Yeah, there're a lot of factors you dont see coming that make poetic middle of nowhere life feel not super sustainable long term.

Me and my partner lived in the CA desert for a long time for reasons similar to what you list about problematic big cities and benefits listed in the post but once we felt like we conquered it (?) we ended up wanting to return to family / friends / civilization / 6 dollar cappuccinos / brick oven pizzas / walkable resources etc.

That said I wouldnt trade that time for anything and theres a strong chance Ill be back when im done futilely participating in humanity.

Rogan’s own doctor advised him to treat coronavirus with ivermectin. Just like two hundred members of congress were treated with ivermectin. He mentioned what he was treated with as I imagine the congresspeople would.
> This makes it quite clean because files have the same import url even as relative paths change, so you can move files all around and the import statements can stay the same.

That only works if no one is using your module as a dependency.

Only if go mod understands the source control mechanism, and only if the HTTP server in front of that speaks the survival go mod protocol. It's a horrible system that the go team doesn't use internally.

I think a move from centralized reliability studies and economic commitment/dispatch to a decentralized approach will be enormously difficult if we're talking about a fully automated system without operators in the middle.

Much of what the article is advocating for is demand side participation, which is indeed the holy grail of energy markets. We're not quite there though, so demand is still very inelastic which causes all kinds of problems.
This isn't a great idea at the packet level. You get really bad results by intentionally reordering packet in a tcp connection. It's not going to be good for any flow that expects packets to arrive in order for the most part (voip calls etc).

Plus accumulating old packets isn't great. FIFO preserves order, but the typical behavior is to drop incomming packets when the buffer is full (or to make an absurdly sized buffer), when it's usually better to drop older packets than fresh packets.
I was under the impression that the term Fetch was chosen because it didn’t have much overlap with existing popular libraries or a common variable name. I feel like I read that in the early days of its creation. However, I just spent a while looking for that discussion in the Whatwg spec and was unable to find it. Would love it if someone else could verify that belief. Perhaps I’m mixing it up with something else.

I don't think the person you're replying to would disagree with your sentiment, but that doesn't excuse dismissing their opinion and experience because it's worse elsewhere.

They are pointing out that there's plenty in Japan to make you sick and disgusted with them as a society, but Japan does a great job with the media so they have a mostly undeserved glowing reputation internationally.

You want to hate on China. More power to you, but that doesn't excuse Japan from wrong doing. As a society is has TONS of deep social issues that cause massive damage to it's own citizens and worldwide.

Uh oh! Is this when trying to get the project info via our REST API (or pip package) for custom training?

I’m working on getting that working with Universe shared projects ASAP but the Jupyter notebook link should work with our training notebooks in the meantime.

Edit: I should mention that inference against the trained api on this project also should work A-Ok already.

The first Iraq war could be considered a victory. Clear objectives, once achieved the war stopped. Bush Sr was smart enough not to expand the war although a lot of people were pushing for a march into Baghdad.
Someplace diverse, where I want to raise my kids, allows them to explore a wide variety of possibilities. They should be able to see the arts via museums and theaters while also being able to explore the outdoors. There should be paths to dive deep in the areas that spark their curiosity, whether it be varsity sports, science and math olympiads, becoming a ballet dancer, or becoming an expert woodworker.

They should be exposed to large enough cohorts of people with different backgrounds and interests that stereotypes are pushed away and when they meet new people, they instead form relationships by getting to know that person instead of assuming things about them.
> If it's not too much to ask, do you mind sharing some of the pain points?

To me, the point of literate programming is that you have a coherent (literate, if you well) document that explains how the program actually works, and the reason it's put together how it is. This is NOT an easy thing to write. It takes as much organization as the program itself. I found the document structure to be continuously in flux, as I updated the program to deal with new requirements. So either document would poorly structured, or I would spend a LOT of time keeping it good.
It sounds like that company was just dysfunctional.

Yes, "Trump did do that", but not exactly the same. I see nuance is getting lost on Hacker News, too.

Trump said outright that he'd nominate federal judges off a list, not that he would "consider all judges". The media regularly hold Democrats to a far tighter standard than they hold Republicans in general, and infinitely tighter standard than they held Trump. This whole thing is merely another example.

Rail is insanely efficient over long distances but these seem to be optimized for shorter route with a 500 mile limit ignoring battery degradation. For rural lines that might see 10 trains a day increasing utilization via ultra short trains on local routes could be very profitable for a railroad as long is it doesn’t require people or interfere with existing traffic.

Basically if a tiny spur for loading and unloading doesn’t need to fit a full sized train they you can cheaply add a lot of stations.

Maybe once a war starts officially the whole economy should go into a non profit mode. I think that would make a lot of people much less interested in waging wars.
I am not sure what to think of homeschooling. I was homeschooled until grade 8 and even after did a ton of courses online. Worked out great for me, but only because I am not a social person. I am not certain that I can be lonely as long as I have an internet connection, as I spent days by myself in university.

How that worked out for some other people I know was much more mixed.

