Now…talking while I code and explaining. I don’t ever do well there.
Oh come on. I'm not talking about the Illuminati here, I'm talking about the heads, advisers and important employees of executive departments like HUD, the Treasury, the FED, things like that. If you'd done a little thinking before responding maybe you'd have considered that. Unless you think our society is just entirely unmanaged?
> They're not giving you a very charitable reading.

Good point. I hadn't noticed before, but that has been a repeated problem with my brother. When he transitioned, my parent's difficulty changing pronouns was interpreted as a sign of their lack of support. Well no, they're just trying to break 25 years of conditioning ...

I still use Simutrans soundtrack[0] to this day as background noise during light work. If you never heard it before it sounds like elevator music. I highly recommend it in case you want to fill the silence :)

Twitter Tells U.S. Senator It’s Cutting Ties to Swiss Tech Firm
I dont know for certain.

I recall that if you were not signed in to an account on their Org, it would only show up with you as that you were a guest in the room, and you could not do much/anything without someone from that org authorising you.

I dont know if the token is long lived, i would hope its rotated frequently.

i also suspect that because it's above audible range, your average video compression might strip it out.
There are multiple things to sign. At my company, you sign most of them on your first day on the job. I probably could have asked to see them during the offer stage, but there's no guarantee that's the same document you'll be asked to sign (and likely the part of HR involved in giving you the offer is not the same part of HR that makes you sign the first day).
Ferrum – high-level API to control Chrome in Ruby
Exactly. And the people who don't see this are those with an engineering-like mind that just these as computers with parts and their own relationship to the device. And perhaps for that group there should be another product on the market that satisfies those needs. I think Google wanted Android to be that, but as we all know, as they scale to serve the same addressable market as Apple, the device becomes more Apple like and locked down. There isn't really much that can be done.
I would be surprised if any of my male and females friends from Georgia Tech ('07) couldn't identify and accurately describe every technical word in great detail, or even talk about them for hours on end. The same apples for colleagues I work with daily.

Among the general populace, I'm guessing that's less likely.
Yocto is fantastic and well documented but getting started is hard and nothing makes much sense until you fully understand it. Once it clicks, though, it’s great. Totally worth the effort.
Not sure the UN gets to invalidate national charters, but judging by what's going on in Canada politically, we may have the opportunity to invite them to try. I look forward to their strongly worded letter.
With all due respect, you took the stance that "not everything is political".

Therefore, the rational argument is to let you pick something that "isn't political" then demonstrate how it is political. There's literally no other way to demonstrate this point based on the pretext you set.

The units we got were like TV sound bar format, with a camera in the middle. About $10-15k each.
For whatever reason, animated Pokemon were a particularly tough case - I remember Charizard in particular being a tough offender for false positives. I cannot find a reference to it now, but I distinctly remember that at one point Yahoo's open_nsfw also had issues with Pokemon (although these two networks do not have a common lineage). Why would these cause problems? Not sure - maybe something to do with gradients of near-skin-tones.
It doesn't seem like it's quick enough. We're, at minimum, decades away from it even being built out commonly, and to _really_ save ourselves we should have already replaced a substantial portion of the world's energy generation decades ago.
Doesn't Jordan Peterson occupy that niche?
You've made quite a leap from what I said (travel, even extensive travel, isn't a pleasure reserved for high-income tech workers) to taking care of infirm or permanently disabled family members. Why not bring up 95-year-old diabetics? They certainly can't hop on a plane to go hitchhiking across Europe. There's always someone worse off, I never said _anyone_ can do it, but it's far less exclusive than Cthulu_ makes it sound.

By the way, children are a choice in most cases. If you decide to have children in your twenties, I agree, you won't have the same flexibility that I had. That's kind of the point of what I wrote: you can pick your priorities in life. Career and children are a popular priority, but that doesn't mean everything else in life has to be a nice-to-have that you can only consider once you have the house and kids. Orwell wasn't caring for a toddler while he and his wife were fighting in Catalonia.
Everyone who’s anyone on the left reads Sailer’s Takimag column regularly. It’s pretty funny. Although in my opinion he’s most entertaining when he nerds out on golf course design and moneyball.

Red Sails is a great recommendation. Thanks!

Do you happen to know a good English language magazine or blog for Xi Jinping Thought? As far as I can tell Marxism/Leninism is just an historical curiosity, but Socialism with Chinese Characteristics is a truly effective if not palatable living Communist system.
FFS, "Stephen Hawking has died" is NEWS. It's not Stephen Hawking's new theory!

