They do not, they have capable and trusted standard libraries and it’s quite possible to build a web app in those other languages without any external dependencies whatsoever.

JS and its culture of small dependencies that do one thing but import 100 other things to do that thing is the root of the problem here.
I fear you may be overcomplicating the matter. If you want to measure an angle on the plane defined by two lines, simply form a circle of a radius one and take the ratio of the length of the arc at the angle to total circumference.

You can calculate the length of an arc associated to a triangle by simple comparison to a known angle such as the quarter angle and its products, this will allow you to finitely compute any rational angle. This is the conceptual basis for using arclengths.

To formalize this, you can define trigonometric functions now, and you can use them to introduce polar coordinates, and by translation of the intersection to the origin, show that you can calculate the angle for all real numbers by construction of a right angle triangle and now determine the sine as the ratio of two real numbers, etc...

It is wholly unnecessary to introduce logarithms. Yes they are isomorphic. They are also unnecessary. So are bivectors. Angles are perfectly well defined without anything but basic algebra and some geometry. You really just need an extensible definition of the trigonometric functions to provide rotation and you've got yourself a perfectly sound definition.
Yes, almost always prefer reading to video. The exceptions are for things that are best explained with a physical demonstration, i.e. how-to type stuff.
The nice thing about WebAudio is that it has spatial audio built into it. It’s really pretty trivial to implement basic spatialisation. That said you generally want a fiddly layer of manual management on top.

The issue with research and the internet can be boiled down to singular dimissive comments like this. You see them especially a lot on Reddit.

This is a prospective cohort study - it is not meant to cover all limitations. Every scientific study will have strength and weaknesses, an RCT won't ever have 350 000 participants. Studies with large sample sizes almost always have to resort to either self reporting or interviews in order to collect at least some of the data.

You're not meant to take an individual study's results as the truth - it's the overall body of research that's important. When you see the same or very similar results from studies with varying study designs from different populations done by different researchers with different methods the results become more credible.

Though this specific study is notable as the effect size is quite large, the bias from self reported coffee or tea intake would have to be quite large itself to remove it.

And with regards to coffee and tea consumption and research, this is a pretty well researched area already, and the general consenus is that consuming tea or coffee does have health benefits.

2007 Agee in Counterpunch, "The Descent of the US; the Rise of Latin America"

https://web.archive.org/web/20070317212930/https://www.count...

I heard Agee talk (not a lecture) to students for an hour at a college in 1987. Far from hyperbolic, he was a decent, square-shooter personality. I distinctly recall his saying (paraphrase) that 'they are planning to turn the US into another Latin America'. I remember that because it kept explaining a lot of what was going on. And still does.

Technically the author's description of how Lucene's ranking works is accurate.

But the catch is that Lucene's default "vector space model" treats each document as a very high-dimensional vector, where the components are the words in the document (scaled using tf-idf). Under this definition, "similarity" reduces to a normalized dot-product of the query vector and the document vector. So in practice, it does roughly what you want: documents that match more query words end up getting more non-zero terms in their similarity score, which leads to a higher ranking.
Wow, that cookie prompt had such a dark pattern that it destroyed any credibility. I had to scroll down past multiple feet of blank space to get to the "accept my cookie choices" button, while the "accept all cookies" was visible from the start. Very scummy.

Why does Netflix publish lists like these, but make it so hard to find objective ratings of their content? All I can see in their interface is lists of "recommended" and "trending" content, and a percentage rating of how similar things are to content I've already watched. I'm tired of having to watch a half hour of everything only to find out that it's a B-movie.

Very few non-corporate FOSS projects would have the funds to file a trademark, especially an international one considering one can be infringed from anywhere around the world. And time spent on filing would be time not advancing the actual project, unless a lawyer is hired, which makes it even more expensive.

Even fewer would have the resources to actually pursue legal action if the trademark is infringed upon.

This is probably not a realistic suggestion for all but a few hundred projects.

I paid £24 for 250g of Blue Mountain a few weeks ago. Unimpressed - it tasted like - er - coffee. I mean, it was like regular coffee, a bit smoother than usual.

So I've gone back to my touchstone brew: Harar Hyena (it's from the Harar region in Ethiopia; the "hyena" bit is because the town is famous for being infested with hyenas). It costs half as much. I was warned the first time I bought it that it's not to everyone's taste; well, it's certainly to mine. It's fruity and complex. I certainly wouldn't describe it as acidic.

I can't write tasting notes, I can't bear to be that pretentious; but The Spruce Eats says: "This flavor is often described as fruity and winey with a mocha note, medium acidity, and a full body."
You use a trusted standard library which has crypto functions (and lots of other helpers) and for small things you write your own.

