I live in a country with free health care. No one is going broke from health costs here. However, people not getting the vaccine are filling up hospital beds which is preventing other people from getting care they need for other things. Therefore, not getting your vaccine is negligent.
And their leadership had shown that they were willing to sacrifice all their civilians (100MM) if it saved their emperor-military system.
Biggest factors in dbt adoption are:

- Automatic DAG generation based on dbt-QL declared dependencies.

- The structure of where (db/schema) and how (table/view/temporary) things are built is defined in a YAML configuration, not the individual SQL statements.

- Testing/documentation baked in.

Sure, you can manage every select statement as its own task, but it becomes pretty infeasible once things scale.

dbt can still be administered alongside all other E and L-type tasks. It's just a Python CLI wrapped around SQL SELECT statements.
My biggest problem with await is it's very non-obvious if you don't know to expect.

Seeing a '?' is obviously a "new thing", so people go look up what it is (in practice, I would expect any Rust programmer to learn '?' really early, but if they somehow miss learning it, they will know to go look it up).

I've seen beginners assume they were "missing the await member". Of course, once you know it's something new you can learn it. I would have prefered something like .!await, just to make clear it's a "new thing".

Regarding the UI comments: I first visited the sited on my phone, and for Android or iPhone users the interface is intuitive, the obvious thing works. But on the desktop it is weird. So this is a reversal of what we used to see, where sites had reduced functionality or were broken for mobile users. I wonder if we will start seeing a lot more of this?

My experience working on movies was lots of time on the road (cumulatively, months of the year) and lots of standing around. This might be different if you were working exclusively in a studio; some roles are certainly more physical than others, of course.
> War can be like a freight train. It's hard to stop on a dime --especially when the population has been completely sucked into the effort through religion (emperor-god) and additional propaganda.

Case in point:

After Japan officially surrendered in August 1945, Japanese holdouts in Southeast Asian countries and Pacific islands that had been part of the Japanese empire continued to fight local police, government forces, and American and British forces stationed to assist the newly formed governments. Many holdouts were discovered in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands over the following decades, with the last verified holdout, Private Teruo Nakamura, surrendering on Morotai Island in Indonesia in December 1974.

Ask HN: Is there a CMS in which you can simply paste images from Word?
I've used a bunch of CMS (Joomla, Drupal, Typo3, WordPress). I'm looking for a CMS that would:

1. Keep formatting when doing copy/paste from MS Word
2. Uploads images from that Word document into the CMS so that they don't need to be uploaded individually

I don't know if such images would then end up as BLOBs inside database or they would end up as files on filesystem.

Does such CMS exist?
> EFS can scale to levels beyond what EBS is capable.

While technically true, the gap isn't large and it has enormous caveats. EFS can scale to a "whopping" 5x the aggregate throughput of a single gp3 EBS volume (5GB/sec EFS vs. 1GB/sec gp3). It requires at least 10 clients to reach that aggregate throughput. It barely beats a single io2 Block Express EBS volume (5GB/sec EFS vs. 4GB/sec io2 BE), and the io2 Block Express volume can do it with a single client. Reaching that 5GB/sec with EFS costs $30,000/month for either 100TB of data or 5GB/sec in provisioned bandwidth. Good luck!
> I am not the only one who believes that in the long term the atomic bombs saved millions of Japanese lives.

You're not the only one, but most of the people who believe like you are Americans. Outside the US the prevalent view is pretty much against those atomic bombings; had the US lost the war, the people who ordered those bombings would have been found guilty of war crimes and hanged.

My own subjective opinion is that the US needs this narrative of "but we ended up saving lives", because anything else would run contrary to their own self image of "we are always the good guys".

Consequently, alternative considerations like that the bombings were a show of force with the Soviet Union as the target audience tend to get downplayed in the US, because it's harder to think of oneself as the good guy when you killed hundreds of thousands of civilians in one country in order to put fear into the leadership of another, unrelated country.
They agreed to unconditional surrender and then got to keep the Emperor. Which makes one wonder if the US had actually offered surrender terms that included keeping the Emperor maybe Japan would have surrendered. Instead they just demanded unconditional surrender.

> It's only taught as a series of facts to remember if you're not involved in practical application.. AKA actually playing music.

First, no. I went hard into music in my early life, I both learned basic piano and intermediate saxophone, and I went through the full suite of band/orchestra/jazz/soloing, to the point where I was a fairly decent-ish musician. It's not until later that people get taught this stuff in my experience, I struggled with any practical connection to music theory probably until late middle-school.

But second, what you're describing is exactly why the article is useful; because the people who are trying to get into music haven't played an instrument for so long that they can improvise on it and start to put together intuitively that certain ratios or key signatures or whatever sound good.

