Police forces as we know them were most definitely not around when the founding fathers established the country. At that time law enforcement consisted of citizen watches and constables. Constables served writs and warrants usually paid based upon the number served and also performed other non-law enforcement duties. Police departments didn't start appearing in the US until the 1830s.
An ESP32-CAM isn't far off. It's got a sticker sized footprint already. If you cut off the pins, the PCB is thicker than a sticker and the camera is a centimeter or two long, but they're like $10 a piece for ones with a camera and an SD slot.
I don't go looking up info on NFTs, so this might just be my self-induced ignorance, but I never hear this argument coming from artists.

Not saying one way or the other that artists like NFTs or not, but I only ever hear it from the perspective of the purchaser.

Open questions for someone who has sold their own artwork as an NFT: how would you compare it to platforms like Patreon, Etsy, etc? What is the minting process like and how prohibitive/easy was it for you to do so?

Is that study a randomized controlled study? Was your friend in the control group or in the experimental group? What was the difference of the outcome in both groups?

It's very rare that everyone in the control group dies and everyone in the experimental group survives. Usually the result is mixed.

The problem is that medical doctors sometime make bad guess about how many years the person will survive. That's one of the reason to have a control group, so the error in the guess compensate.

The comparison to the increase in the Mozilla headcount is quite commonly made. There are now (incl. Fundraising technology, only linked on that page) 50 people working in Wikimedia Fundraising alone:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising

Some of the staff will now work on the Wikimedia Enterprise for-profit arm, selling API services to Big Tech companies. That's arguably honest work – they're intending to earn money like anyone is.

They've hired "Disinformation" staff to look at instances of systematic disinformation on various Wikipedia projects. They're working on Abstract Wikipedia/Wikifunctions, a new project based on Wikidata:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Abstract_Wikipedia/Licensing...

This is intended to produce basic Wikipedia articles written in a programming language that are designed for easy translation into many presently underserved languages. And yes, they have lots of programmers, and by and large the community always complains that they don't work on their wishlists but on other stuff they don't want.

Compared to the early days, there has also been a huge increase in bureaucracy layers and management-consultant-speak ... some of the output, like the proposed "Universal Code of Conduct", is just hair-raisingly bad. See e.g. this discussion thread https://lists.wikimedia.org/hyperkitty/list/wikimedia-l@list...

The management culture of the place has always been iffy. People don't tell the truth, or at least not the whole truth.
It’s not my fault everyone wants to hear stuff during the interviews that has nothing to do with the job of programming.

And, you add latency issues and overhead. With a function call you pass two int and get a string of length 120 (how much memory is this? little, very little), with microservices you make an api call using http with it headers and get a json, and maybe you could need 2 api calls. For me it's easy, just create a monolith, when you become facebook or netflix, split symfony services into microservices (just an example). Oh, and don't forget the developers who translate a specific function into an endpoint, you need a change in the caller and you must change the api!
Trio has a really nice aesthetic, although I personally found the concept of nurseries a bit weird at first.

However, I'd be interested to hear why one would use trio today instead of the more widely used (and official) built-in python async / asyncio stack?

Are there any major libraries using trio? (To see how a large, rather well-structured async codebase looks like, see Telethon, an async and complete MTProto implementation [1])

Importance of hiring licensed professional electricians in Clevedon
https://musclewiki.com/ is a far better website than this Darebee. It contains video loops on how to do exercises properly with an associated experience recommendation (beginner, intermediate, advanced) in addition to text instructions, and you can sort based on what equipment you have available.

Darebee, on the other hand, seems to be social media shareables.

I am not related to either website.
Hiring competent, certified electricians in Weston super Mare is an important part of maintaining your house. Almost every family is reliant on the proper operation of its electrical system.

The difference is enormous.
This is still a big flaw in the hiring process.

Much like standardized tests are meant to assess objective aptitude but invariably favor those who specifically prepare for the test, which diminishes their objectivity, these types of interviews vastly favor those who specifically prepare for these types of interviews.

