I think it's become confusing to discuss because some feel this is just another safety device, like a seatbelt. But this limits a persons ability to operate their vehicle at all based on some metrics of their behavior, which I feel is a pretty big grey area and worth thinking hard about.

It's mostly worrying for me because I doubt very highly that they could do it safely, both from cyber security standpoint and just a technologically robust standpoint. There would be so many edge cases, and if they use ML, it's going to be pretty hard to be transparent about how it works.
Yeah, this is not growing a forest.

It's constructing a park.
There's a category of scripts that are complex enough so that shell is too convoluted, but can be a 10-20 lines Python script that would be 50-100 in Go.

By the way, OP specifically mentioned "one-off", which you also quoted. Why mention deployment?
I agree completely about not looking at distance. But, for me, heart rate is super important. It's actually the reason I've been looking into AR glasses for cycling and swimming. I normally have heart rate, power, and speed showing on my Wahoo - in that order.
Thanks for the review.

This product reminds me of portable mp3 CD players with anti-skip technology.

It was _good_ but it was missing the mark in so many ways and about to be obliterated by iPod.
https://projects.raspberrypi.org/en has a ton of great resources on scratch coding, basic electronics, blender, raspberry pi and more.
Amazing. 16 years of CDU but the fault is SPD's...

Also nobody was talking about NWO conspiracies until you brought it up. Projection? :)
I'm not sure what role you're envisioning for Apple here? Assuming you're referring to their role as a vendor selling electronic doodads, this is overstating their influence. iPhones are expensive, but they are a small portion of overall sales at Amazon. Besides, they own the iPhones! Ownership includes the right to sell what one owns, to whomever one chooses, for whatever price one can negotiate. (Well, unless one has signed over these rights to Amazon.)

If this is "picking winners" then every participant in the economy is picking winners all the time. Usually I think the term means something more like an outside actor deciding that results will be different than what the buyers and sellers would have decided in the absence of that outside actor. One might think that "the government" is the only such outside actor. However I feel that other large organizations with plenty of money and political power also qualify.
Out of curiosity, what's the alternative that you mentioned?
I was programming at roughly that age (I'm 41 now) - basic on an Apple IIe . I think we older folks had it good on a sense that you could make a computer do cool stuff that otherwise would have been unavailable. Computers are so ubiquitous now that introductory programming is boring by comparison. So I'd have no idea how to show a kid something cool they couldn't otherwise do with a computer, the way we could in the 80s.

I don't have a solution, but I wouldn't listen to the people who say "don't bother" either. It's still valuable to learn that stuff young, it puts you in a whole different category vs people who adopt it later. Maybe if you write code yourself you can show her some parts of what you are doing and explain them to her? I remember watching my dad work, and I think that is where kids begin to learn about stuff, even if it's too complex for them to get all of it. Plotting stuff is a good example where there is an easy connection between the code and output, but I'd suggest trying to share whatever you do for research/ work with her.
I was a UTCS PhD student back in 2013-2016. I was looking forward to taking a graduate class taught by Dr. Cook on programming languages, but the timing didn’t line up. I always considered that to be a bit of a shame, as I knew he was going through cancer treatment in and around that time.

This is exactly the Microsoft playbook.
> Using commit log diffs as changelogs is a bad idea: they're full of noise. Things like merge commits, commits with obscure titles, documentation changes, etc.

I’d rather fix that. I’ve been following the suggestion from this website in the past. It is a nice take but tedious and boring.

Better have commit messages. For example:

Yes, I remember! But I just got up to 2011 on my todo list and am playing through Borderlands 2. I'll follow up on 2014 matters which will hopefully take less than 3 more years.
• Good job on presenting the content sans JavaScript, even if JavaScript is required for the best results (responsive reflow).

• Page is rather heavy to load.

• Page load felt a bit sluggish on even a fast device; but on review I think the massive background JPEG at the top (4000×8047!) was a large part of this: you should have an approximation of it (background colour plus radial gradient) underneath it so that its potentially slow loading and rendering isn’t so obvious.

• Resizing the window has a habit of breaking things, seeming to attempt reflowing most of the time but normally making a mess of it. (Not factoring scrollbars in may be contributing to this.)

• I’m getting horizontal scroll bars, sometimes for substantial amounts and sometimes because you’ve measured the wrong thing that doesn’t take scrollbar width into account: to experience that on macOS so you can fix it, you can disable overlay scrollbars somewhere in the system settings.

