I loved the original Mobile Suit Gundam show, but I found the other series a lot harder to get into. The WWII-flavoured drama applied onto Space Battleship Yamato's formula hit me just right. I sometimes wonder if there's a different magic in the franchise for other fans.
My wife went through MATCH 2 years ago, so I'm very familiar with the data. There is extensive data backing this: https://www.nrmp.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/MRM-Results_...

Page 13 has a nice graphical summary.

NRMP is extremely good at communicating loads of data, but omitting some key facts that would support wide-spread reform of residency. They do a very good job of highlighting the places where things are working while downplaying the places where things aren't working.

> Graduates of some foreign medical schools do apply for US residency matches but the numbers are small.

About 1/3 of residency matches are actually foreign trained. That's not a small number.
Most of the kintsugi photos on Wikipedia do not state the date nor the origin of the object they depict, except for one, so I'm looking for something a bit more substantial.

Great and good are also unrelated concepts. Google is a great company, but they decided “don’t be evil” is unnecessary for greatness.
Explorable explanations[1] is what you want, not Jupyter notebooks.

Explorables have all the same requirements to carefully think them through and prepare them for reading and clarity of exposition, but they also have the interactions that ease the introduction of concepts to their readers through a hands-on approach (rather than forcing them to read the mind of the writer by reverse-engineering their thought process, by running in your short-term memory the examples given in a non-interactive paper).

That is a subtle pitfall indeed. LG also has this, where you can configure the icon (a small image) of your HDMI inputs in the UI. Turns out changing the icon to a PC will also change the signal processing algorithms.
Several years ago i went to see a screening of Things to Come, the tremendous 1936 adaptation of H. G. Wells's post-apocalyptic (and then some!) novel [1]. The writer and film critic Kim Newman gave a little introductory talk about the film. At some point, he referred to something that happens halfway through; a shout came from the audience, "Oi! Spoilers!". Newman was so thrown by the idea that talking about the plot of a famous 75-year-old film might be considered a spoiler that he stopped his talk and walked offstage. Which was a shame, as he's very interesting, but the film was great, so it was alright.

The patch seems to be disabling the feature by default. Not a great fix.
We really, really need legislation that says advertised features can't require an ongoing subscription.

All that is needed is for the advertising to be required to make it clear which features require an ongoing subscription.

I don't see the problem for the used car market - if anything, the fact some features won't be functional without a subscription ought to depress the used price of the car. If you take it to an extreme - say, a car that requires a daily payment to run at all - you'd find that the market price of such a vehicle wouldn't be far above the scrap value.
Employment is a policy failure on a much larger scale than that of the small towns which lost the factories which moved overseas - whether that be in the USA or in Europe, doesn't matter. Do you think those small towns could have kept the rust belt alive if only they had some of those ex-Californians around to teach them those "well thought out and humane" policies? Would Appalachia have been a thriving centre of development had only the majors of Bumfuck and Podunk gotten their acts together?

Of course not. The policies which gave California those jobs you mentioned are not the policies enacted by the current crop of Californian politicos. This can be seen by the population stats for the state which for the first time ever (?) see a downward trend [1] due to the number of people fleeing the place. Where California used to enact policies which made people flock to the place they now do the opposite. Maybe California was not the best example to give, seeing as how it is currently melting down in more than one way? Power failures, skyrocketing crime, rampant homelessness, tell me something which they're doing right...

As to Springsteen not being "the authority" on "human migratory patterns"... really? Why does it take an "authority" to see jobs disappearing from your town/county/state? You forgot to mention Chris Rea, is he more of "an authority"? Of course he isn't and of course he is since this whole "authority" spiel is just that. Both Springsteen and Rea made songs about things they saw happening around them, both of them involve rivers, both saw the jobs disappearing. Rea noticed that there are salmon swimming in Steel River, Springsteen thinks back to better times. They're artists, not "authorities".

Miners will only make money from transaction fees.

Currently, when a miner solves a block, they collect the block reward and the transaction fees for transactions included in that block. The block reward gets cut in half on a schedule based on the block number. Eventually, the block reward hits zero once it can't be divided any further, so only the transaction fees are the reward. Of course, at some point between now and then, the transaction fees will exceed the block reward, so it'll be moot.

By that time, a single Bitcoin will either be worthless, or it will be worth millions.

