I feel like it's one of these studies where there is deep importance not to read more into the conclusion than what it states.

So while expectation of time would be a factor, it wouldn't be the only factor and that alone couldn't break out of the physical constraints of the system.

I think hunger is comparable: one can be hungry over time as a result of the natural changes in their body, or they can become hungry merely by looking at appetising food. I think psychology can play a useful, but complicated role.
> If everyone is supporting FOSS with their own developers, which they can pay more wages to because they aren't shelling out to Microsoft and apple, then Microsoft won't have as much income with which to pay exorbitant salaries.

That would require a huge coordination effort. There's going to be several companies that want different features and have their own devs on payroll (at different rates). VS Microsoft that can just organize a meeting with the leads for Office and plan out the roadmap.

Also, exorbitant is one way of seeing it, but does it hold when you consider the insane added value these devs bring to millions of businesses?

> I'm not only talking about the German gov doing this, but all companies

The other issue, specifically with government, is that salaries are capped to public servant scales. There's no way they can hire Microsoft or Google talent at these rates.

The biggest advantage is freely positioning the halves to suit your personal preference. You might have them in a /\ arrangement next to each other, or | | so that they match the position of your shoulders. I'm currently sitting in a rocking chair with my laptop on a small desk and the halves of my split keyboard on my legs, which works surprisingly well. When I'm on the move without an ergonomic desk, I tend to put my laptop on a cardboard box to avoid having to look down all day, and my keyboard halves on each side. It helps me avoid neck strain.

For me, getting a split keyboard was a matter of protecting my hands. I felt strain in my wrists and fingers when using a regular keyboard all day. With a split keyboard my wrists can stay straight and I was forced to learn the correct finger positions. I no longer use a mouse, but instead my keyboard's mouse layer keys, so I have no reason to move my hands away from the home position.

Of course most of the split keyboards, being made for enthusiasts, also contain a lot of other features like customisable firmwares and such.
I read it a few weeks ago. It is very good and highly recommended. I feel this opened my eyes quite a bit in the following ways:

- history is not a linear progression and narrative, sometimes things happen in leaps and also can go "backward"

- farming was something that was dabbled in for a millenia before fully committing to it

- the idea of "egalitarianism" is quite vague and can be understood in many ways

- ideas about egalitarianism moved from native americans to the french .. not they other way around

- lots of very interesting stories about how our ancestors were not stupid

- lots of questions about how archeology has been interpreted and how a lot of the evidence does not support the mainstream narrative

- gives examples of societies where "leadership/politics" was actively avoided

- has a nice background on different ingredients of statehood and how they manifested in history

I have a feeling this might be the seminal book for having a fresh analysis and reassessment of lot of what is called "prehistory".

Very highly recommended from my side. I will re-read it a few times probably and gift it to a few friends.
It's a protease which matches key neural proteins. The key to recognise is that it's reusable: one molecule can keep breaking proteins, and as soon as it does that faster than homeostatic processes can replace them you're in trouble.

Just how "rm -rf /" can destroy your whole system: it's a small character but it matches and destroys everything.
Cookie AutoDelete is a bad choice. The idea of it sounds good, but websites nowadays have lots of APIs to store information in your device, and Cookie AutoDelete doesn't delete all of them, which renders it completely pointless in my opinion.

Eventually what I did was configure my browser so it removes all cookies every time I quit it, which is more or less once a day. Also, I blocked third party cookies.

I used to send these monthly massive 'update' emails to all the execs at my tech job. While it's not feedback, at some point I switched to including a TLDR version at the top for the busiest people and a long-form explanation for anyone interested.

I was pleasantly surprised when the CEO gave a huge 'THANK YOU FOR THE TLDR version' in a reply all. The 'bottomline' comment kind of reminded me of that haha.

Maybe the word "individual" doesn't mean in English "a living being that has an individual identity and behaviour that differ from that of its peers". In that case, now you know what I meant. I didn't think it was linked to humans in English.

