I'm a huge NFT enthusiast and collector. This project gets NFTs exactly right. It's frankly refreshing to see someone seemingly get it - most of the critiques are just so bad. It's just that: I don't see the problem at all. I'd encourage you all to buy NFTs on CSVChain, ideally from real artists committed to their craft.

hundreds of millions of people were vaccinated. shouldn't the hospitals be full of stroke victims if those two things are related?

if you don't want to get vaccinated, don't. no need for poorly reasoned rationalizations

I wonder why Groovy decided to map "or" to the shell's "|". Wouldn't it have made more sense to map "or" to the shell's "||" and "pipe" to the shell's "|"?
> No, there isn't unlimited QE

Well there certainly isn't any explicit limit either.
I think you’re being far too kind in your interpretation. If one wishes to stop maintaining, all you must do is nothing. Instead, by pushing an intentionally broken patch, It is foreseeable that there will be hundreds or thousands of maintainers of other code that will have to respond to your actions. I think it’s reasonable to call that an attack.
Are you solely focused on plants here? Invasive species can also apply to animals. Invasive aquatic species have decimate local animals, and we didn't necessarily create those environments. There's also invasive plants in these aquatic systems as well.
This battery probably doesn't have much in the way of safety. It's a one off prototype meant for PR, not for production.
In what world is it not malicious? He owned the packages and I guess that gives him the right to do what he likes with it, but I have a hard time believing he didn't do it deliberately fully aware that a whole bunch of people would update and it would cause disruption. It's not an exploit, but it's certainly malicious, and I don't think it's unreasonable to call it an attack.
[Noting that you said GUI, and what I'm about to say isn't]

There's a lot more to Graphviz than just dot, as it comes with some really good filtering tools that people often seem to miss. You can achieve an awful lot with just bcomps/ccomps. And, when you're running queries gc is useful to see that you're heading down the right path.

> Case in point, you may not need to use eigenvectors directly in the job, but the concept is so essential in linear algebra and I as a hiring manager would expect a candidate to explain and apply it in their sleep.

Exactly. Whenever eigenvectors come up during interviews, it’s usually in the context of asking a candidate to explain how something elementary like principal components analysis works. If they claim on their CV to understand PCA, then they’d better understand what eigenvectors are. If not, it means they don’t actually know how PCA works, and the knowledge they profess on their CV is superficial at best.

That said, if they don’t claim to know PCA or SVD or other analysis techniques requiring some (generalized) form of eigendecomposition, then I won’t ask them about eigenvectors. But given how fundamental these techniques are, this is rare.

>The biggest reason the under 5s vaccine is taking so long is that they don't suffer severe enough symptoms that they can easily test the efficacy of the virus.

How does anyone convince themselves that this is actually a problem?

Especially when the vaccine no longer prevents catching the virus or transmitting it.

What remaining benefit are people so eager to confer upon their toddlers?
> I consider those agreements to be violations of Net Neutrality, since they're inherently not treating all data the same.

I would agree if they do not make that available to all services. At least at the time they did that for music there was a pretty long list of partners so I’d be most interested in knowing whether they charge money or reject applicants.
T-Mobile, Verizon, AT&T, and other ISPs joined together and successfully lobbied Republicans in the US government for permission to record what their customers do online and sell that information [0, 1]. Apple's proxy service takes away that revenue source.

"The patient, David Bennett, 57, knew there was no guarantee the experiment would work but he was dying, ineligible for a human heart transplant and had no other option, his son told The Associated Press."
re: [mobile] The relay is available on Mac and iOS (and for good measure landline ISPs in the US also have a history of selling and modifying user data)

Apple sees your IP address when you make the request, but not the content of the request, the egress point knows your approximate location (if you've asked it to maintain general location). As I interpret the white paper everything that is downloaded goes [destination site]->egress CDN->apple->you so the CDN can at best determine the most popular sites in a region, and apple can know you're using the internet.

In terms of knowing the popularity of various websites, apple says they're using large CDN companies, given that there are only a few CDNs large enough to handle potentially a large portion of apple's user base (who knows what the numbers will actually end up being) those CDNs likely already know the popularity.

The end result is that private relay is superior for privacy of web traffic, but of course only applies to insecure http requests, or requests from safari. Presumably this is the best mix of "don't leak arbitrary plaintext from user systems" and "don't interfere with other company's apps".