A message to our customers is also news.

If someone is capable of discriminating among news stories, that's all well and good. But they aren't. Probably due to lack of resources which dang often alludes to.

Another thing, "All time" is all time, by definition, it doesn't capture if things are getting worse, which I think they are.

What have we got for popularity in the last week?

"Spotify deletes 70 Joe Rogan episodes(https://www.jremissing.com/)"

Oh, yeah, that's TOTALLY HN material!

Well, it is now, isn't it?

Something can be tech-related and still complete clickbait and by-the-book not appropriate.

And if that's what HN is, fine. Change the goddamn description of what it is, then.
I'm interested -- would you be willing to develop on this a little?
I thought that way before my current job. I learned the error of my ways. In companies like mine, you'll get a Linux account on a server, and will not have root privileges. So you're quite limited on the SW you can easily install (try installing Emacs with all its dependencies from source).

Since then, whenever I shifted teams, I'd pick ones where I don't have to use Linux. At least I can customize my Windows laptop easily, and Emacs works just fine on it.
They are priced high enough that companies doing this are already hip deep in Cisco's world.

I've had this same experience with writing music.

The trick isn't to be brilliant and pop out a masterpiece. The actual trick is to be able to generate enough variations that you can sort through them, cull the promising from the unpromising, rearrange them in various ways, stitch together the seams, and then sit back and lean on your personal aesthetic to decide whether what you've cobbled together makes you want to share it with others, keep chipping away at it, or abandon it altogether and start over (or not).
You want a 1% female? I mean you sound like you are only 1% on income alone so that’s probably not enough. You probably have also gotten quite difficult at your age. At some point people get old and really set in their ways and are hard to merge into a marriage unit
My Land Rover got an over-the-air update to add support for Amazon Alexa just the other day, completely out of the blue. It's not just luxury or tech cars that do this kind of thing these days.
So would this give power to people who dislike/disagree with some thread to censor it by posting more comments? This policy would pretty certainly encourage more negativity, if putting out comments can get something deleted
Earlier today I was idly wondering: if aliens invented computers and went through the whole 8-bit era, 16-bit era etc. - would they perhaps have developed architectures which had additional "shadow" or "tag" bits on every word? What might they use them for?

The idea being maybe an intelligent race with different balance of motivations might not do only the minimum economical thing, instead being willing to trade X% of memory bits or X% of instructions per second or X% more chips for other purposes. For example extra tag bits might be used to encode where the data came from or its datatype, or additional clock cycles between instructions might be used to run a reliability check on the program as it executes, etc.
It'd be surprising if a 2-year-old's death was not common. Before 1900 or so, children in every society died like flies before reaching adulthood. It's why societies are so protective of their children, and why people had large families.
Thanks so much. I'll do that right now.

So, it sounds like you're well versed in these worlds. If you don't mind me asking, is there a strong personal reason you choose to hang in these spaces over generic web spaces? Don't like being a part of the corporate web? Or is it the customizability? Or any other reason?

Anyone here build social apps?
I don't mean working at Meta, more curious if someone who's online right now is building new social apps.

The term "social app" is pretty vague, I want to get an understanding of what it means to those of you who are building new social apps. What is your niche, and what led you there?
It funny how there has been a lineup of people explaining how Young is not advocating censorship. There was a recent article about how it's actually "curation", an NYT article about rights vs responsibilities, etc.

Obviously Young is not himself a censor. He doesn't have a platform, and he has no obligation (outside whatever contracts he has) to stay on a platform he doesn't agree with. He should be able to do what he wants. That doesn't change the fact he's advocating for censorship.
I disagree that it’s superficial or accidental.
Interesting: the 4th sentence shows Andrew Yang publicly acknowledging that many "ADHD" diagnoses are spurious, i.e. in those spurious cases it's just a fancy medical-sounding term for students who are struggling academically:

> Boys and men across all regions and ethnic groups have been failing, both absolutely and relatively, for years. [...] The data are clear. Boys are more than twice as likely as girls to be diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder [...]

