This is an excellent point. What makes this even harder is that some of the changes (like basal rates) the equipment is good about supporting multiple profiles and letting you switch between them. Where as the carb ratios and correction factors are set once and overwritten when you update them, and hard to generate reports on how they are changing over time... so not designed to really be adaptable.

There are micro factors (time of day, activity level, sickness level, gut health) and macro factors (months/years, age-dependent / hormone-dependent, growth spurts, climate / time indoors versus outdoors, etc.) factors that will impact both your basal rate and your carb ratio / correction factors.

So the carb ratio and correction factors are programmed based on hour of the day. 18 carbs per unit from 12am - 8am, 16 carbs per unit from 8am - noon, 14 carbs per unit from 12-8pm, etc... and then all these numbers may need to be shifted from time to time.

The urge is to somehow try to track everything (mood, health, activity, phase of the moon, food intake, and of course your blood glucose level every 5 minutes) and input into an algorithm that will look at how often you ended up too high or too low after eating XYZ, or how much your BG rose or fall when you weren't eating, and then make tiny incremental adjustments to the carb ratio, basal rate, and correction factor curves every week.

Currently the state of the art is the doctors generates a bunch of reports once every 3-6 months, eyeballs them, and decides; "Hey, we're gonna try bumping up your morning basal rate by X, change your evening carb ratio by Y, and ..." and then you make the changes and hope things get easier.

When the ratios are right, you can dose for what you eat, and end up back in range after a few hours. You can give yourself a correction and go to sleep, and wake up in range, etc.

The "artificial pancreas" is going to do a tiny percent of this job. It will basically see you are high or low based on the 5-minute BG reports, and bump your basal rate either up or down slightly to put a finger on the scale and move you in the right direction.

It doesn't know what you eat, so it can't bolus for meals. It might eventually get you back in range many hours later. Even with fast acting insulin, you have to bolus ahead of time anyway to get an ideal glucose response, so it's not something an artificial pancreas will be able to solve without much faster acting insulin.
I’m truly not trying to be rude or snarky, but there are a massive number of people living out of cars/RVs/vans in California already. I don’t have a source for this, but I’ve lived in LA and the Bay over the last 3 years. You just gotta drive around.

The Instagram accounts with the $90k tricked-out sprinter vans are a vanishingly small fraction of that.

The “bubble” you’re describing is California’s homelessness crisis.
I find TDD helps me mind-map out my implementations. It's a bit hand-wavy, but generally I'll use TDD when things are complex and I need to clear my head of the bigger picture in favour of focussing on the smaller picture (I.e., lean on the the "next interesting test" mantra) to let the tests lead me through the path.

Will I use TDD for basic things? No. I'll very probably write tests for them though just to provide regression coverage.
Changing and newly-discovered requirements, rather than tests, drive your code.
As a SWE I was initially skeptical about using software to control more aspects of my environment but I finally gave in and gave HA a shot. It took some work but I managed to cobble together a system using a RPI and ZWave which seemed to work reliably. I slowly added more features like HVAC and controlling my aquarium top-off pump. Everything worked reliably until I went on vacation and the switch controlling the aquarium top-off pump inexplicably fell off the network. I watched the water level slowly drop from 400 miles away over my webcam feed with no way to fix it. Moral of the story is beware of automation and always consider your failure cases. Building up these sorts of systems is fun and rewarding initially but can become a time sink and a liability if you're not careful.

It's all local unless you want to pay for the cloud service, which just gives you safe remote access to your local home assistant instance, and gives some services like a nice (cloud based) text to speech engine.

Neither are required. You can happily open up DMZ and use whatever TTS engine, yourself.

From working on the environmental sensor side of things, I'd concur. The VOCs will be able to be picked up, but the cross talk will be huge across other VOCs that don't themselves indicate pneumonia. There isn't one VOC, there's thousands. False positives are written all over this. This is the very same approach Theranos went. On a science level, sure, technically possible maybe. You'll even get boolean outputs. But on an engineering and regulatory level, you're in for a world of pain without the spectral tech that is still 2-5 years away before this is worth basing human lives on.
I also have this issue. It’s especially bad on the latest developer betas. I remember in previous iterations of the OS if I killed an app it would be fine but I don’t remember which app. Maybe safari?

Have you seen this list of companies that hire without whiteboard/coding interviews? You might also want to refresh your skillset into something like React and NodeJS which has a lot of jobs these days. After having done so, it is relatively easy to get jobs making into the six figures. Hope this helps.

