Ah, I had forgotten `override` is easy. Rereading that page I still don't get the difference between `overrideAttrs` and `overrideDerivation`. `overrideAttrs` is newer and preferred, yet it doesn't spell out where you cannot use it and have to fall back to `overrideDeriviation`. And looking through my Nix code I've got various uses of `overrideDerivation`, which most likely means I tried `overrideAttrs` only to have it not work, so I tried the "deprecated" version and it did.

Thanks for the tip. We believe it's still the data engineers who will have to write these reverse connectors as well. We understand that python is probably the preferred choice of language for them. We have also seen that a majority of them understand java as well. But we are willing to support multi-language functionality in future, if the community demands it. Do you think majority of the data engineers do not understand Java?

> 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.

I think it goes the other way round. Carrying excess fat has been normalized so most people don't notice they are overweight. Unless you are lean enough to have some clear abdominal definition I wouldn't be so quick to attribute overweight BMI to excess muscle.

Clearly one sided, racist, and deeply politically one-sided too. Don't need schools to take sides on politics or religion.

> Constant articles and such with very little data. Very frustrating as a reader.

Actual resignations are up slightly, but the idea that employees are quitting in droves is exaggerated. It’s higher than normal turnover, but the stories are written in ways to suggest that companies everywhere are gutted by employees leaving in bulk. I feel like “great resignation” was deliberately chosen to mislead people into thinking people are just walking out of their jobs, which conjures images of a minor revolution.

Of course, that doesn’t make sense because the employees are being hired at other companies. It’s likely that the worst of the worst companies are seeing a significant net loss of employees, but for most it just means turnover is up a tick.

The problem is compounded because the “great resignation” is a narrative that people really, really want to believe. Every time I brought up the actual data on HN, it’s met with anecdotes about somebody whose friend of friend’s company lost all of their employees or something. These anecdotes seem to be the fuel keeping the narrative going far beyond what the data supports.
I think too its a result of 30 years where employers have had the upper hand in the job market (except perhaps 1999, 2008). Wages have stagnated during these decades, it seems finally maybe wages can catch up.
You're forgetting the core - Chromium - is open-source.
Unless they have like a country-wide e-mail address or some kind of HN-exclusive PA system, I don't think this figure of speech really means much other than a childish retort that does not really further dialogue.

The validity of treaties signed under duress on the other hand I think really deserves some questioning.

Understanding whether the purpose was good implies understanding the purpose. Even with very bad code you can at least see what the author was going for. Most code I've seen and felt was bad could be described as "Author needed to do X but wasn't aware of Y." I can't remember a time where I had to deal with code where I couldn't figure out what X was.

When traveling though Europe you can really notice what a healthy society looks like.

America's obesity rate has exploded in the last 20 years. I was lucky enough to have a chiropractor tell me if I didn't lose weight my life would suck.

It's a social taboo for doctors to just outright say you're going to have a large array of medical issues unless you get to a healthy weight. You have the Huffington Post which runs a new "You can be morbidly obese and just fine" article once a month.

As someone who used to be morbidly obese, it was a living hell. I was diabetic had no luck finding a partner and was in constant pain. Did the keto diet, lost about 70 lb, got rid of my diabetes, and finally met somebody nice in real life .

Diabetes doesn't care about your feelings. I lean left , but theirs an insane amount of victimization on the left.

You can buy a salad at any fast food restaurant, meaning you have access to healthy food even in a "food desert".

It just takes an insane amount of self control. It's much easier to call everyone else a fat shammer. Doesn't help with your chronic pain or health issues though
>> Self-deprecation used to be a social norm.

Seems like more of a British thing. They're also IMHO more willing to take an honest ribbing over screw-ups without getting all pissy. They take it and dish it out.
BMI is not useful as an individual metric, but as a population-wide average.

I don't think anyone would argue that you should lose weight because your BMI is high, nor does anyone believe that the obesity epidemic in America is due to vast swaths of the population suddenly becoming powerlifters.

This is honestly my gripe with r/antiwork. It could be (and sometimes is) a hub for a mature conversation towards unionizing and regaining meaningful industry in the US, but it choses to be the place for edgy workers from all ages to declare themselves "marxists". As if they thrived on the ever-diminishing amount of gasps that word incites. Like a bunch of teenagers trying to out-edge everyone else. Hard to read.
> What was the intended mission?

