I had a similar experience, I remember being mesmerized by the scrolling spectrogram as a teenager and wondering how it all worked. I used foobar2000 since it was lightning fast and I had systems with limited resources when I was younger.

But, my music library is long gone (or on some deprecated google offering). I moved to Spotify 10+ years ago and haven’t really looked back. I use it for multiple hours a day and don’t really have any complaints.
Yup, definitely that's why they had read a lot of studies first and figured out the mechanism of action is largely the same to other stimulants and moved to a much lower dosage and larger spacing when they take it. You can do a lot of damage if you're not careful. The gentleness is definitely overstated.
SMIC is already at 14nm, and ASML is allowed to continue to sell equipment for this process. The more advanced process nodes have several drawbacks; the domestic market could likely adjust to 14nm long-term.

The MIPS processor was copied for production in China (illicitly, until fully licensed), as was the DEC Alpha. There is significant processor design knowledge, and ample ability to copy any new designs produced by ARM-UK, even if they have to be scaled up to 14nm for domestic production.

Oddly enough, I learned recently that Russia prefers SPARC (known as Elbrus).
You have a source because your statement seems quite wrong.

Google tells me lead paint wasn’t banned in the UK until the 1990’s.

This sort of happens naturally with a branch-and-merge workflow. The merge commits are what matter. With bors the merge commits get tested before merge and get their commit messages populated from the PR description.

What's missing is many git tools don't let you easily filter out non-merge commits.

but that's just tagging discipline. if i tag an animal with cat and dog, that's obviously wrong. but i don't need folders to help me avoid that mistake.

if an object has five tags, it is all those things. that looks like an AND relationship to me.

the rest is search. if your tagging system only does OR searches, then that's indeed a problem, but of the implementation, not of the concept.

and there is no reason both can't coexist.

one application that i use extensively is kphotalbum. it allows me to organize photos by tags, categories, date, folders and other attributes all at the same time. i can navigate and search photos based on all of those attributes. usually i drill down a folder, and then pick tags from within that folder, or i pick tags at the the top level and then work with the folder structure of the selected images. ironically, kphotoalbum does not do well on OR relationships or exclusion of specific attributes. i often use temporary tags to help me there, which kphotoalbum makes trivially easy to use
Foobar2000 was my favorite as well back in my Windows days. But on Linux I think cmus does a great job. What exactly does Foobar2000 have that cmus doesn't?

The score is supposed to be representative of your knowledge in a subject. And the entire point of going to school is to become more knowledgeable in a subject so you can apply it somewhere in your life.

If the score was not an indicator, then it serves no purpose.
You're right - clicking in I found this question[1]:

“During the past month, other than your regular job, did you participate in any physical activities or exercises such as running, calisthenics, golf, gardening, or walking for exercise?”

The simplest thing you can do to lose weight reduce the amount of sugar that consume, eat some vegetables. and reduce your feeding window. I highly recommend just eating once a meal day. Try it for a week. I guarantee you feel better by the end of it. If not I'll give you your money back ;).

Flameshot's superior to either Gnome or KDE's defaults. (Another example - gnome-calculator is superior to kcalc, and there are probably better more obscure calendars out there too.)
I think this can't be much of a surprise.
But perhaps in a HN context, maybe the follow-on questions should be:

- has tech made things better or worse in recent years, and why?

- how could tech make things better?

For example, one might have thought the rise of mobile devices would let people be more ... mobile. "Previously I would have sat at my desk to do this task, but now I can walk to the park and do the same task." But that seems not to happen that much. Or one might suppose that wireless headsets and voice commands might lead to people being able to do stuff while walking etc. That also seems to not happen too much. When devices support our mobility, why do we feel such a powerful pull to sit on couches looking at phones?

And in a forward-looking way, though some people see opportunities for VR-based exercise, I gotta wonder how effective that will really be?
They definitely did try to keep porcelain a secret. As of gunpowder it wasn't stolen by Europeans, rather it seems that it was Mongol invasion that let the knowledge spread.

