I'll admit that I simply don't understand people's passion for foraging mushrooms.

You walk around and find these things that taste good (with a slight risk of illness)... so, ok? I go to Whole Foods every week where I'm surrounded by thousands of amazing delicacies, more than I'll ever be able to sample, yet no one makes foraging at Whole Foods their hobby.

Would love to hear from anyone who's passionate about mushrooms, to understand where it comes from.
> Would dedicated engineering time for a short time improve the situation and benefit the whole organization?

This applies to literally every software company ever. There's also too much vague corporate jargon to make it clear what specifically the role involves that makes it meaningfully different from DevOps.

> A different but equally important part of the team’s job is to architect, build, and refactor major software components

> handle multiple, sometimes conflicting priorities ... willingness to pitch in whenever necessary to get things done

Treating systems architecture with the same "ship it" mentality of product features is asking for a world of hurt.
I just updated my list of financial accounts/life insurance (acct number, type of account, where it held and phone number) for my wife. She's the primary beneficiary on all the accounts, so it should be straightforward to collect those funds if I die.

Do not share passwords for investments/banks. This is against TOS for most financial firms, and someone logging in to your account after you die and making changes is a big problem. Financial institutions have procedures for dealing with death and distribution to beneficiaries.
Foraging at Whole Foods is shoplifting and people do that.
> In practice URLs often cannot be more than 2K characters. It's also more work to type and bytes to transmit and harder to see on small screens.

The longest vanity TLD I could find was .travelersinsurance. Two dozen characters are nothing more than a rounding error in the 2k character limit. You routinely pass 10 times more characters in path and query parameters than you do in the domain name.

Also, how often do people type in URLs instead of clicking links?

Also, keep in mind that some browsers are starting to hide path and query parameters in the address bar and instead only show the domain name. I presume that makes domain names and TLDs more relevant in terms of name recognition.
A Few Notes on Problem Solving
Exactly this. Including gas as green energy looks like a joke. Even 270g of CO2 per kWh is an awful number. No idea if that's lobbyists work but "if you have no idea what something is about, then it is about the money".
Well, the autopilot was disabled, and the flight director (which at a 1 sentence level is a visual indication of what the autopilot would do) was trying to keep the plane level at the configured altitude

The flight director did the right thing — displayed how it would manage level flight

The pilot did the wrong thing - copied the misconfigured flight director instead of flying the plane
It will be fixed with the next OTA update. /s
Royal Air Maroc had a senior captain bounce an ATR-72 off the surface of the ocean through pure bad flying in 2018. Literally the belly of the plane scraped the ocean. Basically avoided killing 50 people by a few inches. Wasn’t gonna report it, but the damage gave him away.

Look up air Maroc flight 439
I got 0 on a 9 year old 144hz TN panel... as others said the hardest part was trying to use the interface itself
I’m confused by this. If you have the username, the hashed password, the salt, and the algorithm used, all present in the config file, then what’s the difference between doing what caddy does here and just having the plaintext password in the config file? Isn’t that just the same thing but with extra (known) steps?

Not trying to be intentionally dense, genuine confusion/question.
For things you're developing, yea. But when you have other Java services deployed like elasticsearch, hadoop, etc. These scanners are still helpful.

I say this from weeks for this log4j ordeal.
At the same time, don’t conflate engineering skill with director level management skill, they are two vastly different things.
Yes, if I do a full restore, I expect all files and settings to be restored, including bugs present at the time the backup was made.

Sorry, not following. Can you explain how efficiencies in GPU production interact with network difficulty to produce lower GPU prices? I'm not finding much in the literature.
Can’t figure out a way to contact you from your About section —- I’m a ML engineer with an early interest in algorithmic trading, would be interested in brainstorming ideas.
I clicked on your HN profile and saw on your blog that you got diagnosed with ADHD this year. Congratulations on your diagnosis. I have ADHD and it absolutely sucks. I'm glad that you can finally get treated for it :)
> Just don't go on looks alone

But that is exactly the point.

You don't pick a mushroom because it "looks" like the one on the picture. You pick a mushroom after you have familiarised yourself with other ones that look closest to what you are picking.

