I don't know what you mean spirit. To me the spirit has always been "here's some code, do what you want with it" i.e. the exact opposite of what you're saying. I think you may have some missed expectations, I can't understand how you'd perceive that as being dominating or what you mean by someone being a jerk. Both you and I have the same access.

Edit: In my experience, pointing out how someone is a jerk doesn't really help in open source either. That usually just causes them to become defensive and only increases the hostility. Since the code is open it's much better to just fix it for yourself and not worry about what someone else thinks. That is, if you think the situation is truly unrecoverable. If not, then it's better to set aside your differences and work it out.
> The original claim was a qualified 'impeccable' - "the current ones with an impeccable record" - that is the original response was that the current covid vaccines are as safe as the other safe vaccines we have.

They absolutely are not "as safe", not by a long shot. The Myocarditis risk is unprecedented, as is the risk for GBS, as is the risk for VITT, which is a disease that didn't even exist before. Those are just the side-effects we acknowledge.

Beyond that, the sheer number of adverse event reports for the COVID vaccines dwarf the reports for all other vaccines combined. You can argue that surely most of those reports must be unrelated to vaccination, but that is true for all reports.

Now, before you move the goal post, I'm not saying that these risks outweigh the benefits. That becomes highly subjective and speculative as we move into the younger age brackets. In its approval papers, the FDA itself calculated scenarios in which the risk of vaccination outweighs the benefit for males under 18, we just choose not to pay attention to that.
Maybe. Buts its also as likely that this is the result of an automated copyright take-down notice.

"This announcement from the producers of this record contains important information for radio program directors, and is not for broadcast. The first cut on this record has been cross-format-focused for airplay success. As you well know, a record must break on radio in order to actually provide a living for the artists involved. Up until now, you've had to make these record-breaking decisions on your own, relying only on perplexing intangibilities like 'taste' and 'intuition', but now there's a better way. The cut that follows is the product of newly-developed compositional techniques, based on state-of-the-art marketing analysis technology. This cut has been analytically designed to break on radio."

This is interesting to me. I actually left Chase a few years ago over a very similar issue: their statement PDFs would show up blank in all the PDF readers I tested. After contacting support and being told that the only option was for me to install the latest Adobe Acrobat Reader, I told them to close my account.

I never even thought about the accessibility requirements. I am sure that relying on PDF features that only the latest Acrobat supports hurts a lot of people on that front too (unless Acrobat happens to be the most accessible of readers?)

> All of the evidence for wage discrepancies between male and female is due largely to women's role of motherhood.

Citation needed. It's PART of the discrepancy, but the evidence is far from conclusive. Even the link you pasted shows otherwise. Women without children still peak at 90% of relative wages to men without children, which themselves are lower than wages of fathers (presumably because being in a stable relationship allows a working father to focus on their career with someone taking care of the home)
"forcing women back into work" - I think it is simply a matter of money, not forcing. If you can afford it, you take the time off, if not, you go back to work.

I wish there was some way to look at the last N notifications, see what apps generated them, etc.

My biggest pet peeve right now is that my iPhone bongs when charging. Not when the charger is plugged or unplugged (its a different sound). It seems to happen when the charge passes 20% and then again when it passes 80%. But there is never a notification on screen, just a sound. Googling for this is impossible, since you wind up with a million questions about the sound the phone makes when a charger is plugged in.

Hey John, I'm sorry for answering this late. I haven't figured out a way to get notified about replies to my comments so here I am, backtracking what I have commented within the last few days. Sorry!

I'm referring to issues on open source projects hosted on GitLab.com so I think what this is about is out of your scope in some way? Also I've noticed that my initial comment is probably biased heavily by the projects I tend to follow on GitHub and GitLab. Gigantic projects (e.g. Inkscape vs. PyTorch) aren't different for me due to the active communities and after a second thought I have to admit that a lot of projects I follow and software I work with (PyTorch, Tensorflow as well as smaller ones like Potree, pyAIS, MIDI2LR) seem to live on GitHub. That's how some projects I did end up being on GitHub as well. On the other side me and my working group believe in Open Source so larger projects tend to end up on GitLab.

I'm not even sure if it helps but I didn't want to leave it "unanswered".

