Wow. Just... wow.

Seriously laughing out loud. No, it doesn't have much useful content, but I recommend that you take the time to read it anyway.
I don't understand how any Spotify user doesn't know they have content other than music, because you have to scroll pretty damn far down to get to anything music related. That's not even getting into the damn popups their app has trying to get you to listen to podcasts.

Like others here, I wish I could unsubscribe to podcasts. I hate how spotify pushes them in your face constantly.
So the real impact of the nft craze was basically to give 4 billion dollars to a neo Nazi group? We live in the stupidest of all possible worlds.

Yes, and it's worth bearing in mind that Chernobyl was far from the worst case scenario. We were very lucky that Chernobyl was located in an isolated area and that the wind didn't blow the radioactive material towards Kyiv or another densely populated area. A Chernobyl-like event that ended up making a major city uninhabitable would be a crisis on another level.
Since Argentina started having its own currency, it had to reset it 5 times, dropping a total of 13 zeroes. I have memories of two of those resets and, similar to what you say about your grandma, I remember older people translating to the older currency for a while, until they fully adapted to the new one.

It probably still does. I was on the gTape SRE team until 2014 and we had lots and lots of tapes and tape libraries back then, most of them giant beasts with 8 robots each. With the capacity of new LTO generations constantly growing and the existing investment in hardware and software it would be unusual to discard that.
Then why even make point 2 at all?
> I mix in society, wear masks everywhere, and have yet to contract coronavirus.

Or you did and were asymptomatic. Something on the order of 70% of cases are largely asymptomatic IIRC. Unless you're claiming you got a PCR test every 21 days since the beginning of the pandemic?
I've asked my friends working in medicine the same thing. What if hospitals were to start turning away those who are willingly unvaccinated? I haven't been able to get a clear answer but the basic theme I hear is you can't, state law prohibits that. Of course the law can be changed, but what legislature is going to do that? This is where politics enters the fray. They'd rather kick the can down the road and bring in the National Guard to help run the hospitals than turn away patients and potentially face voter wrath.
No one, obviously. Its an open question in the project how to e.g. communicate to a future civilization that the area is dangerous.
That's true, but how "quickly" depends on the kind of honey. Acacia honey and other honeys with high amounts of fructose and low amounts of glucose can take decades to crystallize, normal forest honey or dandelion honey can crystallize in under a day.

Entertainment sells. Putting a “well actually” after each statement by the subject would reduce the entertainment value. This article is a narrative of the subject’s life told from various perspectives. The stories conflict, and as readers we can decide where the truth lies.
The name needs to change but also the attitude that as engineers, we build complex systems and assume everyone has the knowledge how to use it. A few world wide outages I've been a part of was caused by a task runner which didn't lint the command and allowed a broken bash one-liner to be executed across every system in parallel.

Yes, it's a simple mistake but how was a system allowed access to our global environment that this edge case was never calculated? In many of the meetings, the common issue is communication even between co-workers on the same team, and between internal platform providers. One case was an outage on the storage backend and realized after a long meeting that the internal SLA was much greater than we expected (and which the systems would timeout). It only worked for so long as storage utilization was extremely low.
The Atlantic has lots of writers (on staff as well as guest writers) who have different positions. They do seem to be running a lot more "I'm done with this" articles lately.
> N95s work via an electric polarity of the filter

...as well as mechanical filtration[1].

> To minimize the effect of electrostatic attraction, we used isopropanol (IPA) to remove nearly all dipole charges in the filter layer (Figure Figure77C) and measured the filtration efficiency. The filtration efficiencies of N95 respirators after IPA treatment decreased about 7–15% after removing all dipole charges. Such decreases in filtration efficiencies indicated that electrostatic charges contributed to the filtration performance.

Others here have pointed to studies RE the efficacy of cloth masks. Which, while not great, is not 0 either. I'm willing to be wrong, but do you have any research showing that "Cloth masks do nothing"?

Is this practical? I would imagine with how peering can get better/worse in an instant (and continuously change as different routers pick up new routes) you can't use ping to measure this, and geoip databases don't seem like a source you could trust, especially with CGNAT throwing you onto some generic IP with a geoIP that everyone else in a 200 mile radius also gets.

That might be your personal definition of activism but it isn’t any accepted one.

Think about the anti-apartheid boycott movement against South Africa. Effectively they said “you can have Apartheid or you can have us buy your products”. Was that bullying? Was that exploiting a position? In what world was it not activism?

