Having invested quite a bit of my own time into various aspects of the scientific knowledge extraction morass, I’d say the author is largely on point, but there’s a significant, and potentially valuable distinction to be made between extracting research outputs and research inputs.

At least in the field of materials science, papers are by and large a record of research outputs. We made material X and it achieved performance Y - here are a bunch of measurements to prove that this is in fact what we made and that it truly achieved performance Y at relevant conditions, etc. In this sense, papers really function as an advertisement: look at what we achieved.

What papers do not do is rigorously document inputs, or provide a step-by-step guide to reproduce said results, for obvious reasons.

My current take on this topic is that it would be both feasible and valuable to build a knowledge extraction system to compile and compare outputs across a specified field. Think the big “chart of all verified solar cell efficiencies over time” [1], but generated automatically. This would at least immediately orient researchers to the distribution of state of the art results, and help ensure that they don’t omit relevant references in their reviews.

But extracting and making sense of inputs (methods), or even “knowledge”? Forget about it.

The idea of the 80 year generation related cycles is interesting. But your tangent about you don't like some narrow climate change 8.5 scenario means it's just some kind of a scam is just wrong. And you kind of go back and forth on whether climate change is real or not. I can't follow your arguments.
NeoVim has Tree-sitter and Language Server integration. I couldn't make it work for me, bit lots of people really love it!
Creators are free to choose to spend their time doing creative work, or not, as we please. I'm going to keep writing for the public, and so are lots of other people, and we don't care if you do or not. Amazon or anyone else can redistribute our work; that way it reaches more people. They won't have much luck selling it when you can just download it for free.

If you think the world owes you something in return for spending your time writing, you should take your ball and go home. We have a civilization to preserve here that copyright is threatening — children to educate, medical treatments to deliver, historical films to copy onto non-rotting stock, private communications it's intolerable to scan for forbidden information on which the government has granted you a monopoly — and any one of these is more important than what you think you deserve.

Our intellect is not your property.

> ...a common confusion is multi-cloud vs. multi-vendor services. The latter is way more common, especially at smaller companies. Tools like Terraform are often touted as "multi-cloud" and people ask questions like "Why would I use Terraform if I use only AWS?" And the easy answer to that is tools like Terraform allow you to manage anything with an API as code. For example: do you want to manage DNS, or CDN, or DBs, etc. (that maybe aren't on AWS) as code? Terraform gives you the way to learn one config language/workflow to make that happen, even if 100% of your compute is on one provider. From a non-technical standpoint, this helps your organization start learning non-vendor-specific tooling, which better prepares you from a human standpoint for the future noted above.

> I think the #1 value of multi-cloud is organizational: you build your core infra/app lifecycle processes (dev, build, deploy, monitor, etc.) around a technology-agnostic stance. As technologies shift, other clouds become important, new paradigms emerge, etc. your organization is likely more prepared to experience that change. This is something that is core to our ideology at HashiCorp, its point #1 in our Tao that I published 4 years ago! https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/the-tao-of-hashicorp

This is an interesting legal artifact but it doesn’t speak to appraisal of whether or not this is currently occurring or has occurred. In other words, they could simply have pressed this loophole with another loophole, or those committed could have simply signed off. Absence of evidence remains not evidence of absence.
Yes. Tile was a somewhat popular trakcking app that used a crowd-sourced network to find their tags. In recent iOS versions Apple crippled the Tile app by adding a lot of privacy settings related to location and bluetooth tracking.

Tile complained loudly when Apple released Airtags. Airtags are basically the same as the Tile trackers, except that the privacy settings that crippled the Tile app don't apply to Apple's app.

It seems that Tile realised that they have no growth potential any more since they have no chance to compete against Apple's first party solution, so all they could do is try to sell out before all their users were gone.
Pretty interesting idea, as when you scan down the list, a theme that emerges is concrete declarative statements which lack originality and sophistcation, and include values/tribe-centric epithets, watchwords, and jargon.

I'd be concerned that such a corpus would automatically discriminate against people below a slightly advanced cognitive ability, and against people well above it who use irony. Then again, from the perspective of the makers of this, that may be a feature.
Yeah, I was really disappointed. This is just a snapshot of someone's upvote/downvote history. The people upvoting this post should comment as to why this is remotely interesting, considering so far all the comments here are the same as ours.