Hmm, it may be tricky to redo the infrastructure to remove Redis. I use a triple storage system of Local Cache => Redis => MySQL, where each is a fallback for it's previous. I also use Redis for other things that can be done quicker than sql, like a real-time leaderboard.

RabbitMQ is also integrated heavily between the different services.

Looking at Heroku, it seems a bit overpriced for MySQL and Redis, the cheaper offerings don't offer much RAM.

I might look at VPS/Bare metal to host all the infrastructure. Thanks!

Code is law. If your private key was made using a compromised RNG, and I find and derive the key, I am just as ethically, morally, and legally entitled to invoke whatever function I please.

After all, you can't make it illegal for people to yell prime numbers. That is all stealing bitcoin amounts to, is expression/possession of a very specific set of numbers, and a system that incentivises hearing, verifying, and repeating those numbers.

3.5mm is an analogue signal that can only output stereo. Its quality will be limited by the device it comes out of.

SPDIF (both optical and coaxial) support sending multiple audio channels in their original encoding, to support surround sound. The receiving device needs to support decoding of the audio, which is why there is often an option to force the SPDIF output to use PCM stereo instead of surround sound.

If you have a cheap TV and a good hifi, you'll want to use SPDIF or HDMI so that your audio isn't ruined by poor quality of the audio chipset in the TV.

so think about this. Do you want to give up your right of protecting yourself and be "protected" by the government? Or, do you want to keep your individual sovereignty and the right to say "no" to the government, meanwhile, also face the consequence that there are evil people and you might get hurt?
It seems like this is just narrative based judgment. Everyone is all about how reintroduced wolves are so great for XYZ because predators do so many good things for environments and prey dynamics but cats in the environment are bad for ABC and they kill all the birds, etc.

Most of the places which aren’t islands had predators in roughly the housecat niche before human civilization and many of those are lost.

I think it’s just the opposition by agriculture for wolves and the fact that people aren’t as affectionate for their prey which makes the “wolves good” narrative and people like birds and feel good about blaming humans so there’s “cats bad” narrative.

It probably doesn’t matter, your suburban cats are killing birds in a habitat that humans already destroyed by putting a suburb there.

If you want to make a difference to offset some cat activity plant native pollinator friendly plants and trees and shrubs that bear fruit for birds. You’ll make much more difference building habitat than complaining into the void.
So follow climate change model then? Wait until it's too late then start setting targets for today+(election cycle length) years?

Very exciting! Happenstance yesterday renewed my interest in DIYing a CM4-based laptop motherboard replacement, and having more open designs to learn from will only help that. I'm looking at qty=1 so expensive components aren't such an impediment...

I wish more designs would go open when they're no longer commercially viable. All it's going to do in the long term is breed better hardware designers, after all.
I'm a bit more optimistic. Email is already mainstream thankfully, and newsletters are becoming more popular thanks to Substack et al, so that makes a great beach head--"nobody uses it" isn't a barrier there. If newsletters (both "regular" ones and aggregation ones, like The Sample/Refind) continue to become more popular and thus shift more content consumption over to email clients, it'll be easier in turn for reader apps to gain more users, hopefully starting a virtuous cycle.

I don't know if this model would ever become more popular than FB/Twitter/etc, but I think it could become popular enough that anyone who wants to ditch social media can do so without feeling like they're missing out on something.
Well, at least you weren't flagged...

Alas, they get worst of both worlds: the city government is doing little about those shooting heroin on the sidewalk, because it is too busy focusing on the scourge of urban life, that is, restaurants offering sidewalk dining.

There is nothing to correct, you’re right ;)
> frequently in the form of effusive praise

I somehow doubt it's in the form of 5:1 ratio of effusive praise to questioning/criticism outside of the true top books there, and then to see this on a random ad where the OP swears he's not contacted anyone about the Show HN and yet all his "happy" "lurking" "customers" pop up with really sweet words within an hour is comical

I understand people are nice sometimes, but it's clearly not organic here.
Interesting that if you purchased upgraded audio, you get this remote unlock feature free for the first 10 years instead of the first 3.

Perhaps in the future they'll sell all the vehicles with the same audio system, but just disable certain speakers or add noise to the signal if you've not paid your monthly premium audio fee?

You can use SMTP [1] if you need something like that . While SMTP technically slower than REST, practically it doesn't matter if your application processes mailjobs in forked background threads or a queue, also most ESPs would rate limit outgoing email after it reaches their system to prevent abuse.

the benefit is also no custom code or needing to add their SDK, you can replace the service by simply replacing the credentials, probably without even a code deployment if you store credentials in env.

