> The perception of time gets incredibly distorted

We can only internally represent time as 3D space. If under the influence of psychedelics space gets warped and unrecognizable, it follows that our perception of time also does so.

No, and never will, Perl 7, on the other hand, is in development[1].

How do you suggest web apps can be granted native app-like abilities, then, if not via a standardized browser API? PWA's are a thing, and arguably the future of app development (including wearable computers, the next big thing). If not: Least companies can afford to develop native solutions for every single manufacturer, granted there will be more than one. We'll be stuck with solutions like Cordova forever. A grim prospect on the future.

Another comment suggests bundled permissions for elevated apps, with a simpler prompt, if any. I think this is the inevitable way to go.

> Since the interior state of another being can only be understood through interaction, no objective answer is possible to the question of when an “it” becomes a “who”

A large language model can in theory be understood at an algorithmic level by reverse engineering. If the algorithm turned out to be a giant lookup table, it's an "it". If the algorithm contained an obvious model of self, it's a "who".
It works on Chrome, so that's most of the world's smartphones. Desktop support is obviously lacking, though you might be able to write an extension to forward vibrations to an attached games controller?

Luckily, all the fancy web devs use iPhones so they probably don't even know about features like these, which helps in them not getting abused to hell.

I've seen it used twice, once for physical feedback when using hassio (really nice) and once with one of those shitty scam ads (really awful). I was surprised that there wasn't a permission prompt for this API.

I do feel it to some (small) degree..

I.e. my two main linux instances (laptop + desktop) feels like "home", other instances does not.

Some tools (postgres, python, linux) feels like an old well-used glove and safe, others not..

So without reading the book, it seems like the same thing?
Maybe a case of "Brand blindness"?

Strassen method is faster than native multiplication, but it is not stable: you will get much larger rounding errors when implementing it using floating point numbers, compared to native multipllication. And fine precision is required for a lot of algorithm implemented using matrix multiplication, such as matrix inversion or gradient descent, so this is often a problem.
The key is just not observation. Theory has a lot of issues. For that problem mentioned in the article see this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_constant_problem . As a joke, whilst I agreed hard to deal with matters and energy, but even nothing you can model that is tough.

I love cosmology and reading about it. Always exciting. But not because of the human part. More positively as said in the article … a lot to be learnt, just do not use the word should you are ok I am ok.
> idiomatic

Absolutely. If one person does their best work and is still frustrated after trying dozens of options, it is fair for them to be scratching their head and saying, "This shouldn't be happening."

The article itself provides exceptionally precise reporting (though IANAA) of mutual work toward a grand challenge in astronomy --- which is still leaving people scratching their heads at discrepancies after trying dozens of model or analysis variations. The word 'should' in the title (I believe it only appears there) to me conveys well-enough (it is only a title) that there are human elements/expectations and legitimate after-the-best-of-care puzzles remaining.

I don't know if it is a good comparison, but if the time for the g-2 result reveal came, and the result was a 20-sigma discrepency, I would expect every experimentalist and every theorist involved to immediately scowl and say, "F***, this should never have happened."

Also perfectly ordinary and ideomatic: To say, This should be compiling without errors.

Great science reporting in the article, hence my rant to defend it.

Thing is, if the idea is to stop wrong conspiracy theories from veing talked about, it makes sense to ban legitimate science that points in the direction of the conspiracy.
If you want to do propaganda, then misinformation is useful. But even using only good-faith articles as sources, you can still make your propaganda, it will just be harder.

Especially with covid it seems like social media has decided to counter propaganda rather than misinformation. I can see why, but I think it is wrong. Especially if the argument is 'this is false'.

To me, this shows once again that content moderation against misinformation does not fit with private parties.
L is the latency of the instruction, so 1 clock cycle after the INC r8 instruction another instruction can operate on the result in r8.
T is the reciprocal throughput, meaning in this case that the CPU can sustain 2 INC instructions per clock cycle, if there are no data dependencies of course.

In general these numbers will stay the same when counted in clock cycles, regardless of frequency.
The electrical charge travels through the wires. This causes an electrical field and a magnetic field surrounding the circuit.

The point is that the energy goes through the field, not through the wires.

In your example, the Poynting vector would go towards the resistor, where the energy is turned into heat.
I'm as much for my rights to hold whatever digital data as probably most other people on this thread.