I dont get still how much optimization was done for the Snowflake TPC-DS power run. This is what I am seeing so far and what i am foggy on -

DB1.Databricks generated the TPC-DS datasets from TPC-DS kit before time started.
Databricks starts time then generated all queries. Then Databricks loaded from CSV to Delta format (also some delta tables were partitioned delta tables by date) and also computed statistics. Then all of the queries are executed 1-99 for TPCDS 100TB

SF1. Databricks generated the TPC-DS datasets from TPC-DS kit before time started. Databricks starts time then generated all queries. Then load from S3 to Snowflake tables by - (i'm not sure about these next parts) - creating external stages and then "copy into" statements I guess? Or maybe just using copy into from an s3 bucket, that part doesnt matter much. But its not clear did they also allow target tables to be partitioned/clustering keys at all? Then all of the queries are executed 1-99 for TPCDS 100TB

Its just hard to say exactly what "They were not allowed to apply any optimizations that would require deep understanding of the dataset or queries (as done in the Snowflake pre-baked dataset, with additional clustering columns)" means exactly. Like what does that exactly mean. At a glance though, this looks very impressive for Databricks, but just want to be sure before I submit to an opinion.
I think there's a number of people who've said that they've lost trust in Google and that's pretty much the sum of it and why I felt like I needed to write up the post.

For me, there are three sets of people that I work with: Developers, Engineers in Chrome and Engineers on other browsers. Projects like Compat 2021 are super important to me to the point that if another browser vendor doesn't trust that we are working and pushing together then the project just won't succeed. If the partner browser (Safari in this question) doesn't trust the data we present, then the ecosystem won't trust the data or project. If the ecosystem doesn't trust data then the browser teams won't trust the project etc.

So even if it was just a small change in the number, it's trust all the way down.
> Your question: "Why should mothers take care of infants?"

Admittedly, you can't read properly, because that's not a question I asked.

> Admittedly, it is very difficult to have this conversation when some people hold axiomatically that men and women are biologically interchangeable.

Speak for yourself if you want to introduce straw men in the discourse; no one else did. Here we adults are talking about participation in society in equal conditions for all humans, irrespective of debilitating conditions that may temporarily affect them, whether due to illness or strenuous exertion.

Excluding half of the human kind from the social sphere because some of them have a higher biological burden in reproduction is anything but a libertarian ideal. Having men participating in equal terms in the responsibility and joy of raising their children should be seen as a right as well as an obligation. A society that is unable to guarantee that right and claim that duty is a society that has lost its way.
It would seem to be more useful to connect more than just Chile and China (greater diversity of buyers and sellers of electricity), but maybe if China plans to consume the entirety of the cable's capacity, maybe a single point-to-point link actually does make the most sense in this case.

On the other hand, it's possible the cable will be under-utilized for half the day: when it's night time in Chile, they could buy power back from China, but will China have enough surplus? And is there enough demand in Chile (or its neighbors) to buy that much power?
What? No. Not if people used those features and found them valuable.

I'm not sure I understand - do you mean these suggestions are placed there by Twitter to deligitimize the original tweet [who, in that case, would have a valid complaint but is being maligned by association with the addition of "crank stuff"] ?

Or are you saying the original tweet is from a crank and the placement by twitter of additional "crank stuff" is proof of the crank label?

BTW when I view the tweet (also not logged in), I got no suggestions at all, so Twitter are presenting it in a different way to different visitors (i.e. you and me for sure). Perhaps you were part of an A-B test?

> see the cool jobs in 3D graphics, in distributed systems, in machine learning, or other "hard computer science" fields, and it feels like I will never be qualified without a graduate degree.

I have a good BS in CS, and did some interesting things in my career. At 40, the jobs that you list would also be hard for me to get.

IMO: Only get the degree if you want the experience of being a student again. There's no guarantee that a degree will get you a job in that field.

Edit: One of the risks in our field is that the more specialized you are, the market narrows for your job opportunities. You could find that you have a fancy degree, only a few places you can use it, and for some unfair reason they won't hire you.
The book Born to Run by Christopher McDougall should probably also be mentioned here. It has this theory as one of it's central premises.

Message C: there's one true way to grasp at straws.
Yea, the mistake encountered by the OP is that they were approaching the Time Machine UI with the intent of "I want to back up some folders".

The TM UI is solely about recovery. It backs up "everything" not on the "skip list". And out of the box it defaults to just the system drive (vs the system and external drives).