There were several. A couple of examples: the shuttle could delay release of a payload, maneuver while in orbit, release the payload, then maneuver again. So conceptually, you just put a satellite into an orbit and your enemy doesn't know exactly what orbit its in. I'm sure eventually they would find it, but the military still wants stuff like that.

Another example is the ability to grab a satellite and bring it back to Earth. To my knowledge, this was only ever used with the "long-duration exposure facility" because it'd probably be considered an act of war to steal another country's satellites but here again, it's the kind of thing the military would ask for.
Having an imperfect method of measuring body fat is often used as a crutch to avoid accountability.

Yeah I've thought about this in the past in the context of software development "sane defaults"...here in NYC just going about normal daily activities easily results in 3+ miles of walking per day. The "default" lifestyle involves walking to transit, walking to shops etc. Plenty of people use cars, but in very many situations it's more cumbersome than walking/transit.

Whenever I visit family in the midwest it can be a bit of a culture shock: by default you might find yourself walking a few hundred feet per day. With garages built into every house, few sidewalks and office parks/shopping centers that are only accessible by car, you have to make an explicit effort to get any exercise.

The issue with viewing programming concepts as purely abstract is that the abstractions have varying degree of leakiness. Even with the most mathematically pure languages like Haskell you run into implementation details space leaks which you have to understand to build reliable systems.

There’s certainly something to be said for abstract understanding, but one thing I’ve learned in software and in business is that details matter, often in surprising ways.
I agree with the sentiment of this paper (AF can enable drug discovery), but in this specific instance, the authors had a real opportunity contribute a general finding to the scientific community but instead they put in the lowest amount of effort (to a point where they're almost saying nothing at all).

The target had dozens of related structures in the protein databank, including relatives with ~40% sequence identity. This target family has a very similar structure, and conserved active site residues. It's relevant that this target has approved cross-CDK family inhibitors (and thousands of data points of CDK family binders on ChEMBL). The conventional way to enable structure-based design is to build a homology model using a similar structure (see here: https://swissmodel.expasy.org/repository/uniprot/Q8IZL9?temp...), and in this case, there is very low deviation from the AF2 model and this "old fashioned" approach.

To recap, this target had a decent model that would have likely sufficed for drug discovery. The community already knows that "homology models" can be used for structure-based drug design, so any methodological hypotheses of this paper are not supported by evidence.
Interesting anecdote. I feel like this is probably the area of boardgame that has progressed the least. In some sense the YouTube channels that do full rule explanations is a way of remedying this, sure, but that also feels quite.. odd to break out the iPad during a social gathering.
> The Great Renegotiation is also a byproduct of inflation. Workers are seeking better pay to keep up with the rising cost of living.

Keeping in mind small business is collectively the largest employer and contributor to US output... let's remember the coming rate hikes will greatly reduce available cash to small businesses that operate with credit lines, credit card debt or via home equity lines. That is a LOT of US businesses. Now add to this increased input costs due to inflation. Now add increased tax rates. You can also expect lending requirements will tighten.

So, it's worth considering the odds of worker prosperity (vs) the odds of a wave of business failures and associated unemployment/underemployment in many (but by no means all) sectors.

Personally, I think the Fed & Treasury will continue fiscal stimulus and capitulate hard in the face of a deep recession. More of the same can kicking, and we'll see what seems like prosperity. In reality, it's a delay of an inevitable downturn unless some magical productivity innovation or goods/services advance emerges to rescue the US economy.

I have three contracts that drive the bulk of my revenue right now. I have a few different titles, but for simplicity, let's say Sr DevOps.

Conflicting deadlines come in? I'll try and take the hit (work extra hours), but the priority? The highest payer with the least micro managerial leadership.

You pay me for my experience, or you pay me to attend your meeting while someone else pays me for my experience to actually do something. It's ok, I'll wait, I charge by the hour either way, and if your meeting is useless enough, I can charge you both!
There’s a couple of important things to note here.

First, the new Permissions-Policy: browsing-topics=() (or the old FLoC Permissions-Policy: interest-cohort=()) will ban this functionality, which is nice if you don’t want to leak your user’s data to Google for advertising purposes.

Secondly, the initial list of topics can be found at https://github.com/jkarlin/topics/blob/main/taxonomy_v1.md . “/Finance/Grants, Scholarships & Financial Aid” is interestingly scary as a target group. They’re also weirdly American (“/Finance/Insurance/Health Insurance”, putting reggae under “World Music”, etc.)

