Without ascribing concrete value to it, I've done this my whole career and I am generally viewed as a "know-it-all" .. "Ask kthejoker, if anyone knows, he will."

Especially with regards to solution architecture, you're often combining or comparing a huge (think factorial!) mix of tools, code, data, etc. Each with their own configurations, settings, gotchas, patterns, constraints, capabilities, hacks ...

Being able to quickly recall and locate URLs, code repos, docs, points of contact in a company or the wider community ... for me, it is the ultimate career moat.

This article on A Cloud Guru kind of encapsulates the sentiment well

Anyway, convenient texhnology for spaced repetition plus a second brain is amazing compared to earlier centuries.

In the future this will probably be a core part of OP's question .. adding things to the brain, automatically deriving connections, surfacing things into your "local" memory at the perfect time ...

Seems weird. What was that 0.02% when it was down? I've clearly missed it.
Or at least a "always omit results from this domain" option.
Yeah, Got a list of potential options under review for our required criteria: https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/issues/2738
A counterpoint to this is that my car is manufactured in a single plant in Europe. It ships with engine oil in it (because it's driven on and off the transport ship). So I presume one sold in the UK and the US have the same oil in, yet Land Rover will tell you to change that exact same oil in the exact same engine after 20k miles in the UK and 5k miles in the US.
And yet Moxie spends a ton of time and effort attempting to convince everyone that working on protocols and federated systems (not just "Web3" and crypto-adjacent stuff, as in his article yesterday, but the entire space: he gave a scathing talk a year or two ago you can find a copy of, though he interestingly hadn't wanted it recorded) are useless and that no one should waste their time building them :(.

NFTs aren’t permissioned by end users. The person that deployed the smart contract still controls all permissions (although they can’t change it later — that is the only difference).

The reason that you can trade a NFT is because the smart contract has an API written by the creator to allow it.
Not a book per se but read about the Philosophy of anarchism. More specifically the social and human aspects of it.

And stay way from "Anarcho-capitalist" there are not anarchist even if they dream about it...
I mean, I know. I've wrote an article called "We deserve better than Notion and Confluence" and I spend my days building an alternative to Confluence for orgz.

But I still think that Confluence is better than nothing
I was hoping this would be a site that shows you how far up Bitcoin is in the last year

So it'd be more like "Is Bitcoin down or just my poorly managed portfolio?"
If I understand this correctly, the question (Codex Input) is asking for a solution using SymPy. So that would be the correct answer, right?
This is like those custom license plates on a car which are completely inscrutable to everyone else. "You pay $70/yr to send me that message??"

I'm kinda okay with this. :)
With welded parts you can just drill spotwelds out and replace the part, with single piece, you cant even get new part because they only make whole piece.
If you manage to get parts, fix wont be as good as new because now there is a weld when it was solid part before.
Happy eyeballs is indeed used in common implementations of http/3
You mean because the show is about them? In the scheme of things they seem to be basically rank-and-file detectives.

All the science/tech stuff they do tends to make me cringe. A hair from a nearly-extinct field mouse found in just one park? whatever. I guess that beats big "revelations" you can see coming a mile away.
I've worked on these kinds of systems, but not this one explicitly. There is always a discussion about how to make it(legally) more difficult for users to do something you don't want them to do. It's not paranoia, it's reality.
Academia is all about prestige. You gotta let them have it, it's the main thing they care about.

But you're right about names for groups of animals, called "terms of venery", were originally intended to mark a speaker as educated enough (in hunting traditions) to know the words, not for serious communication about animals.
I was told this about Queen Anne's Lace, which I let have the run of my property for about 18 months because my ground was compacted and the insect community absolutely loved it. I just don't see the resemblance the way some people claim.