What happens with people who are taught to play instruments is that they spend a lot of time honing those instincts by playing the instrument, but at the same time, what they're playing is constantly attached to this notation so that when they intuitively connect that minor/major/augmented chords sound good or bad in different situations, they simultaneously connect them to the notation as a way of expressing those concepts.

People who don't have formal instruction don't go through that process the same way. They might be composing music without ever thinking about the notation. And when they go to seek out instruction or learn more about techniques, they don't have a bridge to connect their intuitions about what does and doesn't sound good with the notation, everyone just expects them to find the notation intuitive.

I had a lot of formal instruction on playing jazz. A lot of it was about honing intuition, listening to jazz, replaying other famous improve tracks, improving over those tracks, memorizing licks. But that intuition and practical experience was also coupled with being able to break down and describe what those other musicians were doing. That required a shared notation that I could understand, it required being able to understand what an instructor meant when they talked about why certain riffs worked or common ways to resolve a run of notes if I got lost in the middle of an improv solo and didn't what to do next. But I could follow that instruction because I knew the notation and I had a connection between my practical experience of how music sounds and the formal notation about key signatures and chords and crud.

A lot of people don't have that because they haven't spent X years learning to read sheet music. Articles like this are helpful for them.

Maybe you should try to look further than yourself. Miners are getting paid in crypto, crypto exchanges are getting paid in crypto. It just has to start somewhere. Investors with crypto staking are getting paid in crypto, or hodlers see their assets increase in value.

ME/CFS is a chronic condition characterized by debilitating fatigue and, specifically, post-exertional malaise. Patients who suffer from ME/CFS will have very debilitating negative reactions to any exertion past a certain threshold. The negative reaction can be delayed by 24 hours in some and it can be severe enough to make jobs or daily activities anywhere from difficult to nearly impossible.

Importantly, the delayed worsening can clearly be measured by light exercise testing. It isn’t the same as normal post-exercise recovery or soreness. It’s far worse and can even be triggered by strenuous mental activity (perhaps energy expenditure in general).

For many, it has a distinct viral trigger. They can be fine and healthy one week, then become chronic CFS sufferers after an infection with a number of notable viruses (EBV is common).

Sound familiar? It has a lot of parallels to “Long COVID”, but it just never got the same attention because it’s not attached to a global pandemic in the 24/7 news cycle.

We really have to get more money into such prizes. The catering budget at CERN might cost more. Wordle just sold for more than a million. A tweet from some random influencer can cost a million. I read once that the human race spent more on ringtones in the 2000s than it did on fusion research. We need to better prioritize.
The COVID vaccine is not the same as other vaccines. One can have hesitancy towards the COVID and other mRNA vaccines and go get the flu shot the same day. If you want to solve the hesitancy problem you must recognize this first, otherwise you’ll be stuck in a loop like you are now, demanding they’re safe just like every other vaccine in history.
I dimly recall receiving a call from RMS one Saturday when I must have been in high school. I was working (on my own) on porting the ETH Modula-2 compiler from VAX/VMS to a NS32032 based "co-processor" board that plugged into the pc isa bus (an early hardware design from Trevor Marshall of YARC Systems). I think RMS asked if I would port the compiler to GNU, but alas I told him I knew nothing about Unix back then. The NS32032 went no where, but my compiler porting effort got me my first job with an interesting (to me) startup!
Testing Raspberry Pi's New Network Install Feature
It depends. A t2.nano has 512mb of memory. If you are using Go or something like that you could go much lower but any runtime environment such as ruby/python/node are going to want a minimum of a few hundred meg. If you are using the JVM you most definitely are going to want an instance with much more memory.

At the end of the day your application decides how much memory it wants and the sysadmin/SRE/devops person just ensures it has enough so it doesn't crash.

If you are hosting your own workloads and those workloads only need tens of megs of ram than you can pack as much as your hypervisor can handle.

Alfred talks about booting 110,000 vms on one host before memory exhaustion:

I think it might be time to stop using Product Hunt for me. I find that I reliably get email spam after posting projects there. Along with the spam, there's usually little to no useful feedback.
Yeah but most engineers shoot to short or take to long on automating that thing. Most useful automation takes large standards bodies and decades of coordination. When we are placed in profitable companies it's easier to produced more value than you consume, but I'm not sure making another pet project that I give up halfway through necessarily is. However, I am seeing some evidence if you do build out beginnings in certain fields the knowledge and understanding of that fog of war on the experimental mediums. Think vr programming, the tooling is not great, maybe just diving in there long enough to be brought into a vc back company building out that tooling.

