This is a fun game - more Morse code games are a good idea!

The slow setting is painfully slow though - that isn't teaching the right sound of the morse code.

So I'd suggest the minimum letter speed should be 20wpm but with spacing between the letters to make it easier to understand when you get up to words.

Note dot time in ms is 1200/wpm if that helps!

PS speaking as someone who can do morse at about 15 wpm now after having studied on LCWO for quite a few months!
On the “sun orbits the galaxy”… I’ve read that the galaxy isn’t bound together by some massive black hole but instead by dark matter. The black hole in the center doesn’t have nearly enough mass for things like the sun to orbit it.

So what is the sun and all its neighbors actually orbiting around?
It's also a backup model that would benefit to a hilarious degree from deduplication...

That's a very good question. Asynchronous design is really cool, but has never gone anywhere that I know of.

I'll second this as someone who NEVER learned Morse code. We did lessons on it time and again during scouts, but, not only was there a near fetishistic emphasis on the dots and dashes, there was also an angry rejection of the idea that rhythm and pauses were a part of the process. Yes, multiple combinations of dots and dashes lead to the same pattern, but you were just supposed to determine the difference from context. The adults would give us a message like the one below and then despair that our generation was full of idiots.

..... .-... -..-- -.--- --.-. .-..- ..

Sometimes they took it further and had us try to decode call signs and license plates, which gleefully removed that extra layer of context.

> Is tech trying to push stuff like Women and Black Girls Can Code Too for the sake of being noble and kind to all, or are they just desperately trying to increase the size of the labor pool to reduce the leverage that their highly paid employees have?

It's probably a bit of both, but I also firmly believe that DEI initiatives are largely supported from the top because this is the type of criticism that has historically led to unionization and labor organization efforts, and the software industry is trying very hard not push the workforce in that direction. Some of the early unions in the US were comprised of minorities that were excluded from the labor force by whites.[0]

I understand that labor organizing is still a fairly taboo topic, but it gave us things like the 40 hour workweek and the minimum wage. Those were not just handed out by the ownership class.

> Have you ever watched Joe Rogan?

I'm guessing not. Most of these people calling to censor him have never listened to a second of his show besides the sound bites the corporate media (who see him as competition even though he's never claimed to be a journalist) has played. Or they are articles out headlines. You can tell someone who's never watched him because they claim he's a right winger when really he's further left than they are.
On the one hand, I absolutely don't care either way. It's just an icon and easily still looks familiar like the chrome icon.

Looking at the new icon by itself though if I didn't already know it as the chrome icon, makes it look like the icon of any random new startup/project. It's bland, round, flat. Actually it does suit what Chrome has become--it doesn't stand for anything in particular, just commercial software that happens to be based on some opensource.
My point is that people keep saying that crypto will do things when it has in fact had plenty of time to do those things.
Not quite. Engineering and technology can involve the application of science and math. I'm a physicist working at a technology company. The products might not need a lot of math and physics, but when they do, the engineers and programmers are over their heads. Just the fact that most people hate the things that I enjoy doing, and are glad to hand it off to me, are enough to keep me employed.

I wouldn't build a tech business out of entirely physicists, but there aren't that many physicists anyway.
I do not know why you mention Windows, i never referred to any specific platform (you mention Linux, Linux does not actually have what you describe because Linux is a kernel and what you describe is something that would live on the userland - the userland heavily relies on what software is installed and many setups, like mine, do not have such a thing).

What i refer is how to provide a more secure approach to to THE SAME THING that people are already doing with clipboard copy/paste without breaking the versatility of the clipboard, workflows or even existing applications and can be supported with minimal changes in existing applications and pretty much zero re-learning by users. It is about being able to copy/paste stuff securely anything that can already be copy/pasted between applications and not just passwords or other stuff you'd need to store permanently. It can even be made to work in a backwards compatible way - with some additional though minimal effort from the user - for applications that do not support the functionality.

What you refer to is having a different workflow, have applications add explicit support for the specific data mentioned and be accessed in a different way and up to the last reply you were referring to permanent storage.

You ask people to change how they use software, i ask them to use a different menu option for sensitive stuff. What exactly do you think is the more likely to happen?

(well, assuming anything would happen, in practice most likely nothing will change)

I do not have skepticism about what you refer to, i do not even think what you refer to is wrong for the stuff it is intended for, i am just not referring to the same stuff you do.

MRIs are stunningly loud indeed. The music would distract me from the noise patterns which other than being interesting to me don't keep me from napping in what to me is a cozy tunnel (whereas the music might).
Okay, so following the logic here...

1) US, presumably through the CIA, supports a color revolution in Ukraine to oust a democratically elected leader.

2) The newly installed leader, presumably with CIA influence, is markedly more favorable to the west.

3) Russia invades and occupies Crimea. Russia sends troops into eastern Ukraine.

4) (Potential future) Russia sends troops into other areas of Ukraine.

Did I get that right?

If so, what are the justifications for (3) & (4)? That Russia is upholding the rightful choice of Ukrainian democracy?

When you make a comment like this without even acknowledging the social dynamic at play, which is like the whole story, you come across as very disingenuous and very pro censorship.

> With Apple's track record with online services I wouldn't trust them to not mess this up.