Fot most tech jobs, I really don't think cost of living is a driver of wages. An inflation adjustment might make sense for a union or low skill job, supply and demand is what drives tech salaries.
At some point, some low-hanging companies are just going to start running IPv6 only applications and deal with the fall-out of some nn% of their customer not being compatible. Those customers will complain to their ISPs, which will provide incentive to get IPv6 deployed (should have been done 10 years ago honestly at any credible ISP). Getting the number closer to 100% will make it easier for new companies to deploy IPv6 only, until we get to the point that IPv4 is seen as some legacy thing that isn't relevant but used to be important in the dark ages of Web Deployments.

I'm very surprised at work and at home how often most of my Internet communications is running over IPv6. There are some surprising exceptions though [1].

I'd be willing to place a wager that there will be a $100mm company that is only IPv6 by 2030. And that the "Default IPv6 only on the Internet unless there is some weird edge case" will occur by 2040.

IPv4 as a protocol, though, will never, ever, go away - we'll see it widely deployed for the next 100 years.

If you're talking about Tailwind UI[1] — I use Tailwind extensively and have basically never looked at Tailwind UI. It's just useful snippets of HTML styled with Tailwind. It is by no means required to get value out of Tailwind.

I'm not sure what you mean by proprietary culture! Based on the fact that I've pretty much never seen anyone talk about it, I would guess (total guess, no real knowledge) that no more than 1% of Tailwind users have paid for Tailwind UI.

Emotional? Not even a little. Slightly flabbergasted, perhaps.

The federal government gives away money and equipment to local police departments. Aside from the strawman tangent you went off on with regards to congress having to make some laws, all I suggested was that maybe the feds could just, you know, not give that money to the departments if they don't want to cooperate.

That's not even a little bit authoritarian. The local departments are completely within their rights to finance their budgets the old fashioned way and continue to be unaccountable, or at least accountable to their local citizens. Which is how it ought to be anyway. Funneling it through the feds is a terrible way to have any accountability.

So how does Omicron have any advantage, right now, from that supposed difference? Wouldn’t every mild strain just suffer from governments’ efforts targeting the bad strains, which ruin it for all the others? Note that any future benefits cannot explain evolutionary changes in the present because viruses don’t strategize.
My simpler explanation is that putting "no ads" in title is meaningless and without proof and on its own unenforceable. As a consumer, honestly, as much as I want to rant against big companies and for small developers - yeah, I'm with Google on this one. Putting random unverified claims in title is bad.

(concordantly, I fully support making "no ads" actual metadata searchable/filterable, as well as "Supports Controller" "in game purchases" etc.)
Super bizarre - I've found the opposite. I really like Tailwinds, it's great for getting up and running quickly if you're a one-person-team but as our team's grown, readability becomes quite a big issue (it's just not as clear as pure CSS/SCSS I find)
I've heard many Chinese tell me that property is a good speculative investment because China is increasingly urbanizing, meaning those farmers move to the city have to live somewhere. But how can a poor farmer pay for that $1 million apartment the speculators are hoping to sell to them? It doesn't make sense.
On work place safety I theoretically have to submit a sketch of my home work place and e.g. also need to bring in cables for electrical testing. Yes my employer is generally responsible for a risk assessment (here in Germany) Actually a covid home office risk assessment guidelines provided by such a work place insurer even provided guidelines to account for the mental health effects of being put into home office. For the drive to work, insurance covers the direct path including bringing kids to school or kindergarten. Actually I once had to draw a map that very much detailed the route I have taken because I had a bike accident. Also in hospital you typically will be asked to detail that the accident was on your way to your work after that everything will be automatically handled by the employers insurance. I think the ruling just strengthens the existing system.

Ironically, I had the opposite opinion on clicking the link to the blog.

