Ah, spreading too thin. Yes, I think that's a possibility. I also think not developing certain features can make one lose relevance. It's a trade off, no? I guess it just depends on someone's definition of a feature being "useless" and "irrelevant." Someone else sees live location as a necessary feature, I've never used it. Whereas I use statuses on WhatsApp almost every day.
Something else was found and they aren't saying.
I think the point is worth foot-stomping that the technology doesn't care. Capabilities and data exist, they will be leveraged however they are leveraged.

Legal restrictions are good as far as they are heeded. Legal restrictions usually include some "emergency" exception mechanism.

The government merely needs to torture some facts to meet "emergency" criteria, and, behold!, all of those heretofore useful capabilities do the unexpected.

One can call this an "entirely theoretical risk", but, given recent abuses, others might call it an inevitability.
This Netflix site lists the preferred capture formats (RAW, REDCODE RAW, X-OCN, etc.) for recording the video. What file format would be used to submit the final video (edited with audio and captions) to Netflix?
Out of curiosity, why did you stop your meditation routine?

Anyway, I agree with you — meditation appears to be able to make that kind of introspection automatic, which is a real boon. That's true in my own experience over the past 3 months as a n00b[1], and seems to be the case for many/most people.

It (automatically) changes the "I don't want to do rowing" feeling into an observation like, "Oh, here's the predictable urge to not do rowing arising". It's a subtle difference, but the main point is that it feels different and separate from "I (me, myself) don't want to do X".

Obviously, "I don't want to row" isn't accurate. PREVIOUS you wanted to row, or you would not have bought the rowing machine. SUBSEQUENT you will presumably be happier and more satisfied (and a bit healthier!) if you do the rowing.

It's just the shard of you in THIS MOMENT that "doesn't want to" — and even that is likely inaccurate if you notice and examine the urge. It is probably just one of several competing thoughts/sensations arising in consciousness.

What meditation practice (pretty quickly) makes automatic is something you can also intentionally do on purpose, if you have a lot of energy and your willpower reserves are holding up: enable making the decision of whether to engage with and identify with this thought, and therefore perpetuate it into the next moment (and the next, and the next), or to just let it pass away on its own.

[1]: I started by reading the book "Ten Percent Happier", thought the science-based benefits of meditation sounded interesting, and tried a few of the apps available. I settled on Waking Up (and, accidentally, Ten Percent Happier since I forgot to cancel the trial subscription, so now I do both). I think each of these apps might suit one's personality differently, depending, but any of them will do the trick. You also don't need an app; you could just read a book, but app is an easier way to get started.

It is like weight-lifting: the gains for n00bs are easy and almost impossible not to get. You just have to do it.

You totally don't have to do it well. I "couldn't" meditate at all at first, even with guidance. I couldn't tell anything different was happening, compared to me just sitting there. It took maybe twenty ten-minute sessions before I was like, "oh, I think I just meditated for a couple seconds". As I progressed, I realized my previous self-assessments weren't accurate, but after two months of daily meditation (just 10-15 minutes a day!) I noticed not only that I could now do it (part of this was learning that finding yourself lost in thought, and letting the thoughts dissipate and just refocusing on the breath or whatever the object of meditation is), but also that I was getting IRL benefits from it later, during daily life when not meditating.
Debating the size of the crew is fun and all, and yes, traditionally for a full crew, this is the purview of the 2nd AC. As the crew gets smaller, those duties roll up to the next person.

The fact that a "log" is still a thing in today's productions is not dependant on which crew member is doing it. In fact, with all of the digital f/x, they are crucial.
I'm glad your cousin stood her ground. Forcing her to uproot her entire digital ecosystem because someone else can't be bothered to install a messenger app (while rewarding Apple for anti-competitive behavior) is terrible and kinda selfish.

The only real solution is for everyone to switch to Telegram or WhatsApp or some other platform that works on ALL devices. Vendor lock-in is bad for everyone. In the long run, its in everyone's best interest to move away from iMessage to a more open platform.
How is this newsworthy and why is it on the front page of HN?
Awesome, on my watch-later list!
SystemV init allows for init scripts to run in parallel, but that was rarely used. Most time spent was anyhow waiting for network (e.g. the MTA trying to resolve the hostname) and hardware initialization. Bourne shell isn't particularly fast, but ten years ago hardware used for typical Linux desktop/server systems was fast enough that it hardly mattered (it's used here for sequentially starting system processes, not number crunching). Not that it matters -- how often do you boot a desktop/server in a day? Performance mattered for VMs deployed in the cloud on request, but whether a full OS is the best choice for such services is a different topic ...
After reading all these replies, I'm glad Musk never listened to people who said he couldn't make a cheap, reliable rocket that could land on its tail.