People with no experience don't yet know which differences are and which aren't significant.
Why would this impact the colloquial meaning of "green" in any way? Do people usually adapt their informal language to be consistent with EU regulations?
Not to support interventionist policies (or to deny that some of these interventions have cause great suffering) but the fundamental cause-and-effect implication here is highly disingenuous.

For example - counting all 7.1 million refugees in the Syria conflict (which had its own internal roots, and probably would have played out about the same regardless of any attempt at intervention) as entirely due to a "U.S. post-9/11 war".
I would say that prior to the pandemic, the site was fairly strict about policing off topic, particularly political posts. Coinciding with the pandemic, I find that the technical focus of this site has been diluted.

As I recall, there was an external campaign to politicize this site and I guess to some extend it appears as that has been at least partially successful to me.
I tried just now and it seems the answer is "no" on comment indentation. I don't see any indentation at all, everything is a flat list, left justified.

Edit: tried with elinks as well, same (more or less) thing. :-(
Go on, then, compare away. Both in terms of deaths/kWh and CO2/kWh, nuclear is equivalent or better than most renewable you could name. There are arguments against nuclear, but these aren’t them.
China to scrap subsidies for electric vehicles
What prevents the hacker from cloning the whole web-page of, say, facebook.com login and phish users for credentials this way? This is not a hyphotetical thing, Kali Linux even bundles a utility program for that.

Compared to that, one icon, that is the same as that of the company, is not that threatening.

Not only that, but if you consider a sign in form that wouldn't have a logo, it would be way easier to trick user into putting their credentials in, because the user wouldn't be able to differentiate them. Also OAuth is always branded AFAIK.

Users may also notice discrepancies in the logo, if it was cloned poorly. Though I can't think of a way someone couldn't forge a logo given all the possibilities. Adobe Illustrator can trace images into svg and there's plenty of companies' svg logos just in the google search.
They hire a lot of international pilots.
I also had that impression until a flight attendant of Virgin Airlines insisted on me keeping them closed during takeoff.
> more unknowns regarding the vaccine than covid itself

This is categorically false. Whatever sources you are getting your information about vaccines from is lying to you, and probably also lying to you about a wide variety of other topics.
Maybe they need a more graduated colour scale. Combined cycle natural gas could be "amber" or something like that
> People are going to notice this and call bullshit on that.

And they will be right. If it emits carbon it isn't green, it really is that simple.

By giving themselves this loophole the EU is undermining the market forces that will make green energy viable. We don't need to find economical energy sources anymore. We need to dump money into green energy now and last month and a decade ago. The price doesn't matter, just build true green energy and subsidize it until it becomes economical.
This kind of feels like the people that were saying the package ‘node’ already existed, and therefore should not be replaced, since there were many people using it to do their aux audio input or something.

If it’s actually widely used then I’d have heard of it by now. My suspicion is that it’s widely used in a specific circle.
"Live in the now and make the now the way you want it to be."

Sometimes (most of the times for the "normal" person), this is impossible, contradictory, conflicting...His approach to the subject is realistic, effective...Does it sound good? definitely no...That's life..

You can look at it in a positive way though...work with the resources you have to get the best from them...maybe not the life you want, but the best one you can get from your current reality.
To be influential, it would help if it were sold with one of the most popular systems. There were only around 1.7 million Apple IIgs systems sold.

The Commodore 64 sold the most systems but so many owners only played games on it that the manual probably wasn't the most influential book on BASIC.

Exempting system manuals, the BASIC Computer Games books were probably it.

microG only works when signature spoofing is enabled for it, so if you have microG working, then that prerequisite should be met. (Edit: wrong, correction below)

I haven't checked every Android distribution, but I can confirm that TTS voice downloads in Speech Services for Google works on LineageOS for microG.

The original eSpeak project[1] that eSpeak NG was forked from did get abandoned, and eSpeak also has an older Android implementation[2] that also got abandoned.

Edit: I'm surprised that microG works at all without signature spoofing, but based on your experience, I assume that Speech Services for Google needs either Play Services or microG (with signature spoofing enabled).

Prevents collaboration with others, ability to rollback to a specific release to test a bug, partially developing multiple ideas.