The design decision of providing thread safe operations on data structures by default is a pretty poor one. In my experience this is the wrong level of abstraction on which to perform mutual exclusion of certain operations. Normally you want locks around a transaction-like operation that might involve multiple operations on a data structure (or multiple data structures). When just using concurrency safe containers on their own, subtle consistency bugs can be introduced and you end up writing a second layer of locks around the higher level code anyways, now paying the performance overhead of locking twice, once for your logic and then for the container.

Thanks for the information, dang. It's interesting that mods have so much discretion in keeping things on the front page or bumping them off the front page. Is there a transparency report you make available that shows cases when these adjustments are made and how often?

I think that would also help quell fears that fingers are placed on the scale in favor of YC companies.
Cryptocurrencies give you the OPTION to use a trust-less decentralized system. If that’s not your cup of tea, nobody is forcing you to opt-in to this system. Go use a bank, or a centralized exchange, or whatever makes you happy.

> At absolute minimum, the purveyors of such tech should be providing 'off the shelf' free wallet software that solves all of these problems of magical knowledge.

UI is continually improving and is already much better than in the early days. But the “purveyors of this tech” don’t owe you anything. If you’re not satisfied with the current wallet offerings, you can go build your own, or you can simply choose not to use cryptocurrencies.
I don't see that as disagreeing with the parent in the end. The key words are 'decide to', which the parent already used. Once you recognize a problem and decide not to deal with it, it's technical debt. You're avoiding paying for the problem for some reason. Perhaps you hope to never deal with it, or perhaps you think you can get better return on your (time/energy) investment working on something else first.

The point stands: Unforeseen problems aren't 'tech debt' in themselves. They become tech debt once they are recognized and not dealt with.
You don't even have to use the internet. It applies to printed data too. Your Rolodex could be a GDPR nightmare.

If the USA didn't do much against Microsoft, and we didn't, we've got on excuse to do anything at all to Apple, Facebook, Google and Amazon.

I thought Microsoft should have been broken up in 1999-2000, but the court system thought otherwise. If we don't treat "tech giants" today equally, what is law and order anyway?
I've been trying to find this site that, if I recall correctly, just has a gradient background that I think is animated and it's just an audio file of a man saying "Welcome to the" something-something in different ways.

I tried googling it but because it's so nondescript it's hard to find it.
What is the best way to learn Python for Bioinformatics?
I am having a hard time connecting by biological knowledge with learning to collect, analyze, and especially visualize the data. I am using Biostar Handbook (using Ubuntu) to use the pipelines and clean the data. But how do I analyze and present? This is mainly for whole genome/exome/RNA sequencing.
I genuinely despise the modern chicklet wireless keyboards they make, but I agree that they've made some good keyboards in the past. The G3 iMac had phenomenal keyboards, arguably one of the best layouts of it's time. It didn't even feel like something Apple would make, it closer resembled an IBM peripheral...

I'll agree that Apple still completely misunderstands what people want from a mouse, but their history with keyboards is a lot less shaky.
There is one big difference that makes shooting film incomparable to shooting digital even if you print and scan: highlight rolloff.

Think of each of your digital camera sensor pixels as a cell containing an integer value, between 0 and let’s say 16383. During exposure time, it collects photons and accumulates its value based on how much light hits this particular pixel. While it’s close to zero, it’s strongly affected by noise floor (which is subject to numerous factors, including e.g. sensor heating up, and can affect pixels unevenly across the sensor). However, once it reaches 16383, it clips—which is a binary threshold after which the pixel is pure color (green, blue or red) and basically contains no useful information at all.

By contrast, as light hits your negative film it more or less chemically “burns” it into black, with no such binary threshold. (Paradoxically, on very low level, negative film is in some ways more “binary” than digital sensor—in that it consists of tiny halide crystals, each of which is either activated or not—but since they are layered, smaller, and as more crystals are activated each subsequent photon is less likely to hit an unactivated crystal, statistics play out such that thinking of it as burning light into shades of varying darkness is a useful mental shortcut.) When you develop film, it gets inverted and you get highlights smoothly fading into white, and it matters even after you print and scan.

A scene of any contrast becomes a tricky balancing act with digital—you really don’t want to blow out the bright parts, which are often small yet attention-grabbing (hence the most important advice for digital photographers is “underexpose to be safe and pull up as you convert to display-referred space”), but you also don’t want to keep the majority of the scene too close to noise floor. In this sense, film is much more forgiving and better suited for aesthetically pleasing yet casual in-the-moment shots.

Absolutely not, you can still use a mutable reference:

Crowd wisdom is just people imagining what other people might think. What they say to you about what they think is constrained by social mores.

It matters what actual recruiters think.

More specifically it matters if recruiters actually pay money for it.

So the test is asking recruiters to pay money. If they pay knowing you have not built it yet, you are probably on to something. If they won't pay for it to be built, you probably are not.

Good luck.
> You're choices are: die, or pay whatever cost is associated. its not a choice that can be negotiated

This account, or at least should account, for a very small minority of interactions with healthcare facilities. Saying that's why the whole market is defunct is recklessly reductionist.

> markets don't deal with this situation well.