For the rest, I think you're just ignoring what I said about different species being treated differently and I don't see any reason why caring about some plants means I should also care about all of them and even about bacteria.

> I'm curious what the best way to develop software for ChromeOS is that's not writing a web app.

Get hired by Google to work on Chrome OS. Certainly the best way.
Afraid is also the only way.

More seriously. Chromebook have several native apps. The browser, the file browser the gallery app, the movie player.. and that's all I guess.

There is chromebrew but it requires you to put the device in dev-mode and it very niche.

The are some PWA which seem to work only with Chromebooks, but that's different I guess.
I find this "everything old is new again" such a tiring take. Sure, you can do things you could already do in Rails, but without giving up on the things people adopted React for. Like client-side updates without full page refreshes.

If you fool yourself into thinking that a few similarities to what you're used to means that there's nothing new to learn, you're missing out.

(To be clear, I'm not saying that everything new is automatically better, or that even Remix is. I'm saying that it's foolish to dismiss something without trying to understand what it brings to the table that you've not experienced yet.)
Hilariously it appears you can just direct the system to turn down its own supply voltage for you (I2C to the PMIC, as you spotted), and that one of the levels has a bit error rate that's low enough to run programs most of the time but triggers a bit flip in AES often enough to leak the key.
Ask HN: Why doesn't DuckDuckGo launch a desktop browser?
I was only commenting on the reasoning. It's not a question of evil, just of basic business incentives.

> The truth is probably closer to being opposite than the anti-corporate crusader zeitgeist of HN. The point of the original comment was to express that behind all the corporations, there are just real people like you and me.

I'm a (small) business owner so I'm fully conscious of that. But it's a reality that past a certain size a corporation will optimize for its best interests given the current set of rules (law). If a company contribute to open-source it's not because they are nice, it's because the added value in marketing/hiring/commoditizing their competitors makes business sense, otherwise no matter their convictions people would get punished in their performance review, and the stock value would tank. Only specific corporate structures allow people inside a company to go against the baseline.
I like that million ways to do it wrong line. Never thought of it like that.
Actually I think I could deny it, because the issue is more complex than a boolean. While yes, certain religions have increased in their freedom of speech rhetoric, some of them still have death penalties for things like blasphemy (which in some cases includes cartoon drawings, apparently), and that hasn't really changed.
Fun fact, VLC and ffmpeg have fantastic support for most classic tracker formats. This opens up literally hundreds of thousands if not millions of songs to listeners.

I really wish modern media servers (e.g. Plex) that are built on ffmpeg would support tracker formats since it's basically "free" for them.

Also modern musicians working with modern trackers like Renoise work very heavily with VSTi instead of just samples. Though trackers really give an absolutely incredible amount of expressiveness to sample playback that I don't really think anything else can quite match.
Very much depends on what you're defrosting. A piece of meat frozeon at -20C will not defrost in 5 minutes under warm water.
I am going to show you, how you can install telephony server Asterisk on a small computer RaspberryPi in order to be able to make calls from your computer or smartphone to ordinary phone numbers. So basically, you will end up literally with your own PBX in your pocket. Actually no, because RaspberryPi needs to be connected to power supply and network, and you would look weird with cables going into your pocket, but you get the idea.
In my case I mostly use ABCs, not because I think they're universally better but because my use case fits them: dealing mostly with my own types, base classes provide some common functionality and the number of types is limited. Protocols are great for the opposite cases: you use types that are not necessarily under your control, no shared functionality and a wider amount of types.

Afaik M1s dont use HBM (which is 1024bit per chip and are their own thing), but ordinary POP ram like RPI. Anything up to 512bits is just cost cutting. Look at Xbox - no problem fanning out 320bit bus in addition to pcie lanes, same for hiend GPUs. 4096bit is where you can claim someone actually uses HBM for performance, like on Radeon R9 Nano/Fury.

> According to wikipedia, it works by "cleaving key proteins required for nerve activation". Unless there's some self-replication mechanism, how does that even work?