OP, Have you tried getting to some conferences and talking to people, seeing if you can somehow further their goals. Sometimes passion is found in enabling and enriching others with more pointed goals.
I was thinking about the german Versammlungsgesetz and requirements to stay identifiable while operating dangerous machinery in public ("driving"), but apparently I was completely wrong about their age (actually late 20th and late 2010s, I was assuming "possibly leftover from some reich"). Still, those two were not motivated at all by rejection of imported culture, but in terms of timing they might very well have been.

A separate English peace would have made a lot of sense.

Hitler had no interest in expanding westward. His plan was a great German empire where the Volga would be what the Mississippi is in the US. If France & Britain had not attacked, Germany would very likely have left them alone.

In the east, it was a fight to the death, and both sides knew it. If the Russians surrendered, they faced extinction.
A side project IS very risky if you expect it to make money directly.

If you want it to advertise your skills however, in my experience it works well.

Rather than climb a corporate ladder, you can try yourself at some interviews and see if you get a better deal elsewhere.

Typically, larger companies won't offer a raise by themselves, and you have to show them a counteroffer for them to listen.

But you can also take the counteroffer if they don't update your pay.

The core group of organizers have clearly stated that their goal is to overthrow the Canadian government: https://web.archive.org/web/20220201001209/https://canada-un...

It is suspected that the Ottawa occupation sites also harbor similar elements.

"Canadian truckers" have been taken for a ride, it's been quite clear after the first week that truckers have very little to do with this beyond being a cover story. Canadian Trucking Association has publicly disavowed this, 90% of our truckers are vaccinated and at work.

To be clear, there were no rights being infringed by the various health measures. There were privileges being denied, most definitely. Some people confuse the two. Of course now the situation has evolved past that, but this has been an extremely volatile three weeks and Canadian democracy is at stake here.
Agda is nice and this tutorial is actually pretty great imho. I, for some reason, cannot stand when languages are not self hosting (that's my bug though; i'm not saying it's better or worse in general), so for me Idris 2 won out as dependently typed language I use for some proof work.

When you do want to focus time on a side project what's been most effective for me is to mitigate that risk by using stable income from a corporate job to establish savings. Then use that savings to take some time off to focus on a side project.
The Stripe.com example is widely misunderstood, even by the person who did it.

It doesn’t matter that it was a name collision with Stripe the payment processor. EVs were not designed to resolve name collisions. They were not even intended to attest that a business is legitimate.

What matters is that Ian had to register a company to get that EV. Which means that if he had actually tried to scam people with it, the police would have a nice paper trail back to him.

The paper trail is the deterrent. All the EV does is attest to the existence of a paper trail.

Name collisions are not a problem in general. There are other people in the U.S with the same first and last name as me. There are thousands of restaurants called “McDonalds” that all look the same even though they are owned by different companies.

It’s a solved problem. It is solved with legal documentation, like taxpayer ID numbers, articles of incorporation and payment records. The sole purpose of EV and OV certs is to cryptographically connect your browser to those.

Because receiving the genes is only half the equation.

The other half is passing them on. Having "good" genes makes it more likely to be considered an attractive mate to a larger percentage of potential mates. And just being seen as an attractive mate can positively effect one's status as well as the implicit biases of others.
> JS and TS brought so much happiness to me for years. But I found it extremely difficult to constantly have to "decide" between X and Y.

At least for me it was never a decision once I found TS, TS always got chosen. My spicy opinion in the JS space is that Typescript is better in every single way over Javascript, it is a superior language. Typescript IMO should be merged into Javascript, how anyone develops with just JS anymore (especially larger projects) baffles me.

I think their point is more that in many cases, you can trace the chain of direct influence to someone with formal training, even if the musicians themselves don't have it.

Obviously, there are also plenty of artists who only have this influence indirectly, through other artists that inspire them. Or in the case of hip hop and electronic, through sampling. So I think their point was overstated.

All of these managers that allow automatic updates or run off some cloud loaded executable (which is all of them essentially) can re-encrypt all your data to another arbitrary key on next unlock with some code changes. Those code changes could be pushed/loaded for specific customers only pretty easily.

It’s not ‘all my passwords stored in their database unencrypted’ easy to compromise, but it’s also not protection against a motivated agency with jurisdiction said service has to respect, and it’s also not solid protection against any state level actor if they really care/want to spend resources targeting someone.

That said, it’s all about threat assessment and trade offs. Especially for a business, what are the consequences if the NSA does x, or China does y?

For 99% of businesses? Nothing except some irritation if you find out. Same as with most things.

If someone is an activist going after those agencies/gov’ts? Probably quite severe consequences.
