Not sure about the US but in Europe I'm pretty sure that would fall under commercial use and not allowed on a PPL.

Of course that would be the least serious infraction if he did it on purpose. Which I agree it has all the hallmarks of.
Very early on in my journey learning to write software, I wrote a “guestbook” feature for my personal site (also in PHP). Prior to that, the only code I’d successfully written and actually shipped (beyond PHP templating of data I fully controlled, even if I didn’t understand it) read ID3 metadata from MP3s (my own music). Point is I had never written anything that handled user input.

I was also proud of my accomplishment and shared it with my nearest tech community. It was, if I recall, less than an hour before someone had exploited the obvious XSS vulnerability. At the time I was aghast and felt like it was a cruel thing to do. And while I know better than that now…

Here’s the thing: that tech community, even the whole internet, was a lot smaller then. The person who exploited my naive first program accepting user input claimed responsibility and explained why. The other people around were both knowledgeable enough and kind enough to help me understand that that person was a friendly who meant no harm.

Folks trying to learn new things now won’t be in a community like that by default, and probably won’t know to look for it. And the people who take advantage of that are clearly more malicious and not friendlies.

I don’t know what the takeaway from my “here’s the thing” is, for HN, but I do think we’d all be better off if we pay close attention to being welcoming/supportive for noobs, and also strive to make learning tech less of a risk when inevitably first steps go wrong.
The world moved away from Hadoop and MapReduce… onto what?
Dumber than average shouldn't mean illiterate.
I used the book "The Italic Way to Beautiful Handwriting" by Fred Eager. The italic method, in contrast to printing or cursive, seemed to have enough connected letters to write quickly, but without insisting on connecting everything like cursive, even when it made writing awkward. I also followed some of the movement drills from a manual for the Palmer method, a cursive pre-typewriter "business" handwriting style from the early 1900s that was meant to be written quickly and legibly all day, but which some folks think looks too old-fashioned today.
I had high hopes for the MYLE, which I saw at CES 2016, but it never ended up getting built.

In the video it sounded like he thought the plane had a water jug in it and was talking about how thirsty he was. That part was reasonable to me. But as a non-pilot the flight itself was pretty sketchy.
I work in infosec doing defensive stuff. I am not worried about ransomware in the least, at least not on its own, the thing you have to understand is, when all these companies get a ransomware attack, it isn't always a resuly of the ransomware worming its way through computers. These days operators manually find lateral movement paths and get domain admin and deploy the ransomware using GPO or something. Bare minimim compliance to Microsoft tiered security model prevents most of these attacks and there is a lot you can do to prevent this.

Sabotage attacks don't worry me. I hope the bad guys don't read this but what worries me is targeted intrusions where the bad guys do corporate espionage and IP theft but use ransomware as a smokescreen. 10K filings, product announcements. Heck, sit silently on the right guy's inbox and you can do your own insider trading scheme and it pays more than ransomware.

To me ransomware is like holding up a bank but you only take the cash in cash registers, rob everyone in the lobby and create a commotion and down time for the bank and leave. Don't get me wrong? I think ransomware will continue to be popular, I am just not that concerned because the team i am on takes adequate measures to stop your run of the mill ransomware gang.
The most charitable explanation here is that this is Bills first encounter with open source and uh humans
Hell, 5% is worth the effort if it's little enough effort or the condition is severe enough. 80% is incredible if it holds up.
> you also list your pronouns

Wait, is... gender a US-centric category? People in central Europe use pronouns, right? Did Europe get rid of gender when I wasn't looking? You weren't lying, y'all really don't like categories.

Heck, I thought some sections of Europe were struggling with a lot with transphobia right now, and that people were struggling to get rid of socially prescriptivist attitudes towards gender categories, but apparently I was wrong and Europe smashed the gender binary and turned sex/gender into such a fluid multifaceted spectrum that pronouns themselves are now obsolete and unnecessary in normal language.

Which... congrats, I guess, sounds pretty cool.
This is a great comment. I've always been a little uncomfortable with the thought of this magnetic treatment in a way I couldn't put into words and this nails it.

I'm willing to trust, perhaps naively, that everyone is getting the same Prozac tablets. But how does the skill of the practitioner and maintenance of their magnetic treatment device affect outcomes? It's almost like a surgery, but I'm not sure who's actually been trained to perform it.

