That's exactly what it says. Like X11 forwarding, there are cases where agent forwarding is secure and cases where it's not, and unless the alternatives completely eliminate the need for this feature, improving it is always good.

Segregation is not limited to places where people choose to live.

Large amounts of (self-)segregation are easy to observe in any mixed social setting, such as social networks (within them, across them), communities of whatever practice, scientific schools, etc.

An extraordinary claim -- but no supporting evidence offered.
100rabbits looks way much better! This is very slick, thanks for sharing!
They look complex, but are they interesting? That seems to be the more difficult trick for any procedural algorithm I've seen to pull off. Although inherently subjective, anything that repeats too similarly too often, or doesn't logically make sense or have smooth transitions feels computer generated. The best procedural creation should feel hand-made IMHO.
By this logic, wouldn’t it be better to consider who will be investing in the community moving forward, rather than looking backward?

Where someone lives is the biggest investment they can make. It cannot be collected by rich people, and even poor people invest where they spend their time.

People putting money in to something is often out of self-interest. Those people already have the control afforded to them via money - an inequality that should be reduced, not exacerbated, by voting.

Wow, this is nice!

Is there a hotkey to toggle the eraser?
No, I already explained above. I never mentioned wealth distribution. Protection of persons, liberties, all of the above -- how do you get that? How do you pay for it? Taxes. But that's not all, what about all the public infrastructure like roads, without which you cannot have a functioning society? But wait, it's not even only that -- who decides on what is more important, the police or the fire department? So why shouldn't a foreigner get to decide if the government should be composed of people who want to prioritize the fire department instead of the police? People vote with their own interest of any kind in mind, that's how majorities are formed that decide how things should work. If you remove a part of society from the equation, that part gets to foot the bill for what somebody else wants. If they are good enough to be members of the society and have responsibilities (e.g. taxes), they are good enough to have privileges (deciding on how the taxes are spent).

>while US States are administrative districts of a single sovereign nation

this is false. under a unitary government system
that would be true but the US runs under a federalist system. states and the federal government are considered sovereign---at least as far as domestic issues go---and maintain a clear separation of powers. federal government is involved with national and intra-state issues while the states are involved with police and making regulations for their citizens. the federal government, can't, for example dissolve a state government like China could dissolve a province's government.

Well I'm certainly for tax cuts. Especially in California - a high tax/very low service state. I mean just walk outside of your apartment dude. If you see that as a success story something is wrong with you. I'd never look at SF or California government and say "Keep doing that".

It's crazy how our brains and bodies are just a cocktail of hormones and neurotransmitters. Change that mix, and it can change the very nature of who we think we are. Things that you might associate with your very identity, like optimism/pessimism, ability to focus, moral judgment, how collaborative or generous you are, aggressiveness, all can be influenced by hormones or neurotransmitters.
It's one interpretation of events. Another is that Putin has known all along he would need to act in Kazakhstan and staged the Ukrainian 'crisis' so that NATO politicians could go back to their constituents with a face-saving win in the 'standoff' while giving Putin free reign in Kazakhstan. We'll see how things play out...

"I could’ve easily gotten paid from Robin outside of Upwork. Heck, he was physically in front of me." - I don't think that would have been relevant. He could have still committed credit card or check fraud.

The main issue here seems to be that Upwork isn't meeting its end of the bargain in exchange for the cut that they take - given all sides agree that the worked hours weren't fraudulent, Upwork should do what they would have done had time been tracked in the tool, and they should be providing protection to the worker and pursuing collections from Robin themselves (and eating the loss until they can recover the unpaid balance).

The human rights complaint in the article is rather weird though - Upwork isn't forcing him to work any extra - he could quit the platform today if he likes.
Does it distract from the article?

This is a great write up of the problem space. I've also tried an approach here that converted the tile dependencies into a Boolean constraint satisfaction problem and then used the Open Source clasp (https://potassco.org/clasp/) answer set solver to return valid tilings. The inspiration was from the paper "Answer Set Programming for Procedural Content Generation: A Design Space Approach" (https://adamsmith.as/papers/tciaig-asp4pcg.pdf) which is also a good read.

Using an answer set solver was nice because it was so easy, I just had to encode the tile constraints and then the solver did all the work, backtracking, etc, but it could be slow, and it could also fail to return (infinite loop). I gave up because it seemed like WFC and similar could return results fast enough for "online" generation, like generating chunks in Minecraft and also because it seemed hard to encode tile probabilities (from some initial example map) like WFC does.
I learned that one type of wood was used for below the waterline (slower-growing timber from further north) and a different type above. I’ve done enough woodwork to think I have a feeling for the task of building an ocean-going vessel, and I hope that knowledge stays alive. I’m curious about how Polynesian voyagers made their boats, and I’m guessing those methods were more sustainable over millennia. Craft doesn’t exist on its own without culture; what is it about the dominant European approaches that has lead to what feels like a runaway explosion rather than the long, slow burn of human history?
Yes.