I agree that the massive increase in the US and UK over the last 20 years in the use of medical jargon such as "dyslexia" and "ADHD" in high school educational contexts isn't a helpful strategy for society to be taking.
Even if a potential teammate has an overly restrictive IP clause, in my experience a lot of companies are genuinely using boilerplate, never thought about it much, and are happy to redline to "Company's IP if on company time / company equipment / directed by company". I don't think it's inappropriate to bring it up with a manager, but I wouldn't trust any answer until you get to contract negotiation.
Good comment. In addition addition to a very complex dividing line between toxic and healthy, there is the larger problem of creating phrases of the form "toxic X" or "healthy X" where X is an identity. There is no part of our culture where X is allowed to have the value of "blackness" or "gayness" or "femininity". The wording itself reduces the entire issue of problematic human behavior to the mechanical act of decoding a persons identity and then applying stereotypes. In that sense, it very much reminds me of astrology, which asserts that it can say something meaningful about you once you tell your birthday. I say that this astrological assertion is precisely as stupid as the identity-based assertions.

Bonus: here is the actress from the Hanna TV series, describing the father character from the show, the man who sacrificed his life to protect her from extraordinary threat, and Esme Creed-Miles lazily throws out the "toxic masculinity" label. The phrase is just a reflex, at this point, and has no meaning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPMdEtzoj-Q&t=433s
The aesthetic of this is jaw dropping. Real comfy 90's DOS vibes.

This is just nonsense, at least in the jurisdictions I'm familiar with. Outliers exist, sure.
This is a pretty weird fantasy about what goes on in an Intel CPU.

But I mean, if you really want to avoid Intel and AMD (and Apple), there are plenty of ARM or even RISC-V options out there.

`aspect-ratio` specifies the preferred ratio. It gets used in cases where sizing values are intrinsic.

In your first example, it would be overruled by the defined sizing values. I think that's fine, personally. Further, I don't see how it breaks the box model – esp. given that the spec that defines box model also defines `aspect-ratio`
Excellent news. For someone working from chair and dealing with a lingering mild sensation kind of feeling (sometimes faint pain like) in the lower back any new development in the spine region gives hope for the future if things go wrong. (I’ve mild lower spine bulging that doctors say nothing to worry about though).

I would be ecstatic if there was a cure for occipital pain (other than cutting the lower occipital nerves; that too just based on mere guess; or having regular nerve blocker injections) and a clear way to properly diagnose and image the region.
I've been sprung with these before. Usually trivial, unenforceable issues, but annoying none the less. The worst was I once even had a background check _after_ accepting and signing. Nothing came up, but that could have left me with no job and no recourse.

How do you avoid this? It's a particular kind of institutional trickery that may not even be intentional but is very frustrating.
CSS already has to deal with conflicting values all over the place, for example:

.foo {
box-sizing: border-box;
width: 10px;
border 50px solid red;
}

What should the dimensions be?

I'm sure the spec writers thought about the conflict already and decided what takes precedence.
To be fair, the main reason instabilities are less of a concern is wrapped up in that B^4 scaling.
>A screen reader can’t describe a JPEG or animated GIF.

Sure it can. There's a whole field of computer science for doing just that, computer vision.

>You can’t automatically translate text in images

You can use OCR to read text from images.

>Images and their toolchains like imagemagick introduce attack vectors.

This isn't fair. Text based toolchains can be vulnerable too. There have been millions of vulnerabilities with string handling

>They take up more disk space.

Buy a bigger hard drive / cloud storage.

>You can’t change the font of text in images.

Pick a readable font in the first place.

>Text in images is not greppable.

Again your could use OCR to make thi spossible.

>Do you need to change some text in that documentation image? Hope you have the vector-based original!

Check in the project file to source control or just draw over the current one.
Pointing the camera at a fixed image would, in fact, be fine.

The lava lamp is just for publicity. Any old camera attached to any old gadget provides more truly random bits than you will ever need, no matter where it is pointed, or isn't. A microphone, likewise. A radio receiver, likewise.

People rolling dice to get random numbers is the height of silliness. Using a specially built gadget is about equally silly: you never know if you built it right. AMD shipped microprocessors with a "true random number generator" device, and instruction to access it, that gave wholly non-random numbers. They had to distribute a microcode patch for that, demonstrating that microcode is able to deny you those supposedly truly-random bits any time the spooks like.
I'm way off. I meant 15A. Now I've no clue what the journalist is calculating.
You can use statistics to make inferences about groups as a whole, but you can’t use stats to deduce anything about any specific case.

A coin has a 50/50 chance of being heads, but just because the coin landed on tails last time doesn’t mean it’ll be a head the next time.

They cater to musicians because that's what midi was invented for. At the end of the day it's just a protocol and you can interpret it however you like. Any random midi controller will work great.

