- Save the $2. It's not a ton, but use $2 as a starting point to save more every week. Treat every dollar that you spend like the $2 that you saved. Is it worth spending? Can you save it or invest it instead?

- Buy dental floss if you don't have any already. Your gums will thank you, and you'll be significantly less likely to have bone loss and have teeth loosen up or fall out.

- Buy an apple or two at the grocery store. Start eating more fruit. The fiber will keep you full longer. You'll see the pounds drop on the scale.

- For $8 a month, you can purchase many mass paperback books or ebooks. Find topics or genres that interest you. You're probably more likely to enjoy the book than win a significant lottery (maybe unless you absolutely hate reading).

- Set the $8 a month aside for your child's education or needs.

- For $96/year, you can probably buy a warm pullover or jacket. About 7 years ago, I paid maybe $90 plus tax for a Patagonia jacket/fleece. I wore it yesterday when it was snowing outside.

- Uniqlo and other stores sell underwear and socks pretty cheap, and they actually last a long time. It's nice to have extra pairs, especially if you were busy and didn't do the laundry.
NestJS is what I use for my website, https://www.codehawke.com. I have no idea if this provides any speed burst over fastapi, but I'll say it's a lot of code making Nestjs run. It can't be a good choice for basic static/serverless apps. These benchmarks are questionable.
Consider finding a B Corp to work for.
A bookrest is something I didn't know I needed until I heard of it. If you don't mind me asking, what position(s) do you usually read in?
The Weinsteins started out as experts at speaking a lot of words, while saying very little. But after testing the culture war waters, have committed fully to anti-vax grifting. Id suggest that anyone reading take this recommendation with a grain of salt, and that you reevaluate your opinion of Bret. Even given that the new variant has changed the landscape…
None of the above.

Now it's pretty much all of the above. Maybe I should try heroin again. For science!

Edit: Seriously though, at that time I also tried/used a number of other substances and none of them were anywhere remotely close in the terms of "needing to get another fix soon".

Edit2: I subscribe to the idea that it's largely individual. I might be a lazy enough person that the calmness of heroin speaks to me, while I can keep my distance to coke or amphetamines? Or some explanation beyond that. In reality the interplay is likely a lot more complex than that.
Apps feel snappier on Linux probably because I'm hitting at least similar to you.

I've always attributed it to Windows Defender and all it's subcomponentes or sister components (Credential Guard, ...)
I wonder if deleting a LastPass account with the devtools opened would have showed us the full error message going over the network. Or maybe the server is truly just sending back "A".
It's fine to mistrust them, I also generally stay away from UPlay, but I still don't like taking accusations like this as facts without more evidence. And if it is indeed true that the person did buy games on that account, there would be evidence to prove it, and I do not see a world where Ubisoft wouldn't restore the account.

It just feels strange to jump to pitchforks though based on so little.
Some ideas:

* What would you be proud to be remembered by after you die? I worked in adtech for a long time. No one is proud of me for that.

* There is a lot of unrealized potential in edtech. I work in education now. If you want to add millions--or even billions--of dollars to future GDP, education is the place to be. Look for an effective company.

* Pay is only worth so much. The last two jobs I took involved significant paycuts, and it was worth every penny to do something I felt was worthwhile for hours that didn't destroy the rest of my life. Never been happier. YMMV, of course.
> Honestly, I don't see how "for babies" could be trademarked since it's a literal phrase describing the product. "For Dummies" is not used literally.

Neither is "For Babies" specific to the series I am describing. The book series is not for babies, as far as I am aware, very few, if any, babies are capable of reading, let alone fully understanding stories that are read to them.

"For Dummies" effectively means using laypersons language to convey complex topics more easily. Not, as you said, to literally mean the readers are of low-intelligence.

Likewise, "For Babies" effectively means using language, images, and story telling to convey complex topics more easily to young children, not just for literal babies.

> Fractional scaling is a mixed bag and a lot of apps have broken or compromised UI when it's in use.

I use 1.5× scaling in Sway, and haven’t observed even the slightest problem in any Wayland app. (I also use the high-DPI patches for XWayland, and run it at 3×, so that it’s an integer multiple of my scaling factor, a minor visual improvement on the very few X11 things I use that is probably not worth it.) I will note, however, that Firefox is rendering content at 2× and downscaling; setting the experimental widget.wayland.fractional_buffer_scale to 1.5 distinctly improves rendering, but had some very annoying bugs when I tried it several months ago which became debilitating maybe a couple of months ago, so I gave up on it.
Hi! Hack Club is trying to build a positive and very meaningful space for the teenagers who take part. We are a nonprofit, and nearly everything done is open source. Doing the work, I’m very often doing the sort of things that got me first excited about computers when I was younger.