They have no global design, so in essence they are meaningless because the only function of each tile is “to fill space”, albeit in a “coherent” way.

All that exact same metadata is there and evaluated in the price of the piece for classical art as well, and whether something is interesting to you or not is in the end subjective. There are plenty of people who find pieces of modern art interesting even without knowing the metadata. I’m not sure there is a meaningful concrete distinction here.

I.e., have you just said that the fundamental difference between modern art and classical art is that you personally find classical art more interesting?
Between the forever chemicals, microplastics and air pollution we already have quite enough "good ideas" trying to kill us. The burden of proof for any potentially hazardous new invention is on the inventor to prove that it is safe.

People who are dismissive of new ideas based on safety grounds don't need to provide reasoning or evidence or even a coherent argument, they provide a useful function nonetheless by adding friction, forcing inventors to prove that their invention is safe beyond doubt. Since this idea proposes using ionizing radiation around people, a strong dose of scepticism is warranted.
Thank goodness. I’d been trying to figure out a good solution to this for a while.

I literally did the opposite and said that online gaming helped people to socialize in lockdowns. I also made hypothesis it explains some gender disparity in suicides - boys play more likely and it allowed them to keep talking to friends which made them suicide less.

And for the record, I do strongly dislike gaming, surrounding culture and how gamers act when they play more then a little. It just was not my topic now, topic was suicides in covid.
> It was wrong when it was implemented, never documented, but has a currently defined behavior that most people don't want

That strikes me as exactly the sort of guarantee that's _not_ made by semver. You can rely on that behavior, but then you have to check against every patch version, because that's exactly the sort of thing that could change out from under you. Maintainers shouldn't worry about breaking this case- they never promised to support it in the first place.

I think a lot of those cases should be a major version change, and that's totally fine. We _should_ minimize the number of breaking changes to code people depend on, but sometimes the best fix to the (totally reasonable) situations you outlined above is to make a new major version. Users will have to make changes to upgrade (instead of just bumping the versions), but it won't change out from under them. Some docs about what's changing, why, and how to migrate your code go a long way here.
Right. Oddly this is where our climate problems can meet our affordable housing problems: start building clusters of neighborhoods that are designed to be walkable and bikeable. These are in stupidly high demand, we just need more of them. Default to installing heat pumps, solar panels, and EV hookups.

There's no silver bullets, but if the average person winds up driving X% fewer miles because they have the option to walk, that's a meaningful win.
An EV driving 15k miles per year only averages ~500w of electricity 24/7. The infrastructure is therefore relatively cheap.

So at scale a 1GWh battery pack can charge ~100,000 cars at any time of the day. But, assuming PV adoption continues electricity prices will be lower in the day so most people will end up charging at the office.
I really hope this means that small mom and pop stores and the implied personal service will come back. Hipsters get on it!!
My response is to the Reviewer #2 aspect of, instead of say championing a proposal on merit and, for their allocation issue, advocating for say increased budget for extra staff... rejecting it because of belief in Not My Job for something a good team would often either do scrappily or consider to be part of their job. One of the main costs and bottlenecks in modern academic R&D is the crazy low grant acceptance rates, forcing leaders to 5X grant writing time vs doing time, which makes this reviewer response 5X more nasty than you might otherwise think.

If you want to go ethical -

* PhD students, most of all, are learning how to do R&D: picking valuable problems, picking how to solve them, and most efficiently in time/money/etc solving then. Doing scrappy Day 1 work is very much a part of that skillset, surprisingly similar to a founding MVP team: Not My Job is teaching the wrong mindset and divorces you from the community + work, which may be what you are trying to learn.

* ... However, Learning to Outsource/delegate is indeed part of efficiency training, so let's dig in. The default answer in most prototyping is do a crappy cheapo version, replace with a more costly version when it becomes the need, and reserve your shoestring budget for a few really important things. So likely no to a commercial grade design firm on rerainer, yes to either a $50 logo on Fiverr or more likely, something funny you can make via a free tool, done. Later, when there is more need and budget, say Year 2, easy to revisit.

* Some things do merit staff. Should a bio lab partner with a CS team who wants to learn their needs as part of making new CS methods? That's T-shaped collaboration and good, and part of why academic teams can be so scrappy: there's ~always someone somewhere where your non-core work is their baby. Or, maybe they want to inhouse to get more speed/reliability/control. If that person will be like the CS team, ultimately making new CS methods, or a more computationally minded bio researcher helping with some of their own coding for faster EDA, great. But if they will always be Author #2 and has to code on projects they are not doing the science on, that's not a postdoc, that's a staff programmer. We should have more of those.

Cool tool, but recommend reading the policies [0] section carefully, it did catch me off guard the first time I tried using it.

E.g. say you have /a/foo.txt and /b/foo.txt, and you run mergerfs /a:/b /merged

Now if you print or modify /merged/foo.txt, it would access /a/foo.txt because the default policy for file access is ff (first-found, as defined during the mount).

