Nintendo Switch Cartridges Taste Terrible

Proof to whoever the stakeholders are, presumably the customers in your model.

Proof that it satisfies what the customer needs or wants - something which can't be demonstrated until the would-be solution reaches some level of demonstrable maturity.

For many engineering solutions, you can talk about them earlier, handwave, present, but nothing conveys that it actually works, or sometimes even makes sense, short of a working demonstration.

Why so quick to assume it's a "pet" project? If the developer is doing it right, they are making exactly what the customer needs, but the customer does not have the developer's expertise to recognise what will work at an early stage.

We are not talking about things everyone understands and could have an opinion on, like say the colour and layout of the login window.

Take something that requires deeper work and hired expertise. For example suppose you've started to design a new kind of GPU technique that will double the customer's calculation throughput for the same power consumption. They hired you for your expertise to solve that sort of problem. They have no idea how it works though, and for the first month you have only an outline of a new algorithm, that only peers at your own level could understand well - and you don't have any peers in that area. And most of figuring out the details is on paper and whiteboards, math and logic along with throwaway experiments to measure. The first line of code in a working demo is not possible to figure out until 3 weeks in, and it takes only 1 day of coding and 2 days of polish after that to finish.

That sort of thing isn't a pet project. It might not even be fun; it might be quite stressful, after all it's a higher risk to the developer to pursue such paths. It doesn't fit into daily PRs and isn't even a coding problem at first. Yet it's exactly what the customer needs, what they said they hired you to accomplish, and what they will appreciate if it has reached the point of "proof" when shown.

It will be incorrectly assumed to be the developer's pet project if it's demonstrated before it works, though. Thus the reason to build it up to "proof" level, if you're sure the customer needs it.
I use it with HomeAssistant. I like HA automations for many things, but I really prefer NodeRed for gluing together systems or sketching things.
I hate to be the naysayer in the thread, the paper is well written but the headline is super misleading. AI that tunes AI. It's a search algorithm.
GraphQL is a lot more limited because it was never really intended to be used as a full-blown database query language. While EdgeDB supports GraphQL as a way to do queries, this support is currently experimental and is not intended to be used as an alternative for EdgeQL. Our position is that GraphQL should be used as originally intended: as an introspectable and more flexible replacement for REST APIs. There is work in progress to add a declarative way to define explicit API schemas as controlled mappings of EdgeDB schemas, (e.g. implementing GraphQL "resolvers" as EdgeQL functions or expression aliases, adding access control, etc). This would address the issues with the direct "Database-as-GraphQL" approach: 1) your API is not a direct reflection of your internal database schema, and 2) there is granular control over what and how things can be queried, which is important for performance and security.

I really don't understand why they think that would be a suitable defense anyway? "It is too expensive for us to figure out if we're breaking the law, sorry."
With GPG you typically use assymetric cryptography, so you would be using the public key of the recipient, so you don't need the yubikey for that. However, the yubikey can be used when decrypting the message later.
Who exactly gets to decide who deserves a soapbox? You and the wolk folk?

You realise the list of "health professionals" trying to get Rogan taken down includes non doctor podcasters and dentists right?
There's a direct relationship between other people making similar wages to you, and your inability to get someone to do a good job on anything at a price you can afford.

If the cost of living hadn't "increased", then the middle class would still be tiny, and we wouldn't be in it. The whole thing would be moot.

Great computing joke, love it.
I implemented a slightly different method for my prototype multimedia chat application (text/images/audio/video) over IPFS. I used an envelope format for permissioned encrypted content:

{
perms: 'ipns name of permission list'
payload: [encrypted payload]
}

This ensured that the content hash of the envelope remains the same even when peers are added/removed from the perms list. The permission list had entries of the form:

{
salt: [a random salt],
peer_pubkey_hash: [salted hash of the public key of the permitted peer],
wrapped_enc_key: [payload private key that is encrypted using the peer's private key]
}

The content hash shared is that of the encrypted envelope and a permitted peer will get the perm list, lookup its entry using the peer_pubkey_hash and unwrap the wrapped_enc_key to obtain the encryption key that is used to decrypt the payload.

I am oversimplifying, but that was the general idea.
Two things.

The person walks away after this $600 poorer. We've found ways to do things of arguably far less social value then say, a new medical discovery, such as stand up comedy or say a club dj without them having to fork over $600 to do what they're being advertised for.

In fact, they actually get paid.

Second, the enterprise for expanding human knowledge shouldn't come with a door fee, full stop. If we want to progress the sciences we should find out how to collectively pay for it without charging amounts to all involved that they cannot afford.

If we want, say, 1,000 Einsteins as Jeff Bezos believe we should be aiming for, we should try funding the process and not sticker shock it at every step.

Stagnation is always a structural problem. This is so fixable if we actually exercise the will to do it
InnoDB (the most common storage engine in MySQL) uses a clustered index. In other words, the "primary key index" IS the table. Also a COUNT(*) query has to account for MVCC, ensuring that the count represents an accurate total for a specific isolated snapshot.

