Ask HN: How's the Miami Scene?
My wife are seriously considering moving down to Miami from Boston. How's the overall scene? I mean startups, culture, people, etc.

Would love some insights from people who made a similar move.

How are the summers, really? Cost of life? Is Brickell a good place to start?
In the winter, the boot times are ridiculous.
ECMO is a salvage therapy. Even if there were an infinite number of ECMO machines and trained operators that wouldn't significantly increase survival rates.

Well at least it had one positive effect :)
That reply you replied to got flagged, downvoted, murdered.

And it was an extremely tame reply.

Is it just me or is the intolerance for dissent ramping up?
The original title of this submission until it was changed was "Is the Old Testament historically accurate". My response was to that title, no it isn't historically accurate.
You would divert them to some surface streets like 15, 1, 301, 66. You'd ensure they not use 95 by putting up a sign on the onramp that says road closed and you'd leave it unplowed while you focused your efforts on keeping other routes clear. Many trucks would probably just lay up at a gas station.
Exactly. These kinds of papers are a great example of the no true Scotsman fallacy. And even if it were just "revealing" mental illnesses in people who already had them latently, most of them probably could have gone their whole lives without it had they never used drugs, so in practice even that's no different from just causing the illnesses.
My dream is to build a browser to do this for the entire web, using AI/ML to "translate" ad-ridden sites to their pure HTML/CSS counterpart. Lots of pre-trained models can make sense of pages based on visual layout. Seq2seq/summarizer models can work hand-in-hand to take out the cruft.

I imagine a cache of this simple web shared across all browsers.

Imagine translating all PDF manuals, scientific research, and yes, recipes, in this decentralized manner. The dataset would be clean both for human consumption as well as ML training.
The power in your house is significantly less powerful than that in an electric car. There are also clear ways to disconnect the power when working on things in your house, which is not at all as clear in a battery-powered car. They are clearly more dangerous than home electrics.

Also, nobody is "disallowing" anything. You can still open up this car. There is just no reason to.
Yet incidents of viruses/ransomware infecting PCs after clicking attachments/links exist so we need at least a purely functional (file/link in - risk guess out) antiviruses. I generally use VirusTotal but I it doesn't seem reasonable to use it for checking potentially confidential files.

I thought it was pretty much understood the vaccines weren't doing much for contraction of Delta already. We've moved on to "prevents serious illness and death" which is still true for Omicron and ought to be enough for teachers to return to work.

What does this sentence mean? (Grammatically, English is my 2nd language).

That's because Nutmeg or Dramamine don't have as strong of an incentive to abuse.
I want the same for audio. Anyone knows a tool for that?
I don't mean 60s literally. I mean arbitrarily small commits at your own convenience.

You don't need to have even remotely working code when you commit, is the point. You just commit whenever. (It's almost like saving files, just commit.)

I think the word 'commit' might have been a mistake, now that I think about it. Maybe 'snapshot' would have been better.
I don't have a measure of how many bugs it prevents. But I've caught a few in code reviews and people caught a few of mine too. So, it does prevent some.
Because they’re Mercurial.
You should consider why money is so important to you, and if it should be (assuming, of course, you are not starving and can comfortably provide a roof over your head). Plenty of people choose careers that don't pay particularly well but are more fulfilling in some other way (e.g. artists, many social workers, many teachers). If your friends are judging you for not having as much money (not saying you are, but it seems like you might be afraid of this?), it's them that's the problem, not you.

(For context, I have an adequate amount of money that is much smaller than many of my friends who are outside of academia, though larger than my friends who are social workers; but if I were to leave academia I probably could become significantly wealthier, so I can say all this from a place of privilege).

Which is why it’s really nice that you can still buy mass market reliable cars from 2008-2015 that come with zero “electronic bits” (or if they do it’s the kind that just pulls out of the dash.)
Are you familiar with the area? I’ve been here since ‘89. Those streets cannot handle the volume of traffic we’re talking about. There aren’t enough gas stations for the truck volume we’re talking about either.
I get it. It totally sucks. I live in a mobile home, work a job that doesn't pay nearly enough, and used to work jobs that did. I have a family member who married a doctor and they moved into a house that has a second house attached (a mother-in-law suite as it's called). But I have friends who live in small houses, crappy rentals, mobile homes, and we all visit each other, not our houses. What really matters is what you consider is success, a large bank account or a large group of friends.
This may be an explanation for why the metro isn't better in DC, but not the source of the area's problems. Outside the city, most of the area is set up below the intensity of viable urban fabric and is entirely focused on cars. In that system, transit is just an attempt to set up satellite traffic jams where people then spend extra time commuting afterward.

You can't have successful transit while favoring cars. And if people cant get around at both the origin and destination of the trip without a car, then it's a system designed for cars.
TL;DR

What they did is they created yet another approximate solution. Three-body problem is unsolvable, no general closed-form solution exists.