I did my graduation thesis porting a particle engine from NeXTSTEP into Windows using OpenGL, so you can imagine how long I follow OpenGL.

The state of tooling on Khronos APIs is just terrible, there is always this "community should do it" and naturally they are always a shadow of what commercial API SDKs offer in capabilities.

To the point that I think if Khronos was responsible for the Internet only IP would have been standardized.
To go further, your modifier from stats only increases on even numbers, so most of the time that's what you can expect a stat to be. 8,10,12,14,16,18 for example covers the expected range that every L1 player character is likely to fall in. That also let's you estimate the CR of a monster by seeing if the stats tend toward a negative modifier or a positive one.

To go further, stats have interconnections between them. The physical stats (STR DEX CON) are likely to sit within a few points of each other, same goes for mental stats (INT WIS CHA). The physical section is also likely to be higher because most of the creatures on this list were designed for combat and will have stats reflecting that. The exception is WIS, which is used to determine initiative order in combat and is usually high regardless of creature level.
Why not? If you cut out 15% (OP) of the demand, the price of the supply should fall
I assume they have enough buffers that just-received outputs don't have to be spent on withdrawals for quite awhile, giving them time to subject it to taint analysis.
The problem for a lot of the poor and middle class is their elected officials will not talk to them since they don't donate to them. Take Texas for example it is rare for the Texas Senators to actually talk to normal people anymore.
From one of the links[0]:

> I have two M1 macbook airs, both have this issue. It's only present when macOS resumes after running out of battery. Restarting fixes it, but that's a pain and defeats the whole point of the low battery resume feature.

> Interestingly the cursor isn't the only thing that's slow. I maintain an old OpenGL codebase and rendering performance is degraded until I restart. I've optimized for the M1 so it's definitely not a rosetta issue. It's almost like the gpu gets stuck in a low power mode after shutting down due to low battery.

I can attest to this - also with an M1 Air. When macOS resumes from 0% battery, it's stuck in 30Hz mode. Not just the cursor - everything. I've always restarted to fix.

I'm not even talking about mass-affordable, I just mean being able to buy a home on less than a $600k/yr income. Do wages and housing prices continue to grow at 20% YoY indefinitely in cities like this, eventually pricing out everyone except the ultra high net worth?
Not very detailed article. The main problems for everyone are housing and transportation, which share a solution. One quick hint for the president and his party: a "gas tax holiday" is not that solution.
> They have above average security, but unlike a typical website they can’t just store a one-way hash of passwords that remains secure even when stolen, they have to store the actual password

No, they don’t store directly the actual password, they store it encrypted by a encryption key derived from your master password. A leak of the database won’t reveal any password, as long as your master password stays secure (aka is not "hunter3")
Even with decent insurance, a chronic heath issue can easily result in bankruptcy or having to live paycheck to paycheck, especially if you trip up on any of the landmines like going "out of network" or having a procedure that your insurance decides they don't want to pay for. The system is set up to extract the maximum amount of money from the patient they think they can get away with. And don't even get me started on end-of-life care which is undeniably set up specifically to soak whatever savings the elderly have set aside. I think some people, maybe who are generally healthy and don't have to deal with continuously fighting with their health insurance company and hospitals, think that having health insurance is like a magical talisman that makes all your bills disappear.

Nope, you just misunderstand how sanctions usually work.

In general the "best" algorithm seems dependent on specific usage patterns. A different angle is to study or sample actual usage patterns and automatically adjust the structure/algorithm based on that. The indexes can be readjusted during off/slow hours. (If you don't have off hours, then such a system may not be the best fit.)
> You can write off loan interest.

Which only matters if you somehow go above the crazy high $25k standard deduction.

I am fairly well off and have kids and student loan debt to write off interest on as well, but I've never broke $19k in write offs.

So, unless you have a business or something, the interest write off is kinda useless.
You definitely don't as long as the site supports OpenSearch - the link they supply even mentions this. Maybe the engines that were removed don't support it?
Hacker News is more about having a discussion of, usually, tangentially topics to the link someone has posted. But if you wish to discuss some of Caplan's theories such as "“Conventional education mostly helps students by raising their status,” let's analyze that... (1) the post-secondary education in various countries differs a lot, (2) there are countries where "status" means a full bureaucracy class, other countries where it means ability to get a license such as a veterinary license, other countries where status means certain religious or tribal affiliations, or countries like the U.S. where status means graduating from certain colleges but not others (3) most studies conclude that education increases the macroeconomic productivity of an economy whether or not it raises individual statuses, (4) there are actually advantages to government raising the statuses of more individuals in some countries (such as having a stable middle class that isn't reactionary to politicians), etc.