I must confess, I hadn't actually read the 2nd half.

Also that I'd mis-read the question - I'd assumed it was being played with one of the variations, but the variation being used wasn't shared with the participants.

I was always awful at reading the question..

Also my 'gut random colour' was red, but got blue back from google. Maybe there's something about red being a more assertive colour - or maybe it just helps to identify people who googled this article before an interview.
The point of my comment is that if a person finds the world a "shitty place" and doesn't think that it's ridiculous that they can't find a positive industry to work in, they have a problem.

And I believe that problem will not be solved with whatever industry they go into, because it's a fundamental problem of psychology and outlook.

That's my constructive advice. Thousands of years of humans have managed to find meaning without hating everything, and the era we live in isn't uniformly worse enough to think those humans had it easier than we did.
> with Wayland, which does scaling exactly like macOS

I believe that depends entirely on the desktop environment. Sway does real fractional scaling rather than the idiotic downscaling way.
[There a plenty of examples of nations successful outside the EU]

But not nations actually in, you know, Europe.
I try to look for work that causes the least possible harm rather than try to find something that causes no harm, because that's almost impossible. And also, if you find that job, the competition for it is so fierce can you really claim that by you having it you've put any more good into the world than if the next person had it?

Don't be disheartened. Like anything else in life you have to sort of slowly pivot in the right direction. If you've only just started thinking about this sort of thing and you're serious about it, it's going to get real uncomfortable. But it's totally worth it.
I like this framework. Is this only applicable for debugging projects that are already in motion, but going poorly?

I was trying to think if it could also be used to shape the discussion and documentation in the planning/design phase. But at that stage it seems like you'd first need to declare WHO is responsible for deciding what the appropriate WHY/WHAT are?
Incentive is tough. You end up with a percentage of toxic moderators in people who are looking to fill a social need in their lives, burning themselves out "volunteering", or people looking for power or status and internet points. It's one of the cases where a steem like cryptocurrency could work to correct for the toxic incentives, but nobody's figured out how to make it work yet.
Its really impressive the consistent level headed quality that Sean Carrol produces. He might be less popular because of it, but he’s not yet peddled controversy as content. Which is rare when the incentives suggest otherwise

There's a lot to unwrap in your questions, so I won't answer them fully. But I work in a job/industry that I consider to be meaningful and have done so for about 36 years. I work in the environmental industry, specifically waste management and air pollution control.

When I graduated with a ChemE degree, I decided that I wanted to do something positive for the environment. I didn't know how to start, so I just applied to companies with "environmental" in the name. That's how I got into the air pollution control field. Note: back then the internet was called "books", so I spent a lot of time in the library looking up companies.

Most companies have internal IT departments that write and manage line-of-business software. Find companies that do something _you_ find meaningful and try to get into their IT departments. Once you're in, recognize that no job is going to be seventh heaven every day. Make the best of whatever you're doing. It's a lot easier to do that if you're in tune with the company's mission.

My way is not the only way, of course, but that's what works for me. Good luck.

In the past 7 days, hospitalizations rose by 107% in Florida, matching the rate of COVID19 growth from a week or two ago.

We're _already_ seeing the massive increase in hospitalization numbers in Florida. Its a time-delayed compared to case-counts, but its clearly hitting Florida now. What do you think will happen in the next week (when last week had +300% case count) ??

There was a blip in the data for Christmas / Christmas Eve (I dunno if that's because fewer people were working, or if fewer people decided to go into the hospital). But otherwise, the trajectory and hospital usage number-trend is pretty clear and evident already.
BlurBusters is amazing resource to investigate HFR.