It's really disappointing that technical societies like the ACM and IEEE haven't done this already.

For many journals and conferences there isn't even a way to submit the code or other digital artifacts with the PDF. A few have badging for whether digital artifacts are provided and whether the results have been reproduced or repeated by others - steps in the right direction at least.

As much as I intensely dislike their practices of overcharging for journals and milking digital library subscriptions to fund administrative overhead, the technical societies are technically non-profits and exist to serve their members and the research and professional community. This is really something they should be doing.
what came first? notebooks in mathematica or knuth's ideas on literate programming[1] ?

regarding notebooks themselves, i feel like they're a high concept idea but i've yet to see them really click for me in practice. i find the small cells for code to be extremely unergonomic and that the interspersal of code and plots to be distracting from both the code and the plots (although pretty fantastic for demonstrating high level features of a library, programming language or environment).

on a more fundamental level, i completely agree that mathematical notation is lossy, and that it takes a lot of skill to go from some arcane notation to an actual sense of what the relationships are- but, it requires no specific functioning technology to do so. i can review a paper from 100 years ago and understand it, where running a computer program from 20 years ago can be a challenge at best.

i think that additional high touch experiences for data exploration and teaching are fantastic ideas, but i also think that maybe the base level of communication should be kept simple; both for the purposes of maintaining accessibility and history. where the linux kernel developers insist on 78 column listservs, maybe scientists should insist on camera ready documents when it comes time to share.

i think that everyone agrees that better science would come from full data and code being supplied with publications, but interop is quite difficult as-is keeping code alive. i suppose the big question is: does it make sense to move science towards how software is done, where every bit of code is actively maintained over the years to avoid code rot, or does it make sense to come up with a scheme of freezing and archiving computing environments used in science so those in the future may be able to reproduce results or errors as they see fit. (something like, every paper must ship with a vm image for a widely available architecture that includes no proprietary code and all data used for results)

interesting questions. how to fundamentally change scientific communication such that it is enriched with data and code properly is a harder/organizational problem that i think many have tried to solve (not to mention how this ties into another problem in science- idea validation/replication and knowledge rot). building software systems for exploration and data analysis (ie; computer as partner in exploration) sounds much more fun and likely to produce useful results!

As an academically employed scientist of 20 years, the notion that scientific communication suddenly needs better standards puzzles me. The core research curriculum of nearly every scientific field I’ve seen, STEM or otherwise, is that the data needed for replication are non-negotiable. A paper that doesn’t include it would be table rejected by any editor. Or one would hope. This is taught at the UNDERgraduate level, for heaven’s sake.

The thought clusters emerging from the recent “replication crisis” are a fascinating rabbit hole to crawl into. If you stay near the surface, you will find mostly young scholars cheerleading open science as the obvious solution to replication difficulties. The concepts of pre-registering your study, committing to sharing data, and publishing online are all various components of this idea, varying in their necessity by the author’s devotion to their cause.

But there are several downsides to such a system that aren’t immediately obvious. For example, does the skill set of the successful scientist broaden to include how skilled they are at poaching ideas from public data that wasn’t immediately seen by their authors?

Some of the more recent criticisms invoked the spectre of “platform capitalism”, and suggested the Facebook and Linkedin-ification of science by dumping all its data on a centralized platform would likely have a net negative effect.

This article was written in 2018, and most of the discussions I’ve read since then have suggested that the open science initiative has failed despite the rapid penetration of Jupyter and visualization tools in the scientific process. Perhaps, like most things, the unseen market will pick and choose the good out of the dubious.

The reality is nobody is ever going to pull it off.

RSS was great. I mean, it is great, but it used to be too. It didn't die in the public eye by accident. It was killed by the big boys who realized they can't make money off of you if they can't decide what content you see in front of you, you don't run their software on your device, and/or you don't have to sign up for an account to get the content.

Try to pitch a new syndication spec to anyone that controls a large portion of the information availability online, they're not stupid, they'll shoot you down because "we tried that already, it wasn't profitable enough."

The era of standardized protocols, freedom of information, ease of communication, interoperability, tools that empower the user, that era is dead. And it was too short lived. The internet we have today looks like something designed by Dr Strangelove. If you want to have sensible tools that work for you you're going to be swimming in a very shallow information environment with almost exclusively other zealous enthusiasts of whatever tool you think is better.