However, if you run "rm /merged/foo.txt", it would delete it from both /a and /b, because the default policy for unlink call would be "epall" (existing path, apply to all).

If I understood correctly, this comparison is wrong. The money GP talks about is needed to interact with the infrastructure (blockchain), not the content publisher. If HN were a web3 app, posting a comment would cost you money even if HN runs without ad, because as a web3 app it needs blockchain interactions that cost money.
Lots of people here mentioning that concert pitch wasn't always A = 440 Hz. Here's an interesting 12tone video explaining how we ended up at exactly that: https://youtu.be/BzznBt8tVnI (Spoiler: It involves nothing less than the Treaty of Versailles.)

so it's not such a ridiculous idea after all.

Intelligence has nothing to do with it. All you have to do is look at the space shuttle design. It was a seriously flawed concept. I did not understand how that concept could have been pushed forward. So I emailed Homer Hickam about it, wondering what I missed. He said I was right, and that he'd also thought the concept was completely wrong. Events later showed both of us were right in every aspect. (I had not expected a reply from him, but he was very nice to do so!)

The Fukushima reactor and the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig were also designed and built by experienced, intelligent people, but they both could have used experience from the airline people. Both had multiple single points of failure, which failed, and none of those points had to be there. I see this again in the auto industry, in particular Toyota's onboard computer.

The software industry is also full of the smartest people I know. Yet I've been able to bring in ideas from airliner design that are of significant benefit. For example, "defensive programming" comes from a talk I gave in the 1990s.

I recommend James Burke's "Connections" series. It is a history of technology, on the theme of how outsiders repeatedly spark advances and innovation by seeing things that the insiders don't see.

I'm an outsider as far as space probes go. I know little about the details. But that also means I am not immersed in the conventional wisdom that develops around the insiders of every profession, and sometimes and outsider can see things the insiders don't.

I don't claim I'm always right. But all I ask is to keep an open mind. Sometimes an outsider with experience in another industry can make a connection.
I believe that's why ChaCha20 is used with Poly1305 to provide authentication, which is why you see it referred to as ChaChaPoly.
With background information talks.
I do not say that the metadata for old pieces does not play a role! It very much does, beginning from the very age of an old piece. A lot of primitive ancient art coveted by museums or collectors is not aesthetically notable. The auction price of an old painting changes drastically depending on whether it's considered "genuine <insert a famous name>" or not.

The difference I'm trying to make is that in "modern art" (not all art produced in modern times, but the kind that inherits from what Duchamp invented) the metadata is basically all that's interesting, and the art is produced with this assumption in mind. A "classical" piece of art usually had to also work without the metadata being known.
> Not saying they’re insignificant skills but a competent PhD should be able to learn them quite fast (in a month) in a competent environment. I and many others did.

They can also learn them quite fast before the interview/job, and it's a concern that they don't, when almost all other applicants do.

>I feel the same applies here.

That doesn't really follow logically. The reason why that's the advice on airplanes is that you can be unconscious for a while (a minute or two?) and not suffer brain damage. Therefore the cost of helping yourself is fairly low. It's not clear that the same dynamic applies to lockdowns.
You're interpreting the headline too literally if you what you took from it was that people care about the actual color of the messages. The point is that they care about preserving the advantages of everyone in a group chat being on iMessage. As soon as even one participant in the conversion is on a non-Apple device, the chat switches to SMS, and you lose some of the fancy iMessage features. There also may be a status component where some kids think iPhones are cooler.

Of course this doesn't apply to every group of people. As you say, in some circles other non-Apple chat platforms are more popular so this isn't an issue. But don't make the mistake of thinking that just because iMessage isn't popular in your friend circle that it's not popular in general.
Sadly not, but should not be difficult to implement :)

Upwork hooked up the two parties, expecting to take a cut of the payments between them.

One party did their fair share, the other party did not.

Seems pretty cut and dry this is Upwork's problem to solve, not the party who did the work.

However upwork allows workers to record their completed work is irrelevant.
An old antihistamine¹ was used as the blueprint for development of the first commercialized SSRI. Similar first generation antihistamines² also have a significant effect on SERT (serotonin transporter).

Reciprocly, the weight gain induced by certain SSRI is tought to be caused by an antihistaminic effect³.

It would not be surprising if other antihistamines (at least those that cross the BBB) had similar effects because antihistamines are frequently promiscuous (i.e. they have significant affinities with a lots of targets other than the one that make a drug effective) but I would be surprised if histamine, or its inhibition, was directly (with the exclusion of the miserable feeling that comes with allergies) implicated in moods changes.

> Command economies are not necessarily socialist.

One counter-example comes immediately to mind, but mentioning that would cue a whole tedious discussion of "But that is socialism, it's even in the name!" vs "Just because it's in the name doesn't mean it actually is socialism!", so I won't spell it out.

> In particular, businesses really don't fit the definition of socialism.

No, true. As others have mentioned, feudalism ses a better fit.