And that's an interesting facet here. This is a case of going in to a bookstore and scanning up and down the shelves and not finding what you want, and being frustrated, because you don't realize that you're simply in the wrong section. The TM UI in this case was frustrating because it had no options to do what the person wanted to do. And by design, it would not do what they wanted to do.

It's not a UI fault of TM per se, specifically this aspect of the TM experience. TM excels at full drive recovery, and recovering "a few, select" files. In the middle, it's not so good.

It's worked great for me. I've recovered from it several times, both entire systems and a few files. I use it solely on my main drive, and I use BackBlaze for the entirety of it all as a hat tip to offsite DR.

Over the years, I've lost a couple of TM volumes to strange corruption. Not that much of a crisis, I just reset it and start over.

>Part of it is the feeling that I'll have to defend my lack of credentials for the rest of my career

Your feeling is, IMO misguided. Ok, some employers will be shortsighted, but the ones where you'll have a fulfilling career recognize that the person that taught themselves has proven that they can learn something new without explicit guidance, and had the grit to see it through themselves.
This is something that freshly minted grads have yet to prove.

Don't get me wrong, I found my degree useful personally, it helps to have an education programme map out your unknown unknowns and turn them at into known knowns.

When hiring, with computer science graduates, I know that they at least know certain things (with a little prodding), but I don't yet know their capacity for learning new things unguided.

For non-graduates, I might need a little more time when hiring to figure out what they do know (if they're new to the industry), but when they can demonstrate skills I know they have capacity to learn for themselves.

It's not that it's better or worse to have the degree, it's just different, but some of the differences are to your advantage.
No idea about ø but æ is used (very rarely, to be fair) in French. Famously, it's used in the name Lætitia. We enjoy having characters that are important but comparatively rare, such as ù, which has a key of its own in the French keyboard even though it is used in a single word, "où" (meaning where), to differentiate it from "ou" (meaning or). I've always felt the key might as well say "où" on it :-)
Doesn't this require a bachelors degree though?
imo it's censorship to the degree that seeing a ratio does explicitly or implicitly set a specific context to a video. For example, say we have a government published video for an initiative that is incredibly unpopular. However, by masking the actual dissent, all you see is one side of the equation, not allowing you as a citizen to easily see how contentious / controversial something that could directly affect your life really is. It's all about controlling dissent imo, there's no real reason to hide this otherwise.

As such, yeah HN does only show up/downvote ratios like you are claiming. However, the scale is completely different between here and YT, which is a primary source of information for many people nowadays.

Edit - To further elaborate, with the same example, imagine that not only is the dislike ratio masking the actual dissent, but other companies and platforms are collaborating on a truth, and discussion to the contrary cannot be discussed on their platform. This is what is literally happening, you have to be blind to not see it at this point. Government published videos are having their ratios hidden, anything that is counter to the decided narrative is being automatically flagged by AIs on FB/Twitter to throw "warnings" up. This is the nature of the current web right now and you really should acknowledge the tightening of the grip that these companies are doing over the years.

I did not argue that it was, I meant that the counter argument of the person I was replying to was moot. Vulnerable people stay vulnerable and those laws are just basically just cosmetic.

> Regardless of any social security net, you can still be bullied or manipulated into yielding your free time.

Yes, but I am old fashioned and that's where I break from some of the takes in thread. If you can say no, then it's your responsibility to say no. If you are bullied at work or manipulated while having a social net and you choose to endure then I think the responsibility lies with you as you make no effort to improve your situation.

Now my last point is entirely an opinion based on my values, I can recognize that, but I hope it clears up why I believe in a social net that prevents abuse while also opposing laws like the one discussed.

Is the opportunity cost of not having a degree in the field of your choice higher than the opportunity potential of having the one in the field you want to have a career in? Do you enjoy working underneath younger employees with less experience who are above you simply because they have a degree? It's simply harder to get into those interesting parts of computing without that piece of paper, and if you're going to put in the work to be on the same footing as those who are credentialed, you might as well get the credential to go along with it. At that point, you'll have erased the negative stigma you feel you have, and also know that any future failures to get where you want to go are not based on your lack of education. Knowing that it really IS about you is a cool piece of enlightenment that a lot of people aren't able to grok.
There are very few jobs in software* that you can’t get without a bachelors or masters. There are a quite small number of semi-research software jobs that you practically need a PhD for. That means you are looking at a decade and there’s no guarantee what’s hot now will be hot then.