• I found myself disappointed that the document is served as HTML rather than SVG, though it probably makes sense because of things like meta tags that I don’t imagine most tooling will understand how to consume within SVG.

• Where text flow is concerned, it may be worth switching back to HTML with <foreignObject>. It would probably allow code size reductions and performance improvements in reflow, and would improve accessibility, hopefully to the point where you could stop maintaining a separate HTML alternative section, instead weaving it throughout the SVG.

But all up, I like the concept. It’s good to see experiments in doing things differently. I myself am preparing to start publishing content handwritten and -drawn via my reMarkable tablet, and will be toying with making it reflowable at some point, though I suspect I’ll only ever reflow very sparingly. (If anyone else is interested in the concepts, take a look at http://www.styluslabs.com/ and https://developer.myscript.com/docs/concepts/responsive-layo....)
My first thought is that the reason is to take the incentive away from "dislike" trolls. I reasoned that trolls got some pleasure out of seeing that ratio being skewed and it would encourage them to continue disliking videos.
Regardless of the terminology, the supposed "deep state" is often a fill-in for one's own personal misunderstanding of institutional momentum and basic functions of the government.

"The Government" isn't really a single institution, but a surprisingly loose collection of various institutions that all have some level of momentum guiding the direction they move in. It's critical to note that these institutions may have interests that harshly conflict with one another. Even the intelligence community, insular as it is, cannot be thought of as a monolith, but as various institutions with various priorities, some which conflict with the interests of other government institutions.

When the government does something we dislike politically, or does something we don't understand, it's "the deep state" or "the shadow government" which betrays a deep misunderstanding of what the government is. There's no central, shadowy cabal controlling the affairs of "the government" from behind the scenes, the various institutions that comprise the government maintain momentum and do what is in furtherance of their particular interests.

There is a positive to this. New creators get a little bit more of a chance.

For blogs Smashing Magazine is consistently solid.
Sure! Pandoc is great option. Actually, my pelican blog is based on Pandoc.

However, I think is a bit overkill (for learning purposes) since the code base is in Haskell [1]. I would prefer something more Python-like.

Could you define palliative care, please ?

I to tought that it was a branch of medicine dedicated to the relief of the suffering of those who are afflicted with a disease that will eventually kill them. But clearly you indicate that it's more than that so I would like to know.
You can use pipx, which will create a new venv for each tool it installs. You call the program normally afterwards, and it will use the correct interpreter.

There's not much wrong with just installing the tool to the global (user) interpreter, though.
I agree, 1000%

Having mister bottles with spore solutions to inoculate places where the seeds are planted could be a good solution. This would also reduce deadwood, increase the growth rate of the trees, retain water, and anchor more diverse ecosystems. Mushrooms have to be part of the solution. Identifying the various types of mushroom species in local healthy forest should provide a guideline for what's sprayed with the seeds. Blended suspensions of mycelium could be the best way of inoculation, but spores would definitely be better than nothing.

Wildflowers, lichens, and other flora should also be a part, based on the local ecosystems. Monoculture or insufficient diversity could result in making things worse, whereas healthy samples represent local optima discovered by natural growth.
Giant forest fires enter the chat.

I survived the 2018 Camp Fire and moved to the central US where disaster risks are low.

You can't sequester anything if the trees burn or fix soil and desertification if there's no rain. This is more #TeamTrees, Great Green Wall, and Ethiopia clean-tech virtue-signaling.
Cole added a v2 after a few dozen folks solved the first version. v2 was a bit trickier, but took me about the same amount of time since I didn't have to solve it all from scratch, just the weird new bits. Looking forward to v3!

>The subreddit is about a tenth the size of the WallStreetBets thread of GameStop mania fame, but Goldman points out that Antiwork now ranks above WallStreetBets in comments per day."

Is that really surprising considering that the gamestop mania has fizzled out?

>Lots of factors or trends could be influencing it even sock puppets, however my belief is it is an attempt to stimulate inflation short term to get interest rates up.

Are you saying the government/central banks are doing this to "attempt to stimulate inflation", or that the readers/commenters on the subreddit are doing it?
I just read up on Pandemrix, thanks for the info.

However, this does prove my point: The people who developed narcolepsy after this vaccine started showing symptoms one to two months after their vaccine.
The worst is when you have to onboard a new developer. No matter what it won't deploy and just hangs and you have to start new. You have to include that .amplify directory and set up everyone on aws version control.

