Sadly I think if or when pig heart transplants are successful in humans, pigs will be commoditized even further, if that is even possible. Poor creatures :(

Not a reason to stop this research in my opinion but I agree with the comment I’m responding to - wish people could care for the animals we treat as test subjects, seems somewhat cruel to not do so
I wish I had read this comment before reading the post.
> Most people had no idea they even use colors.js

Why is that? Do NPM package managers not create a lock file that is a text file anyone can peruse?
Yes, that is morally wrong.

Honestly, wtf.
Just went down the list from the top on Amazon looking for masks in black. A lot aren't there, some have way out delivery dates. Dr. Smile, Lutema (flat fold!)and KN Flax are the first to pop up though delivery dates are next week.
It's a good point but I think the author sort of drove past the key insight. This is called structured logging. Having some kind of consistent schema of log messages is much better than plain strings for analysis later. It's just building a loose schema of events/log types, and picking a serialization format for said schema. JSON is popular because it remains human readable as well. I agree though, it really is very useful, not much harder than logging strings, and it's easy to evolve an existing system to gradually add structure to logs.
Sorting by breathability is broken.

It'd be nice if you had pop-up dialogs upon hover over each of the fields. For example, if I hover over breathability, explain what it is and how you measure it.

Some color codes/gradient would be nice to help with the visual effect (Green for Pass, Red for Fail etc.) But please do include a toggle for color-blind mode if you do add color.
If you can't catch it (but the mask does), you can't spread it..
Ideas are great but can you make it a product that someone is willing to pay for?

Lean startup methodologies might be useful in that regard.

As for the comfortable life - if that’s your goal then don’t do startups. You’ll quit 9-5 to work 24/7 with no guarantee… you only hear about those who crossed the chasm, it’s a selection bias that make most people have romanticized view of startups.
“Another surprise was the coefficients that appear in the entries of the quantum Latin square. These coefficients are numbers that tell you, essentially, how much weight to give different terms in a superposition. Curiously, the ratio of the coefficients that the algorithm landed on was Φ, or 1.618…, the famous golden ratio.”

This suggests to me that quantum max-flow would yield the same solution. You just need a bipartite graph superposition.

Not that I actually know enough to justify this intuition. The knowledge is seeping through the multiverse from versions of myself that bothered getting a phd.
The whole idea of selling skins sucks. I wish we could go back to what minecraft did where you just uploaded whatever texture map you wanted for free.

NFT promoters push all of this stuff about what you could do in the future with NFTs and it always looks like some dystopian hell where we take something that was free and charge money for it.

More importantly, however, and also as I wrote there, the blinking cursor has existed since at least 1965, and has not just turned 54 this year.
> and it looks like my side has most of the power so good luck

Liberty is the result of those who hold power willfully divesting themselves of it, and using what remains to protect the inalienable rights of the individual.

This idea that power itself is a justification for action - it is anathema to any form of liberty. It carries the stink of tyranny and oppression - those that believe it share in dark and disturbing company.

What "inordinate amount of power" is this really though? If they're a contributor to the parent library then they can already put whatever they want into code that will get executed by many people; meanwhile having libraries properly broken out into smaller pieces is great for maintainability.

More importantly, it greatly reduces their effectiveness. Fogging up glasses is, by far, the lesser issue of the two.
Historically the Peasant's Revolt, the civil war, and the Glorious Revolution of 1688 probably all count. So does the American Revolution, because the American colonies were part of Britain until they revolted and became independent. And what about the 1857 Indian mutiny, which replaced Company rule in India with direct government rule?

In the 20th century, the collapse of the British empire involved revolutions in Malaya, Kenya, and arguably also in India to some extent (e.g. the Indian Navy mutiny). Consider that the British empire controlled about 25% of the population of the planet 100 years ago, and now the UK is a small country of ~67 million people.