Wow, this is a blast from the past. I played most of the wav files on this site and I think they're really neat.
While that may be true, the recruiter doesn't get paid if you don't get hired. And even if it is a bad match for you, they still want you to get hired so they get paid.
Do you believe that it's possible for safety culture to exist and for government regulation to improve safety, or do you think that all lab accidents around the globe have the same set of root causes? In my opinion, trying to frame this as a global problem is likely the least helpful thing to do. Yes, accidents happen around the world, but, if the article is to be believed, people actively involved with lab practices in China believe there are preventable safety lapses happening that can be fixed by action from the Chinese government. Trying to tie these lapses to something else, with little more than pure conjecture, is not helpful and just derails the conversation.
Some people are switching to the “book time with me” apps, which seem to be a better way to handle this.
Its probably a commercialization of a tech they already had to create to handle project kuiper. Which is Bezos's pet project.
Either a jan at Mac OS or they're going to start locking Full Hi-def content to Windows 11.

It's easier to say "only works with Windows 11" than "requires TPM 2.0 computer".

Also, maybe they want to support Android apps with DRM and wish to do it via TPM. Android apps support is only for Windows 11.
Game is unrealistic: a nonzero number of matches appear.
It's very possible the billing system is separate from everything else.
yeah unfortunately this site has a lot of AWS fans and relatively few Azure fans.

it is fashionable to dislike Microsoft and has been for most of Microsoft's life.
I vaguely recall my family treating the link coming up at any less than 48k as a "hang up and try again" situation (possibly dialing into a different local access number). We did once move into a rental house where we couldn't get better than maybe 28k or 36k, but after a technician came out and swapped which pair of wires we were connecting through we had a much more stable connection that I think was operating at 56k more often than not.
WPF and some other windows APIs support resolution independence, so you don’t have an arbitrary size defined set as 1X. It seems weird that Apple hasn’t been able to do resolution independence yet, and there is some arbitrary 1X that is based on monitor tech that was popular this decade (and definitely not resolutions like 800 x 600 or 640 x 480 resolutions that we used in the 90s).

Eventually, we should at least rename 2X to 1X and move on like we did before.

[OFF] Isn't this one of the guys mentioned at the soundcloud post a long ago about Brazilians and their engineering culture (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14712840) ? Curious if these takeaways can be sort of a protection for that kind of situation.
I wonder if the various CGI human animation systems will be updated with this info.
>Looking at CDC guidance, I’m somewhat confused. 5 days of isolation are fine, but if you look at timelines, respiratory issues seem to start around day 5. So I guess you’re either getting better or taking a turn on day 5. And I’m stuck at my in-laws a few hours from home, just isolating in a room. Everyone else took a test (we were lucky to find them) and tested negative, but we will see if symptoms develop in others in the coming days.

It's very strange that no one has yet pointed out that the new reduction to 5 days are for an asymptomatic case. You're clearly symptomatic.
took about q5 minutes to setup. perhaps you chose the wrong router.
+1 for this. At six months At my current place I am in the top half of engineers for seniority and this has been one of the nicest places I’ve ever worked. At previous companies I’ve been in meetings where high level managers veto prospective hires the entire team wanted because they had been at their current company for “too long” where “too long” was 4 years without moving into management.

It’s not uncommon in my experience to hear engineers say they would view tenures of 2-3 years as a red flag for hiring other engineers, but the hiring managers who actually make the decision have always preferred short tenures of hopping around or staying at one place only if there’s a title change every ~2 years.
> at any company, you will be directly or indirectly providing capital support to AdTech/E-Commerce/Fossil-fuel industries at some level.

At many industries you won't. But it can be quite an effort to find such jobs - and of course succeeding at the interview unless salary/location are suboptimal.
There's a concept of environmental justice, where those most responsible for climate change should have to take the most drastic actions to respond to it. And then there's those who advocate for (or at least strongly insinuate that we should) deny folks access to shared e-bikes because then they'll be forced to walk.
This is one of the things that GPLv3 fixes - there's a "self-healing" clause added.

From section 8 of GPLv3 ("Termination"):

> However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a) provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
Why do people buy and use these things?
And why have they taught their kids to use them? (And what looks like for fun...).

I feel like we're on the verge of an age where every single person is used to, and just has an Alexa/google home voice assist in their house.
Not only is it unnecessary, but as you can see from thia tweet, they're never going to be perfect.
It is rather scary that Omicron is said to give mild cases, causing some I know to not really worry about it.

It is sad that with so little known about Long Covid, the General Practitioners mentioned in the article are telling their patients that it's just anxiety and 'to go home and sort themselves out.'

When the symptoms don't fit a known diagnosis, the default probably should not be 'it is all in your head'.