Google remove LBRY a competitor to youtube, for a random "sexual imagery". Yet twitter is has a TOS that allows full explicit porn, and twitter is on both apple and google markets. Coub had to remove their NSFW channel on the android app, and block it from mobile browsers to make apple/google happy.

Twitter gets a pass thou.

I have mixed feelings about this.

I suspect Haskell has enough base-level complexity to be productive in it that it gets in the way of its adoption.

Contrast that to say writing something to serve http requests in Go. The number of complex concepts or idioms in related library pieces is comparatively very low. [0]

I’ve found the complexity of the solution should match the complexity of the problem being solved.
If the solution has equivalent number of moving pieces and choices as the problem space requires, then it’s been made “as simple as possible, not simpler”.
This is where some languages (tools) are better suited to a problem than others. Don’t reach for imperative patterns when css declaratively does what you want and has matured enough to have boiled down the very good ways of doing it.

I like Joe Armstrong’s approach of writing and then iterating a solution (a method, part of a feature, whole feature) until the extra dead material falls off.

So like I said, I have mixed feelings about this.
It’s a shame to have to add artificial complexity.

[0]: Go and it’s libraries are admittedly not a perfect example. I find Go leans a little past the edge in trying to make things simpler than they actually are. But it’s not too far off.

Why are MHL signature manifests not widely used outside video production?
Another hn post today lead me down a rabbit hole reading about the netflix production pipeline and i stumbled across the linked video explaining data management, besides explaining fairly cross-industry standard backup strategy it mentioned using chain of custody and mhl signature files to track file signatures to detect corruption and untracked file alteration. I have never heard about this standard before and it seems immensely useful to me, especially when working with filesystems without Bit Rot protection. (also see https://github.com/ascmitc/mhl as the only open source tool i found)
The nice thing with the Canon printers is they at least let you override the low ink warnings and still print. Sometimes I get a normal extra print or two, but it's usually pretty accurate.
Models are constantly tweaked to make them more accurate. How do you do that without looking at output and then going back to tweak it?
All you would be able to see is the sunny side of the sun shield, none of the cool (both literally and figuratively) bits, which are all in darkness.
Indeed, it's truly sad. It's an inability to deal with risk out of all proportion to the reality it actually poses. From his comments, I wonder if he actually thinks he will be dead from standing next to someone who just tested positive. The preliminary results from UK and SA indicate that this recent wave could be a blessing in that it serves as an innoculation rather than severe illness. And children his age are not at a great risk to begin with.
You’re talking about a standard PC but my roommate and many others who mined crypto with crates of gpus literally used them instead of heaters. My roommate had to setup fans to push hot air out and bring cold air in it was so hot.
> last I checked Cloudflare was free too for caching static HTML assets?

If not free then very cheap, as I understood TFA: Wasn't that why they have two separate domains and serve static assets from one of them, to be able to use the cheapest Cloudflare tier for that domain = those assets?
If you're basing the worth of building games on its success, not only is it not worth it, it was never worth it. I've been gaming since before the original IBM PC; the vast majority of games fade into the mists of history without ever having gained any particular acclaim or commercial success. The same goes for any other creative product; books, software, etc.

My observation is that the people who last long enough to reach success in any creative field are those who derive satisfaction from the act of creation for its own sake. They are driven to create and have no way of stopping. Something to ponder perhaps.
That is a good point. But I have read (famous last words) Omicron is now 95% of tested cases, it’s staggering how fast it has overtaken previous strains.

If it was say a pretty stable 50/50 or even 75/25 ratio of Omicron to Delta, that might favor shutting down in-person schools. But this current explosion in cases and resulting chaos is almost all Omicron.
I didn’t know this back story, but I thought Lost Connections was very insightful, and he is very credible in his PR:

https://open.spotify.com/episode/5vGQgHxUDx2KMhy34N2959?si=j...

I always thought he had a strange way of being interviewed where he cites sources and studies for almost everything he says. I thought this was commendable at the time rather than putting a thin veneer on other peoples ideas. Maybe it was due to the past accusation of plagiarism.
GIMP at least has an excuse in the sense that its success doesn't depend on network effects. It can win purely on technical merit.

Social apps on the other hand need network effects to win regardless of how good they are technically. A stupid name there is suicide.
I think these people should go for the refurb options I mentioned, if they’d like an iPhone.
It's minutiae to be concerned when someone who just tested positive for covid is talking to you with their mask down?
The orthodoxy's stance has been to make the most mild predictions possible for decades. And now, we're seeing worse-than-predicted extreme weather events. Go figure.
What makes this even more egregious is that it isn't 30% of profits that Apple seeks as rent, but 30% of all revenue. A 15% to 30% rent on all revenue automatically makes many businesses completely infeasible, especially those with low margins. The end result is that market innovation and efficiency are suppressed so that Apple can turn an ~80% profit margin[1] via the App Store at the expense of new and small businesses.