So if you want general privacy from your ISP a traditional VPN seems to be what you want, but that VPN sees everyone/thing you connect to, so you're trading your ISP knowing what you're doing for the VPN company knowing what you're doing.
Can anyone list the 10 IPOs of 2021 that were YC companies?
Biology invades a field philosophers thought was safely theirs (2008)
CYCO, a Lisp based composition language
https://github.com/plewto/CYCO3

CYCO is a project centric music composition language. Each CYCO project
is composed of a number of sequential 'sections' corresponding to major
divisions of the score. Each section is in turn composed of any number of
'parts'. A part combines an instrument with instructions on what that
instrument is to play. There are several types of part, some highly
specific such as 'metronome', other more general parts include 'strummer',
'controllers', 'bender' and 'qball' (a kind of recombinant event
generator).

CYCO takes a functional approach for time-specification and custom
time-cues may be defined. It also provides a rich set of pattern
generator types.
I don't understand. When would a company ever want a capped note? It only provides a benefit to an investor, at the company's expense.
Every company that applies to YC can expect to want $500k+ of capital at some point. It's extremely rare for them not to. The "no, I'd like just one" reaction doesn't make sense for a company that's aiming for a $billion+ valuation, and those are the only companies that YC accepts.
A big risk is that the new leader, having less authority and fewer credentials for their choices, will compmromise Signal's security to pressure from the public.

With only 30 people, I am glad things are delayed. That is necessary if Signal doesn't develop and release them before they can be done right.
But if that were the only reason why, then couldn't they just turn off Private Relay in that specific case, instead of all the time?
You're referring to Case Fatality Rates.

Case Fatality Rate = confirmed deaths / confirmed cases

Infection Fatality Rate = total deaths / total infections

Total infections can only be estimated, and is much higher than confirmed cases because most people who get COVID-19 don't get tested for it (either because they're asymptomatic, unable to get tested, or don't see see a point since they already know they're sick). Thus the infection fatality rate is substantially less than the case fatality rate.

This paper estimates the median infection fatality rate to be 0.23% https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33716331/

Also worth noting that deaths could be overestimated since anyone who dies having tested COVID positive is counted as a COVID death, and pretty much all patients who enter a hospital these days are tested for COVID.
Any and all layers.

Bitcoin is miniscule, far smaller than the US Dollar. Do whatever you want to make BTC as big as possible. Artificially inflate the value and scope of BTC as much as you wish.

It won't be anything close to the US Dollar. And yet, the electricity usage of BTC is absolutely colossal.
Morality and Evolutionary Biology
> Maybe part of the 0-day fix is go multiparty: allow weighted votes by dependents to take over the namespace to force a patch/reversion. You own your code etc, but the OSS distro service has its own community-owned rules, and you are free to run a competing package manager without them.

Not a good idea. You are pretty much asking to be review bomb. You would need very good moderation to be able to trust votes. That means npm spending a bunch of resources on hiring them, not sure if they are up for that (no, free mods aren't the solution).
I don't have access to the article, and I'm probably not versed enough to understand it fully anyway.

So, if I may ask you, or the larger thread—

this is implying the the inflammation will repeat if the neurons are activated [in such a way]?

Could/would this impact one-time sufferers of SIRS and/or acute pancreatitis (being an inflammatory disease)?

Would it match the original severity?
> People would need to buy iPhones from Apple and then replace the SIM cards themselves.

Changing sims is VERY easy, but a sim that doesn't match an approved phone is also easy to block?
Most of these are just misapplications of tech by other people, you don't really need to participate if you don't want to.

I'd hesitate to even call this stuff "tech" - search engines, streaming video, online retail and social networks were new 20 years ago, but now they're just part of the mainstream.

Objectively computers are faster than ever and there are more ways to apply that power.
I'd appreciate if the government could just predict the future as well as hacker news. It doesn't need to be perfect. Look, they're gonna tell us to get booster again in 2022. I know it. You probably know it. Everybody knows it. Why haven't the CDC said it?
100% of people can get these vaccines, and 100% of people will still get and spread Coronaviruses. Full stop. It's getting really old hearing that vaccines will stop anything when the majority of people spreading this shit RIGHT NOW, are vaccinated people. The people I've been seeing the sickest for a year now when they do get sick, are vaccinated. The 3-4 people I know recently who were very sick with COVID for 10 or more days with breathing troubles, were VACCINATED. The shit is nonsense anymore.
20% said it bothered them, somewhat or a little. I find "bothered" much milder than "offensive"
I just got off my X200s from like....2008.

the 1.8 Ghz dual core was getting long in the tooth. But it had upgrades otherwise (newer ssd, though i had a factory ssd from day 1), and upgraded to 8GB of ram. Ran multiple linux distros on it great, including debian with awesomewm and even ElementaryOS.