But, if you read my earlier point, arguing these things through a book and spreadsheets is what think-tanks do, not what scientists do.
Disagree. You are developing to a set of requirements at anyone time. What emerges from (A)TDD is the implementation of those requirements and the design therein.
You could add "at all costs" to any value. That would likely make it less true instead of more bold.
For those not familiar with it, HN's search, provided by Algolia, has syntax for searching posts, comments, by author, within date ranges, and (for posts) above or below thresholds, and more.

It's also accessible as a DDG bang, !hn

I also make heavy use of search. Often searching for dang's comments ;-)
This makes no sense as an excuse. I 100% guarantee that people would be willing to subtitle the videos for them for free if they would make them publicly available.

I would gladly spend a couple hours subtitling a lecture video so that the whole world (including deaf people) could watch it.

It might benefit current deaf students enrolled there too.

It just seems incredibly petty to stop publishing the videos over something like that.

Do they really think it would be that hard to subtitle the videos? Or are they just morally opposed to being required to provide accessibility in general?
Using only a fraction of your assigned IP address space is good and normal.

What is bad is ipv4 doesn't have enough space for everyone. Time to move onto ipv6. I don't know how to make that happen.

PM Lee Hsien Loong’s Speech on the Report of the Committee of Privileges [video]
People I know who are earning 6 figures state three things: 1) student loans, 2) housing and 3) health care. (most of these people are single income, dual income house holds can afford a 3000k mortgage or rent easily if its divided) ...a dark horse has recently entered the race and that being inflation which will pressure everything else.
You're actually reinforcing my point about the change in the industry. Many of the people who came up in tech prior to the mid-90's didn't care of the industry was in boom or bust mode: they just wanted to work in/with tech. I completely understand those who got into it because they saw it purely through a financial lens, but that's a different subset of people in tech.
Dump and save all your logs tied to this, and try to go back as far as possible as it pertains to this user and related infra they used. Start an excel sheet w/ <time>, <action done> and <result> on the headers, and log everything you do as part of figuring out what to do about this, i.e (Feb 17, asked what to do on hackernews, took advice and called a lawyer). Put it in a gdrive. Essentially, establish an audit trail of you doing the right thing once you realized what was going on.

Get a lawyer involved, and then ring up the local cyber crimes unit and be prepared to dump all this evidence. There's a lot of interplay b/t security teams and law enforcement over this stuff so it's not unusual. They'll be happy you reported. Anyone can use a SaaS platform, worst case you might get a rude awakening on the need to do KYC/AML or some sort of user onboarding regulations that you weren't aware you had to follow. This is all about due diligence and if you did it once you knew you had to.

Using intermediary infrastructure to dodge OFAC sanctions or w/e like this is isn't uncommon. The uncommon part is being able to get knowledge on the intermediary infra (your saas), so you're doing a solid by reporting it and providing logs.
When I worked at Mozilla, the official policy was that when the user overrides the default search engine, then that search engine pref is left alone.

(Note that if the user never changed the default, but the default itself changed, for example when Mozilla switched from Google to Yahoo (or vice versa), that was considered to be fair game.)

Whenever this happened while I was there, it was always due to an actual bug. I highly doubt that there is anything nefarious going on here.
So, I've lived in both Dallas and Houston (and Austin). Zoning has nothing to do with the price delta. It has more to do with employment, jobs, income, etc. The market will charge what the customer can afford kind of thing. Same reason RE in Austin is much higher than Houston or Dallas. It's all about tech money and influx of wealth from coastal cities. This is not COVID, it's just Texas - although, the supply shock really threw things out of whack. Years prior, we always did good enough to keep supply coming online at a reasonable price. Shutdown, commodity prices, supply chain, etc destroyed that and prices.