People who are looking for revolutions often need to look outside the physical geography of the British Isles to find them, but they are definitely there, they happened in parts of the world that were controlled by Britain and were considered part of Britain at the time, and they all had a huge impact on Britain.
The last two sound familiar. Further research is required. At any rate, I thank you!
That’s how you get tons of security vulnerabilities. It’s not a perfect solution but I rather have npm updating versions automatically, because developers are lazy and rarely do it manually.
>...It is really only a tiny minority that actually practically need privacy rights

Just about everyone needs privacy rights and most care about those rights for themselves. Unfortunately many are very willing to sacrifice other people's rights if they are told it will make them safer or protect the children, etc. (If someone does claim they don't care about privacy since 'they have nothing to hide', ask them for their medical records and tax returns - all of a sudden they do care.)
This article invokes the initial impression of providing a solution while actually containing as much value as saying that we could end world hunger by giving everyone something to eat.

Yes, if every maintainer would actively test their software in depth(!) on ever update in dependencies, things like this would happen less.

This not only fails to acknowledge the issue that the package author intended to "highlight" but just plain rudicules it.

Yes if people put in way more unpaid labor, we might end up with a better quality product.

(I do not support the package authors decision, I just think this article is a shameless clickgrab)
I think it's the opposite of what you said. non-expert users search more precisely with longer sentences.
> So you can have a pinned library that doesn't pin colors.js. Now you make a change in packages.json (say adding or removing another unrelated package). You will end up with colors being bumped to latest.

What the actual fuck. Who designed this fucking tire fire? Are you kidding me? What even is the point of package-lock.json??

I can't believe this. I actually can't. Now I have to audit all our dependencies, thanks.
The Magna Carta was revolutionary for its time, putting limits on divine monarchy and making steps toward a rule of law, not men.
A solution would be exactly as the problem states, one officer, with one rank, on one square, so I don't think the 'Quantum Solution' is actually a solution
It doesn't really seem authentic. To an extent, yes there is an increased focus on some of the things mentioned. But for it to be entirely true, I'd kind of expect them to be inarguably soft on left-leaning politicians, especially the prime minister. But I don't see that at all, if anything, they've become more critical of particularly specious policy moves and bills being proposed. A more suspicious person would claim it's a smokescreen, but it seems to me to a reasonable source of news, at least more so than Global, The Gaurdian a lot of the time, and certainly any of The Sun variants out there.
I think just attributing this to the right people not being in charge over simplifies the problem.

Search is a complexity beast and simply continued to grow in complexity during the several years I worked directly on it. Folks were proud of the fact no one could even enumerate all the features in the system (attempts were made and abandoned).

The tools to change search safely werent keeping up with the complexity of the system. Understanding impact with evals and experiments became much harder. Gwsdiff and friends grew flakier. Debugging had so many different entry points depending on what you needed to do.

The search stack deserves some really deep cleanups and refactoring, the eval and devtools are similarly in need of a ton of love.
So most of them are vented BUT there are some that are not.

GVS sells one with source control: https://www.gvs.com/en/catalog/elipse-p100-with-source-contr...

Most of 3M's stuff does not have source control but I just discovered tonight that there is an add-on exhaust filter to the 6000 series of masks: https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/d/v101254496/

I wore a 6000 series mask for most of 2020 and 2021 but upgraded to a 7000 series when the elastic wore out on the 6000. Both the 6000s and 7000s are super comfortable. You just might get some strange looks, particularly if you are sporting the bright pink P100 filters. I have not yet been able to find a source control equivalent for the 7000 series.

One great superpower of the 3M masks (6000/7000 etc.) is that wearing one of these while going to a port-a-potty means that you do not smell anything at all =)
So many people don't know what they're talking about in this field, and then act as if they're superior to those who do. Frustrating.

The logic in the php snippet which captures IP addresses is not correct. Any user is able to add an x-forwarded-for header to mask their real IP from the logs.