(as a side note the idea that an artist the likes of Neil Young even has the capability of bullying an company like Spotify is kind of funny in and of itself. The power dynamic between the two skews very, very heavily towards Spotify)

> It wasn't "I'll leave because I disagree with people on this platform"

?!? That’s exactly what it was. According to the source you just posted that’s exactly what he did. He asked for his music to be removed, he did not issue an ultimatum. You’re quoting a rhetorical flourish he made and ignoring his actions.
Not 100% sure but can't you setup rules for that stuff in s3 itself? Like delete everything older than x date but never delete current version?

I have a feeling I set something like this up but it's been a while since I did it.
I kind of agree and would like to try selfhosting stuff for myself, but in the future where should the self hosting lie? Not everyone can self host (your mother, cousin, etc, people with disabilities, etc) So if it is the future, would level of society would host it reliably? Family, government, etc. Everything seems problematic either in terms of practicality and security.
It is the facebook page for my blog, https://metalised.wordpress.com which largely exists for the end-of-year best metal album reviews these days.

These reviews get cross-posted on the facebook page, and tend to be very popular, both by fans and featured bands alike.

> They're still aircraft after all, at the very least you're going to need pilots license.

The FAA is amenable to allowing people to operate small personal for non-commercial purposes without a license. If you do not take passengers and do not operate it in time, place, and manner that creates a hazard for others, there's a very real "if you kill your own damn self that's your problem" regulatory mentality.

What you actually need a license for is to exceed speed/weight/fuel limitations designed to ensure these conditions. If you're going for a part 103 ultralight craft, that's 55 knots / 254 pounds / 5 gallons of fuel. Might be hard to design a usable jetpack under these constraints.
the point of wordle is to be simple, fun, and social so I don't think there's anything further to be learned here.

The problem with comments like this and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30088471 is that they poison the ecosystem with more of the very thing you're complaining about, plus they lower the signal/noise ratio with tedious meta.

Consider us one. :)

We tried removing "async" -- thinking it would force sequential processing -- but it unexpectedly seemed to cause parallel processing of requests, which caused CUDA memory errors.

Before removing "async", this is the weird behavior we observed:

* Hacker blasts 50-100 requests.

* Our ML model processes each request in normal time and sequentially.

* But instead of returning individual responses immediately, the server holds onto all responses -- sending responses only when the last request finishes (or a bunch of requests finish).

* Normally, request 1 should return in N seconds, request 2 in 2N seconds, but with this, all requests returned in about N50 seconds (assuming batch size of 50).

1. Any suggestions on this?

2. Mind clarifying how sync vs aync works? The FastAPI docs are unclear.

Any help would be much appreciated.

This has been extremely frustrating.

It's pretty funny that reversing the American flag yields Soviet Union(SU).
The objections seem like quibbling. So, maybe there was also a longish drought 4500 years ago, at least in some places? Fine. And, maybe drought started in some places 100 years before the society there collapsed? Fine. So, maybe the 300-year drought wasn't uniformly global? Fine. Egypt didn't entirely collapse? Fine.

It just seems really strange to say highly-stratified societies dependent on agricultural surplus cannot be assumed to have been affected by loss of such surplus. The notion of such a society switching over to meat seems even stranger: where would fodder for the livestock come from, in a place where nothing is growing? Objecting that not everybody in these collapsed empires died is weirder still; surely if most people need to leave to be able to continue eating, that would make it a cause of their empire vanishing? Are they supposed to re-constitute it wholesale somewhere else? Has that ever happened? Wouldn't we see an empire in a new place as a new empire?
Another 4chan hoax.

https://np.reddit.com/r/4chan/comments/rwpli5/anon_has_an_id...

See also the OK hand symbol hoax:

The “OK” hand gesture originated as one of these hoaxes in February 2017 when an anonymous 4channer announced “Operation O-KKK,” telling other members that “we must flood Twitter and other social media websites…claiming that the OK hand sign is a symbol of white supremacy.” The user even provided a helpful graphic showing how the letters WP (for “white power”) could be traced within an “OK” gesture. The originator and others also suggested useful hashtags to help spread the hoax, such as #PowerHandPrivilege and #NotOkay.