So this is basically still true today, although MySQL 8 has started to add parallelized reads to improve performance for this situation.
You said they're "very high" locally, which doesn't appear to be the case. "Slightly above GDP per capita" just isn't very high. If everyone in one country makes 40k EUR except for one dude who makes 40,001 EUR, he has the highest income in the country, but his income still isn't very high at all.

Of course, part of this may be that the wage spectrum as a whole is compressed compared to the US, but that's an explanation, not a contradiction.
Note: Are we sure this is a mandatory charge or just the charge if the authors must publish an immediate open access article. I just published in Nature Metabolism and there was no charge at all. The quality of the review and editing was EXTRAORDINARY! I wanted to thank all of the reviewers for doing a superb job.

Had I required immediate open access then it would have cost!

But with both full versions in bioRxiv and Pubmed Central, I felt access was essentially complete.
I disagree with the recommended key generation flow in this guide. I think the private key should be generated on-device, so it can never be extracted without faulting the YubiKey hardware.

I also disagree with the idea of backing up the private key. Generating secure passwords is hard and it is infeasible to ask people to use diceware to generate and store their secure backup. And if you aren't doing backups you might as well generate the key on device. For the purpose of revocation, you can keep a signed revocation certificate around in the event you lose your key.

This makes the guide much simpler, as you don't have to spin up a live airgapped system with secure boot for each employee's key generation. There's no need to have a complicated backup flow either.

YubiKeys in general are problematic as they don't have a display that can show the action being taken, e.g. a compromised host could display one thing while the user is signing/encrypting another. This isn't a problem in modern crypto hardware wallets, which have displays that show precisely what is being signed, to mitigate this exact threat model.
The real lesson here is not that the CCP is awful. We know that.

It's that, a movie like Fight Club could never be made today in the US.

One reason is because the Supreme Court held in late 2020 that unless you can prove you were actually--not theoretically--harmed by an exact instance of an entity covered under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, you do not have standing to sue.

> Held: Only a plaintiff concretely harmed by a defendant’s violation of the Fair Credit Reporting Act has Article III standing to seek damages against that private defendant in federal court.

Per the Court, this means something like you were provably denied credit on the basis of the incorrect reporting, and you either didn't have an opportunity to explain yourself or your explanation was not accepted in favor of the information from the credit reporting agency's information. This is a very, very high bar to clear and is made even more difficult by the fact that almost any agreement of substance includes a mandatory binding arbitration clause. Thus, you don't even get the chance to go to court.

(Many businesses lauded here on Hacker News have such clauses, so even the "good" entrepreneurs can't resist taking away rights to the courthouse from their users.)

The percent of chronic homeless in the drug/substance abuse bucket is pretty high, but it’s like comparing the people visible on the streets (chronic) vs someone who ran out of money is and is crashing on a couch or living in their car.

The problem is treating both kinds of homeless equally: they have completely different problems with completely different solutions. Give the chronic homeless just housing and they’ll more than likely just trash it or figure out how to support their habit with it, the latter will use the housing in the way it was intended as help.

We should throw as much help as possible to those who aren’t in the drug and substance abuse bucket simply because it is very difficult to help them effectively once they move into that bucket.
The £200 of passive income presumably came from a stock of wealth. And the passive income by itself was still 6 times the salary of the live-in maid. The stock of wealth should therefore have been valued similarly to six healthy female slaves. (Give or take some adjustments, but broadly similar.)

Yes, maybe others are also speaking out, as they should. Most yapping about antivax aren't doctors anyway, to match your comparison.

Edit - can't reply, so here: Who decides? The people paying for the soapbox. If spotify wants to support it, no one is stopping them, but their customers sure are going to speak out, and take their money elsewhere. Welcome to America.
> They used to do a lot for a store and had to know all the products. Now a clerk is just a last mile button presser. They don’t add much value at all. They’re not doing 4x the work. They’re doing 0.1x the work. Trying to say “but the value couldn’t be captured without that guy” is wishful thinking.

Not to detract from your overall point, which is absolutely correct, but having been a grocery clerk there's a slightly different phenomenon in play there. Having a clerk who knows the products well is a big help, but you really only need one available at a time. So rather than make acquiring that knowledge an actual part of the job, they rely on scale to have enough workers who learn it through their own initiative.
So if I understand you correctly, a guy with a weekly newsletter covering the local political beat who charges a $10/month subscription fee and uses it entirely to pay his own salary is doing so for the purpose of delivering value to the capitalist class.

Is he the capitalist class, this person making say $40,000/year? Are his customers meant to be? Do they become the capitalist class when there are two of them writing the newsletter and they split the money?
> Never use SELECT * within the context of an application, as column additions or removals can break the app.

To help with this problem, several databases now support a notion of "invisible columns", including Oracle, MySQL, and MariaDB. Invisible columns are excluded from SELECT *, but otherwise function like normal columns and can be queried explicitly by name.