The exact same pattern happens with product managers. There are very specific types of interviews and there is an entire industry built around preparing candidates for these types of interviews. At that point, is the interview process still effective? I'm certain there is a pool of fully-capable people out there being left behind in sub-optimal careers for no other reason than they've underestimated or are ignorant of the need to prepare for an interview exercise that is, at best, loosely related to the work they'd actually do.

I suppose the counter-argument would be that good candidates should be able to figure out what they need to do to successfully complete a task, and properly understanding and gaming the interview process showcases that skill.

Splitting a system into microservices can help individual teams be better stewards of their part of the system. They can release on their own schedule, they can use their own linting rules, heck even a different language, and they can have better control of incoming code changes. With a monolith any random developer can go and flip some private method to public, import it way across the modules, and presto you are now building a ball of mud. Need an out of cycle release? Hopefully you have CI/CD or now you have to beg the SRE in charge to do it for you.
The exams are hard since it is a poor country without many good university spots. There isn't much you can do about that, except increase the number of spots until the requirements to get in are no longer that high.

Edit: And the main problem with increasing the number of seats is corruption. You can't just give people money and expect them to create an institution that actually educates people. All of the processes required to make that work will have to be made and expanded etc. It takes a long time to go from corrupt poor country into a modern country where things like education exists in abundance.

I rarely donate but this is such a great resource I have contributed multiple times.
I work in crypto and own two NFTs (one of which is a domain name, the other of which is a 20$ fun lottery ticket / community memorabilia).

I don't think the speculative bubble around JPG makes much sense.

An interesting thought I had though, is that the traditional art market makes ""no sense"" either.

People keep insisting it's so different because you pay for something tangible that can't be easily copied. In reality, you could buy a copy of a masterpiece that would be indistinguishable to everybody except a handful of experts, for many order of magnitudes less money than the original. The world's most expensive paintings sell for hundreds of millions. The best Mona Lisa replica are auctioned (!) for hundreds of thousands, and you can buy "good enough" canvas replica for a few hundred dollars.

The reason people buy art NFTs are the same that people buy expensive real world art:
(1) patronize the artist,
(2) tax evasion,
(3) status symbol,
(4) price speculation

NFTs just takes the logic to its paroxism / logic conclusion.

Note that is specifically about "art NFTs". NFTs is a much broader category that has useful uses (e.g. the aforementionned domain name).

Hi everyone,

I made a simple tool to get a boilerplate web navigation ready in just a few clicks. It features a live preview of your navigation, with different screen sizes to test it on; a menu builder to create, edit or delete your menu items (and submenus), as well as an option to see the generated source code at any moment.

You can choose between Tailwind, Bootstrap and Plain CSS (no frameworks) for styling. Also, you can choose which script you want to add to support interactivity. Currently, navbarmaker supports vanilla Javascript, jQuery or AlpineJS framework.

Want your submenus to open on hover instead of click? No problem, navbarmaker supports both. It also offers a layout option to choose between a sidebar or a classic navbar layout. After you are done with configuring your navigation, simply download the source code with a single click.

“I felt that jobs were hurting,” he said. “I looked at the many types of illness our country had, and whether it’s at the border, whether it’s security, whether it’s law and order or lack of law and order. Then, of course, you get to trade, and I said to myself, ‘What would be good?’ I was sitting at my desk, where I am right now, and I said, ‘Make America Great Again.’ ”

Security and trade would be the foreign policy bits that he felt we were far too weak on.

I'm looking into Superset in these days, so it's very nice to have found it here on HC.

I'm also looking for suggestions. A client of ours has a classic CSV representing sales data. I want to build a dashboard to make the visualization of the dataset easier for the client. I was looking both for Metabase and Superset. However, I don't really know if there are any other products out there which could help in this. I'm obviously referring to open source products which could be easily deployed, so I'm removing tools like Tableau or PowerBI from the list.

I obviously was referring to e2ee; everything is point to point encrypted these days. e2ee is turned off by default and cannot be enabled for group chats.