Yeah the economic incentive is the problem also. People just get into it for the money, not because they believe in it. This is the whole issue with crypto currency and web 3.0 too.

It's a bit sad because it never started out as something intended for "make money fast" kind of investors. Bitcoin started as a way to free users from the centralised banks and regulation.
Now is good for me!

Would have been great if they had US ISO keyboard versions as a choice
Almost all basic research is funded by governments. Even private universities in the US get almost all of their research paid for by the government via grants. And the private universities then turn around and use their research expertise, funded by the government, to attract paying students. So they are private organisations, heavily funded by the government, not benefitting the public by providing a University education for free. The European approach is more honest. People pay taxes, the taxes fund Universities, and the Universities do research and education that benefits the tax paying people. That seems to be a less harm approach compared with the US model of private universities. Agree?

I'll ignore everyone else here, but the comment on Dewey from that quote is absurd and a total mischaracterization (no doubt to discredit him because of ideological bias). Ironically, Dewey was the champion and creator of child centered, project based, and competency oriented education. Nothing could be further from either destroying people's reasoning capabilities, or deliberately undermining a person's potential, creativity and intelligence in service of the State. Dewey's rolling over in his grave!
As a first generation immigrant to the US, this is something which bemused me. When I was a kid if I refused to eat veggies, I know my Mom would kick me off the dining table.

In my home, we are trying to instill a little bit of that. Veggies, meat and carbs first. Then fruits and on occasion dessert. My kid knows if he wants fruits (he loves fruit) / dessert, he needs to finish his veggies. Meat and carbs we don't insist too much. My kid eats a no-spice version of what the adults eat. This is mostly cause his day care provides bland food and his taste buds are too sensitive.
Oh fun hack. Store the peanut butter container closed on its side in the fridge. More surface area seems to help the separation issue and the fridge solidifies it so it has less chance to drip or leak.
In my experience we take these estimations and have a conversation or set up a pair.

"Great, Ben and Dara can you handle this together?" To give Ben a chance to grow and Dara a chance to show leadership/mentorship/develop institutional knowledge.

Alternately: "Okay, a bit disparate. Dara (or whomever) how are you thinking about solving this?"
I have two ways of reframing this that help me:

Every time you find yourself comparing yourself to someone richer, also pick out someone poorer and compare yourself to them at the same time. Should that poorer person be a ton more miserable than you? What does that say about how unhappy you should be seeing someone richer than you?

Realize that being close to a bunch of rich people says good things about your choices and not bad things. They have just gotten that final bit of luck to push them over the edge. Every way that you're similar to these people is a set of things you're doing financially correctly. You've weighted the dice in your favor, and you're just waiting for the roll to come up your way.

Context: These helped a ton when my friends were getting rich in startups. Eventually I did catch up to some of them, and they still help a ton when I compare myself to the ones who did way better.

>"the world is a harsh place that doesn't owe anyone anything" is just as much as a subjective value judgement of reality as "the universe is on my side"

Once we establish the validity of "the world is on my side" can be objective (and I think by all factual basis, the world is most definitely objectively not on some people's side), your logical expression now looks like this:

"the world is a harsh place that doesn't owe anyone anything" is just as much as a subjective value judgement of reality as < objective statement >

Logically put you say

Subjectivity_of("the world is a harsh place that doesn't owe anyone anything") >= Subjectivity_of (<Objective Statement>)

which is reduced to:

Subjectivity_of("the world is a harsh place that doesn't owe anyone anything") >= 0

Another words, your statement was meaningless and imposes nothing on the subjectivity of the statement "the world is a harsh place", just lots of word soup about your outrage over perceived ignorance of "millennia of metaphysics that led to modern ways of looking at the world."
At Amherst, students must double mask if they don’t use a KN95.

This at least, has a basis in current scientific knowledge of aerosols and the viability of masks which are lower threshold than N95.

To the rest of the article, I think I sympathise with where this is going: the experience for this cohort of students is dissatisfying. It may not be actually worse than the equivalent prior (life in university during wartime) but for the current generation, it certainly feels as bad, and as incoherent in terms of delivery of education, and experiences. If it were me I'd feel cheated, especially if paying for a premium outcome.
That's because in order for public transit to work it has to cover the place the people work. Which is mostly in DC. Virginia isn't going to pay for public transit in DC. Maryland isn't going to pay for public transit in DC. Whereas what they will absolutely do is pay for roads in their own states.

And DC can’t pay for public transit in DC because it’s tax base isn’t big enough.

It isn't so much “favoring cars” as it is favoring tax money staying local, which is defined very oddly in the DC area.

It's sort of miraculous that the DC Metro exists at all, tbh.
The connection to covid is pretty loose but when people are driven to questioning what the very purpose of schools are (education or state sponsored childcare so both parents can work and contribute to the economy?), I think connection is fair.
All natural pb's I've tried don't separate if you store it in the fridge (but importantly, only after the initial stir)
Oh, your car can kill you or injure you in so many ways when it's turned off. You could accidentally disconnect something from the coolants system before it cooled down and get third degree burns. You could accidentally start the engine when working on the electric system and kill yourself. You could start a fire in about a dozen different ways and kill yourself or someone else. You can also accidentally leak battery fluid onto yourself or blow up the battery, and breathe in toxic gases.