Sounds stupid. In Germany we have a case now. One nurse faked her vaccination pass, not just to be able to say she's vaccinated but also in terms not to do the testings anymore.
Her husband got infected and she still went to her workplace - always saying there is no need to be quarantined for vaccinated.
She then developed Symptoms by herself - in the meantime her colleagues got infected and some patients, of who 3 died.

That's hate, egoism and inhumane. That woman faces charges comparable to murder 1st degree. I hope she will get some more serious charges.
No mercy.

Agree. Models are only our attempts of describing how something behaves.

That's why I'm also not a fan of using the word "law" for names of the models, because it implies as if the universe is obligated to follow this "law", but a law of physics is still essentially only our description (even if it uses math equations instead of words to describe).

>"Remove headphones immediately if you experience a warming sensation or loss of audio."

A "warming sensation" is not what the OP has experienced.

When Bose augments this to the following, you may have a point:

>Remove headphones immediately if they spontaneously ignite and start emanating smoke and hazardous chemicals that cause chemical burns to your skin. Failure to do so may result in death. Rinse all exposed skin with running cold water immediately, and see a medical professional ASAP in such case.

You seem to have no problem with this scenario actually happening to someone, so there should be absolutely no reason not to have it in the same manual in these exact words.
I was introduced to Linux, Vim and Perl when I joined a semiconductor company back in 2007. Used them as part of writing tests in asm, automated test generation and other text processing.

I've heard that these days they've moved to Python (which reflects my own preference for writing scripts). I still use Perl for cli one-liners when sed/awk aren't enough.
The Sappir-Whorf hypothesis refers to specific languages, and is all but proven wrong in its strong form (a person speaking English and a person speaking Japanese seem to perform exactly the same at all cognitive tasks).

But there is a different theory, due to Noam Chomsky I believe, that language in the general sense is in fact our mechanism for higher thought, with communication being just a secondary function[0]. I believe that this is the theory that the GP was combatting with the animal example.

> OP made a claim that Drata collects private employee info and resells it. That’s a large claim.

What I know is:

1) They collect mandatory private information. They already know my name and my email, and they used that information to ask me to complete some tasks on their website. I don't know what those tasks are, because I first have to accept their TOS, which contains clauses that is referred to, but not disclosed. I declined.

2) Their "webpage" is part of their service. This is where I supply personal information (presumably more than they already have). So unless they have another TOS, after I accept the publicly available one, that's the rules: I have to give them personal data, because my employer (well, in my case it's my customer, not my employer - Drata have no agreement with my employer) signed a contract with them.

3) They give themselves the right, in the websites TOS, to sell my data.

So: 1 + 2 + 3 = Drata collects private employee info and resells it.

Learning the vi and Vim Editors (8th Edition)
Calculate the volume of wire that would contain 6e18 free electrons, assuming 1 electron per atom.

You can intuit it by knowing Avogadro's constant is 6e23.

So 1e-5 mol, 1 mol of (atomic) Copper is 63g, so that's 6e-4g of copper. Density of copper is 9g/cm3 so let's say 1e-4 cm3 = 1e-1 mm3 = 0.1 cubic mm of copper.

So one amp in a copper wire is equivalent to 0.1 cubic mm of that wire's electrons flowing out each second. I'd say that's "barely moving".

Anyway, if it's common knowledge, there's no harm to put a big label warning about it on the instruction manual, right?

I haven’t tried Remix, but I’ve seen the demos and read the docs. It looks promising but from what I’ve seen I think you can hardly call it the next Rails. The older I get, the more experienced I get, the more I think back of my Rails days as an amazing time. The framework had/has it all. I haven’t found anything that comes close to the developer experience and how easy and structured it is to work with.
This is one of those thoughts that someone takes a long time to write because they want to share something they’re really passionate about and for whatever reason felt a moment of inspiration. Then no one reads it because it’s on such a different wavelength than the rest of discourse on HN that they simply don’t have the tools to add anything to the discussion. Then the OP freaks out and delete the message - well, I have a few times at least.

Anyway, this was really interesting stuff. I haven’t a clue if it’s just weird new age fractals and crystals stuff, or if you’re describing something that goes way past our present day simplistic models of the brain being a nation of neurons, each responsible for a different function.

This is a terrible article, I could not believe it was on front page of FT
yesterday. The usual MSM scaremongering and sensationalism based on modelling by professor lockdown Ferguson - Yes the same idiot drama queen that said that 2% of everyone who caught Covid would die 2 years ago.
Did they, though?