Sure, a Galaxy Fold is a pretty niche user device, but its genuinely the worst first impression of a mobile website I've ever seen, with everything weirdly scaled to sit in a narrow portion of my screen (other dimensions linked to px values on the video embeds maybe?). Had to load the link a few times to confirm I hadn't just accidentally zoomed out, since if I do zoom in it looks like a normal mobile stylesheet

Police in the US kill ~3x as many people per capita as compared to Canada. This is roughly proportional to the disparity in rates of violent crime.
I think you're right. Pacer is basically free for any of us wanting to look something up reasonably. The people that care are the people that want to harvest the data contained therein and sell it, use it for extortion, or use it to deny the reformed ex-con underclass access to housing, jobs and credit.
"Can" is the operative word there, I think. I don't think that this is how it has to be, just how it will be.

Cars communicating with one another means that they will prioritise QoS for one another, and pedestrian safety will be, as ever it has been, an afterthought—at least as long as there's more penalty for damaging a person's car than for injuring the person themselves.
>As I've said in other posts, the amount of ewaste I generated while in the Android/Google ecosystem is criminal.

This is an unspoken downside of that ecosystem. I have also generated many phones worth of ewaste when I give up on them in less than a year. Its one of the reasons I stopped playing games with all these manufacturers and just bought an "official" Google phone and not touch it software wise. It obviously still wasn't enough.

I was recently cleaning through my attic and I found a lot of these old Android phones. Its amazing how many of them didn't get anywhere near the support that iPhones phones do. I told myself that I would eventually find a custom rom for them and then reuse them for something else but lets be real, that is just another time sink that probably won't happen. Now I am left staring at these phones wishing there was an easy way to deconstruct all the components into their base materials. I know that it is possible to break down the plastics via pyrolysis but no one is really doing this. Secondly there are the circuit board. FR-4 is ground up and used as filler from what I understand. What that means is that even if this phone is recycled, it will never really fully go away. Put in that context, the Android ecosystem just seems even sillier.
There's no such thing as a housing crisis. It's just another manufactured crisis by lying Democrat scumbags. Maybe we can keep this fucking shit off of hacker news?!?!
I don't care. The law should be free, period. Cheaper to pay once through the legislature than to put a paywall on it.
That's what I mean, though. $250 for some styled HTML! I think that's crazy. Compare with Bootstrap, which has basically just as many snippets simply as part of the documentation.
I don't know what you mean "the government" worked its way into a period of partisanship. Sure there is terrible deadlock. One party has moved to an extreme and is trying to dismantle democracy so that it can force things it's way. Only one party has gotten to the situation that previous presidents and leaders in the party are almost uniformly against the future next president from that party.
> Interns play with petabytes. Literally.

Most interns don't. Most industry veterans don't either.
Oh definitely. I wasn't disagreeing with that aspect. Everybody had been focusing on how the Pixel line would be able to solve this issue which kinda ignores that bigger issue that the entire industry needs to be maintaining these security updates. There's no good reason for OS security updates to be gated behind manufacturer control.
Or maybe it is a mixture of both? Are you sure they don’t have covert people in all the very same positions? Does the CIA have its own internal museums, mapmaking companies, architecture firms? What buildings do their architects design?

Employing an internal economist might be able to give you an idea of financial things going on in the world, but employing an economist who writes for a prominent media company or is on TV allows you to shape how the public THINKS about economics and financial markets which is much more powerful.

Perhaps the tweet is not an open admission of this, but it doesn’t take a lot of effort to connect the dots.

You can still put [no ads] or [PRO] in the icon, pro/paid in the title.

That said, a no-ads app still has ads in Google's eyes if there is any promotional link, i.e. to your website or your other apps. Google takes down those apps if you don't label the links as "advertisement".
When you're optimizing for a metric like lines of code written, then abbreviations make sense. If you're optimizing for readability you could do something like (I'm not a C programmer so IDK if this is syntactically correct C):

`
memory_write(

processor.register[0],

memory_read(

memory_read(processor.register[1])

)

)
`

To me, multiline statements are much more readable than single line nested statements regardless of abbreviations used.
Any thoughts as to how Tailwind can handle dynamic plugins using Tailwind? Ie it seems Tailwind relies on tree shaking to produce sanely sized CSS. But if you have plugins which rely on Tailwind, you'd have to either ship the full sized Tailwind CSS or they'd have to duplicate CSS and ship with it.

So far with this plugin/extension design i've not found a way to use Tailwind and also retain nicely sized CSS.