Yes you can write your own things like session management, yes that is better than the entire web depending on a module for session management which depends on a module which depends on a module maintained by a bored teenager in Russia.

Please do check out other ecosystems, there is another way.
Essentially with Databricks making Delta open source, you can move away from Databricks to EMR or Presto (with their own optimizations) without incurring a data tax. You're also able to move between cloud providers at ease as data sits in low cost buckets.
Streamlabs is also almost exactly copying pages from the OBS project website:

https://twitter.com/StuV2/status/1460710778462482440

Nearly identical titles, nearly identical general page layout, similar graphics.

They even verbatim copied the user testimonial text.

My guess is that they're going to Google Adwords themselves to the top of every relevant google search, and trick even people who have been to the correct OBS Project site into thinking "oh yeah, this is it, I'm in the right place!" and downloading streamlabs-obs.

The OBS pages are copyrighted, so it seems to me like OBS Project should be able to hit Streamlabs' web providers with some DMCA complaints.

I know HN is usually skeptical of anything cryptocurrency/blockchain related, and I am too. But as weird as it sounds, I think blockchain might actually be the solution here.

The problem with dependency auditing is it's a lot of work. And it's also duplicate work. What you'd really like to know is whether the dependency you're considering has already been audited by someone you can trust.

Ideally someone with skin in the game. Someone who stands to lose something if their audit is incorrect.

Imagine a DeFi app that lets people buy and sell insurance for any commit hash of any open source library. The insurance pays out if a vulnerability in that commit hash is found.

* As a library user, you want to buy insurance for every library you use. If you experience a security breach, the money you get from the insurance will help you deal with the aftermath.

* As an independent hacker, you can make passive income by auditing libraries and selling insurance for the ones that seem solid. If you identify a security flaw, buy up insurance for that library, then publicize the flaw for a big payday.

* A distributed, anonymous marketplace is actually valuable here, because it encourages "insider trading" on the part of people who work for offensive cybersecurity orgs. Suppose Jane Hacker is working with a criminal org that's successfully penetrated a particular library. Suppose Jane wants to leave her life of crime behind. All she has to do is buy up insurance for the library that was penetrated and then anonymously disclose the vulnerability.

* Even if you never trade on the insurance marketplace yourself, you can get a general idea of how risky a library is by checking how much its insurance costs. (Insurance might be subject to price manipulation by offensive cybersecurity orgs, but independent hackers would be incentivized to identify and correct such price manipulation.)

The fact that there is actual value here should give the creator a huge advantage over other "Web 3.0" crypto junk.
Why not use a full blown programming language? The higher level workflow stuff can be a library.
My main conclusion from reviewing this list is that there are a lot of furries working at NRO.
Yes using a standard library is better. It is more stable, trustworthy and maintained by a small group of people.
This article looks a bit rambling and unfocused to me. I'm not really sure where it wants to go.

But there is a pretty easy explanation for why people are burned out. All the really manual jobs are being slowly automated away or are low-status, so everyone is chasing creative, thoughtful or social jobs. And those jobs are getting more full on.

People are being pushed to do things that evolution really hasn't equipped them to do - sustained periods of low physical activity, high mental activity guided by willpower rather than instinct. That is pretty tiring.

Software is a great example. All engineering fields. Anything involving computers. Anything involving investment. Most creative work. Any customer service work (not mentally stimulating, but very demanding of continuous social engagement & othen in tense situations). Mechanical work.

It used to be everyone was a farm labourer. We don't have much work like that any more. Most of us have to plan out how we'll get physically tired out because it doesn't happen by accident any more.
All these laws have come about because they issues would have become so prevalent that instead of just affecting individual, they would have started affecting society at large.

You may be a conscientious person and take responsibility for outcomes which arise out of your "freedom". But not everyone would take responsibility and that is why these laws are there.

Amazing video. I noticed some small imperfections in the process but the end result is very nice and the fact that they are made by hand probably adds rather than detracts from their charm, each tube being a little bit 'off' rather than that they all come out exactly alike. Especially during the spot welding phase there is some burn through and the height of the stems is different for every tube. But likely that doesn't impede their final operation or longevity at all.

I really like how clean he works. They must cost a fortune the way they are made.

edit: prices are listed, 135 euros each, so 810 euros for the tubes for a six digit clock, the clocks go from 1400 to 2000 euros. It depends on how you look at it: for the utility value of a clock that's pretty high but for the amount of work it is probably on the low side, and by keeping them 'hand made' there is some scarcity effect at work, they'll never be things that everybody has so that's probably a happy medium for him. I wonder how many he's making and whether or not he is tempted to move away from the artisanal process to move into more automated production, larger batches and so on.

