioned, but there are things one can do to help deal with timing, such as dollar-cost-averaging.

How do you know this is exactly what's happening right now? Do you work in the sec space or with tax authorities? I'm genuinely asking, as I'm a layperson in regards to these subjects, and, in my ignorance, I don't see the difference between that and, say, Counter Strike skins selling for 15k USD.

To my understanding, all these things leave simple 1-1 paper trails that can be followed later and lead to consequences, but I might certainly be wrong.

I'm trying to separate people who simply don't like cryptocurrencies and NFTs (which might be your case, I don't know) from actually informed thoughts about what's happening.

I guess we just have different reads on history. I don't think it's a mistake to view hard times as the default for most of history in most places. They were of course not constant and there are accounts of exceptionally hard times. But I think the background level of hardship for the common person throughout the world >1000 years ago would probably drive most people currently living in the modern first-world to catatonia or suicide.
I wonder if the rendering is a lie, or there are a small number of bedrooms that have private windows in them?

I think the main mistakes here are that he made the building bilaterally symmetrical and it should instead be along four quadrants. Additionally, there should be an atrium in the center providing additional windows for the middle of the building.

That many students sharing a single TV every evening is not going to work out, and if you want a 'study space' (which is psychologically healthy and strategic), you'll have to do it in the main entertainment area or leave the building.

Each 'house' at this size should have 2 public areas, and there should probably be one house at each corner, and one at each face, rather than 4 corners and 2 on the same face.
Humans see in 3d, and we use 3d cues from the world around us to assess everything. Taking these cues out of design is absolutely antihuman. And we know it's bad, especially for older populations, where nothing looks like a button or clickable, so folks click on things until something works.
I often move ID generation into the application layer (this also helps avoid things like enumeration attacks), and actually quite a lot of cool Postgres features blur that line a little bit. It's interesting to think sequences and other computational mechanisms in a DB, and whether they make architecting applications easier or harder. I don't have a strong opinion either way, but I'm interested in HN's opinion.

I'm dabbling in crypto for a few months now, and I don't quite understand the focus on XR in the "corporate idea" of the metaverse.

To me, the main selling point of the metaverse seemed to be an alternative economical space based on tokens which are implemented in a decentralized matter. Everything else seems to be fluff.
Continuing with the analogy you can own a rare baseball card of an all star player but many other people also own it. With NFT there is (usually) one and only one owner so it’s like there is only one card that have been produced. For instance check what they did with the NBA and dunks. They are selling short videos of every dunk. So there is only one possible owner of a dunk sold. That’s it. So only one guy own the one of the best dunk of Michael Jordan.
I read PCL about seven or eight years ago when I didn't have a lot of experience with programming.

I'll stop short of giving a recommendation or using the word "should", but ill give encouragement to consider using uuid's for keys. I have used them in several systems and have never had any issues with them, and they solve so many issues. The ability to generate a key on the client or on the server or in the database is great for one. And the fact that keys are unique not only in a table but in the system (or many systems) is a huge advantage.
Yep, see ArtBlocks, Deafbeef tokens for example.
Hey everyone, I’m Lior, part of the team that builds Openbase.com.
We thought of sharing our new product with you. It’s called dev.page and it’s an all-in-one developer page with all your info, projects and links.

Having spent the past couple of years working with developers, we’ve noticed developers have so many different online profiles nowadays: GitHub, GitLab, StackOverflow, LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, Medium, DEV, etc.
What we didn’t find, though, is a good place for developers to showcase their profiles, links, and information.
While there are link aggregators like Linktree and Bio Link, we felt they are geared more towards influencers on Instagram, and less towards developers.

To make dev.page easy to use for developers, we decided to start with GitHub signup, so you can get a page up and running quickly with some data from GitHub, then customize it later.

In your dev page, you can include the basic info you’d expect.
For your bio, we’ve included markdown support, so you can style it the way you’d like, or even copy parts of your GitHub README.
Most importantly, you can easily add links to your GitHub, GitLab, StackOverflow, LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Discord, DEV, Medium, and other profiles.

We’d love to hear your thoughts about dev.page and what we can do to improve it.