While I agree that their track record 5-10 years ago was poor with multiple false starts around iCloud/Me.com. I do think they have absolutely nailed their online services now, iCloud is brilliant and does everything that the market it’s targeted at wants (maybe except versioned backup).
So the constraint was physical volume and not really weight?

Being a proponent of free markets doesn't prevent me from criticizing how that freedom is exercised.

It is censorship by any reasonable definition. It's just not illegal censorship.

Capital is upset with how much STEM workers have to be paid these days. It wants cut throat competition for your jobs, not programmers who need to be induced into turning up to work with a free sushi bar.

It's not just about training people for STEM either, anything that gets people into the profession has money thrown at it. Another example: https://www.gawker.com/mark-zuckerbergs-self-serving-immigra...

It pairs well with politicians' desires to sell a viable route into the middle class. It's easy to roll money into nonprofits for this type of thing and claim tax deductions, so it's win/win/win.

I don’t think it’s accurate to say they’ve let TM languish. They recently did a big update that allows it to work on AFPS-formatted drives that takes advantage of AFPS snapshots. And prior to that, changes to take advantage of AFPS snapshots on the source drives as well.

The UI hasn’t changed, but there have been big changes under the covers.

I don’t want to poopoo anyone offering suggestions that they have found helpful for themselves. That said, I want to offer a word of caution: there is some prototyping appeal in Meteor for sure, but it can also be a trap. It does a lot of unconventional stuff that isn’t just unidiomatic in the JS ecosystem, but also full of magic that might obscure what’s actually being built. Eg magic globals instead of imports, which are incredibly hard to find. And fibers which make async look sync. And if you want to go from prototype to a serious project, you’ll either be stuck in Meteor or throwing the whole thing away (not necessarily a bad thing, but like I said: caution).

Not your fault but the easiest way to prevent this is to return equipment at a corporate store, you'll get a receipt for the return.
because if more kids can be tricked into STEM careers, more engineers will graduate, and the cost of hiring goes down, and they are easier to replace. and when these engineers earn less they cannot quit. and by getting them into bootcamps and spreading the idea that degrees are useless, they do not need to pay for a degree and they can train you for their tool set, which no one else is using, preventing you from quitting.

coding interviews act as a mechanism that demotivates people to quit or switch companies. it also helps with driving cost of hiring down. engineers tend to engage in pissing contests of who is smarter, especially at FANG companies. this furthers their goals.

Either way there must be advantages in multiple backups:

Even with different decay rates they won't all decay in the same way. We can diff multiple records and reproduce a probable original.

I think what the author's getting at is that the function you pass to JavaScript .sort() just returns a number — not special sentinel values — which represents the relative order of two items in the array. By calling that function strategically from a loop, .sort() can sort the array.

Similarly, an SDF returns a number that represents how far a point in 3D space is from an object's surface. And, by calling that function strategically from a loop, you can draw a 3D scene using only that function.
Well..every country is different but in my experience it's super easy to get a work visa in most European countries if you're in any technical field. In general I would figure out maybe which country you want to move to first and then start looking into companies, but that's assuming you are ok to leave your current company. This is the one situation where I heavily relied on third party recruiters as they knew obviously know the scene better than I do and then on subsequent jobs I figured out on my own once I got the lay of the land.

Blackout is unintentional. Unless it is the result of infrastructure mismanagement stemming from politicians' ineptitude. In any case, it is not an acute malicious action, and quite the strawman argument.

I don't think you're taking my statement in good faith and so I won't expand on it - since you don't seem interested in discourse by offering your thoughts instead of flatly questioning mine.
I find loud screamo music the most soothing and compliments background machinery well.
It always gets me abit, angular is called bloated however all the react/vue applications i have worked with have been bloated by shitty packages left and right to fix problems that never existed in angular, im probably just to old or what not but i dont find the configuration bad since you can always figure out what went wrong, that is not the case on react/vue unfortuenately, it ends up being very opinionated by the last dev that took charge, and the endless refactors of architecture because now there is a new way of doing it..
I suspect a lot of the improvements have come from advancements in simulation fidelity and optimization techniques. The raw amount of computing power for computational fluid dynamics has gone up orders of magnitude, and there's been a lot of improvements in machine learning over the last 10 years. 20 years ago, it was still very much an art of designing a shape, fabricating it, trying it, then refining it. Nowadays a lot of that refinement can be done virtually. Not that someone at Boss or whatever is an ML expert, but the person that wrote their CAD tools might have been.

Also, there has been recent emphasis on rather aggressive software based automatic/factory equalization and optimization for human perception rather than flatness. That's an incremental improvement, but like smartphone camera photos, it can really elevate the experience.
I don’t think anyone here is arguing they should be forced to keep these episodes up. I just think that they should voluntarily want to do so, and that it’s bad we have a cultural climate where letting people hear contrarian political views is a financial risk in the first place.

Ask HN: How to log full HTTP requests
I want backups for all data entering my system at the HTTP level. It happens fairly often in my career that the worst data loss bugs happen in ways where you're not covered by backups. The data doesn't get saved, validation goes amok, it gets saved them gets deleted. In all these cases having backups of the data as it enters the system would enable recovery of it.

Are there tools like this? It's not enough to just save it, it would need to be searchable as well. The data may be sensitive so it would need to be encrypted too.