Sorry but if you keep falling back to the terminal to do things I would say you're not really using a desktop. What's the purpose of pointing this out? Yes, you can do whatever you want in Linux by opening the terminal and typing sudo. I understand the propensity of developers to like this because we spend all day in our xterm windows anyway but this is not the way anyone else expects a desktop to work.

Just to follow this discussion a bit further: If you have a task that /really/ needs elevated privileges you could turn it into a kernel module. That's great for you if you want to do that, but will you tell everyone else to develop kernel modules for every little thing? I don't think I would. I'm happy to give the muggles a better interface.

There’s no way of winning with those like you. You just like the drama of the pandemic too much and want it to stay forever. Even if it killed 1 person a year globally, those like you would probably argue that “even one life is infinitely precious and we should be on lockdown to save it”. Perhaps you feel this is your opportunity of a lifetime to be righteous. Honestly, I am so fed up with so many of you around that I have been hoping for a global nuclear Armageddon between Russia and the USA just to shut all of you up. Don’t forget to wear your mask when you look at the strange bright light in the sky.
> this must be weighed against the statistical value of life

Must it be? There are a great many regulations concerning safety devices and procedures that government and industry shell out for which cost more to industry than the statistical value of lives saved. Safety compliance is an added cost to virtually every aspect of commerce. You seem to suggest that any cost of compliance beyond the actuarial value of lives taken by noncompliance is unwarranted. But in this case we're going much further, since the addition of methanol is not merely a lax safety regulation but an added cost to manufacturing which serves no purpose other than to make the product less safe.

Consider safety caps on pill bottles, or seat belts in cars. Both those things had to be forced upon manufacturers, because the cost to manufacturers of fighting civil litigation - which we can assume both operates upon and inflates your $8M figure - didn't provide sufficient economic downside to spur costly implementation. Their existences are both examples of life being valued by society as more than its actuarial value, or value provable in court.

If, as a libertarian would, you argued that companies should never pay for any safety regulations beyond the dollar value of the internal and (maybe) external costs inflicted on the public by their products, implying that the value of human life should be reduced to a dollar figure, even then it would make no sense to pay more just to make a product more dangerous.

I feel like you mean your statement to be objectionable. And I feel like we're getting to the root of why your statements in this thread have generated such a bad feeling; your disdain for life is coming out. We could get into a discussion of the actual value of human life versus its average value in economic output - including the externalized costs manifested in social disorder and rebellion when life is snuffed out by neglect or malpractice. But again, this is why I think the motive for adding poison to products is suspect, and can't be attributed only to economic motives. It implies a hatred of humanity. Indeed, the value proposition for many governments to add methanol to industrial alcohol isn't based at all on actuarial tables, but on "moral" judgments. In Iran, the lacing of all industrial alcohol with methanol is part and parcel of the religious ban on personal consumption of ethanol, and it led to more deaths during the pandemic than the virus itself. So perhaps there, it could be justified economically by saying that the life of someone who indulges in drink is worth a negative actuarial value; but this is economics shaded by fanatical belief, and must not be taken as a proxy for the true value of life.

That's not a moral judgment: that's a judgment about whether you're likely to not wreck the new organ and have a good outcome.
Truthfully I'm not looking forward to it.
You didn't answer my question.

You don't think there are any stressors related to being king? People constantly wanted to take your power, it isn't like the subjects are bound to serve, there are no contracts or laws or anything ensuring people do what you want, your only way to control things is to convince others do what you want. If you aren't careful you'd get poisoned, or hanged or ran out of the country from a coup or rebellion. Not to mention that everyone's children died in droves back then, even kings, having your kids die on you is stressful.
ok, but it even says they had a passive income (aka wealth) leading to 1/3 of that 25x maid's earnings.

Many factual points in the introduction, with the modest apartment, income in today's value, and her own regard of wealth frame it as if she's relatable middle-class.

For anyone with a monolith considering microservices, that 25% of total is 33% more work than the monolith.

But if 33% more work isn't enough, we can things in languages with undefined behaviour like Javascript, and also use lots of different languages in the services so out support gets more complex!

Jokes aside, the saving grace is t25% sounds like empirical observation so it probably an all up figure so probably includes the large amounts of bikeshedding that often accompanies a microservices implementation.

YouTube CEO Defends Hiding Dislike Count, Says It Reduced Harassment
This reminds me of a survey that was done in Seattle about of homeless were from out of the county or not, and the data collected found most of them squad they were housed in pioneer square before becoming homeless. Anyone who knows Seattle would find that very fishy (it would be like most homeless in LA saying they were housed in skid row).

Surveys in the homeless community are extremely unreliable, but I guess that makes sense (better to claim you started drugs after being homeless than admit you did them before, more sympathy that way). Even outside of the homeless context, self reported surveys aren’t considered reliable (see https://www.verywellmind.com/definition-of-self-report-42526...).

> "Slightly above GDP per capita" just isn't very high.

Yes, it is in any capitalist economy, because income distribution isn't normal. In the US, for instance, per capita GDP is about $64k, but median personal income is a little over $35k, and median pay of a full-time worker income, annualized, is just under $45k. An individual worker making just over the per capita GDP is doing quite well.