Keep in mind that the medical classification of overweight and obese don't line up with what most people think of when they hear those terms. Anyone who is taller than average and has even a little bit of muscle mass will come in as overweight or obese.

Personally it used to cause me a ton of mental anguish until I realized that BMI (the metric used to classify someone as overweight or obese) is flat out wrong. At my peak fitness level my BMI was 30. I was lifting weights 3 days a week and running 3 days a week. Lifting sessions were 90 minutes and I was capable of running half marathons in less than 2 hours. My resting heart rate was between 52 and 57 BPM. I wasn't an athlete but my fitness level was pretty good.
I don't have plans to release the source, but I do have plans to make the data easily downloadable.
> As someone who runs, I've been amazed at how many people think a MILE is a long distance to run

Most people, especially past a certain age, don’t run distances. A mile is a long distance to run for the average person (across all ages). We don’t need to gatekeep physical activity.

But fortunately you don’t need to be a runner to be active. Walking is substantially better than sitting.
Yep it is horrific. Where are the asians.... If blacks are going to complain they aren't at tech companies in sufficient numbers then whites and asians have a right to demand they aren't in NBA in high enough numbers.

Do you mind sharing the level you were interviewing for and how long did the whole interview process take?
Buran was also superior in capabilities; greater lift capacity, ability to transport more people, and attain higher orbits. It could also perform a mission entirely autonomously.

> Over and over, every piece of documentation for the Go language markets it as "simple". This is a lie. Or rather, it's a half-truth that conveniently covers up the fact that, when you make something simple, you move complexity elsewhere.

I'm not sure this is strictly true. This is true of essential complexity, but not true of accidental complexity. Some programming language abstractions introduce a lot of boilerplate and accidental complexity, so "simplifying" could just mean bringing the language more in line with a natural expression of a program.
It’s not clear that increasing physical activity will actually reduce obesity.

The good news is that exercising will improve your health outcomes regardless of your weight (http://dx.doi.org/10.1136/bjsports-2016-097400).
I have to agree, and its a piece of software I think a lot about. It doesn't do anything particularly special, if you look at the list of features you could list off many others that do the same, and many do much more.

Gems can already specify which version of Ruby they depend on: https://guides.rubygems.org/specification-reference/#require....

In practice you may not fully depend on it because people often write too permissive ranges (i.e. >= 2.7) and there has been some breaking changes between minor versions of Ruby 2.x so even if people write "~> 2.7" it may still be broken.
I've been following it for while, I really wanted to like it but I just do not see it (yet).

It's a huge investment to switch, and maybe I'm missing something but the only advantage atm seems to be "it's native". I don't have issues with speed, VSCode is plenty fast. Otherwise it's probably just struggling with plugins, and tbh I also don't particularly like how it looks.

That said, I hope they keep at it and give me a reason to switch!

Which is not impossible btw; I didn't like VSCode to start either (I was using Atom for a long time), but VSCode just won on support and that made me switch. It has come a long way, and I have come to like it after spending lots of time tweaking and theming everything.
You know, there are alternatives between a sudden total cut off of service and nothing at all. Some mechanism to prevent sudden, large unexpected bills, yes, that’s desired. Notifications are not enough.

A lot of people have provided tons of examples of follow ups by vendors in this thread where novel large orders are double checked. AWS could provide any manner of preventative policies and cost controls but they choose not to.

Given the choice between blowing 2x past the planned opex and an outage, yeah, there are plenty of applications where the latter is preferable.

> IRB now supports autocomplete, and even shows the documentation when you tab through the options.

Oh this is pretty useful. How many times have I not wanted to learn about how to use a function. Showing the documentation when tabbing through the options can save me a lot of time browsing through the ruby docs. Looking forward to using this while working.

Good to see Ruby is still moving forward :)
Firstly, hardware debouncing is a bit awkward to implement on a multiplexed matrix, since you need a debouncing circuit for each of your inputs (meaning about a dozen or so of them).

More importantly though, software debouncing offers greater flexibility. For keyboards, you usually[1] want to implement an asymmetric "eager" mode, where a key press gets registered immediately and only the key release is debounced. Since software usually does stuff on the key down event, this works to reduce latency.