I haven't tried to eat any of it though. The roots smell amazing but I have been trying to grow parsnip and carrots already and that's enough carrot family for one kitchen. I am however starting to replace the QAL with the native carrot family, since I want to maintain the pollinators but I'm quickly crowding out reasonable places to let it grow. I guess we'll see how good my eye is at telling them apart when young.
That would be a CEO without a golden parachute to bail them out when they run things into the ground... so I wouldn't be surprised if it works out better than average.
I don't generally need to preserve all my messages forever, but I often do refer to recent ones, say from the last few weeks. I have switched devices a couple of times with Signal only to be stuck thinking "oh crap, did I agree to do X on Th or Fri?" The lack of sync for SMS with their desktop client also makes it basically useless to me, I'm sure that's more secure, but I wouldn't mind being to opt-out, especially on a contact-by-contact basis.
I like this line of thinking, that there’s something up with the paperclip optimizer. Google has always insisted that search engineering is different from ad auctions but I don’t buy it. If there’s a KPI for “dwell time” on the sponsored search results that ads up as you come back and try a different link, that would dive bomb the usefulness of the page.
That's powerful. When I was in uni Wolfram seemed to have a monopoly on this sort of thing. I would have loved to have some free alternative back then.
People ought to be allowed to have a personality.
>Apple’s iMessage lock-in is a documented strategy. Using peer pressure and bullying as a way to sell products is disingenuous for a company that has humanity and equity as a core part of its marketing. The standards exist today to fix this.

This is very very strange coming from Google. I am surprise because Google has stopped acting like they do no evil. And somehow Apple picked that up from Google since 2016. And now they are in reverse situation.
This isn’t a given. It depends on what a repair entails. Often a steel chassis can simply be pulled back into shape.

An aluminum chassis is certainly more difficult. A friend of mine had a Lotus and the whole thing was written off for chassis damage that literally couldn’t be seen.
Wow. Glad that I switched to Brave. I've also looked at ungoogled-chromium and other similar forks, but also concerned about tracking the upstream for fixes fast enough; some of the smaller forks take too long. Brave works really well and is a great experience overall (once crypto ads are disabled).
Looks like a good reason to finally try out Rust. Does HN have any recommended IDEs?

I guess I don't find what's so difficult. All you need to do is look to Norway. If you want to make an argument that "the last bit is the toughest" - I guess? But they're already well, well on their way to a low emissions strategy.

As for it being impossible for a country like the UK: you're making some ridiculous assumption that the UK would need all energy to be produced on-shore. Does the UK get all of its coal and oil in-country? No? Then why do they need to get all of their energy in-country? If they need to import and store batteries or hydrogen or insert energy holding vessel so be it.
Future me has helped maintain an exercise habit and healthy eating for nearly 2 decades of my life (and counting).

Future me has been less effective for breaking the internet habit. It works, just not quite as well. I think because future me still wants to know what happened in the world in the last hour. And because sometimes current me needs a break and light entertainment due to the mental energy required to consider future me.
People are so afraid of being an old frail man too poor to live that they hoard every dollar they have, not realizing they’ll be dead soon anyway.
The advent of closed-loop fuel control has helped oil service life as well, but I think the “it’s cheap insurance” psychology is a message that makes sense to primitive human brains well beyond the underlying engineering data, leading us to over-service expensive things.
Confluence + Jira is a common combination. It is good to have an alternative to one of these. Anyone has info or suggestion on what are good open source alternatives for Jira?

Too little, too late. If only we have been much faster and stronger to react we could have avoided this WHOLE epidemic with a mere ~1 month hard lockdown... (instead we indeed seem to have picked one of the worst ways to deal with it, short of course of no measures at all)
Finally an interesting problem. Off the top of my head I'd guess you'd issue a new token to executor of the estate and establish that token as representative of the underlying asset rather than the original token.
Yes, compare it to art.

Why not solve a real world puzzle then? To me, it's kind of like deliberately spilling a bag of sand on the floor, then toiling by picking up each grain with tweezers. Sure, it is difficult, and nobody can deny the work that you did, but you also created the work and the constraints yourself.

I think I just don't "get it" and my pov is probably colored by frustrating interactions that I have at work where people do the similar things in code shared by others, to (seemingly) demonstrate "their skills."
Yes, the point is that it looks similar to water hemlock, which is extremely poisonous.
Two reasons, chiefly.

Every body is governed by circadian rhythm. There is no "right" or "wrong" way to be, but the majority tends to overrule the minority in this great experiment we call modern society. Unfortunately, the "majority" are not developing children, but adults in authority who are less affected by disruptions to their sleep and don't have to prioritize the health and wellbeing of their charges and so don't.

