Of course it is related to "right to repair" advocacy. This is the basic function of a company listening to feedback and making changes. As long as it doesn't conflict with the core values of the company, there is no reason to not add this. I love how this empowers individuals to repair themselves, or develop the skills to do this for friends, family and eventually open a shop in their local community. Apple is using their powerful iPhone economy to create local commerce. Pretty cool.

If there's one thing I've learned over and over during this pandemic, it is that "do your own research" is immediately followed by a train of bullshit that only demonstrates extreme susceptibility to confirmation bias.

>and you are now essentially always at work

I suppose it's easier said than done, but the healthiest thing I did for myself in the transition to WFH during the pandemic was to set up and maintain appropriate boundaries between myself and work.

I'm done at 3:30. If you contact me after 3:30 I'm either ignoring the message until I'm "at work" the next morning, or I'm writing my time up as billable hours.

I've never been questioned on it, and the idea of muting my phone or leaving it in another room provides a mental break that helps with everything
So what. That was a problem you had to solve, imagine how helpless you’d feel if you had it with no regex available. Matching non-parenthesis or newline for two lines (prefix and suffix unrestricted) it is. Idk if it took half an hour or more to implement that in python, js or (god forbid) a low level language. You probably made it in less than a minute. And nobody would take their time to read a page of .substr(i, -(j-i)-1) two days later either.
> Here you have a ton of studies claiming to have found benefit

Maybe the real reason we aren't seeing more trials being funded is that scientists are looking at these early studies and what we already know of the drug and concluding that it's not an avenue worth pursuing? (Especially when we already have several proven vaccines in place).

By way of analogy are you going to invest your time to build a web framework for Cobol running on mainframes? I'm sure it's been done, but it's probably not worth your time to build one as we already have many high quality web frameworks available.
I'm puzzled what you mean by this. Do you mean it's not easily editable by non-engineers?

Independent repair shops: Apple won't sell us parts so you have to pay them $69 for a repair we could do for $49 or you could do yourself for $20 because it's really $20 in parts and $29 in labor.

Apple: Okay, here's the part you wanted, you can have it for $59 or have us do it for $69. No need for any new laws.

Turn off that chat thing when you need to focus. Skip meetings where you neither will learn nor can contribute a unique perspectives. Turn the machine off when the workday is over to deal with the WFH blurriness. Push back on murky requirements.

Yes, it's hard, and it's scary. And I fully ack that in some companies, this would be career-limiting moves. If that's the case, you need to decide how much you want to work for them vs. going somewhere that actually lets you work as a dev.

You've never been near a lab environment clearly. Python is a dominant language in university labs and runs of lot more real-time systems than you think. Grad students rarely have industry experience and don't necessarily have the know-how to write C code effectively, so it's a question of resources and ecosystem. Numpy, matplotlib, pandas, scikit, TensorFlow, etc. are all huge draws for the scientific and ML communities.
Having worked with several large commercial monorepos including Google's I can recall using stacked changes a few times but I don't remember them being the secret sauce by any means. They were more of an edge case.

Great idea.
And because you need many constants that often change in such a configuration file you could put that all in another file and include that in the 'real' configuration file. Why not call that, hmm, `config_config.txt`. But as plain text is a bit hard to parse, we could give that file some structure, so that it is like, well, another markup language, just without markup and easier to read and write.
My usual workflow to rebase a stacked set of feature branches off of main is:

git checkout main
git pull
git checkout feature-branch-1
git rebase -i -
git checkout feature-branch-2
git rebase -i -
...

There's most likely a more efficient way to do this, but I find that referring to the most recently checked-out branch with a single hyphen is a lesser-known feature, so perhaps it will be helpful :)
Reading the replies it seems like this law may have incentivized some companies to make themselves extremely difficult to contact in the first place. How does the law deal with this?

> I'm not sure the market exists for all journalists to be as highly qualified as Scott

I'm not sure we need as many journalists as we currently have. Do we really need another rehashing of the latest culture war nonsense? If you strip out all of these pseudo-journalists and consider only journalists covering real facts and in-depth analysis, that's a considerably smaller group that could plausibly consist of a number of Scotts.
A few jobs ago I put a PR in a few days into our two-week sprint. Our team of purportedly full-stack developers was actually a team of two front-end and seven back-end developers which meant that the Jira tasks were written such that tasks in the same sprint were all interdependent on one another. This always resulted in long cycle times and a mad rush to get everything merged the day before sprint review. This was a bit painful as our team lead was obsessed with Git commit history and required branches to be rebased onto the main branch, so every PR that got merged ahead of yours meant that you had to immediately jump in and rebase yours to make it eligible for review again.

The PR that I put in before everybody else's was summarily ignored because everybody was busy getting their own stuff in. I spent cram day rebasing my PR at least a half-dozen times as commits flew into the main branch. A few minutes before cut-off I asked in a team call if I could get a review; my team lead told me that there was no time and that it would have to wait.

Needless to say I've since found a team that does the opposite (reviews each others' code in a timely and constructive manner). I really enjoy working with people that care about delivering value and helping others... it's vastly improved my job satisfaction.

Nifty little site! Though I don't think it's a great 'learning' tool. I would love if it presented multiple ways of achieving the same layout (EG legacy, flex, grid), so you could compare and see which is best.