[1] Well, that's what the various enthusiast mechanical keyboard firmwares do, I am not so sure that generic $random_corp keyboards do care...
I'm just noticing the shadow of the hand on the jacket of the man holding the spear. What an interesting detail to add! I don't know if anyone would have noticed that not being there. I also notice the perfect use of color on the blue tassel of the spear- how did he get the shade of paint in the light and dark parts of the tassel so exactly correct? It's almost like this was drawn from a photograph- but that can't be. I wonder if he had live models standing in to draw from?

Also, I notice that the boots they are wearing actually look very practical- they're shoes when you need shoes, and long boots when you need boots. What a good idea.
It's disappointing that the official US NIH COVID-19 treatment guidelines still don't recommend fluvoxamine. The evidence seems pretty solid now, and the risks of taking it for just a few days are very low for most patients

Anecdotal reports indicate that US physicians are already frequently prescribing it off label with good results.
The problem being is we are not technically purchasing a copy of the software. We are purchasing a license to use the software as the creator intended. I completely agree that this is asinine and needs to change, but this is the framework in which we are currently operating.
Fun computer science fact: any type system will disallow some otherwise valid programs and also allow some invalid programs. The trick for type system designers is to find a sweet spot.
100% I feel this.

I love good food, and hate sports of all kinds. I am in the 'nearly overweight' sort of body size. The only reason I haven't gone all in on the fat life is because we live where there are woods and outdoors areas. I don't want to be winded when I'm just walking around looking at things.

I was thinking about this recently when learning about Monads and that quote hits the nail on the head. It seems to me one of the main reasons so may blog posts try and fail to explain Monads is they try to explain "What" a monad is, without the motivations for why we need them. Unfortunately the "why" is very tied up the nature of functional style, laziness, etc. The primary use of a monad is it allows you to enforce execution order. If you're coming from an imperative language, execution order is a given so the reason you'd want monads really isn't clear.
Yeah I was just thinking it's about time React Native made it to the command line.
There are valid reasons to cite software, but just 'using it' is not a good reason to request citation in a paper. The software package needs to be somehow relevant to paper's content. Why cite a tool for running experiments in parallel when the paper is about breast cancer research? Not every AI paper needs to cite PyTorch.

Proper place where to surface such software dependencies is not in the paper but in the open source code released together with the paper.
If it forces Mozilla (the corp) to abandon their stupid side projects and refocus on developing Firefox, I'm all for a huge budget cut.
Ask HN: Political Twitter account using my name/job search
I am getting my resume together, about to start the job hunt for a security/red team role.

When I google my name, there is a twitter account that is my @lastnamefirstname (farily unique name); it has some pretty racist/right wing garbage posted.

I went through twitters' official "impersonation" channel (even though it's not really impersonating me), but they declined to take action.

Is this a liability in my job hunt? Is there a tactful way to say "Hey, if you google me, Im not this guy on twitter"?

I created a twitter account to have on my resume to "supersede" the one I don't control in the hopes that hiring managers would give the benefit of the doubt, but is there any other action I can take?
Sure, but allow and use are different things.
Because there’s no other way for us to find out!
And now that PR is merged...
I agree with your overall sentiment, but I have to disagree with this:

>Challenger & Columbia. Challenger wasn’t a NASA problem, it was a Politicians & Bureaucracy problem.

NASA managers overrode the recommendations of the engineers. That was absolutely a NASA problem. Sure they were under some political pressure, but they made the wrong call in the face of strong data. Columbia too was a management priorities problem.

That being said, NASA is doing great science. NASA is compromised of humans so they are therefore imperfect, but I would also love to see them get more support. Their $23 billion dollar budget is only 3% of the size of the DOD budget.