All of that is possible manually, but it is doing version control by hand. There are plenty of great tools out there to simplify that process. And if you start automating your manual custom process, you just end up at your own version control system that is something additional you have to mantain.
Nuclear investments desperately need to be recognized as green so you don't have oxymoronic policies similar to Germany's current plan where you're decommissioning nuclear to become more "green" yet producing much more carbon dioxide.
I’ve been interested in making an open source version of the Seeing AI app (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/ai/seeing-ai) with a more limited scope. Contact me if this sounds inline with your ideas.
It so needs solving. Everyone should be using upgraded jars. Except as a stopgap, you shouldn't rely on patched Jars.
External campaign? Where did that come from? Is there something you could point to? (sorry for being that guy)
Dystopian. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

I will not purchase a vehicle with big-brother spyware like this installed.
Yeah. I take this a step further, FWIW: I often look at something and think I know what is wrong, but I still force myself to prove it before allowing myself to try it, as the goal is to get better enough to not make the mistake in the future as well as be sure it works rather than merely looking correct for some "test".
Yep. So close you can call it equal, unless future deaths from groundwater pollution where to happen from leakage. So lets discount that and focus on the side which allocates capital and brings projects to completion. The cheapest renewables are currently a magnitude cheaper per KWH.
> oh and because of europe we import electricity from germany that is burning coal for it

This is a gross over-simplification. Most European countries are both importers and exporters at any point in time, but France is a notable net exporter, and actually stabilises the German grid.

The French government is inconsistent and unbelievably short-sighted, but not because it wants more electric heating. We need to get rid of gas as soon as possible for any uses that does not absolutely require it. Electricity and heat pumps are safer and better for domestic uses.
IFR?
The interpretation of the policy reads like "It's not greenwashing, I promise." It comes across as more delay to assist profiteering on dirty, extractive FFs and distract from the climate change emergency by not addressing net carbon negative energy production.

Solar and pumped energy storage are great, but we need fusion power ASAP too.
Okay, I had to make a few adjustments, but here is a lower resolution version. I verified that I can read the text easily on my phone.

Yes, I was wondering how you avoid querying against a partially updated database given that (if I understood correctly) the database is split across multiple files that (I think) get updated independently.
It is definitely relevant because again, at a fundamental level, the mainstay Clio-and-others don't have a great way to track what are essentially staging vs. production of the evidence in the claims file.

Getting medical records from private provider X is really:
- Should they exist because treatment was provided in the past?
- Do they still exist in reality (some private providers have very harsh retention policies - shred after 7-10 years)
- Did they get the request?
- Did they respond correctly to the request?
- Does the response contain helpful information for any claim?
- Has it been submitted?
- Has it been submitted but not acknowledged?
- Has it been acknowledged but not for the probative value we judged it internally?

Like - that's just a very SMALL part of the daily process of tracking that goes on everyday for every client.

The claims file contains some n# of pdfs when I become rep. I do work in the background to review those explicit contents, make implicit judgments, and work further in the background on the creation/requesting of evidence to be staged for possible inclusion/submission to the VA. In the meantime, VA is further adding to the claims file with every letter/memo/exam/set of VA medical records.

VSOs are overly burdened and sometimes ill-fit for certain parts of the process, but they have always only truly excelled at filing new, initial claims or new claims for increases - not appeals or anything requiring nuance. Attorneys have really only been involved in the process in a major way for less than 15 years versus over generations of the VSOs but attorneys assisting veterans now outnumbers help from VSOs for the first time within the last year. Our average odds are also higher for success - it's something like 12% do it yourself, 22% VSO, 32% with help from an attorney. I can't recall exactly but it's in the annual reports of the VBA and BVA.
I think the post you were replying to was using "pass" to mean "pass on the candidate" i.e. not move forward in the interview/hiring process. The point of such recruiter screens is to avoid an engineer seeing in a coding screen that the candidate has no chance in hell of success.
I'm very curious to see how this plays out over the next year:

1. BTC dominance seems to be getting lower

2. Ethereum PoS seems very likely to launch this year IMO

3. Alt chains which run on PoS like AVAX and SOL have been eating into Ethereum's market share of the smart contract space. Newly onboarded retail users to crypto have been priced out of Ethereum due to fees over the past year. The alt chains running PoW seem to have no real usage.

4. Fed raising interest rates could dampen the growth of crypto asset prices

If I put myself in the shoes of a miner running GPU's, once the merge happens I only see these options:

1. I switch to a chain that is still profitable for GPU's. None of these have much demand for block space and unless that changes, other profit minded miners will be dumping the token.