> Alpine is not Gnu/Linux too, but BusyBox/musl/Linux, maybe it makes others sad that you don't know the difference.

I'm more concerned with the practical significance of calling Android or ChromeOS a Linux distribution than being pedantic for the history books.

Sure, Alpine doesn't use the usual userland you'll find on most Linux distributions but it isn't an alien experience and you can use it mostly like any other Linux distribution out there. You'll still find a POSIX shell and a package manager to install packages. There's Xorg or Wayland for the GUI and you'll find familiar desktop environments and window managers.

Unlike Android, you won't find absence of root access on Alpine. There's no restriction on placement of data on directories like /usr and /var. You won't find dozens of UIDs for different processes running at the same time on a single user system. You can't just slap Android on any hardware x86_64 hardware you want and expect it to work fine. Hell, you can't even do that on ARM devices if you're not using out-of-tree patches and firmware blobs. The bluetooth and audio stack on Android is completely different than what you'll use on any Linux distribution.

So yeah, if we're being pedantic, sure, Android is a Linux distribution because it uses the Linux kernel. Good luck using it like a typical Linux distribution though.

> For years exactly that was written on Apples own macOSX page, but you know it better right?

What I wrote above. Sure, pages written decades ago indicate that the Apple used FreeBSD as its base for its kernel but I doubt their kernel is anything close to upstream FreeBSD at this point. The same goes for their userland and graphics stack. Would you call OrbisOS, used by PS4, a distribution of FreeBSD? Can you do anything meaningful with it like you can with FreeBSD?

I think the MIT study painted an interesting picture (https://sloanreview.mit.edu/article/toxic-culture-is-driving...).

It has the issues of small sample size and cherry-picking (i.e. the researchers tranched companies by industry and had a model of "toxic culture" that could be disagreed with if one cared to make the case), but the overall turn-head-and-squint takeaway is the pandemic forced a lot of workers to ask the question "Am I willing to risk death for the assholes I work with?" and for a lot of employees, the answer was "no." Places where the answer was not "no" had higher retention (both across industries and within industries).

What they do after that is an open question... Some choose another company, some choose another non-career avenue if it is available to them. But the point is the pandemic forced a perspective shift that hadn't happened before.

> I'm inclined to agree that some folks who stayed home (by choice or not) found that ... it wasn't that bad and doing so to find something else probably seems easier than it was before.

There's this, but let's not forget that the S&P 500 is up about 40% relative to its pre-pandemic peak, so retirement accounts have been growing really fast. Staying home suddenly became an option for many.

There were already concerns about boomer retirements. Add a pandemic most dangerous to older people, lack of concern for worker safety, and massive increases in retirement accounts, and you have a lot of people that can and do stay home.
Not all cardio is built the same and walking/running (for many) is not the most efficient way to burn calories.

Most "calories burned" are also an estimate, often based on heart-rate and other body parameters. I burn anywhere from 500-800+ calories per hour when cycling (depending on intensity, based on actual recorded power). I'm fairly light (63-64kgs) so my power (and as a result energy expenditure) will be less than that of someone larger. An endurance run for me will burn much closer to an estimated 300kCal/hr. While I'm no longer a runner, even at peak I would run only 4-5hrs/week (and usually no more than 1:30-1:45hrs/run). I readily cycle 4-5 hours though and burn 3000kCal+. So if goal is to burn as many calories as possible, I would consider cycling and swimming, since both burn a considerable amount and can be done for longer stretches of time without major body impact.

The unfortunate drawback of cycling is the lack of impact that makes it easy to cycle for long amounts. Have to balance that with other forms of exercise to stay healthy.

AI upscaling? Yes. Seems like some fans used AI upscaling for the older Star Gate SG-1 seasons, since these were direct-to-VHS and hence shot on low quality media (by now there are official bluray releases which are also somehow upscaled, but I was told those would be of inferior quality compared to the fan effort). Not sure if those efforts worked on a frame-by-frame basis or used information across frames.

I don't think I would've thought a mile as a "long run", but until age 30 it was further than I'd ever run without having to stop to rest. If you don't run regularly, running for any length of time is hard, even if you're in good shape. (I was biking ~70 miles a week when I first started running, but unless you're really pushing, that doesn't work your heart of lungs anywhere near as hard.)