The toxin is an enzyme and as such is not consumed during the cleavage reaction. A molecule of the botulinum toxin breaks down one protein molecule and then moves on to the next one until the toxin itself is degraded by the organism.
You're gaslighting. A complete falsehood generated by your imagination is not "accurate enough" for any situation, and crying "nitpick" doesn't magically make you correct about anything.

Thanks, I will look into that. (Is this a recent addition to the API, or did I just missed that option from the beginning? My db code is pretty much unchanged since a few years)

And yes, file system api is confusing, I was also unsure for a moment to have looked at the wrong API, but I was refering to there, the local sandbox filesystem:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/FileSystem

Which says it mostly works now, but I never worked with it, because of chrome only, despite it seemed so much better suited for my use case than indexedDB.

You just described many startups without users or profit from revenue, minus the whole living together thing (but 8 hours a day is a long time, you are only really away for 5ish hours until you go to sleep).

There’s a reason why startups are put in an ‘incubator’.
Yes. And there's likely all sort of interesting comparisons there, like how taxi services in Cuba make their money from foreign tourists, the relative comparison of "medical deserts" in the two countries, the type of people willing to go deeply into debt for a US MD, vs. a state-funded MD in Cuba, and the types of medicine they go into (eg, primary care vs. specialist care; urban or rich vs. rural or poor patients).

I tried searching Google Scholar, but the topic is vast and my time little. I thought https://human-resources-health.biomedcentral.com/articles/10... ("Medical training for universal health coverage: a review of Cuba–South Africa collaboration") was an interesting read:

> Doctors play an essential leadership role in achieving UHC, but in most countries, their training is orientated towards curative, high technology sub-specialisation in medicine and surgery. The financial and academic barriers to admission to medical school tend to favour the selection of students from privileged backgrounds, leading to young doctors who have limited direct experience of the health needs of poor rural and under-served urban communities, with few choosing to serve these communities ...

> RSA’s long heritage of British medical education traditions and academic excellence, selection of the brightest students and its strong emphasis on specialisation have not helped in developing primary health care. ..

> Cuba adopted an entirely different approach to medical education with the emphasis on primary health care, an interdisciplinary approach, a strong community participation, an internationalist focus, and a health workforce of sufficient size and skills to meet population needs. Much of the training is in rural polyclinics as part of a primary care team, giving students a community and primary care orientation for a large part of their training. Moreover, their values are different: solidarity with poor and disadvantaged communities, and a willingness to serve in a variety of challenging settings [17]. Importantly, Cuba has achieved impressive improvements in population health, aided by these innovations [18].

Google runs microservices, so when the public postmortem mentions pipeline, it is a series of servers talking to each other. The problem happened towards the end of the pipeline, after multiple processing steps of the original user input. Furthermore, it was caused by a race condition, not mishandling invalid input.

> everybody must have just misunderstood Roy Fielding's dissertation. If only we had a clearer, better explanation, like this one!

> Unfortunately, this article demonstrates what the industry has known/shown for years: that HATEOAS is unsuitable as a technique for HTTP APIs.

Yes - that's all in Fielding's thesis - the REST architecture style is derived explicitly for hypertext applications, and contrasted with among others RPC and "movable code" (ie: server send js to client to execute).

So yeah, most people seem to have misunderstood Fielding's thesis.

Now, if one wants to argue against the benefits of multi-layer caching and so on, one might hold up the complexity and relative failure of WebDAV. I'm not convinced that's a failure of architecture as much as a failure of the design process surrounding WebDAV, however.
Compare with dog attacks: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_attack

Significant dog bites affect tens of millions of people globally each year. It is estimated that 2% of the U.S. population, 4.5–4.7 million people, are bitten by dogs each year. Most bites occur in children. Between 2005 and 2018 approximately 471 people were killed by dog bites in the United States, averaging 37 deaths per year.
It does, but the convention with forms is that you POST to the path you're on, rather than a different one. This is so that if there are any form validation errors you can easily re-render the current page with the errors added. To get this behaviour in Next, you'd have to hijack getServerSideProps (which is what the lib in one of your sibling comments does).