I also wonder why he fires the getters prior to sealing the exhaust tube, traditionally the getters were ignited after achieving high vacuum and sealing the envelope and removing the remains of the exhaust pipe rather than induction heated prior to sealing (they're the cause of the metal deposit at the top of many vaccuum tubes). The way he does it you risk re-contamination after/during the gas is introduced with any one of the following process steps, the getters really should come last. But it works well enough I guess :)

That video is a masterclass in how to produce something like this, quiet, just the work, no distractions at all. And the website looks great as well. This guy really has something to be very proud of.
I only lovecraft where here to witness this and possibly write even more stories about yuggoth and the eldritch things that might lurk on it
Roads used to be full of gasoline drip, heavy metals from exhaust and such. Plants would suffer but absorb it and pass it on to you if you eat them.

Nowadays not so much. Specifically around 200 times less so. Not worth consideration.

Whatever comes from the road is usually baked by the sun, so no nutrients left there. No need for that.

I can't come up with another way of analysis for this claim without it being more specific, but generally, no, that's not working today.

This really seems to gloss right over the idea that pieces of software use this space internally. ntpd still uses pseudo-addresses in 127.127.0.0/16 to configure refclock addresses.

If this is to make it suitable for unicast use over the internet, how long is it expected before infrastructure is going to work with that, and why is it better to force this sort of externality on people rather than just moving to IPv6?
The adjective "extreme" is being thrown around a little readily these days. I would save it for those who carry out organized, intentionally violent attacks to achieve their goals, and not those who read pro life news.

This is kind of an amazing implosion all at once on Twitter. The OBS Project accused Streamlabs of this after another streaming company, Lightstream, noted that Streamlabs had copy-and-pasted a marketing page from their product to use for Streamlabs' product, down to word-for-word copies of the "user" recommendations.

https://twitter.com/Lightstream/status/1460709404609757185

And, also in that thread, El Gato -- makers of the hardware Stream Deck -- chimed in with a wry "know that feel," showing that "Streamlabs Stream Deck" was, let's say, strongly reminiscent of their product.

The way we detect things in our own solar system is basically to take several images of the same patch of sky and look for things that moved. Objects that far out have a slow apparent motion and require repited observations days apart. We have a limited amount of telescopes that are sensitive enough and time on them are very competitive. But we have new telescopes on the way and on the next few years there will likely be many more confirmed objects on the outer solar system.
You didn't make an argument why it isn't a silly protocol. You didn't make an argument for why it is better in any way than HTTP. You didn't make an argument why we are worse off having replaced everything with HTTP.

Finally someone says it.
No, not everything is for survival.
There is no teleology.
Some things survive, others not.
Some things stay for a long time, some barely blink in existence before they're gone.

The ego construct did survive so far for a few million years, depending on which organisms you concede the development of an ego before humanity.

Neuroticism is a pointed variant of the ego.
It may or may not survive in greater numbers for the next 50 years.
For now it is a profitable market.

Depression is another variant of consciousness, based on a variant brain metabolism.
Often associated with a shorter life expectancy and, since it can be lethal in younger years, probably at disadvantage to procreate.
Which probably was not the case in times humans procreated at a much younger age than today and had less time to indulge in its quirks.

On the other side, if you survive depression, it may give you a much deeper insight in the human condition.
Which for sure is nothing for faint-hearted happy fools.

...
Oh, just in case some HN kitchen psychology rears its head.
I'm not depressed, I'm just outright evil.

It is often useful to have integer-keyed associative arrays; or, if you prefer, sparse positional arrays.

In either case, a hash table is often the most optimal implementation strategy. And unless the keys are guaranteed to be evenly distributed, the identity is an asymptotically bad hash function.
For movie theaters its typically one ticket per person. So easy to get watch time or earnings, etc.

Not saying Netflix is doing this but if the general consensus is that the watch time is too high, perhaps they're not doing simple hours streamed, but trying to guess how many people are in the room watching it too?

So on a phone/ipad it might be one viewer, but if its watched on a TV maybe they're multiplying it by 2 (or some other number 1.5, 2.5, etc) because on average maybe two people watch so its technically two hours watched per hour streamed? That could for sure explain higher then expected numbers while still not faking viewership numbers.

>>These lists rank titles based on weekly hours viewed: the total number of hours that our members around the world watched

Guess it depends on whether "member" means only the paying subscriber, or if "member" counts as anyone in the family who might be in the room at the time of it playing.