I will not admit what i bought to replace it, but im happy for the time being and it replaced by desktop and laptop in one (but wasnt cheap). I know theres no way it has the longevity i got out of that x200s.

Technically the x200s is still in service though. I let my daughter use to get better with mouse/hand-eye coordination and do some reading/website work on it.
Yes, "had no other option" confirms that an artificial heart wasn't an option, but it doesn't say why it wasn't.
But there's a lot we can do concerning vaccinations, mandates and social distancing. I'm not sure why it's on the reader to fish for a charitable reading of a comment devoid of any nuance.
> Agreed, and I've actually seen signs for both on some highways.

I believe I've seen the same signs on some highways, but usually they're like 40 mph minimum with a 60 mph limit. Which leaves a large delta, especially when people actually go 70 mph.

> I wouldn't be opposed to have driving tests more than once in a lifetime. But this is a tough issue to tackle

Same and agreed. Due to the fact that most everyone in the US has to drive just to survive you can't easily raise the barrier to entry. I wish we could though... maybe it would help spur investment in public transportation.

I'd actually love it if each lane of the highway had an increasing speed target from right to left as a rule i.e. 60 in the right, 65 in the middle, and 70 on the left. In reality if everyone goes the same exact speed then lane changes become difficult.
I wonder if this has implications for pain management as well. Ie is the brain doing the same thing for things like chronic back pain (the pain triggers some neural imprint, but the imprint can then trigger the pain again even if the underlying physical problem had gone away).
Ending up in the ICU with covid and from covid are very different things. You literally cannot get admitted to a hospital without getting a covid test and becoming a covid hospitalization or death. The testing itself causes issues as my son was admitted for appendicitis and they refused to remove the appendix until he had results from a covid test which at the time took about 2 days. Well they let his appendix burst and he ended up having to stay in the hospital for 2 weeks instead of what should have been a couple hour stay.
Indeed, "defensive publication" can be a viable IP strategy when you're working in a quickly evolving space. Another is a provisional patent application which is much cheaper than a full blown application.

It's still worth at least chatting with a patent lawyer (which I'm not) to make sure what you think is sufficient as a defensive publication, actually is.
he guy has violent tendencies for sure, he even was arrested for assaulting his ex-girlfriend
And go where? I've had bad experiences with service with AT&T and Verizon in my area, Washington State. It's shockingly spotty.
The burden of proof is on the people pushing vaccines.
Let’s hope.
If the other credit cards were several orders of magnitude more expensive to process transactions they wouldn't be in business.
Does T-Mobile actually extort companies for transit? When they announced their video streaming throttling + zero-rating, I looked through their the publicly available documents. From what I recall, there wasn't any sort of payment process, and mostly there was two parts: identifying the traffic so T-Mobile knew to zero rate it, and either adaptive bandwidth usage (which seems pretty common for video streaming anyway) or identifying the traffic so the provider could serve lower bandwidth streams.

It's not in line with the net neutrality, but it's useful for the direct parties:

a) a video streaming customer wins because they can do video streaming without touching their data allotment.

b) the video streaming server wins because their customers are able to do more streaming

c) t-mobile wins because they've reduced bandwidth requirements

Competitive streaming services that are not included in the program don't win, but t-mobile made it fairly easy to join. Users who want to stream at 4k or whatever don't win, but they can turn off the bandwidth restrictions and use their data allotment if that's what they want to do.

At my last job, I was involved with a lot of zero-rating deals as the application provider; we never paid for it, and I don't recall ever being asked for payment. Some of the carriers even setup plans without our knowledge or consent or assistance; this didn't usually work great long term, because of misidentified traffic, but it indicates the demand was there without us pushing it.
"Killing each other off" indicates mass die off. Are we seeing mass die off?

Given that fully vaxxed places are blowing up in case numbers, the vax obviously isn't stopping transmission much if at all right now.

Many more people are vaxxed then not right now. So if you are unvaxed and infected on a trip to the store who most likely gave it to you? A vaxxed person or an unvaxxed person?

"Unvaxxed killing each other off" is a hysterical take and inaccurate.
do they take a different day off in the week or do they have an occasional 5 day work week?

Not a comment out of the side of my mouth, I am legit curious. at any rate, an occasional 5 day week is better than an occasional 6 day week
What about the man hours behind Coinbase? ProShares Bitcoin ETF? Etc. etc.

As if BTC were absolutely free to use and maintain? Sure, its "just a private key", except no one I know can use GPG or PGP on their emails, so its a bit harder than that ya think?