My relatively cheap keyboard has midi over USB and I was able to dump raw midi into a terminal after five minutes of googling.
Show HN: Optimize Happiness at Work with Flow Tracker
I guess I don't see a particular primary moral axis. I've run workshops on responding to emotional attacks and I would imagine all 5 they listed would apply to most Americans in different ways, so I'm curious why he woukd say there's one and why he said it was care/harm.

Sure, but you still have double the chance of failure.. Two distinct PG clusters you depend on are twice as likely to have an outage as one.
From what I've read, they NEVER admit to anything.
Vim has digraphs for all of these characters, which I like to use. e.g. you can get ┌ with <C-K>dr (d = down, r = right), and ┨ with <C-K>Vl (V = heavy vertical, l = left). To find the mappings, :digraphs shows the whole list, or copy this block of text and put the cursor over any of the characters in normal mode and type ga and it’ll echo things like “<┠> 9504, Hex 2520, Oct 22440, Digr Vr”.

(I use a Compose key for almost all character composition, with plenty of custom mappings in my ~/.XCompose, but box drawing specifically I have skipped and use Vim digraphs, and so drop into Vim any time I want to write any.)
Well no. It means they convinced someone to give them 12M. It says nothing about the credentials of the lender, or that those credentials are even relevant or accurate.

Not to mention that convincing a vc, regardless of clout, is not about objective profitability or anything correlated with success.

It’s about convincing a person that you can make money, and people are in capable of being objective
Great articles!

> the unification of Docker and Wasm containers will happen at the orchestration layer.
In fact, it happens now. The integration with WasmEdge and K8s toolings has been done. Developers could use crun, CRI-O, containerd, KubeEdge, KIND, OpenYurt and K8s to start, manage, and orchestrate WasmEdge Apps. See more here: https://wasmedge.org/book/en/kubernetes.html

WebAssembly will run side by side with Docker using the same orchestration tools.
I wonder if there will be any CAD software that used SDF for modelling. Smooth detail + easy slicing seems like a good fit.
>I remember at the very beginning people jumping from the fact that there is a lab in Wuhan

To be fair, at the time it was know that the Wuhan lab it was one of the leading two labs in the world working with bat and pangolin coronaviruses. They were genetically engineering and combining them and testing them in animal models. One of the primary investigations was modifying proteins so that they can infect hosts using human ACE2 pathway.
This is my reaction every time I see a service like this. In addition to training users that is somehow okay to just give up your credentials to a 3rd party, you are now indefinitely allowing the storage of passwords in a fully reversible format on a platform you have no control over.

Despite all the best efforts by any company engaging in this practice to protect your passwords, these entities are setting themselves up to have a huge target on their back. The technology they employ relies on being able to decrypt passwords programmatically which means it becomes visible on the server’s RAM and could potentially be triggered to decrypt the password as part of an attack. Given that a majority of people use the same passwords for multiple services, it is likely an attacker would be able to determine credentials for someone’s bank or email account via a credential stuffing attack.

Plaid with a bank that does not support oauth scares the hell out of me and I have backed out of using services because this was the only way to enter bank details. I am still shocked that this is largely considered an okay practice.
Intrigued about handaxeweb.lua, which of course with little modification today, can be run within a LuaLaTeX document and produce a pdf with your explanation of LSM-trees and or the listing of the python program.
And on ccnuma systems, you end up getting memory contention and huuuuuge memory latencies, as well for the data also residing in the same cacheline. Often we would align and isolate these locks within a cacheline blocke... which also wastes a lot of space if you have a lot of these (I was consulting on an enterprise app that had millions I think. It made a big difference in the software's memory footprint.)
I pretty much gave up trying to chase something, instead I will experience life and maybe the good things will come. I figure I'm 30 and I'm finding that since I'm quite mediocre at things compared to the people I compare myself to, I am just gonna appreciate that I'm healthy enough, and I have a 6 month runway in cash if things were to go from $current_speed to 0.

So.. there's tomorrow hopefully so just gonna keep doing what makes me happy. Last time things went to 0, I had enough saved up for a month or two to change careers into tech. If it happens again I have at least a bit more breathing room.
I believe the issue is that the surrounding materials of the torus in the TOKAMAK become highly radioactive due to neutron bombardment and decay accordingly.

IIRC, there is some sort of Silicon Carbon based material that need to be economically feasible to manufacture (that can withstand a fair amount of neutron bombardment without crumbling like other materials) before a plant will ever make sense. There may be alternative materials but none of them are cheap enough to build a long-term TOKAMAK even if we could achieve the incremental net power necessary for a power plant.
