You know what, you mention something that has pissed me off with a recent evolution of American culture by citing two examples I find relevant, so I'll expand.

Star Wars is a 1977 movie. It actually consciously uses the codes (and copies some scenes!) of WWII war movies. What are the heroes doing in it? They are helping a big organization (the rebellion) fight a formidable enemy. Just managing to flee from such an enemy is a heroic endeavor.

Compare it to today. In most, if not all, blockbuster movies, organizations that the heroes belong to are either incompetent, corrupt, are a hindrance when they are not the main antagonist. There is a total loss of the idea that belonging to an organization can make sense and can help a personal journey.

Sheriffs, policemen, journalists, they used to be the heroes of various fictions. Now we seem to refuse to believe that these can be heroes. We refuse to believe that collaboration with a team can be effective. Actually, now it is a trope that if the hero has a trustworthy associate, treason will happen some time in the storyline.

And somehow I understand what it is about: people are disgruntled with their work. They realize the company they are working in is not helping their personal hero's journey and hindering it. But really, the reaction that "therefore I shall do it all alone" is really bad.
If I had to guess, neither China nor the US Navy care about generating a profit from the reactors.
Their last sentence literally said "data races which would be common when using read() and write() without locks."
I know it's a field. I assumed it was a crowded one. Apparently not... unless I'm misunderstanding. That's what I'm asking.
What? Nobody is advocating for integration tests to the exclusion of unit tests.

but apart from the fact that nobody can agree on what an "integration test" is

Not being precise doesn't invalidate a guideline. The ideas that "stubbing less is better" and "testing functionality end to end is good bang-for-buck" aren't crappy because people don't agree on the details.

it just becomes immediately apparent in a code base of sufficient size that "just use integration tests for everything" is only possible if you severely under-test

Your parent comment said "If we're building a rocket ship, you need both granular testing and coarse testing." Nobody is advocating for integration tests to the exclusion of unit tests. If you write a hash table or a CSV parser, yes you should unit test it.

But for most application-ish functionality you should reach for integration tests first. For example, testing direct message functionality in an app, checking that after a send there's a notification email queued and the recipient inbox endpoint says there's 1 unread will get you really far in 20 lines of code. Is it exhaustive? Of course not. But the simplicity is a huge virtue.

if you severely under-test (which usually includes thing like not properly testing for error conditions etc.)

I advocate "default to integration testing for application functionality". Those focused on unit tests often mock exactly the things most likely to break: integration points between systems. "Unit" tests of systems are often really verbose, prescriptive about internal state, and worst of all don't catch the bits that actually break.
comrade, this is but a necessary stepping stone towards a true classlessness, trust me!

No, a version of that exemption was first added in 2010. Each exemption has to be readded every new listing.

And that exemption only adds cases in which stripping DRM from a DVD becomes legal. It's still generally illegal, and most people using makemkv are likely using it illegally.

> I still can't fathom why anyone thinks it's OK to leave cats outside to roam free.

See, I can't fathom the opposite. Cats belong outdoors. I will never have an indoor cat. Vote me down as much as you like, THAT is unnatural (I will also not have exoctic cats that could only live indoors).

The greatest danger to songbirds is human changes to the environment, not cats, by several orders of magnitude. Animals having predators is not exactly unnatural, to put it carefully.

Although I do wish we could create cats, by selection or some day by gene editing, that leave birds alone completely.
Thank you for your response, it seems to be much better informed about both the technical side, and also the public choice side of the issue, than I typically see on sites like HN.
Heels are on ground. Legit
I don't see the point of using this when you can just use a search engine to look up the same information for free.

I think it would be more interesting too hook it up to stack overflow and actually answer people's questions.
I wouldn't be surprised if the squirrels like them too.

uh... but if those predators are bred by humans, it's unnatural
cat-estrophic failure
I tried Immanuel Kant and Søren Kierkegaard. But yes search is extremely difficult.
I have heard that cats murder so many birds... but just the shear math of it seems to make it likely a myth. I've watched cats outside, it takes them _forever_ to kill even 1 bird, let alone 20 a day, or whatever the claim is.

They kill mice, squirrels, rabbits, ground stuff, etc... _way_ faster and more frequently.

I did some googling and there seems to be some truth to this, although following the numerical estimate back toward the source finds "near-crashes" expressed less dramatically as "close encounters", defined as within 1km, most of which occur with other Starlink satellites.
When I lived in Japan I had no interest in Buddhism. It's sad, now I do, and so much of the language is influenced by Buddhism. There is a word ("gedatsu") which if pronounced according to the rules of converting Chinese characters (kanji) to their Japanese pronunciation would be kaidatsu. The word means enlightenment. It harkens back to a different era in the language when people could recite 800 page books from memory.
> I think all the channels you named were popular enough before the clickbait become nearly mandatory.

If that's the case, their viewership and growth right now would either be stagnant or on a steady decline. Is that the case? I doubt it.
I live in the upper latitudes, and have both a Starlink and a couple outdoor cats who like to get into trouble. Unfortunately, I haven't spotted any of them really approaching the dish itself...