I stand by my assertion that Telegram's proprietary secret encryption is nearly guaranteed to be weaker than industry-standard encryption. "Home grown is always weaker" is a well known position of almost the entire crypto community.

I further stand by my assertion that Telegram's encryption is nearly guaranteed to be backdoored, because there is literally zero reason for a startup to invest the massive engineering resources needed to successfully develop and maintain its own encryption algorithms, unless they were being paid to do so.

The NSA has a long history of backdooring private encryption technology through industry "partnerships."

Do you seriously think Putin would allow a domestic company to develop a communication tool that would allow Russians to communicate with each other in complete privacy?

Hesitant to promote this even indirectly, but I've noticed some artists I follow on twitter have been fully converted to NFTs, such as https://twitter.com/dblasphemy/ , an old-school render artist.

I get the impression that the difference is that Patreon is trying to get $10 from 1,000 people whereas NFTs are getting $10k from one or two people. dblasphemy appears to have only two buyers for the majority of his work ...
> The typical approach, apparently, is to acquire a "dump," which is the bank of actual questions, and then repeatedly take "practice exams" so that they've already seen (and memorized) all of the questions that they might encounter during the actual exam. So, blatant cheating.

Interestingly, when I decided to get a ham license, the method you describe as cheating is precisely how every single person and resource recommended preparing for the exam.

I find it fascinating that certs are seen as so important in the military. I work for a Fortune 500 company and we care nothing for certifications. We don’t even really care about education (unless you are applying for an internship or first job out of college). Real life work experience is all that matters. When I look at a resume and see a bunch of certificates listed, it makes me suspicious that they are trying to disguise lack of ability with multiple choice tests. But, that mostly comes back to not having any faith in certificates.

My opinion on this as a parkour and fitness coach is that those routines are quite bad. Without explanations on how to do the moves well, it's much likely that the moves will be done wrong and lead to injuries, and even without that concern in mind, they're barely acceptable. Number of repetitions is generally too high (ideal set is 3x5 rep to 3x8 rep with 3 minute rest), exercises aren't grouped in any logical way (some pages feature both legs and arms, some don't, etc.). Practice this kind of workout regularly would most likely lead to muscle balance issues, pain or even injuries.
If you are interested in bodyweight fitness, /r/bodyweightfitness wiki is a great start to find recommendation and routines.

I disagree it's cheating though. Cheating is clearly defined by the exam condition, which are stupid (one time test rather than result evaluation but heh, it s a compromise).

We had this debate between dev in my company because the execs want to see everyone certified for the cloud provider they spent millions choosing without asking us, fine.

So myself I did it the hard way, spent 20 hours studying for this things, preparing for the exam, building little things to make sure I got it, to a point I feel really a lot less noob on the thing and actually start buying into it. I passed with flying color and it took me a quarter of the alloted time at the exam, fine.

But I have colleagues who just asked me what bank was the closest to what I saw at the exam, tried and only studied where they failed, some barely passed, some barely failed, and I insist each time it s better to have a holistic theoretical understanding rather than just a quick practice run but are they worst colleagues ? Some have kids, some are my managers, some are so humiliated to have to be revalidated as competent, they just cant enjoy it. They dont cheat, they do the absolute minimum to get a grade and move on.

And I challenge you to tell you never did that in your entire studying life. I remember a class of compilation theory when I was 19 that I studied the 5 hours before, and forgot 5 hours later to get a 45% grade that still passed my year and fine. Did I cheat? Hell no, but I was lazy and did the bare tolerable minimum.

But, should we certify people in IT like that, I think your manager and your team and your clients already know what you're worth, so I agree it s pointless.
To be fair, you CAN build a monolith in a way that is very similar to microservice architecture.

You can have a single function that handles all data base writes. A single function that monitors for failures. A single function that sends outbound notifications... etc

If these functions are call in a way that: allows for A/B testing, SUPER high latency (or no response), failure notifications sent to the code owner, automatic retries of failures, independent code deploys

Then, congratulations, you have a monolith made up of microservices!