Anecdotal, but Greater Houston differs from DFW as it's more blue collar and DFW tends to be fairly white collar/corp focused. Ironically, Houston also has much more wealth. So what this means is DFW feels like it IS middle class with some lower, some upper, and a few Mark Cuban's. Houston has a whole neighborhood of Mark Cuban's, you see lower income everywhere, and it's kind of unclear where the middle is. In the exurbs? Is exurb A a middle, upper middle, etc. it's not clear where those lines get drawn. Dallas in particular is more segregated on income (which is correlated with.. you know) with the southern part of town being almost exclusively lower income. Houston is more integrated in this regard, there are pockets of wealthy areas surrounded by lower income areas and the folks interact with each other.

I actually don't hear a ton about the big money buying here in Dallas (Zillow, etc). It's just people that sold their west coast house for $2M+ and move here cash rich. I see a lot of mid-lifers so school district & distance to office is the biggest draw for which areas are seeing the largest price gains.
I totally agree with others that costs for childcare and healthcare can easily eat into even large incomes. And for anyone who is making less than six figures and has a family, yes, you have to manage your finances pretty carefully.

However, for many other people, I think a huge part of the problem is consumerism coupled with borrowing. If you are able to be content with what you have or even to downsize, it is much easier to get ahead. And if you avoid all debt except a mortgage, your income will go a lot farther.

People often think about debt as though it is only the interest that matters. But you still need to pay off the principal, if you ever want to be free of it. A $10k credit card debt that you can only apply $500 to per month lingers for a long time.
Yes, definitely an extreme. 120k in rural texas and you can live quite lavishly. That's 4x the median income in texas, probably even more that that for the area you are in if you described it as rural. You'd have to spend quite a bit on stuff to be living paycheck to paycheck on that salary in texas. the median income in texas was 30k in 2019, probably even lower during the time you are talking about. The people making 100k and living paycheck to paycheck are in high cost of living areas, and can probably only get that salary because they are in that area
We are in process of updating the documentation because you're right that it needs more work. For the record, if you're doing everything on your own via Cost Explorer, Storage Lens and processing CUR you may be set. From what we hear, most folks do not want to deal with processing CUR (or even know what it is) and struggle with Cost Explorer.

Vantage automates everything you just mentioned to allow you to make quicker decisions. Here's a screenshot of what we do on a S3 Bucket basis: https://s3.amazonaws.com/assets.vantage.sh/www/s3_example.pn...

We'll profile storage classes and the number of objects, tell you the exact cost of turning on things like intelligent tiering and how much that will cost with specific potential savings. This is all done out of the box, automatically - and we profile List/Describe APIs to always discover newly created S3 Buckets.

From speaking with hundreds of customers, I can also assure you that at a certain scale, billing does not take an hour...there are entire teams built around this at larger companies.
People feel like they _have_ to live in NYC/SF/LA when they make peanuts. If those people moved to the Midwest they'd have much lower CoL and probably still around the same pay. Amazon pays $15/h wherever you are.
Given current leadership, Mozilla might have required search engines to agree to a particular political stance or something of that nature.
I knew a guy ages ago who wrote blog posts and ebooks and gave talks, all about how to "get famous on the internet". He started making them back when no one had ever heard of him.

His Twitter bio even said "I got famous on the internet telling people how to get famous on the internet".
OpenBSD behaves like this patch, the article does a good job of describing what it has taken on the Linux side to get to this point and why IMO. In particular it wasn't until recently there was a reliable way to get quick randomness on nearly any machine to avoid blocking for long periods on boot which things had come to expect avoiding in the previous implementation.
Easy, I just avoid these sort of mind game situations when programming, and I come up with a simple 'wrong' approach that will probably work fine for my purposes anyhow. I don't care if my implementation breaks if I have a newline in my data or whatever, because I already know based on what I am working on that I won't have to worry about a newline in my data or any other weird quirks they bring up in stack overflow comment sections that I have yet to come across in my years of writing code that gets the job done. I don't care if my solution is fractions of a second slower, it's probably already going to be mindbendingly fast compared to the code running on hardware from 40 years ago when people had to be a lot more mindful about selecting the most performant solutions when writing in bash or anything else.
I'm curious what you mean by this. RFC1918 is just an update for earlier RFCs that go back farther in time, like RFC1597. And IBM people are credited on the relevant RFCs.

IBM is basically hoarding a bunch of addresses where there's no technical reason to. I get that they aren't required to do anything about it, but it does seem topically relevant.
Ah well there we go; wow that one is confusing...

edit: ...but interesting!
I think the only advantage someone in this industry has is remote work. Live somewhere that real estate is cheap, but get paid above the average salary.