Indeed, most pyramids are less than 5k years old. A 100k years means making the step from the first Egyptian dynasty to today 20 times. That’s an incredible timespan. I don’t think we can design rules and agreements around this type of storage and expect them to last that long. Statistically it’s unlikely the country you are living in still exists in just 10k years, let alone in a 100k years.
Has it been treated in any way? I've been working with bees for over 20 years now, and I haven't seen honey keep the viscosity for more than a couple of weeks past harvesting, at room temperature. The duration varies based on the blossoms of course, with some such as rape going solid in 10 days while clover can last 4-6 weeks, but in the end, it always crystalizes.
Is this better or worse than Bitcoin? Not an an economist, or Bitcoin invester, just curious.
You probably have a point. Edited.

Moving on to my next example, though, there are people who aren't able to be pedestrians because they have mobility impairments. Are they less worthy of life, just because they're using a vehicle as an accessibility aid?
Which airports are allowed? I guessed only fairly large ones but I'm wondering if something more obscure is possible.
You can't debate the value of the term without considering the conditions that led to it. Why would someone call a postmortem "blameless"? Because (in some companies) there absolutely was a culture of blame, which made people less forthcoming and thoughtful about the causes of incidents, which limited the potential learnings. This term was not pulled out of thin air, or built upon some imaginary possible blame. It was designed to explicitly remove blame that was already present in the culture.

I think the failure mode that's more likely (although I am not an expert, I've had to take extensive nuclear safety training for biology, and more exponential decay calculations than I care to admit) is that the water table would rise or there is a large seismic event and a population would be exposed to moderate-level radioactive waste for an extended period of time (leading to higher rates of cancer and other diseases). However, there is not a lot of solid data on moderate-level radioactive waste with long exposures.

Sort of like the cross product of Fukushima reactor and Flint Michigan.

I agree with the point about nuclear waste often not being as bad as other chemical waste (or even storage/processing of nonwaste chemical materials). The issue is that in people minds, the term nuclear triggers an innate dread best described as "contamination of our precious bodily fluid".
>I think slowly the industry is moving away from no-leetcode, but it's going to take a generation or two of startups to really succeed at that, and most vital of all, it has to become a FB / Google level company that defines the industry for the next decade. The current millenial and gen z wave suffering under the leetcode regime and think it's bad need to become the next directors of companies and push for no leetcode in their interview processes. This is just starting to happen which why you see some companies like slack doing no-leetcode in their interview process.

Yes, and?

The hospital case load is overwhelmingly, screamingly, massively dominated by the elderly unvaccinated.

https://www.doh.wa.gov/Portals/1/Documents/1600/coronavirus/...

Given the extremely contagious nature of Omicron, what plausible way do we have to prevent these individuals from getting COVID and using hospital space? And don't say masking up kids—because if they haven't gotten vaccinated, then why do you think they themselves would wear masks and social distance to prevent themselves from getting COVID?

I have seen no plausible modeling that shows even high level of masking would significantly blunt the spread of this.

https://covid19.healthdata.org/united-states-of-america?view...

So why make the kids put on hair shirts I mean masks?

Oh, and by the way: I have plenty of sympathy towards health care workers. I am dating a nurse. I have doctors, nurses, and paramedics as friends. I have extreme empathy towards them, and full seething burning anger towards the unvaccinated septuagenarians ruining our health care system. And the rest of our economy while they're at it.
None of those countries are anywhere close to the inflation of Argentina. And the car story isn’t just about inflation but a global shortage on cars.
Olive oil is wildly adulterated with blended cheap oil.

Vitamins and "supplements" are almost completely unregulated, which is one reason despite known benefits from a limited number of supplements, I've hesitated to use any. There are third party services that test some products, but I gave up on them because many of the certifications were years old and you really have no fucking idea; the company could switch to cheaper manufacturing/suppliers right after getting "certified."

Vegetables have to be washed because food pickers aren't given proper bathroom facilities so they shit in the fields and have no way to wash their hands or clean themselves, so there's both soil and product contamination with feces. Could be fixed by the federal government mandating field-accessible bathrooms with hand-washing stations, which you think farmers could afford given the trillions of dollars in subsidies they get, but...nope.

Most fish sold in the US is wildly mislabeled - tilapia, which is cheapest, is the most common fish substituted. Particularly annoying since it often causes gastric distress for some. Only DNA testing is reliable.

Baby food contains a shocking amount of heavy metals.