I think it mostly comes down to two things:

1. The satellite dish doesn't warm up that much. It basically just heats itself to be hot enough to melt the ice, and that's more or less it. It still feels fairly cool to the touch on a winter day. 90% of the time, I'd imagine your router will be hotter than the dish itself.

2. The dish also makes a very faint whirring noise as it tracks satellites across the sky. You can only really notice it when you get within 5 feet of it, but I'm pretty sure my cats hate it. Sometimes they'll huddle at the base of the dish if it's a particularly cold day, but most of the time the motor sounds are enough to drive them away.

Knowing how much companies like Starlink like useless novelty features, maybe a "cat deterrence" button in the app would be in order. Make the dish spin around a few times until the cats get scared. I dunno, food for thought.
We do? I know of pup mills, I am unaware of cat mills. Maybe for exotic cats, but those would be the types people keep at home because they would not fare so well outside anyway.

And since when is one species doing something that benefits another unnatural? That exists among animals too.
Well then check out this whitepaper from the 5G 2021 Meeting:

"5G Localization and Context-Awareness"

https://www.5gitaly.eu/2018/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/5G-It...

Or how about this one, "5G Network-Based Passive Radar". I don't have access to the full text, but the abstract tells me enough:

> This paper presents the pioneering results of successful target detection using a fully operational and cooperative 5G cellular network as a source of illumination in a passive radar system.

https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9661315

Or this one, a high level technical roadmap:
"Enabling Joint Communication and Radar Sensing in Mobile Networks -- A Survey"

https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.07559

Another one: "High-Accuracy Localization for Assisted Living - 5G systems will turn multipath channels from foe to friend" (300+ citations)

https://wides.usc.edu/Updated_pdf/witrisal2016.pdf

There are at minimum dozens of peer reviewed articles about both active and passive sensing and localization applications of mm-wave antenna arrays of all sorts, including those involved in the 5G project. I can't list them all, but here are some keywords you can use in google scholar:

- device free localization

- passive localization

- perceptive mobile networks

- passive sensing

- passive identification

- joint communication and sensing

Just add "5G", "mobile networks" or "mm-wave antenna array" and you're good to go

You know this is not true in any meaningful sense of the word "near-crash", because Starlink satellites have been in orbit for years and have not collided with anything.

When you drive down the highway, do you consider every passing car a "near-miss"? That is the only way that your statement seems at all plausibly correct.
Bilingualism in Canada is not about providing both languages automatically in all contexts. Radio-Canada and the CBC are two distinct public broadcasters under a shared corporate structure.

So they have two websites, two networks of stations (TV and radio), and they share buildings where it makes sense, but a news article in French Radio-Canada will not mean the English CBC will even be interested to publish anything on the subject.

C'est deux solitudes.

Sounds about right to me.
Having the dish on the ground isn't too smart either the snow will get deeper and cover it cats or no cats.
That's because you're not on those frequencies, see the other comments. 4G(+) works great, sure. You're not downloading 20 Gbps, are you?
You’ve put enough thought into this to just go ahead and do it, I think.

> Worked examples, like other passive learning situations, can cause an 'illusion of knowledge' - feeling like you know and understand, but not really.

As a former educator, my experience is in opposition to this. Students who looked at worked examples and then did practice problems improved their learning rapidly but often felt like they weren't learning that much. Students who worked really hard to "figure it out" and failed often felt really intense feelings of gratification and deep understanding but, in fact, often had a worse understanding of material. I learned (as one of the studies you links indicates) that feelings of deep understanding or learning aren't very correlated with educational outcomes except insofar as they keep you motivated.

For any flaws CLT has I've never seen an alternative theory of learning that seems provide guidance that is even half as effective, both professionally and personally (I've A|B tested both myself and students a fair bit).

United States Pirate Party
Our name might seem silly at first, but you should remember everyone has been labelled a pirate at some point in the last few decades. Movie studios and recording companies place their propaganda in front of us at every chance they get, they waste your time with warnings on DVDs you’ve legitimately purchased or movies you watch at the cinema. They’ve told us over and over that home taping on to cassettes would kill the radio, that recording a TV show on to the VCR would bring an end to free-to-air TV, or sharing an MP3 music song with a friend will cause the end of musicians’ careers. The list goes on but here’s the important point: at every turn, at every change in technology, the rights-holders always say the same thing: ‘no, we don’t want you doing that’.
These rights-holders donate to our major political parties, they’ve lobbied for and changed our laws to protect their profits and their outdated distribution monopolies. They’ve had their hand in writing trade agreements and international law, all in a failing attempt to control how you access your culture online. This is how the Pirate movement began; as a reaction to the corrupt corporate, political, and rent-seeking encroachment on a free and open internet, and our democracy.
Feel this mental model approach is part of the appeal of Scheme and SICP as you start with simple replace model but near the end (still exploring chapters 4,5) you get shown how to build an interpreter which forces you to know how it all works because otherwise it doesn't.