What I love about .NET is that most of the stuff I need for backend development is provided by the standard library from Microsoft. So I tend to use 10-20x less external libraries comparing to Node/NPM.
I don't look down on Arch at all. I came from the yesteryears of using Slackware Linux. It was a lot of work. I learnt a lot of course. But I won't do that again. Arch is much much more modern and elegant, but still requires some handholding. The Arch Wiki is a pearl.
I tried Manjaro and was mightily impressed, it was a breeze. I might go back to that on a multi boot machine. Cheers.
There’s been a few. For example, the Barons’ revolt that resulted in Magna Carta in 1215 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magna_Carta

Or the Peasants’ Revolt of 1381 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peasants%27_Revolt in part arising out of the aftermath of the Black Death.
Serilog (.NET, not Java) has been doing structured logging well for years.
I tried JetBrains prior to using VSCode for my C++ stuff. JetBrains would run one or more cores at 100% for extended periods of time when building apps containing linux headers + wt headers + boost headers (this wasn't for the compile, this was for the syntax and variable lookup stuff). Each new line I typed seemed to perform a whole new build in the clangd LSP.

Support couldn't seem to support me.

I would probably still be on that IDE if not for that.

VSCode seemed to handle the incremental builds in a much better sane fashion.
Better than this one? It's a pretty low bar.
Would absolutely love to take that off your hands, sounds just like one I never should have let get away a few years back. I'm in East Coast USA and email address in my profile. Thanks!
This resonated so much to me & meant so much. It felt like such a breath of fresh air. I still ascribe to the ideas here. But almost a decade later I feel like there's still little more than faith, I've seen so little evidence that software is capable of being conceived in processes that have appreciable consideration & soak time, by well regarded crafts-people. We feel damned by too-much-scale/too-many-concerns on one side, and too many pressures on the other.

I believe very much in the deep soulsearching activities of software development- it feels intensively valuable- but this slow seeking feel still more mystical in nature & happening than what we have, and I yearn to see more reinforcement, more exploration of what Rich was talking about, want so much a way to channel this talk into the real, into something understood, believed, and practiced. I don't think we've seen a lot of progress, but I feel like this article kindled a lot of belief, that still sparks strong in a lot of people, but which has not found a way to be shared or revealed yet.
Seems to contain some good links but also blatant marketing just carelessly regurgitating claims from product producers of unproven medical benefits. So calling this even just “mostly marketing free” is extremely dishonest.

Movies that have strategic product placement isn’t “mostly product placement free” it’s just plain marketing, and should own up to it.

I don’t understand why it’s even there, it doesn’t seem to tie into anything and is a sharp contrast to the rest of the content which actually references studies and actual results, and then it just switches to “Oh, and there’s this product the owner claims works” seems very odd unless it’s a paid add, but it seems unlikely to be a paid add due to placement and context.

> The whole astrology crap is bunk - but yeah "daughter of Enron" definitely

That's not very nice. You know there are people who believe that, right? But besides, who are you to really say it's bunk? You can't prove it is. It only proves that your mind isn't refined enough or wide enough yet to see those possibilities or those connections.

You just lack a certain sensitivity to things, plus a respect for other people with different views. But possess an arrogance to pretend the world can only extend so far as you can understand it. Not a good look.

Elon Musk says he’s hiking “full self driving” by another $2k
I have a stack of 50ish Armbrust masks after learning about them last year. Every single one i wore failed at the strap weld within a few minutes. I’ve got a big head and they ran a little small, but this was pure QA fail.

I’m guessing they’ve fixed it since then, but i don’t see how people can release products without testing them.
The page claims over 99% filtration by some dinky earloop surgical masks, which seems impossible unless they are only measuring the fabric and not the mask as a whole. It definitely seems like the testing method can't possibly account for side leakage, which IMO makes the measurements basically useless.
It's an interesting solution to a related problem, if you want to be pedantic.
Because, as George Orwell said: "The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again: but already it was impossible to say which was which.".

I'm kind of sick of skyscrapers personally, unless they're necessary, which they are sometimes. An argument for skyscrapers depends on their being a lack of available real estate that could otherwise be used to build many multi-rise or multi-family buildings, but often that space is taken up by parking lots. Take out the fucking surface parking lots, replace them with 5 story tall, pretty to look at and live in buildings, surround them with cafes and stuff and narrow the roads, then talk to me about skyscrapers. While you're at it, give people incentive to upgrade their single family lots to be more productive, and you might create a vibrant community, which you don't really get with skyscrapers as much.