Netlify and Vercel read directly from your repo. I left them because they did not have pg npm and build failed. I also had to open up the database to the public.

I've found if there was an easier way to do it, the original software would be written to do it that way, and the fundamental unavoidable unit commodity will always be a server you ssh into it.

I wonder how fast 1,000 components render? And if effectful components that call network requests create race conditions?
I'm so deep into Bear Notes that at this point it's basically a second brain to me. I used to heavily use tags inside documents for organization but slowly moved away from that and began almost entirely relying on search. The decrease in organizational overhead results in far more "quick jots" and reduces my ability to avoid writing things down because of not wanting to invest in setup time.

The only big feature I really wish it had besides non-apple device access (if the bear devs are reading this PLEASE finish the web version!!) is a map view similar to the iOS photos app since it turns out I almost exclusively remember the things I write based on content or location.

Interestingly I almost never remember WHEN I wrote something so the timestamps are pretty useless for content recall.
Nvidia doesn't allow you to use consumer CPUs in servers/data centers.
Could you provide some evidence of this? I read a lot of foreign policy and have never heard of it.

Russia and China behave the same way with many countries. Russia even controls parts of Ukraine and Georgia, and threatens Ukraine with invasion at the moment. China does it with Japan, the Philippines, and India, off the top of my head.

The US never does it with their neighbors, and in fact many other countries welcome the US military to operate from their territory. The idea of Russia and China as innocent victims is quite a stretch!
Search tools > "all results" change to Verbatim
Your original comment didn't say anything about introductory material. This whole discussion is about education to prepare students for university and beyond. No one is pursuing a career in computer graphics with only an introductory high school geometry background.
Why would they just let you in because of your family history? I presume your ancestors once left Germany to find a new country to live in and became successful there.

Not saying that Germany shouldn't "let you back in" if you want to immigrate back, but the mere fact that your ancestors were German should not qualify you more (safe for certain exceptional populations in recent war history) than others whose ancestors might for instance come from the UK.
Children lack agency, and can’t be expected to plan ahead like that.
Nailed it. It will need constant maintenance since weather patterns, fauna, and soil won't be self-sustaing.

> Don't write internal cli tools in python

What if your team is Python-based? Why would I write a CLI tool to be used by other Python programmers in Go or Rust, when some of them know neither?

It doesn't matter that you know Go and can generate all possible binaries; eventually, someone else will have to make a change in your tool. It will already be difficult for them to understand a new codebase, so you don't need to make it harder by also exposing them to another language.
I assume because it's easier to extrapolate an "alarming trend" from a curated subset of small initiatives and programs than it is from a bunch of recommendations for improving maths education. Seems to have worked, there's more comments here about a single program than the recommendations themselves.
Yes, there is a limitation. People have to learn high-level ideas and develop their intuition. Computers can have millions of training games (to teach the NN and to do regression tests), terabytes of tablebase positions and an ability to calculate thousands of lines in real-time.
We’re an investor in MycoWorks.

The mycelium (root structure) is killed in the process. It can then be tanned as you would tan normal leather. MycoWorks is working with Hermes which tans the leather in their own tanneries.

Animal leather is also embossed actually and they emboss the mycelium leather the same way. It’s an incredible fabric that looks and feels like animal leather, but it can also be grown thicker and to shape. It’s very versatile. An incredible product.
Did you work on Hyperscript? Hyperscript is near and dear to me as it was what my college used for the intro to algorithms CS class.

Genius, really - such an easy to read/understand/use language really freed the professors to teach algorithms, not programming mechanics. And that shit was object-oriented!

It was funny how often our professor would answer "how do I use hypertalk to do ___" with "just write it out" and how often it would work.
> Not like there aren't other places to sell things.

Lol, yeah, Amazon.

No other marketplace comes close to eBay and Amazon when it comes to the number of buyers you can reach.