For example, the 'holy grail' layout used to be done using tables. Then we moved away from tables, to using divs with clearfix and other positioning hacks. I lean heavily on flex these days - but they only show grid. I think it would be interesting to see the reason why grid was picked, by comparing it to other methods - so you can show off how clean the implementation is by contrast.
If growing up (and currently living) in the rural American south has taught me anything, everyone is high on something. From my mother taking xanax to balance out the overwhelming amount of volunteer work stress she has from church, friends smoking/drinking away the boredom after a long day of oilfield work, or my weed habit for settling down my mind after a long day at the computer.
I mean, it could always do that. You can connect a ton of drives over USB (I think the device limit is 127).

The question when it comes to RPi-powered NASes is whether it can do that well and the answer is as everyone expected: not really; the CPU is the bottleneck regardless of the underlying interface the drives connect over.

The difficulty cancelling Economist one time put me off from subscribing to a paper ever since. I don't get it, their content is good, let me cancel easily and I'll come back easily. How desperate are those services that they implement measures like that, counting on people to not follow through the cancellation process, forgetting to cancel altogether, etc. And then doing the absolute minimum necessary, e.g. offering the easy cancel button for California residents only because they have to. It'll be the same with this piece of legislation. Sure they'll do it for US residents but they'll continue to pull the same crap for us here in Canada and elsewhere.
They deserve to go out of business in my opinion and I hope they do.

it is, it's just not exposed well. in git create two branches stacked on top of each other, and then in the PR creation window, the first PR goes from master to branch-1 as normal. Then create a second PR for branch-1 to branch-2. it's a bit of futzing around with git and GitHub but it's there/works without another tool. Or you could just use the tool, up to you.

Yes, but it does use Edge Protocol. That's why some HN users are upset. I don't think it's an overreaction, and you seem to agree that it's wrong.

Responding to your edit: If Microsoft creates a new type of page that works well in Edge but not other browsers, they can make a new protocol for it and allow other browser to support the protocol if they want to. In fact that's exactly what happened here: Microsoft added a new protocol, Firefox said "we support this new protocol with full performance and functionality, so we should be able to open it".
Hey, random question from someone who isn't a parent, do you have any read on whether home 3D printed legos are cool to kids? I guess it's hard to match the look and 3D print the majority of your pieces while buying special boxed sets that your child wants.

I walked past a lot of Legos last week and I was thinking "these are very cool, but wow my parents spent so much money on legos". I also used to paint some of the Games Workshop Warhammer figurines in my teens. If I ever had the urge to get back into something like Legos or figurines later in life, I think I'd definitely go the 3D printing route.
Well now I'm definitely not going to eat any of their gross fake meat.

Why? Can't a company make it so that there's a "cancel contract" method? I am not an Ethereum expert, I just don't understand, to be clear.

I'm sure this is far more basic than what you know how to do, but this seems pretty simple to add a "cancel contract" method that seems like it'd meet the requirement to be as easy to cancel as it was to set up. The account status seems like they can at any time just read it off the smart contract, they already do for balance monitoring each month in this example.

Supercomputers can be differentiated from server farms in two ways:

1. Performance measured in FLOP's. Think supercomputers as gigantic graphics cards. The bandwidth between the nodes is incredible. Network topology is different.

2. Problem type is one with lots of interaction between partial solutions.

3. Problem solving capability instead of problem solving capacity.

Supercomputer design is a whole system design for the capability to solve one huge problem in a short time. With just a 'bunch of servers,' you add more servers and get more capacity to solve a larger number of limited-sized problems.

The supercomputer has usually the maximum problem size level and every aspect of the system is optimized and balanced together to reach that maximum. Even if the supercomputer is sold in pieces and can be extended, extensions scale only towards this maximum design where the capability peaks. Installing two maxed-out supercomputers side-by-side does not double the capability for most problems.

This way supercomputer is like a single computer. You can add components until you reach the limits. If you need a bigger computer to solve bigger problems, you build a bigger supercomputer from scratch.

Youtube algorithms are truly weird. I have a YT account with, I think, 3 or 4 subscribers and maybe a dozen or two views on the 10-20 videos I ever uploaded. I basically use YT to upload things that I want to share with some close friends.

Then, earlier this year, one of my videos suddenly skyrocketed[1]. It was an old video, 10 years or so, and it only consisted of one 10 second scene of a movie that I found funny at that time, and that I shared with a couple friends. It had about 50 views until march.

Then, it suddenly exploded, and now that video has just short of 1 million views, with a peak of ~60k or so per day.

I have absolutely no idea what crazy algorithm suddenly started recommending a 10-year-old video that is nothing more than a 10s snippet from a hollywood movie to millions and millions of people around the world.

The most interesting part (for me) was the psychological effect this had on me. First, my phone started sending notifications like crazy (I turned them off pretty quickly). That changed into a daily morning-routine of "let's see how many people watched the video this night"... Then, when the new followers came (I gained a couple hundred during that time) I had a feeling of guilt because I think they somehow "expect" similar clips from me from now on, and I would be letting them down (of course, totally irrational, I could care less of what some random people expect from me). Then I started researching how much revenue I could have gained from that if that were a "real" video with original content and ads thrown in.....

It was a wild ride :-D