Packaged chicken products (and I believe eggs?) are washed in bleach, because the poultry industry has managed to gaslight us and regulators into thinking that a)salmonela is just a fact of life with chickens and b)it's the consumer's fault for not properly "handling" said food (in Europe, for example, salmonella is actively controlled, and there's a vaccine.)

American cheese doesn't contain any actual cheese (though I think the FDA finally cracked down a bit on this one, so it's now called "cheese product" or something.)

Chinese baby formula manufacturers figured out that melamine faked out protein tests to allow them to water down the formula. In the US, melamine and cyanuric acid were found in every formula mix, though supposedly at ~1ppm levels, but no level of either chemical is safe, and there was no reason for either to be in formula.

There was huge outbreak of lead poisoning in mexican kids who were eating hard candies made from a fruit - tamarind, I think? - where growers supplying the candy company were getting paid by weight and the assholes were putting lead weights in their containers, and the lead weights were going through the fruit-crushing machines.

The list goes on. Libertarians talk about how the free market will solve everything, but time after time when business is trusted or allowed to regulate itself, it doesn't. Greed almost always wins over civic duty and ethics.
I used to work with team members in Argentina. They received in local currency, so they had salary raises every now and then. It sometimes didn't match inflation, though, and the moment the members started talking about missing eating premium meat or going to restaurants, I knew the company was running late to one of those raises.
Yes, it's wrong to be so selfish that you can't experience a minor inconvenience to mitigate the risk of causing another person's death or severe injury.
Time to sell the business and move to a better country.
Those cases are worth considering, socially. But generally speaking, biology isn't defined by edge cases. There is a clear biological definition of sex, which a small percentage of examples do not fit into. That doesn't negate the existence of biological sex.
Ah ok, I just got confused. Thank you for the clarification.
> 2G and 3G are going away soon

Only in the most developed countries, as places like Bolivia are still hanging on to 2G. You just don't hear about those places because of that demographics problem, so people assume 4G/5G are all that's out there.
scammer PM'ed me, asking if I would sell, asked to get low level access to check audience, I know it was a scam but got really curious, because it was really low role access so I thought "what kind of damage can he do really" to myself.

It was small page so I went with it, granted role (I will not go into specifics for obvious reasons) and waited... as soon as he got the role, he (or maybe someone helping him) claimed my page from another account and confirmed with this newly granted role by me, quickly removed me and merged it into bigger page.

As I was looking at it I actually managed to click "Cancel" button several times when he was sending claims and made it as troublesome as possible but eh.

It is a loophole that Facebook has not closed yet, I tried to inform them but tools are really rare for that.
> The problem with most black-box declarative interfaces is that you often do care about how things will happen. The real-world limitations often leak through the declarative interface, because you have to care about things like performance, or do things that don't quite fit into the opinionated declarative interface, or have other weird constraints that the authors didn't think of.

Can you give an example of this for k8s?
I was honestly asking the question. Have a good one.
shockingly, internet cartoon series has edgy jokes- including referring to an iconic japanese symbol as 'sushi chef headband', and using a round SS logo as their round opensea logo- but anyone who doesn't agree with your nazi conspiracy theory is 'pretending' it's ridiculous?

half of the argument proposed is that monkeys are involved, because monkeys have also been used in offensive stereotypes- so wouldn't nazis be offended at the monkey skull in the ss logo?

joking about taboos has always been a part of any type of underground humor, and idiots freaking out about 'secret nazis' is just playing into the joke
Crypto leads to surge in online scams
I can’t wrap my head around how those Cryptopunk NFTs can be sold for millions of dollars. Is it actually possible to cash out on those and convert their value to a real fiat currency?
You can't according to science. We are simply not capable of multitasking. There is a great podcast on Hidden Brain: Life Interrupted.

However what does seem to work is no lyric music with a rhythm that's close to your own heart rate.

I listen to a genre of music someone hacked together thats seem to making gains: epic music. Popular artists I like are Two Steps from Hell and Audio Machine.

I code but it seems science agrees if you find non intrusive music that you don't need to interpret but simply "groove" subconsciously is your best bet.

Another genre I like; Baroque, chamber music ie Bach Handel
We have the US Surgeon General, who has sworn an auth to uphold and defend the US Constitution, saying that a US citizen's rights should be infringed? And he's suggesting to a corporation that they may want to do that for him?

Impeach him.

There is no difference between a high government official directly censoring someone and a corporation doing on that official's behalf.
Well the control codes were specifically for TTY rather than typewriters, many of the control codes still make sense from that standpoint.