Thanks for the response, the main issue I have is that the blur is more of a tilt-shift then an bokeh. I don't understand why there is blur in front of the subject in many of the examples, also the blur is way dialed up and the edges becomes to sharp. It also seem to be very aggressive on the depth it starts to blur on, the ear of the dog is blurred as well as the foot of the people racing.

My example https://imgur.com/a/pitVg0K .. weird slimmer of tiltshift-focus on the ground, "one pixel" non blurred border on one side of the legs, harsh edge on the other side and blur bleeding into the hat part .. nothing I would use.

The name "Linux" carries more than one semantic payload.

Linux in the technical sense is only the kernel, true. But in the social sense, it's also all the trappings of an underlying open source system that can be freely moulded by a user if desired. Android and Chrome OS fight against those things.

I was a software engineering researcher (Ph. D. and everything) before I actually became a software engineer about 20 years ago. I became one because I realized it was becoming quite awkward that I wasn't one. There was more than a bit of impostor syndrome.

Software Engineering as a science has always been a bit controversial; mainly because a lot of computer scientists are involved with it and it is a bit of a soft science that most hard beta types would be uncomfortable with. Additionally, the whole notion of software engineering actually being an engineering discipline is not something everyone agrees on either.

Software Engineering is fundamentally a process that involves people interacting. That means a lot of the challenges and problems are related to that and a lot of the solutions are related to that as well. Simply put, a tool won't fix your process and people issues, generally.

The software engineering challenges in the industry are numerous. But I'd say the number one problem is that the demographics are completely skewed to propelling very inexperienced individuals into leadership roles because there simply aren't enough more experienced people around. Basically, the number of programmers doubles every five years or so. I'm 47; I routinely work with engineers half my age. Having anyone else in a team even close to 35-40 is very rare for me. The reason is not that my generation chickened out and went off and did something else; it's because we are outnumbered by about 2^5= 32x by people aged 22 or so. And about 16x by people aged 27. And about 8x by people aged 32. The median age in this industry is is 25-28. If you are lucky those people actually finished a degree and had one or two meaningful jobs before they joined you on your current project. Looking back at myself at that age, I definitely wasn't very senior.

But it's great fun to work with young people and it keeps me sharp. The reality is that young people don't have a lot of older peers to learn from. So, a lot of issues in this industry are repetive. Young person gets propelled into a senior role and gets to rediscover all the same issues that people were dealing with 30 years ago as well. And they get to make all the same mistakes before they figure out some solution. The smart ones, pick up a few software engineering books and find out that people were dealing with the same shit 40 years ago and found some pragmatic ways of dealing with stuff.

However, I'd caution anyone to apply anything they read blindly and dogmatically. Very little of it has been empirically validated in a proper software engineering research study. Doing so is hard and requires a lot of work. Most of the software engineering books out there don't bother with doing that work. That doesn't mean it's wrong but just that you need to separate facts from opinions. If it has the word "Agile" on the cover, you might want to keep that in mind. Most of that stuff is written with the same level of enthusiasm and assertiveness as the stuff that came before that.
Heh, I had a little laugh to myself reading this bit:

Same applies to code reviews.
I guess the people first and most affected would be support hotlines, not that their workplace hasn't been transformed to hell by surveillance already anyway.

I don't think AI will replace line mangers in productions to a severe degree, not in any higher occupation. Conductors of trains or ships won't go away too soon either. Maybe a lot of bureaucracy could be rationalized, although that might be a slow progress since there would be political resistance.

I believe the capability for AI to reason has come into question lately and rightly so in my opinion. Maybe we do have self-driving cars at some point. We do have some impressive chat bots, but the discourse is still an illusion.

Overall I share the view of the article, that nobody acutely needs to fear AI in the foreseeable future.