Which isn't to say someone shouldn't do it, just my own feelings based on limited understanding. Perhaps if I knew more I would have greater faith.

Timestamp ints get constantly casted back and forth between seconds, microseconds, and nano seconds. its an absolute mess everywhere. This are fixed point floats.
Everything sensor related, and countless logging, file or anywhere wait_for or timeouts are used are typical usecases, and indirectly whenever people need to do simple things like basic arithmetics on timestamps.
The code will either contain some precision change or a unfixed bug related to overflow of one or more kinds.

So int64 is half, and I was off by a factor of three doing it in my head... I was wrong no doubt about that. But the order of magnitude is the problem, it should be millenia, or millions of years, not a few centuries.
How do you make money on web3 without the upfront loading of cash into a crypto wallet?
The cast isn't the part that causes the failure (C says that function pointers don't have to be safely representable within `void *` or any other fundamental pointer type, but they are on both x86(-64) and Itanium[1]).

The failure happens because the programmer assumed that the code is "self contained" and position-independent, both of which are concepts outside of the C abstract machine.

[1]: Function pointers on Itanium are actually fat, but IIRC most compilers hide this by making the "function pointer" point to some kind of thunk instead.
> many hospitals/healthcare facilities don't allow writing above the 8th-grade level. So, expressive, detailed, and stylized writing are all easily possible at the 8th-grade level.

Not so. Rather, demonstrably not possible, at least not by some writers currently assigned to the task of rewriting instructions for prescription medicines. Subtleties of dose timing, interactions with other medicines and such I have seen mangled into ambiguity, or dropped altogether. So I was able to medicate myself with a reasonable degree of confidence.

Fortunately, in my case, the manufacturer's original advice as written for physicians was preserved, bottommost of three, behind maddening "plain English" rewrites from both insurer and local medical group.

I'm not itching to try it again. Let me tell you about the SECOND trip.. that one was much more interesting, and why I'm keeping my options open.. Caveats: If 4g was good, why not 6. I'd heard that you should be in a good "head space" for shrooms, well, I wasn't. My spirits were a bit low, so going in I wasn't sure what might happen.

The second trip was 6 grams, ground with orange juice. After ~20 minutes felt nausea but no happiness in this "come up" phase [0]. I tried reading Dune (again) on my phone but the characters would visually "s e p a r a t t e" and stretch out.

The peak [1] was much more sorrowful; I cried a lot. My trip sitter [2] said I vented a lot, almost vindictive in how I stripped away relationships, friendships, and people from my past that, well, I'd never gotten over. To me, it felt like I was shedding these heavy chains I'd been carrying around. I also, at long last, said "bye Felicia" to a an abusive, lontime "best friend" and walked away. Parse your contacts: How many that you never talk to, and have no interaction at all?

Marijuana was exceptional here for giving me a gentle cloud to settle on. In the words of Big Chris: "It's been emotional" [3] Since then mood has been the same as the last trip, all good.

I think the risk of dying in a crash are still too high. If I had a parachute and a knew there was nobody else who would be hurt if I bailed out, I think the parachute is safer. The plane is going to crash either way.
My beef with posts like this is that they think it’s sufficient to make an abstract claim without offering specific supporting examples of the differentiation they’re claiming exists.

I wrote a post trying to unpack the abstract claim using specific hypothetical scenarios [1]. I’ve never seen a single pro-Web3 post engaging at the same level of specificity.

The standard is pointless when what you’re trying to implement is non-portable or architecture-specific by nature. At that point, your compiler implementation and target architecture are what matters.
NERSC is part of DOE’s Office of Science. Nuclear weapon development is done by DOE’s National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), which sponsors labs like Lawrence Livermore and Los Alamos. It definitely isn’t NERSC, NNSA has its own dedicated supercomputers for weapons work.
Postgres's dominance is well deserved, of course. My only concerns with it, both are actively worked on, are bloat management (significant for update heavy workloads and programmers used to the MySQL model of rollback segments) and the scaling of concurrency (going over 500 connections). Bloat was taken over by Cybertec[1] after stalling for a bit and is funded (yay), while concurrency was also enhanced out of Microsoft [2]. All in all, an excellent future for our beloved Postgres.

There is always a "we" as soon as there is more than 1 individual. Pretending otherwise is extremely dangerous.