They don't deal with it at all. Imagine if some people needed bread or they'd die, would that change the price on the shelf? No, because the bread didn't get there because of that niche market, it got there because most people eat it. It is the same with healthcare. If a hospital exists because people routinely visit the doctor, some people needing their life saved isn't going to suddenly change prices.

> that's before even getting into pharma. which can charge millions of dollars for life saving/changing drugs for single course treatments. hell take a look at what happened with epipens. there is no protection against profiteering via nebulous 'markets' when your choices are 'purchase or die'.

Totally agree. The issue there is regulation and how we allow companies to be a position of no competition. If the government stepped in and payed those prices for you, it wouldn't solve the problem.
From memory I believe FAANG etc all _claim_ that appeals you lodge are reviewed by a human.

Now if you don’t believe them then you’d need to take them to court and show why you think that’s not the case.

Which I guess means my question is why don’t you believe them and how likely is it that they are lying when they claim thy appeals are reviewed by a human?
That assumes you work in the city and/or go in there all the time for activities. I'm remote anyway but if I did commute it would be into a suburban office park much closer to where I live. I maybe go into the closest major city once a month or so and that's fine for me. I grew up a similar distance from Philadelphia and maybe was in the city once a year.

I saw your later addition:

> > businesses communicating better with their customers

> I'm sorry, but you are living in fantasyland. Those things didn't happen in 1995. Businesses asking for your email address in 1995... yeah right.

Again, why are you telling that things I personally experienced did not happen? Two of the three Southern California suburban high schools I attended during that period had email addresses and web access — one of the first public websites I built was for my high school library, linking to sites like Yahoo which would help you find what you were looking for, because it was already that useful for school. The corner taco shop probably didn't have email but an awful lot of professional businesses were starting to use it — a family friend's law firm was using internet email (following a decade of using CompuServe), that graphic designer, etc. 1995 meant Yahoo, Amazon, eBay had launched and were doing real business. You may recall hearing about Al Gore's push to connect universities with high-performance computing centers, too.

Here's that link again — go through the list and think about how many people were using these sites for things which were not related to selling internet access or software:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_websites_founded_befor...

Technical users dominated, of course, but many of them were using the internet incidentally — downloading GNU software, for example, like the first Linux 0.9 kernel I ran — because it was better than what they were doing before. My grandfather is an electrical engineer and technical customers went online quickly because who wants to wait for postal mail to deliver letters and floppy disks when you don't have to?

Note how many are even further away from IT: NIH or astronomy projects, underground music, TV fan arts, members of the U.S. Congress, etc.

SBCL is an open source, non-commercial, project. That means it largely depends on volunteer effort to get anything done and if the volunteers are insufficiently interested in or focused on Windows, you get the current result.

If you do want Windows support for Common Lisp, happily it exists! But primarily from the commercial CL versions, LispWorks and Allegro CL.

> censorship is the intent to prevent someone from speaking.

You can't mean that seriously. If I successfully form the intention to stop someone speaking, but fail to carry through (perhaps because I don't own a police force), are you really saying that I've succeeded in censoring them?

It seems to be the fashion these days to construct arguments based on redefining words. If "censorship" is a kind of intention, then there doesn't appear to be much wrong with censorship. You've redefined a word that is generally considered to refer to something bad, to mean something that isn't bad. That's sort-of OK, but it means that we have to put a glossary of definitions at the top of anything we say.
Funny; most Dutchmen won't know what is meant by a 'Dutch pancake' baked in an oven. There is indeed nothing Dutch about it. Pancakes here are similar to the British ones; thicker than crêpes, not fluffy like American pancakes. Pancakes are still a popular treat for children, and a good authentic pancake restaurant is certainly not the worst place you can end up in.

(The crêpes you can buy with Nutella on it every 50m in tourist traps¹ are only for money laundering and foreign tourists still struggling to get a grip on Euro conversion rates.)

You could possibly do it server side.

This argument was tried in the Fashion ID case. A company had inserted Facebook Like buttons on the web page, and argued that it was not responsible for the ensuing disclosure of personal data (such as IP addresses or possible tracking cookies) to Facebook. See, it was the browser and not the website operator that disclosed the data, and the website operator never had access to the data in the browser in the first place!

The European Court of Justice did not buy this argument. By coding the website in a particular way, the website operator was responsible for causing the user's browser to act in a particular way, so it was the “data controller” for the collection an transmission of personal data by the Facebook Like button, though Facebook is of course jointly responsible for what their code does.

The underlying argument is that someone is a data controller and thus responsible for GDPR compliance when they determine the “purposes and means” of processing, alone or jointly with others. Embedding the code for the button was an exercise of this power to determine purposes and means. In contrast, the website operator is not a data controller for whatever Facebook does with the collected data on its servers, because it cannot control what FB does.

The given case from Munich is a very straightforward extension from the Fashion ID judgement, though the website operator didn't even claim that they weren't responsible. Instead, they argued that they had a “legitimate interest”in loading fonts from Google servers, which the court rejected. While I consider it probable that Google does not use data from Fonts servers for tracking, the judgement correctly points out that Google is well-known for tracking – but this doesn't matter anyway, since already the disclosure of personal data without a legal basis is a problem.