There are also a few dozen ways you could mess up a repair and die without warning while driving.
Of course you see the exact same logic in today's "enlightened societies". Just look at Iraq or Afghanistan to see the same sort of logic of Americans starting a war for supposedly humanitarian causes only to make life worse for everyone involved.
It might be faster in some areas, but not in all, and certainly not at the same power budget. Marketers gotta market, though.

For real.

Tho, if organ donations were opt-out, or even no choice, and the infrastructure to match demand and supply would scale (it does not at the moment), we wouldn't need artificial organs to give this poor man this "high risk investment" and a chance to fight for his life.

Well, maybe in this particular case, an autologus transplant would be much better indeed, as I imagine cancer patients generally don't fare well with suppressed autoimmunity... Then again, no Repo Men visits.

You may not like the dichotomy, that’s a fair objection, but I think claiming the groups are a tossup is a pretty big claim.

Taxes are so nominal, that the haircut is almost non-existent. Beyond theory, I’m very well aware as my close friend inherited a property portfolio, and is now set for life.

Unfortunately, most are not as lucky, and therefore we should not rely on the inheritance lottery to act as our social security.

These units ship with nothing but a BIOS, and that's basically the only programming on-board for the first few months. No functionality except boot, sleep (no scheduler included), system bell (massively over-used), charge power, and flush buffer (far too frequently). You have to wait over a year just to get basic resource management and decent device drivers. I don't know how you can even call it UX before around the two-year mark, as there's no meaningful I/O, and no functionality that delivers any real value, until then.

The whole "child" thing is great for DIY enthusiasts, but totally impractical for the rest of us.

After thinking a little more about it though I guess what Im wondering is what the simplest way to create a usable rss feed is.

Im fine with setting up a backend of some kind if need be, but it seemed like it might be something that could be done as just an .rss file hosted on a frontend page through github pages.

Not sure if that makes sense but doing my best to describe the question. :-/

I'm not sure about the specifics on how uBlacklist works but these[0] uBlock origin filters seem to be very basic and invariant to small changes. Google could certainly could make them harder to remove but given that they don't put up much of a fuss (to my knowledge) for their normal ads (YouTube not included), I don't see why this would be otherwise.

Fair enough about a custom search engine though, I misinterpreted your comment.

I don't dispute this happened, or that its breach of law. I can't entirely explain it rationally, but I have a strong personal sense I feel quite differently about drug IPR, to other forms. I guess the nearest equivalent is bomb science: Some bomb scientists broke their word and revealed aspects of the Manhattan programme out of a sense of "higher duty" -no matter how displaced. I think drug IPR isn't a good candidate for "but it costs $billions" A better model is public funding of drug research.

I'm off to one side of the key points of this news. They did something which is legally wrong. Its IPR, and they broke the IPR rules.
You don't need expertise, you also need proprietary software.
Surely it can't be a pure binary split of 'for' covid vs 'with' covid.

Having covid presumably worsens outcomes for unrelated causes, in some cases turning a non emergency condition into an emergency condition.

Yeah, no place in the US has had lockdowns in a long time, though I suppose to an antivaxxer, a vaccination requirement to do certain activities may have the appearance of a lockdown. Or indoor mask requirements may appear to be a lockdown to someone allergic to caring about others. Regardless, if antisocial people want to GTFO and go to Florida, I'm all for it (with apologies to Floridians).
This sounds ideal. Especially the self hosted part.
> If you ask me, this was, and always will be, Norton Commander. Anti-viruses are a dime a dozen, and Norton's didn't outshine others.

Norton AntiVirus was the one I remember seeing prominently displayed at CompUSA or Circuit City back when you bought software as book-sized boxes containing disk(ette)?s in the 90s. You could find Norton Utilities, but when PCs became big with the general public around the early to mid 90s, Norton AntiVirus was clearly a moneymaker.
You could be right about that, but re: your link, Fauci is not a politician, he's a bureaucrat. No doubt they are subject to politicization / political bias and pressure too, but he doesn't seem completely partisan and one sided, he "has acted as an advisor to every U.S. president since Ronald Reagan"[wikipedia], so it's hard to gauge the political response to the mood of constituents based on what he's saying, in my opinion.

There are exceptions to that rule of thumb. E.g., NY taxes workers who live out of state.
Firewalls and offline networks are a better line of defense than antivirus tools.

Ask HN: Is antivirus on Windows worthwhile any more?
I was just reading about Norton installing a cryptominer by default, and after reading the comments on HN it seems that all AV products do is slow down the computer. In fact, they don't seem terribly good at detecting many viruses and malware.

My question is: do people recommend still using AV programs any more on Windows?