Thanks for the regurgitated platitudes. Your stern appraisal of CEOs is duly noted.

> Before spending shareholder's money on an expensive project she should have checked if it makes sense to spend money on it. If she made the wrong call she alone is responsible for the mistake.

On what basis do you assume Flickr’s revamp was an expensive project? I have no idea what it really cost, but to a multi-billion dollar company, I doubt it was really that much.

Sure, she owns the failed revamp though.

> Not true. They fully revamped the user experience, and Marissa Mayer was actively involved in the project.

“They” referred to the company prior to Mayer becoming CEO. Yahoo owned Flickr for 7 years before Mayer took over. Flickr felt stagnant for most of that time.

It’s really weird to be ratholing on Flickr as if it was the reason for Yahoo failing. If Mayer had ignored Flickr like the previous 2 CEOs, Yahoo would have failed just as surely and Flickr’s decline would have been just as rapid.

More n is required, yes, but small n results like this are a noteworthy step in the right direction.

There is often good reason why n is small. Statistically significant results like this one pave the way to future experiments with larger n.
Good question, but I have a good answer: you need to understand the amount of consumer surplus of each product. If a wallet cost $50k, you wouldn’t buy it, you’d shove your credit cards in your pants pocket or find a workaround. But if a monitor cost $100k, you or your company would simply buy it and get on with your life - assuming you’re a professional programmer. Monitors have a ridiculous amount of consumer surplus. Once you accept that a monitor is worth $100k of consumer surplus, it’s more intuitive that a 10% noticeably better monitor can have 10% more consumer surplus, regardless of the low market price.

And yes, strong vision correction is also potentially worth $250k if you make a programmer’s salary and that’s the only way you can work. It’s just important to operationalize “10% better” as a measure of how much it helps your output. If your productivity increases 10%, it’s worth an additional $25k cost.

One more example: Imagine McDonald’s Big Mac Value Meals cost $1 each and every other meal cost $50. Assuming you make a $100k+ salary, I think you should opt for the $50 meals quite often, even though most of the country is eating Big Macs and thinking you must be crazy.
Because they absolutely don't need to have it.
> This feels really weird to me. My whole point in the piece was that non-Autistic people shouldn't be given unilateral leave to talk over and in place of Autistic people, but that's exactly what you're doing.

You're literally giving yourself leave to "talk over and in place of" a "severely autistic" child, and their care-giving parent.

This is a parent concerned over "who will take care of my son when I'm gone."

Do you really believe that by arguing "Severe Autism" vs. "High Support Needs", you're improving their situation, improving general state of discourse, or even raising an issue that matters at all relative to their serious concern?

> Of course you do, and you seem like a parent who is invested in their kid's future. Thank you.

This is inappropriate and patronizing. You're not in a position to approve, disapprove, or thank a parent on behalf of their autistic child.

> All I'm asking is that you take the time to listen to Autistic adults, as well.

As an now-adult who was also diagnosed with ADHD and autism, all I'm asking is that you take the time to listen to other Autistic adults when we strenuously disagree with your using a DSM diagnosis, which we just so happen to share, as some sort of bludgeon to police and coerce other people's words and behavior.

Except that most diagnoses of dyslexia in the US are highly questionable. Basically anyone with any difficulty is assigned it.

“ After the Social Democrats (SPD) and the Green Party won the elections in 1998, the government of Gerhard Schroeder (SPD) reached what became known as the “nuclear consensus” with the big utilities (in 2000). They agreed to limit the lifespan of nuclear power stations to 32 years.”

“ In the wake of the nuclear catastrophe in Fukushima, Japan, on 11 March 2011, the same Merkel government decided on 14/15 March to suspend the 2010 lifetime-extension for a three-month period, and then to mothball Germany's seven oldest reactors for the same period (known as the nuclear moratorium). The accident in Fukushima and the reaction by Germany's federal government … In June 2011, the government proposed to shut down eight nuclear plants for good and limit the operation of the remaining nine to 2022.”

In this discussion it’s irrelevant that majority voted for it. 2022 phase out is a knee jerk reaction to Fukushima. It’s very easy to verify this by just searching for “Fukushima Germany”. Fukushima had nothing to do with the age of reactors, nor the design. It was down to the placement of the power plant. None of that could have ever happen in Germany.

It should have been 2030.