Let me bet, they stare at each other to express feelings, very very often as a way of stretching the duration of scenes?
Well, how do you define a 'flame war'? Specifically, what besides the fact that someone is challenging your view?
The real villain here is the carriers who did not provide the infrastructure for large MMS attachments. If there was a widely supported standard Apple would probably implement it, instead the standard limit is 1MB or something so videos will just generally suck.
This is not true. The case fatality rates are very similar. https://www.cmaj.ca/content/192/25/E666

Even if the rates were very different, the any difference claimed to be caused by specific measures would not necessarily be causal as implied by brimnes. For example, what are risk factors for COVID? Here are some data on obesity: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/products/databriefs/db56.htm#:~:tex.... What about weather differences? The list goes on.
I have preschool aged kids in Long Island. They have been to class for 3 days in the past 5 weeks. Every time they return to school there’s another student or teacher who tests positive and the class is closed for 10 days. Last year they missed 8 weeks of school. The impact is detrimental to the children and incredibly challenging for parents.
That's true. I stopped taking pictures of everything once I realized I never look at them later, and nobody else gives a crap about my pictures (remember the old jokes about watching the neighbors slide show of their vacation? It's still the same). I use my phone camera maybe once a month, and it's to take a picture of a receipt or something I need to remember but I don't have a pen and paper handy.
Reminds me of dotgrid from 100rabbits http://100r.co/site/dotgrid.html
Good thing high school students never live in multigenerational households, right? Or otherwise have family members at high risk?
Well, seems we agree, it’s a good thing you don’t have to spend a grand to get an iPhone (or a high-end Galaxy…). If you want to try an iPhone, try a refurb, to get you closer to the $200-300 price point.
Agreed! I like grpc for the same reason. If I need to work with REST, a schema-first approach is ideal as it means various client, server, validation, and documentation dimensions are in sync by default.

I get why folks often come at it from the other end and just layer some swagger annotations on top of their existing server code — lack of experience, the dynamicist’s mistrust of typing in general, or maybe they’re in a niche stack without a workable binding generator.

Still, it’s better for everyone if the API provider can pull off the artifact-driven approach.
Thanks, I could have sworn that before I switched back to iOS, I was getting a bunch of "<X> loved a message" from iOS users. Maybe it improved in newer iterations.
As ceras said (and I thought I made explicit), I'm not talking about those not vaccinated, but rather those who did get vaccinated.

Get vaccinated and move on - the data shows that you are safe after being vaccinated. Masks and lockdowns are no longer accomplishing anything.
I agree with you about how ugly the split screen effect is, but that's not strictly a camera issue -- you can sync strobes to your genlock signal. That reflects a production choice not a camera choice.

The quality of global shutter cameras is simply nowhere near the quality of rolling shutter cameras, though there are more acceptable options showing up these days, they still typically have lower dynamic range and generally worse specs.

> you are modeling a complex chaotic system, you just cannot do it accurately

You can't really model anything "accurately", but you can assign a subjective (probability is subjective) probability to certain outcomes based off an analysis of your model, and what in your best judgement are the correct parameters.

This is why the papers containing uncertainty analysis of varying quality, the press releases will have some handwaving, and the articles in the newspapers will contain nothing of the sort.
Sadly one of the the problems is, it's dark where it is. The mirror side is in complete darkness (because of the sunshield), and the sun side is blazingly bright (because of the reflective sunshield).

This is the unfortunate reality of space: The images we see from the Hubble, et al, are exposed for minutes if not hours, and processed to bring out colors invisible to the human eye. An astronaut flying to see the Webb, or one of many other "well known" astronomical landmarks would see either nothing or a faint smudge without a telescope or other enhancements.

The aforementioned NASA blog post goes into the many other reasons this wasn't practical.
I don't buy it. I think if they had something they wouldn't run with a piece this vague and noncommittal. There's no meat here.
Yeah but if you see blue you have way more confidence that you are talking to a real person…
I did a speed run through the tutorial after discovering it here on HN. I have been itching to write a rougelike for a few months, and I happened to have the time to spare.

Overall, it was a lot of fun, and I enjoyed the process. I have not played with Python for a while, so this was a nice refresher. Your tutorial also brought me up to speed on the modern static typing support.

As for my process, I copy and pasted each set of changes, working through each part in turn. Overall, I stuck fairly close to the tutorial code, though every part received some amount of custom changes to keep things interesting. Very easy to follow.