The typical non-techie out there relies upon a techie to handle the details of private key, transactions and so forth. A BTC transaction will be handled by coinbase (or some other crypto-exchange + transaction processor) rather than by the users directly.
And the shutdown week at Christmas. Few companies do this either.
List of the most popular biz articles ever
Guys,
Here you can find a list of the most popular business articles ever based on screening over 200k social media posts published by the top (IMHO) 21 business magazines & websites (below):
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1m6zprG2oR8vaNSz93gtE...

10 articles from each of the 21 sources:
Harvard Business Review, First Round, MIT Sloan, Masters of Scale, a16z, Growth Hackers, McKinsey Global Institute, IndieHackers, Entrepreneur, Inc Magazine, CMX Hub, SaaStock + Business Insider, Foundr Magazine, Fast Company, Fortune, Medium, StarterStory, Yourstory.

Let me know if any valuable source is missing (note: it must have an active social media account on FB or TWTR).

Here you can also find a summary of the most popular ones:

Same here, and you shouldn't be downvoted for this. Flying is just gross.
(I work with YC's biotech companies). I'm particularly excited about what this deal means for biotech companies. YC's previous deal of $125K was always a bit light for companies doing wetlab biotech, which is still expensive compared to building software. $500K is a much better fit for the needs of most new biotech companies.
I still don't understand how people don't get that recommendations change. It's like two years in, how are people not getting how this works?
You are describing Tidelift (https://tidelift.com/) except the bit where the users would "need to pay" - although that could be addressed e.g. via regulations for enterprises but not individuals.

Woof! is a source port from the same creator and worth checking out too: https://github.com/fabiangreffrath/woof It's crispy doom visual plus much more modern extensions to doom mod support (way less limits and much more custom behavior supported).

Funny, boost and libcommons are my default examples of harmful dependency bloat.

The main problem with both is that they have some narrow functionality I actually want, but they also contain millions of lines of brain damaged garbage. (Which, at least for boost, is by design, since it’s a proving ground for stuff destined for the C++ standard library.)

The second they’re available, junior devs find the worst corners of them, and build in hard dependencies while no one’s looking.

I prefer the curated distribution approach that Debian takes: Fine grained dependencies are widely available, but gated behind some sort of reputation-based quality assurance process.
The one that I find repeatedly useful:

find . -name <some pattern> | { while read F; do <do something to file F>; done; }

This lets you do things of almost any level of complexity to files or data listed as input and it doesn't require temporary files so you can process a lot of things.

e.g. you might use sed -i to alter the files in some way or you might find media files of some kind into ffmpeg to convert them.
"...consideration for personal liberty has gone by the wayside..."

Can you truly say these things with a straight face, in light of the countless laws banning voluntary consumption of drugs and the millions of harsh prison sentences that have been handed out for breaking those laws? People literally lose their freedom - they are put in poorly-maintained cages - for exercising their personal liberty in that fashion. That has been standard procedure in this country for generations with little dissent. Yet the voices that seem the loudest against vaccine mandates (voices that barely exists for the dozen or so other vaccine mandates over the generations) don't seem to be speaking up to these far more grievous and damaging violations of personal liberty.
Basically feel the same. Also 10 years in. I wish I was seeing some wage growth. I'm not even at the software dev median.
I agree with all of the things you've said, and I believe this to be a supremely positive thing.

Now that everything is laid bare and there's obvious failure everywhere, you have the opportunity to create something new.

Over a decade of experience is not actually that much (no offense). You might not remember what it was like when the tech industry actually was innovative, and many of those periods have been fairly insane. My advice is to embrace the disappointment and harness that to do something you find meaningful.
> Its gross to assume that anyone owes you sex.

> your wife is being drilled by everyone and you can't do anything about it

I interpret this as "someone owes you to not have sex with other people" (which is a common assumption in most marriages), not that someone owes you sex...
Come up with a commercial Signal server, where the server is not at/by Signal.

Sell the server to secret squirrels, etc.
That's not relevant. The original point was: "If you want to continue locking your self up fine, I don't care. Just don't try to force others to do the same."

That's a terrible response because regardless of your vaccination status, you still have an impact. Just saying "I make my choices, you make yours" is a complete misunderstanding of the entire viral nature of this.
> “vital network data and metadata and could impact “operator’s ability to efficiently manage telecommunication networks.”

Complete bunk - Their (TMobile et.al) “value add services” are nowt more than network content provider toll-gates that the proxies bypass. Meanwhile they are also selling every bit of user context data (position, DNS/sites, cookies where unencryptable, phone-id’s etc) that they can scrape individually and in aggregate to any and every advertiser. Context is worth serious money to advertisers.
People literally buy devices to emit fake codes to get the rewards despite the fact that they dont actually own the Amiibo....