Information of some kind of flu/pneunomia-like sickness in central China was available on December 31st, 2019, the day I learned about it from our local news media. Chances are the CDC had that information before I, a non-medical civilian, had it.

On January 15th, with me noticing a significant difference between what the Chinese said and what they did in Wuhan, I realised shit's going to hit the fan. I bought a few extra conserves when I was going for groceries, some extra toilet paper, started to invest in my home office situation, "just in case". Nothing too prepper-style crazy, but enough to be prepared. And - figuring that any flu/pneunomia-style sickness would also be commuted by coughing, I got me some 100 cheap masks, some nitrile gloves, for good measure (arguably didn't use them much), and some isopropyl alcohol for disinfection. You know, things that I see doctors using when they get into a potentially infectious zone.

No-one at the CDC, packed with medical professionals, watched Chinese news reports and did some "what could possibly go wrong" reasoning?

Around mid-march, people in the west finally started panicking. By now, what I got over two months, slow and steadily, they needed to get all at the same time. Suddenly, they realised that this is not just a Chinese thing. "Don't panic buy'", the powers to be claimed, "There's no need! Supply chains will hold". Well, today we know they didn't, and back then, people sometimes found themselves lacking basic necessities.

"No need to buy masks, they don't work", the CDC (and health officials around the world, with the exception of countries who use masks every time it's flu season) said - yet every single doctor and every single nurse I've ever seen dealing with Covid Patients go in like medieval knights in armor.

I've been vaccinated trice by now, having made the appointment for the booster shot two months in advance. "No need to do that", we (non-us) were being told. "there's enough vaccinations around for everyone". Well, right now over here (non-us), we have people standing in line in the cold for up to four hours, and vaccinations are actually running out quickly, because the former government decided to not order enough, let the next guy deal with it.

You are right not to trust Fox, Trump, or Breitbart News. But there's also no reason to believe news media or official offices on "your" side of the turf war. They will all lie to you. Watch like they are doing, closely, and make your own decisions.
You're leaking quite a lot of information to the provider if the encryption is per-object. Not saying this necessarily matters in your use case, but good to be aware of the limitat a lot can be deduced from file sizes, timeline of accesses, and access pattens of files. And most importantly of course you're still trusting the provider for availability.

For example if you saved a folder of mp3 files using the rclone crypt functionality that you downloaded from a known BitTorrent, it would be easy for an adversary to match that set of known sized objects with high confidence at the storage provider end, or from observing encrypted network traffic (which in the S3 case leaks object size through traffic patterns) and deducing object sizes from there.
Academic Publishers Are the Real Threat to Science, Not Sci-Hub
Could we say that we simply don't know what is going on in the universe?

We (well, Einstein & Co. I was not involved.) made models about how the universe works. Then when looking at the broader scope, we noticed that the models differ from reality. So instead of saying the models are wrong, we invented "dark matter". Some unmeasurable type of matter that is responsible for the difference of how reality behaves in contrast to our models. And then we invented dark energy.

Now to make our models "work" we have to assume 85% of the matter in the universe is made of dark matter. And 68% of energy in the universe is made from dark energy.

How about just saying that our models do not work on large scales?

I have a lot more arguments that prove dark matter is a hoax. Let me write them down in dark text (an unmeasurable form of text). Here we go:
Yes, all Rust devs get infected with the PROSELTIZE virus. Other languages are desperately trying to develop vaccines.
Having it without a prompt is also not a acceptable situation.

I think HTML should be split in web sites, and applications. If a page wants to use the camera, or vibration, etc., it should take you to "Programs & Features" or the Apps settings and say:

"This website XXX is a program, not a page. Do you want to install this program?"

I would even consider make the list of "programs" visible at all times on the edge of the last start screen page, and limit it to 12 programs or so, in order to prevent people from installing all kinds of junk.
This particular Bose model is pretty popular, and has been produced for many years.

I hope statistics exist on how many of them burst into flames. I'd like to compare it to the number of people who choked on a cereal breakfast, or fell from a stairway at home, or other such random accidents with normally benign things. I suspect that the headphones will be no worse than many other common household items, including the low-tech ones.
I've never used or tried any ergonomic keyboards.

Last time I looked into it ~10 years ago I dismissed them since there didn't seem to be sufficient evidence to support the bold claims they made.