As far as SpaceX, they are a NASA subcontractor, executing goals specified by NASA. I don't understand your concern. (SpaceX also has a thriving private satellite business of course.) The entire Apollo program was executed by NASA paid subcontractors. That is how NASA operates. Their primary role is to spec, subcontract, and manage. SpaceX is doing things for less money than other subcontractors, so they are helping NASA's budget.
My fear is that very few people are actually willing to make micropayments, and publishers will continue to build their decision around ad sales. It'd be nice if there was a very easy micropayment option but if it didn't see substantial adoption I'm not sure many sites would consider it.
Thanks. I didn’t know anything about porcelain’s origin. I’m adding porcelain’s wikipedia page to my “to-read” list.

> e) Not really necessary

What do you mean? As in you didn't have a need for managing the time because you weren't really interviewing for a lot of companies or you didn't find the number of interviews too much of a burden on your time?
> But normal. The cloud of thoughts gone, I am able to make myself do anything with one thought, I have energy, the aches are gone, the tinnitus is gone, I don't second guess, I don't overthink. I just am and I do. It's amazing.

Have you been evaluated for ADHD? This is one of the classic tells. Methylphenidate is structurally and chemically very similar to cocaine.

Vyvanse is definitely the best when it comes to duration and classical stimulants. Modafinil has even longer duration, but it isn't always as effective at targeting ADHD symptoms. Vyvanse is kind of stupid expensive, but you can get a savings card. It would be $330 for me even with a good Rx plan, and the card knocks it down to $45/month. Sounds like you would also respond well to Concerta (extended release methylphenidate). I don't like it because I apparently have the metabolism of a honeybadger and get like 4-6h of otherwise "all day" meds like concerta. I have to split my vyvanse and take it in two doses to get a full day.

> This is what people like Bezos and Musk must be like

My headcannon is both these guys are ADHD and/or on the spectrum, have a doctor's script for vyvanse, adderall, modafinil, and/or whatever else, and have figured out how to ride the tolerance curve properly to maximize productivity.

I gave my example. Admin of a small public geo-local group chat. I don't think the proper answer in this context is to say use common sense and stay out of certain groups. The context is Telegram links commonly being spam and scams. Personally, I have no problem with spam/scams either. But why does Telegram not have more built-in anti-spam stuff. I'm a developer and didn't see any immediate anti-spam features in group chats.

I agree. Telegram is light years ahead of every normal chat, messaging app. Discord is a different sort of app. Oh and yeah, I get direct spam messages on Whatsapp more than Telegram. I barely use Whatsapp.
That’s a really clever solution to an annoying problem. Before music streaming, I would sometimes order 10+ CDs on Amazon and import them all (without knowing if I liked them, just on a hunch).

The “proper malware analysis” had me cracking up. I really hope they didn’t pay any significant amount of money for that.
> When devices support our mobility, why do we feel such a powerful pull to sit on couches looking at phones?

Because we always wanted to sit on the couch. Before it was to watch TV. Phones made moving around more possible, but we never wanted to do that in the first place.

Walking barely counts as being active. It takes almost no effort and 99.999% of the time does not increase heart rate which is the important part of exercise.

If walking is considered being active, we have vastly lowered the bar.

I know literal 70 year old people who could out-run 20 year old kids because they made the choice to stay active and healthy in old age
>Autorun USB malware is very common

that hasn't worked since windows xp sp2.
> Then a tool is introduced that brings it all together.

I totally agree there and I think it's due to the fact that you've got a mental model of the problem space and your brain can see the empty hole. Once you have a tool of that shape, your brain knows where it goes and how it solves your problem.
Haha these big techs shenanigans always intrigues me. First facebook tried to whitewash their tarnished reputation using buzz word "Meta". And now Google is trying to rename FLoC with topics. It would be so weird to say "Topic" is violating the privacy.

How would increasing physical activity not reduce obesity? If I’m understanding that link correctly it is saying “fitness” and weight are two different measures so obese people can be fit. I doubt many Americans fall into this category.
> And how is ARM China going to continue innovating? On their own?

Why not?

When I was young, the common wisdom was that Japan couldn't innovate, and once I saw an old bit of early 20th century analysis that said Germany couldn't either.

Both of those were wrong, why is China so different that it would be otherwise?