TL;DR - 5G enables the kind of thing shown in the climax of The Dark Knight where every cell phone in the city is turned into an all seeing radar.
If they're feral there's not a lot we can do. We can capture them and fix them so they don't reproduce but they can't be homed and killing them would be evil.

Outdoor cats are a bit more complex but its also cruel to lock up an animal all day in a home. They need stimulation and exercise.

The real fix is to ban pet ownership. No one likes to talk about that because so many of us need pets for emotional stability and companionship, but pretty much all pet ownership is unethical. Birds getting killed really is the tip of the iceberg, as in, its the most visible part of this problem, but so much more lies below it, supporting it and creating this situation.

I love animals and don't eat them, nor do I keep them as pets. I fully believe this is the right way to go in life. People attacking this type of pet owner vs that type of pet owner are missing the forest for the trees here, and I suspect getting a nice ego boost over being the "better" animal jailer. Logically, emotionally, and ethically, pet ownership simply cannot be made humane, good for pets, or good for wildlife. The only fix is to get rid of pet culture entirely.

We aren't going to stop creating buildings with windows. Outside of that, the largest killer of birds is by cats, by a long shot. Which is literally 100% preventable. And no, humans are NOT an order of magnitude more than cats, not even close.

They are killing machines. Cute, cuddly killing machines. But they also kill vermin that eat garden plants. If you've got a serious vegetable garden going, outdoor cats can really help take care of gophers, rabbits, squirrels, and mice. Won't take care of the deer though, but a good fence and a 12 gauge will.

Thanks for posting this. I've casually wondered for a while now how one might go about synthesizing magpie songs, so it's nice to have so many specific frequencies, acoustic terms, and further resources all laid out here.

This is a nitpick beacause it's hardly the focus of the article, but I'm not sure if the warbling they describe is strictly an individual activity. During the laziest part of the day, after everybody has had plenty of grubs, you can see and hear them aimlessly dueting in their trees for hours.

I didn't read it as dismissive. It's totally exciting to see privacy technology spread all over the cryptocurrency space. I think this should be the default.

Monero is pretty amazing but I've read some fair criticisms of it's privacy guarantees. New technology is always good and we'll get to see first hand which one is better.
I'm curious to see if this could get any worse when all 12,000 of their satellites are up there. Plus not to mention there could be competitors putting up another 12k of their own satellites.

And? So you're going to take a syscall (mincore()?) hit before every file-backed mapping access to test if it'd incur a page fault, and try switch to another coroutine if it would?

Syscalls aren't free, especially today, and mmap() is already bringing significant overhead to the party.

If you've brought coroutines into the picture, you might as well schedule them using async IO completions and kick mmap() to the curb.

Given all the many articles about the decline of many kinds of birds, your claim that cats are to blame is plain wrong. That was not the conclusion in any of those many articles that we could read right here on HN. Lack of environment and of food - insects is the usual culprit named in them.

Cats are one reason, but certainly not the dominating one. Neither would cats matter at all without the other reasons because there would be plenty of birds.

In this discussion I'll take the downvotes with pride, this is getting ridiculous.
I see a ton of cool fedi people from that site. Rock on!
I don’t get it. When I unit test, I want to only test what I’m testing. A dependency or the result of a dependency is not what I’m testing. So I mock the result of that dependency to unlink the test from the dependency. If an interface changes I generally want to know anyway, as the test may be different or even obsolete depending on the change.
But how many systems do we really need here, though? Where do you draw the line? Can I have an RSS feed that's updated automatically when someone says something in IRC? I'll just sub to the RSS feed, but only if it also converts the text into Markdown so I can...

Why isn't Discord just enough? Or just IRC? Honestly I think this fragmentation that gets suggested is why a lot of projects fail; never stand the test of time: they try to be everything to everyone.
Acyclovir is shown to decrease viral replication in vivo. There is no such evidence for monolaurin. So there’s that.
I thought, space being huge, a near crash would be defined as within maybe 100 miles. It turns out it's within 1 km. Recently, and famously, with an ESA vehicle. Of concern then was that Starlink was either unable or unwilling to move their satellite to avoid a collision.

Iassume that there will be in the next decade a Kessler syndrome event that knocks out a huge swath of LEO, including the Starlink orbit zone. The debris may deorbit on it's own, but it may take five years.
Also adds defense-in-depth against stolen credentials -- it means an attacker can't just exfiltrate stolen SSH credentials to use sometime later from somewhere else on the Internet (or sell them / pass them along to a different specialist) -- the attacker either has to use them in-place, or break into some other machine that's also on the allow-list.
Judicial use of utility spacing classes is a pretty good option here.

Instead of...

.btn {
margin: 8px;
background: whitesmoke;
}

<button class="btn">Send</button>

Use utility classes in the markup rather than spacing in the reusable definition...

.btn {
background: whitesmoke;
}

.m-8 {
margin: 8px;
}

<button class="btn m-8">Send</button>

This approach yields decent readability, fewer elements than if we needed containers wall around, and good flexibility for many contexts and situations.