You could build a skyscraper in the middle of my dumb suburban wasteland of the neighborhood I grew up in, but why the hell would I live there when the businesses are all off-the-shelf franchises with giant dusty shitty lots and nobody around to talk to.

Hell, build a skyscraper and surround it by the things I mentioned, that's cool too.
My favorite is, given that I have a baby and I am a trained scientist and I live in the US, I find myself converting milliliters to fluid ounces a lot.

Right now the Google Assistant will correctly transcribe the request to a Google search... Only for the search to interpret “ml” as “miles” and, faced with the discrepancy between the length and a volume, cube the miles. So I am expecting an amount that is like 1 oz because I am converting like 30 mL... and I instead get 4 quadrillion ounces (exact number is 1 mi³ = 140,942,994,870,857 + 1/7 oz because of course it's got that extra 7th in there what were you expecting from our ridiculous US system, haha).
A good mask needs both fit and filtration... most people can put a mask on, check for air gaps and see how well it fits, but they don't have a $250k mask lab to make sure the fabric is good.

We are just solving for the filtration and letting people figure out the fit.

But, you make a good point, in the videos I try to point this out but we could do better. Where could I add this to make this more clear?
Typically I would drink juice or maybe a tea, but nothing would pay attention to.

First, thank you. I feel like this is an opportunity to clarify in a thread of rationality vs. getting accused of bad faith...

I never made the claim that they shouldn't treat unvaccinated patients:

> And, I think it's an ethically defensible position to not treat people who refuse to get vaccinated... even though it will never happen.

And specifically to the parent comment I was agreeing to the following (quoting parent):

> It's unconscionable to take a hospital bed away from someone who needs it, because you refuse to take your medicine, with predictable consequences.

Although maybe it's not my best self showing here - but I do feel angry toward people taking those hospital beds away. And I was very specifically agreeing that "It's unconscionable to take a hospital bed away from someone who needs it [...]" I have friends/family who are suffering real consequences of hospitals being overrun with largely unvaccinated people...

---

Overall, I don't think "ethically defensible position" is equivalent to "they should not treat unvaccinated people" - yeah I guess this can be seen as "walking it back" but overall I did not mean to outright state we shouldn't treat the unvaccinated.

Sure - it comes from a place of frustration. But I don't think I'm alone in thinking about these things.

Sorry if this is off-base.
It’s unlawful worldwide to use EU citizen data without GDPR.

I don’t know how EU pulled that off, but the work of the NSA is illegal just like Google storing EU citizen’s data in USA without GDPR enforcement is illegal too. Not to say it’s applicable.

I agree logging is a bit of a code smell, but I prefer Mark Seemann's take: https://blog.ploeh.dk/2020/03/23/repeatable-execution/

TL;DR: Log impure actions. If you minimize and group side effects, you don't need to log as much. Pure functions can be recomputed any time if you know their inputs.

Event buses can be useful, but it's hard to look at an event being published and know what it does and whether it's important. Whereas the importance of a logger call is usually pretty clear. Logs are rarely load-bearing, but an event can mean anything.
There's also a side effect that isn't reported at all in the TGA's weekly reports and risk stats: costochondritis and/or myalgia.

I had 3 weeks of intense chest pains after 1st Pfizer and another week of mild chest pains after the 2nd dose. All tests normal. Four separate doctors said it was a common side effect and they had no idea what it was.

Now 3 months after my 2nd dose I still get chest discomfort after lifting weights, and have had to quit caffeine entirely as it results in days of chest pains after physical activity. Didn't have those issues prior.

Vaccine-induced costochondritis seems to fit best.
... and the history professor from the University of Reading has the history wrong. As I wrote at https://retrocomputing.stackexchange.com/a/11032/1932 , whilst Charles S.

The patent filing date is not its birth date. It has not turned 54 this year.
A few of the comments here seem to have not read the article. This is an opt-in program that effectively creates a map with contact info of private citizens with cameras. When something nefarious happens in a particular area, the police can reach out to the people who put themselves on the map and ask if they have footage and are willing to share it. The police already and have always done this.
They ran routes rather than pay not to. Completely useless make-work is classic government.