2. Switch to some kind of P2P GPU-aaS like Render or Livepeer. I haven't been following this space to closely but I doubt it would have the same returns as mining Ethereum over the past years.

3. Exit out of mining and sell GPU's
> I wouldn’t support support that argument by holding up Python and its HTTP situation as exemplary.

I wasn't holding it up as exemplary. I was using it as an example to show how other language ecosystems have reasoned about what gets included in the stdlib. I can't think of another top20 language that ships fuzzing in the stdlib.

>The department, which says it takes more illegal weapons off the street than any other local police force in the United States, said that it took a record 12,088 guns off the street in 2021.

I don't know who knows this and who doesn't but getting a legal gun in Illinois (especially Chicago) is very hard; Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) cards have 6-12 month wait times. On the other hand, in Indiana it's open season (so to speak)

>Indiana is a shall-issue state with Licenses being issued by the Indiana State Police. There is no License required to purchase a firearm, and firearms do not need to be registered.

This is a fact that is very conveniently omitted by the right-wing media when they castigate democrat run Illinois.
As regular reader of /new with showdead=yes enabled in my profile (to see anything auto-flagged by algorithms) I estimate I upvote 1-2 submissions per page, a page is 30 entries I think. Some submissions are automated, some users submit every blog post of their company, there's some outright generic spam. I'm rarely unhappy what I see on the frontpage and https://news.ycombinator.com/best pretty much aligns with the kind of news and discussions I'm coming here for.

I imagine that the mental adjustment from sphere to almost but not quite a sphere must have been harder than a switch from flat earth to spherical. You just expect reality, if it matches a certain mathematical principle, to match perfectly.
Seriously worth repeating. HR is NOT your friend. I learnt this the hard way.

HR's core function is to protect the company from litigation by employees. The HR management is highly unlikely to side with you against upper management no matter how much you are in the right.
I wish more communities these days had "preserving the signal-to-noise ratio" as a cultural value.
Gave it another shot. It's not bad at all.
From the outside it seems to be in maintenance mode. It hasn't received new features in a decade (other than the port to .NET Core, if that counts). The Windows team has staffed it with a skeleton crew (a manager and 2 devs last I checked). They don't have bandwidth to review most community PRs, and even the .NET team doesn't get responses to issues: https://github.com/dotnet/wpf/issues/3811

idk, I hope I'm wrong but they have been promising improvements for a while and I'll believe it when I see it.
this sounds amazing,keep us posted
Not all positions require a clearance, but most citizens eventually get one. Life as a foreign national can be difficult if you are at SNL. And if you are from a sensitive country it is even more difficult.
Without knowing much about this Flight Director system, it’s surprising to me it would even attempt to operate in such a configuration—taking off to an altitude of zero feet. I would think it would just display some sort of message or code that’s the equivalent of “you people are on your own with that shit”.
Copilot is open to public. No waiting list. (AFAIK)
If that the data was encrypted in a way that was easy to defeat, and the reporter specifically decrypted the data using a method that would not be generally available or known to a layperson without having specific tech knowledge…that reporter is going to have a tough time defending against a “hacking” claim—especially in a state with an overly broad legal definition about accessing unauthorized data. They capitalized on the data and benefitted by writing a story about it.

As a juror your job is to convict or acquit based upon the law and jury instructions given to you. Your job is not to convict or acquit based upon your opinion on what the law should be.
Translations have their own copyright.

And so does the publisher for the design of the printed book.

I wonder how many teams of working engineers would get them right without cramming?
> I’m never going to remember a domain with a silly tld.

I doubt this assertion is grounded in reality. Sites that resort to puns from cc TLDs like lobste.rs don't suffer from name recognition problems, and no one ever had any problem remembering twitch.tv.
People like to enjoy nature in their own way. Some people like to rock climb, which is a very dangerous activity. Others like to forage mushrooms, which comes with its own danger.
The answer is that every time they green-wash, the problem simply isn't solved, and the fight to solve it properly must continue.
There isn't much in these planes that works "coincidentally" because of a previous flight -- almost all important state has to be reconfigured each flight. The article is over-indexing on the flight director's altitude setting. These guys missed many basic things, like rotating at V1 speed and in general monitoring the plane's situation.