I created a custom Dockerfile to encapsulate all of the required dependencies, using a Makefile to test/check the code inside a container. I used `mypy` for checking types, which helped find track down the bugs introduced by my custom changes.

It would be nice to see a new version that eliminates the refactoring steps that prefix Parts 6 and 8. Those unexpected grinds took a little bit of wind out of the sails, but the changes were ultimately worthwhile.

Another suggestion would be to encapsulate all of the game parameters into their own class from the start, such that you can pass an instance of that around rather than a half dozen individual variables.

But really, those are relative nits to pick. I would recommend this tutorial to anyone familiar with Python as a way to learn the internals of roguelikes built using TCOD.
Yep, my Brother colour laser runs perfectly on coloured sawdust or whatever the eBay cartridges contain.

In fact, it works so well that I almost feel bad that I'm not rewarding Brother by throwing down over £250 on a set of 4 cartridges, but there are limits, when the off brand ones are £5 a throw.
I guess the videos I watched made it seem more sure than it is... at the very least they left themselves open to the possibility of it if it makes sense to do.
As all the unfolding SPOFs have finally been overcome, the title deserves an exclamation point.
This is exactly over engineering and solving for the wrong problem. It can be solved easily d efficiently in other ways.
The centralised marketplaces themselves (like OpenSea) are able to and might try to police duplicate NFTs, or other counterfeit near-matches. I'm not actually sure if they actually do.

But on the blockchain itself, the NFT is just a smart contract (bit of code, bit of data) that knows it's current owner, it's name and a URI pointing at the image. There zero mechanism preventing duplicates.

Hell, it's such an unregulated market that the NFT might be based on a custom smart contract with a backdoor that allows the creator to steal it back at any time.
I'm curious...what happened with the override or how did systemd modify its unit files?

Is it something like a forgiving parser going rogue in an edge case?

The only thing I could think of is a systemd default setting that was added to logind.conf or something similar...that's why I'm asking.
From a quick look at the demo it looks nice, however i think that since people are more likely to read than edit, the "Actions" should be lower than the navigation panels. E.g. in this:

https://demo.bookstackapp.com/books/bookstack-demo-site/page...

Instead of "Actions", "Page Navigation", "Book Navigation" it should be "Page Navigation", "Book Navigation", "Actions".

Note: this seems to be an issue when the window width isn't too high to put the actions at the right side. I only noticed it after i wrote the above since i use a narrow width for the browser as my monitor is large and it makes it easier to read text. Regardless, in this "narrow mode" i think the actions should be placed after navigation.
Portability of JVM is a myth. There are many small differences between implementations, platforms, toolkits. Moreover, while Java language continues to improve the syntax, many projects stuck with the old versions of it, and seem not in hurry to upgrade, thus preventing the use of them.

My understanding is that 24-bit source material (the standard when I was last recording which was several years ago) provides enough dynamic range that you can bring up the desired volume without overly muddying quiet sections with noise, especially when mixing multiple sources where that noise adds up quickly. My own personal experience recording at 16 bits was… “I must play louder and overstate my song’s understatements” because I never could get a 16 bit output that didn’t sound like garbage. Granted I’ve never been more than a novice at recording and I’m certain there’s more I could learn to work with the lower bit rate but… why?
Then autarky is the only answer, because it's hardly a problem unique to China. Companies pretty much everywhere answer to intelligence services' demands, unless they're operating in a country that's a basket case with incredibly weak control.
Absolutely agree with all this. I'd also want to add that another thing to think about is not just how unlikely any particular event is, but the probability of multiple unlikely events occurring across the globe in a relatively short time. After all, Earth is big enough that rare events will happen somewhere. Unusual weather patterns in multiple locations start to point to a systematic cause.
Even on set for static reference images (i.e. to capture lighting for light extraction, and colourchart and grey/reflect ball for matching set to the shot footage and colour correction) it mostly seems to have been Canon EOS 5Ds (II -> IV) over the past 10 years, at least in the Film VFX industry.
You can pull the .NET Core libs and SDK from your favorite Linux package managers. .NET Core will still phone home[1], though. There's also the free and open source Mono runtime for C#.

I actually appreciate, now, what systemd is trying to do, but I am not certain why it has to take over home directories and everything else to do it. And I am really uncertain why it has to have such bad taste. I can get why it uses C, even though IMHO that is a mistake. But .ini files? D-Bus? XML‽‽‽

Oh well, at least it's not YAML.
marketing is more important than the game at this point.

So can it be worth it? Sure. You just need to be extremely good at marketing, and most indie devs are not. So even if they spend tons of effort on marketing, they get drowned out by everyone else doing the same.