The second reason is more artificial. In the US, homework is given without any consideration for work or life schedules, let alone what other classes are assigning. I went to a "school of excellence" where I took eight classes each day, five days a week, and they all assigned roughly an hour's worth of homework each night. I had no time to work and barely any time to participate in extracurriculars without staying up each night until 11pm. Because I lived in a different city, I generally had to leave by 5:45am to make my zero period.

Can you tell me what my younger self could have done differently so they were able to be asleep by 9pm?
Well, one of the big reasons people use services like Snapchat is so they can talk to people they meet in semi-sketchy circumstances without giving out their phone number (which can be used to track or stalk them). Moxie seems to insist that the only way to build a successful service is using telephone numbers, but clearly that is false as the world's largest unencrypted messengers--which should be the enemy, NOT WhatsApp!!!!!!!!--do not use phone numbers as identifiers and allow users to hide them even if they are collected.
Just added two events that led downtime for Bitcoin.
Not really. Just making the point that believing you're advocating for social good does not mean you are doing social good.

I'm guessing Eisenhower, Euclid and Fermi would have had no problem with people disagreeing with them.
The ISP happily routes all IP traffic. Their court-sanctioned solution was just blocking their default nameserver from giving any records for thepiratebay.com. This can be easily circumvented by editing your hosts-file, using some other DNS server than the ISP's, or running your own DNS server.
> because no one in their right mind should ever install the home version of windows by choice.

With Home a workaround I've found is just creating a throwaway windows account, then after installation creating a local user/local login and removing that throwaway account.

However one has to be careful one's license does not become/is not associated with that account.
Looks really nice! If one was to implement a simple "3d arcball rotator" viewer for 3d formats to get familiar with the engine (i.e. load obj, view) can you suggest which examples would be most relevant (presuming bevy architecture is the only unfamiliar topic here)?
I'm just learning myself, and I found just Visual Studio Code and the Rust extension are great on Windows
It's way more than 300,000. Maybe people physically touching cars and car parts but there are thousands of small companies making very small parts like lighting, the handle for seat adjustments, the foam that goes into the seat, small plastic parts, and many more.

Numbers I could find in a study made by the research group of the German parliament [1] were 800,000 and those are only people directly employed by manufacturers and their suppliers.

I have never had this happen to me but I'm always prepared to walk out the door the same day I hand in my 2 week's.

Any personal effects that I'm not using regularly have already snuck home with me during the previous week or two. Documentation I've been meaning to write has at least been attempted to be cleaned up.
Idk but do you need brain implants or somehow it would be possible to do it without them?
Yep. 55 now, and the same. A year can pass and feel like nothing. Especially the last two COVID years. Just feels like a long nap sometimes. I think it's because as we get older, our lives are not changing much. 0-10 years each year brings big changes in our physical growth, intellectual understanding of the world, literally every day brings something new. 10-20 is similar, but the pace starts to slow down. By the time you're 50, one year is pretty much the same as the another. Kids are grown or close to it, you're probably not job-hopping, you're settled in your home. Everything is routine.
The large chassis castings in the Model Y, however, are an aluminum alloy.
Well sure. Where's the money in letting people buy homes, pay them off and then just live there for free? There's hardly even any worthwhile interest on a mortgage. Far more profitable to just have all the little people rent; they'll pay every penny they earn for healthcare, food, and somewhere safe to sleep. I'm surprised it's taken this long.

I've never played tennis in my life but I have a general idea how it works from pop culture so let's see if I can reason it out.

The reason must have to do with either judging or playing the game (otherwise, why bother?). I'm no physicist or aeronautics engineer but I presume the fuzz is relatively negligible on ball speed over short distances, so it's probably not related to how the ball flies. It also doesn't seem realistic that it interacts with the racket or the court. One not so serious thought is perhaps it's got to do with net dynamics but that seems like an edge case I professional play. I haven't really watched tennis but I imagine most volleys end in balls bouncing out of bounds or a player not being able to return a hit. A little excessive to add fuzz for that. I also considered that maybe it's a means of having something adhere to the ball (like if it bounces on the line) but they have high speed cameras and line judges for those sorts of things. Guessing it's not that.

If it doesn't affect the dynamics of the ball or the adjucation of a play, it seems to me that it's instead a more general indicator. You touch the fuzzy ball before every serve and feel the fuzziness. You have a finger sense for a good ball and worn one. If the ball is fuzzy enough, it's good enough. Therefore, it seems to me it's a quality indicator for players to know when to switch out.