The 1007 fps he said he got out of the US$6 V2 camera is over 8 times the 125 fps at which exporting the camera from the US requires an arms dealer license: https://www.bis.doc.gov/index.php/documents/regulations-docs... but that only counts if the shutter speed is under 1 μs.

So these cameras should still be safe from ITAR.

What you seem to be missing is that "destaffing" a team of a dozen people is really expensive and painful, and people don't generally sign on to jobs where we say "yeah you'll be doing this for two years and then you'll have to find a new role".

Like I've said twice now, you can solve this problem without stupid business practices, and the you're arguing with a straw man. If you have to say "going too far down this line", you're no longer responding to the argument presented, but a bad faith misrepresentation. That's inappropriate on HN.
This article does not echo my personal experience. I recently left a company. Prior to leaving but after making it know to a few key people that I wasn't likely to stay, I had two exploratory contracts lined up. (Exploratory for me, not them.) Within two weeks, I had a massive offer in front of me from a third company. When I let them others know I was going to take that, there was a minor bidding war. I landed a senior (Head of ...) role with little to no effort and negotiated maintaining advisory roles with non competitive orgs.

I have two decades in my specific eng field. I (very intentionally) have little name recognition but I come highly recommended and have a proven track record. Getting senior roles is not all that difficult, if you have proven yourself and know how to network. I don't look for jobs any more, I consider offers. To me, that's how senior roles should and do work.
The "message" would have to be each vertex's color, separately, rather than the entire graph's coloring at once. Then when the verifier requests the edge for this round, the prover reveals those the commitments for the two vertices on that edge and only those two.

Since the prover doesn't know which edge will be selected and has to commit one color to each vertex, inspecting one random edge per round is enough. They either committed to a 3-coloring and any edge is valid, or they didn't and there's at least one edge we could pick to reject them. The rest of the graph doesn't need to be revealed for us to either gain confidence that they have a coloring or know for certain they do not.

Oaw, you 2 must be young. Remember the wars in end of 80's / beginning of 90's about PPV from satellites and everything was hardware protected? You know who won them? Pirates did. Hardware, software, whatever - if it's made by humans will be unmade by humans as well.
They need to have enough intra-constellation communication to route traffic out to some satellite that can see a base station. They said the "v0.9" satellites that were launching starting this year were all laser equipped and all sats launched this year (and presumably in the future?) would be similarly equipped.
Revenge of the Titans is using the java.util.prefs.Preferences class from the Java standard library.

Looking at the implementation here:
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/4f607f2adac3798c16a62e90...

If the requested directory name has certain "inappropriate" characters in it, it'll encode it using Base64.byteArrayToAltBase64, which is a non-standard base64 encoding using the alphabet defined here:
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/4f607f2adac3798c16a62e90...

If we decode the directory name using that alphabet:

You can see that it was encoding the text:

Nothing to see here, other than some sloppy filename handling in Déjà Dup.

That’s really how it is.

Having lost someone to ILD and then personally going through increasingly debilitating and unnerving (ddx) occipital neuralgia/headache (is there even a difference) I’ve come to understand, however yet to accept fully, that we are on borrowed time that one should just appreciate the good fortune of, until one fine day we have to come face to face with the vast limitations/inabilities of medical science or go through its probability based guesswork while fluctuating between hope and despair.

I am not saying this pejoratively, rather just matter-of-factly.

It’s just sad and defeating.

One of my first tech jobs as a teenager in high school involved a lot of resetting ATI modems connected to portmasters as they oveheated at an isp in the mid 90s. Recently used a related one as a sample in a song for a friend about that era. Three sounds you won't hear today that defined the early 90s for us, a zippo lighter, an x.25 dialup number, and a 1200baud modem handshake
(though may have used 300 for the sample), and then a simple triangle wave. was called "requiem for a hacker." I still can't believe the shit we did when we were kids.

I’ve been to Japan (and NYC and…), so I have a pretty good idea. The system works great in Tokyo, and obviously the bullet train is amazing. In rural areas though, you’re dealing with long train rides and waiting on bus schedules. It can be done, but it seems like a lot of people in those areas just had cars.

It should be done where it’s practical, but in most of the US geographically it isn’t.
Interesting seeing an article about this.

Just this week I was looking to get a continuous glucose monitor. I’ve heard it can really prevent diabetes and help you understand what foods spike your levels.

The fda won’t allow anyone to get these if they aren’t already diabetic.

There’s so many ways we aren’t “free” in this country to do what we want with our bodies.