But that's for "casual" sales, when you need to sell something fast and relatively painless. And/or sell something niche.
This was eye opening. Thanks.
I've actually already read the 'getting started with development' pages. I just want to take HN's temperature on how challenging it would be/ the likelihood of that project accepting submissions from a novice.
Thanks, got the link from your profile
This is a false statement. Animal leather is also biodegradable. Durability of both comes from tanning.
How so? New creators will have far fewer likes than established creators. Having a better ratio was a way new creators could shine, but that's been taken away now.
The practical result is trauma (about doing math ) passed from generation to generation to everyone involved teachers, parents, students...
The status quo is not working, so what do you propose?
I'm using rclone beta right now for its bisync feature. This was the last missing piece that I badly needed to synchronize my notes. And I'm very happy that it's finally implemented. Kudos to all rclone contributors!
Reforestation is a red herring. Trees don't sequester much if they burn or when they die. Plus, soot from forest fires rapidly accelerates deglaciation and polar ice melting, leading to increasingly-volatile weather as the jet stream patterns destabilize from a lack of cold thermal mass at the poles. Let nature do most of the hard work and sink the results.

The most cost-effective way to solve climate change is automated "farming" of GMO oceanic biomass for CCS.
I think there are enough hornery (and incidentally patriotic) congresspeople that they'd be okay exposing the CIA for blackmail even at the expense of exposing the secret.

The funny thing is that the worst of it is already exposed, and no-one seems to care. money-in-politics, the most serious problem of our time, is a "meh" issue to most folks, even though money poisons discourse on literally every other issues! And we know the precise mechanism and how to stop it (a law overturning Citizens United), and yet we do nothing.
This has got to be a troll, right? Basic succession ecology. Just how do you think forests came to be in the first place? You realize we have already wiped out, basically, whole species of old-growth hardwood forests here in the US (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_chestnut)? Where do you think those forest came from? Have you ever seen an empty lot for more than a couple of years? Take a look at pictures in Michigan after the exodus there.
That's what the search bar is for. You can ask YouTube to recommend you videos based off of a search query.
Her elevator speech definition: Palliative care is a whole person approach to medicine for patients with a terminal diagnosis who are still undergoing active treatment.
Yeah, I don’t think people realize how totally messed up eBay had to have been for the CEO to be knowledgeable about the harassment of a couple over their email newsletter.

Ebay’s head of security was sentenced to two years. This was not very long ago.

That customer support “ain’t so great” is probably one of the lesser concerns for this organization.
That's where the cheat sheet come in, all of these basic concepts are condensed and is literally everywhere.

Now, almost every single key has it's use and I likely only have muscle memory on about 20 keys, when it gets to the vim command line, I know even less. But I'm not quite worried about it.
The article mentions that collectors learn by doing but there are some courses related to the profession and that there are jobs but not enough people available to do the jobs.
Yes design patents are different from trademarks and the apple rounded rectangle phone design is a US design patent while the 2x2 lego brick is registered in the EU as a 3d trademark. Filing for a trademark on a shop name and logo may not be as easily challenged with only an existing design patent and no matching trademark.

So yes, the metaphor in the parent is faulty in that small detail when it picks up the metaphor created in the grandparent to better explain what is going on.

The greatest carbon sink in the world are actually our oceans, and we’re not even close to paying attention to their health.

I think all modern takes on climate change have become very reductive. Yeah monoculturing dead forests isn’t a solution, but so is not doing anything. The ideal solution at this point frankly is to reduce human consumption and leaving large swaths of land to their own devices. Give them time to heal. (And provide some help with native flora and fauna if the land is too far gone to heal on its own).
You may already be aware, Pandoc is written in Haskell but it uses a Lua script to do the actual conversion between formats, so it's more lightweight than actually having to rework the Pandoc source, depending on what you're trying to do. It's pretty intuitive to start tweaking the Lua code to get the output you want, I have done this for a couple projects and otherwise don't really know Lua.
Making driving illegal for everybody would certainly save people from drunk drivers too. Do you think that's a good idea?
Payments fraud is, and I mean this literally, not on the scale of a gold mine. It is on the scale of gold mining, as an industry.

"That sounds like a very hand-wavy claim, Patrick."

U.S. gold mine production in 2020: ~200 metric tons, which is about 6.4M troy ounces. $1.8k an ounce currently. That's +/- $11B.

Payment fraud worldwide is +/- $25B and the US has the plurality of it.

Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nelsontravis/

Email: travis.nelson@gmail.com

I have spent over a decade working with startups on product and design across industries including scientific hardware, crypto, and AI. I focus on design systems, product strategy, and team building.

I am primarily looking to get back into crypto/blockchain (even though it's HN's favorite punching bag). I enjoy designing with and around complexity. If not crypto directly, I would be interested in non-consumer FinTech or infrastructure plays.