And I looked it up, it turns out I'm quite bad at physics! Won't spoil it any further for others trying to guess.
Part of what attracted me to technology, computers, programming, etc is the ability and freedom to tinker and experiment with ideas.

If I’m building something professionally, then difficulty in building, reading and maintaining is a problem.

If I’m building something to learn or to be creative, I don’t worry about how difficult it is to build or read or maintain: my aim is different, and therefore so are my concerns.
I didn't think the "Stories" feature would be as controversial as "MobileCoin" integration but apparently it does on HN? This would just push me to disable it (if possible) whenever it is finally rolled out or, inspire me to remove it from my system.
Right. I think the fix is to ship iMessage for Android rather than support the privacy violation, though. If they shipped iMessage for Android, they would probably be more aggressive about refusing to revert back to SMS/MMS.
Oops, yes, thanks so much!
Why - they aren't a threat to anyone. There's no real difference in transmissibility. Unless you think the vaccines don't work, in which case, why do you even care.
> Yes, the Bitcoin Network has been down two times in the past. Once in 2010 for around 9 hours, known as the Value overflow incident where a block contained a transaction that created 184 billion Bitcoins for three different addresses. The network was soft forked to not allow any more than 21 million Bitcoins ever.

> And once again in 2013 for 7 hours, known as the March 2013 Chain Fork, where a block that had a larger number of total transaction inputs than previously seen was mined and broadcasted. While Bitcoin 0.8 nodes were able to handle this, some pre-0.8 Bitcoin nodes rejected it, causing an unexpected fork of the blockchain. A new released a version 0.8.1, forked directly from 0.8.0 solved this issue without any harm to the network.

It can, but with care you can largely resolve this. And you can always disable pipelining if the performance benefits aren't worth it to you. Unity has a great article on this topic here: https://blog.unity.com/technology/fixing-time-deltatime-in-u...
For sure. Honestly, I would love to have an established open-source respecting company like RedHat come along and say "We'll be your official hosting partner, we'll handle hosting, payments and offer these services, we'll need x hours from you per week for support, otherwise focus on the project, we'll give you £x per month, You retain ownership and other revenue streams."

A bit idealist and of course the contract would be more complicated, but to focus on the project while having established support would be ideal.
There seems to be a growing interest in pawpaws. Stories about them were featured on a lot of food podcasts this fall and seems like it’s the “it” uncommon food at the moment, or staged to be.

It will be interesting if anyone is able to bring them to market at scale, it seems like agriculture departments at several universities have programs to work on different varietals with better shelf-life and shipping characteristics.

About 75% of QAL flowers also have a single black umbel in the center of the flower. Not the best eating then from what I gather, but in addition to the texture of the stalks that's a good indicator.

What you are saying is not that you like the art for it’s artistic value, because it has been established that you can look at it whether you own it or not. What you enjoy is the “ego” part of saying you “own” the NFT in question, just like people that buy expensive paintings when they say they are not buying it for the money, but instead that they are an art lover. You are doing it because it strokes your ego. Let’s at least get past the part of the argument where we pretend that looking at the art is question the main driver. I am not even saying that the ego part is inherently wrong, just different than how you describe it. It is non-monetary at least, but I can see how describing it this way is not as altruistic sounding as “loving the art” is.
Maxima has been free software for ages! Now it has a rubbish UI in my opinion, but just like now, the free options are there but they are less easy to use, getting better though. Both SymPy and Sagemath are interesting to look at.
I'm interested in this, but I'm doing something wrong.

On the one hand, I've downloaded AnkiDroid and played with it a bit. But I have the impression that just "seeing" the card isn't helping me. I need to be forced to write down the answer.

On the other hand, I've struggled to understand what "kind" of things should go in to a card. For example, verbs: I'm learning a language that has a complex verb conjugation structure. What I really need is to study the conjugation table. But instead the usual cards I download just ask the infinive form, and then display the conjugation table in the back - I'm not going to sit down and study the conjugation table when I'm swiping cards. When I sit down and study I do without cards, so I don't see the benefit...?

I feel I'm missing the trick.
