I know good engineers who started quite late in life.

My experience matches yours exactly. Almost all of the good engineers that started late in life in my experience are just plain extremely smart and would excel at anything they did.

One friend that comes to mind wrote his PhD thesis in chemical engineering and then switched to being a software engineer. He is too motivated and too smart to fail at it even though he doesn't have what I consider that intrinsic spark that led him pursue computers at an early age.
Pain when using Apple pay when wearing a mask though. (I know about the Apple watch addition to the solution).

Even without masks I preferred touch ID, you're advertising your phone more when you're staring at it, was always more seamless with touch ID.
Please note that the Canadian government has, in the past, on multiple occasions [0], used agents provocateurs to falsely smear a protest movement by planting their own agents who attempt to inflame a situation. For example, trying to turn peaceful protests violent.

To my knowledge, there was a singular incident of Nazi flag on the very first day of a 25 day protest. There is also some evidence that it may have actually been the PM's personal photographer who took the photos of the Nazi flag [1].

It is also a curious fact that this flag incident took place at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier, a $300/night luxury hotel in the heart of Ottawa, known for hosting foreign dignitaries and heads of state, that now curiously houses a large contingent of police from all over Canada [2]. It seems suspect to think that truckers and racists would choose such an iconic and expensive venue to display this symbol of hate.

Given that most of us never expected the severe curtailing of civil liberties by a liberal democracy such as Canada, I think it is prudent for us all to be skeptical about the facts on the ground in this incident as it almost appear engineered to sow the seeds of hate against the protesters in this case.

Anything related to the trans row will get you banned from Twitter. Obviously it's quite hard to give examples, as you know there not in Twitter anymore.

This lady is quite famous in the UK and is banned from Twitter for her not so extreme views:

Almost like the same people who are working to ban books across the country aren't all that into Free Speech.
I think that undefined at the end is not related to my code - it's there before those console logs appear and they're appended to the start of this table.

In any case I get the same result locally: I suspected doc2.cards would have length: 2, but it's only 1.

I couldn't explain why so I rolled my own conflict-resolution scheme that fit my particular use case. It's primitive and doesn't actually give any guarantees, but gets the job done.
It's not even correct. It's much more efficient to use a heat pump.

Can machine-learning models overcome biased datasets?
This is what I follow, except a lot slower with the weight increases. I even think staying on empty barbell is enough to simply fix posture.

When I just started lifting, I would be flopped over on my desk exhausted. This ironically made my problems worse.

But now I sit much better without thinking. There is muscle to support my back and head.
In college I was surrounded by female friends that shared the same interests as myself. However, the only thing I really cared about was attractiveness. I'm not sure when this switched for me exactly but I'm happy it did.
No particular reason, I just prefer to run the same OS on each of my devices. The FM radio, cameras, accelerometers, GPS/GLONASS, etc. works, never tried the fingerprint sensor or gestures.
Absolutely. People don't care about this stuff and honestly, I'm not expecting them to, because I don't care about much of the world either. But I do care about this issue and so, I'd like better regulation so that the individuals' privacy is better protected, with the same level of them not caring.
It's mainly confined to industry specific news sources but alternative asset data firms like Preqin definitely report on this info. And it makes sense that this info would be out there for two reasons: 1. Institutional investors, like CPPIB, who still invest in alternatives need a way to objectively compare funds and 2. VCs and PE, just like HF, both under-perform the markets outside a small set of firms that return genuine alpha consistently - just like hedge funds.
Before I learnt what it really means I always imagined it as a blowtorch heating things up, which sort of fits the original but obviously has a much wider scope.
So maybe GP has the same idea I had.
I say this all the time when people as questions like these:

I have no affiliation, it's just a great short read that will answer your questions.
It's just not Airbnb, Ronin Wallet also does this. It's definitely a waste of time.
A viable YouTube competitor, including its social and recommendation features, but without the ad-based business model making it so... fraught. I am happy with (and pay for) YouTube, but I'd love competition in this space.
I know this is good advice, but it is the thing that holds me back the most. I live a simple life and I literally don't have anything I would pay for that I could also conceivably build myself (any ideas I have tend more towards hardware than software).
It sounds awful to me, too, but in casual conversations with medical professionals who have been through it (and in some cases while they were going through it) they very frequently defend the process. It doesn’t sound like Stockholm Syndrome or gate-keeping justifications either. They basically say that it’s the best way to see/learn the full progression of a case. Essentially it comes down to charts and records can only communicate so much and actually being there is how the real learning happens. I don’t know if I buy it, but I do know one thing — systems like this usually carry really value, or they wouldn’t be so persistent.
You dont get life before kids back when kids grow. Too many years passed in the meantime. The world is not the same. You are older and a lot of activities you have done before are harder. The former friends moved on and you have to build new ones.
It's not a terrible idea, and personally, I believe we should be doing more proactive reach-out when events like this are happening. Thing like text messages, push notifications, and big red scary banners on the home pages of unrelated products.

I'll file a Feature Request internally, but given the scope I can't imagine things will be too quick.

If you rewrite what was said as "most people can become top 5% at the thing" it's obviously not possible.

It's more a "most people won't even try, but you should try."
For whatever reason, I've always had a "conserve things that are limited in quantity" mentality. As a kid, I'd never use stickers because they could only be used once. I'll keep them in their sheets and never-used. As an adult, when I have limited vacation time, I feel compelled to save it for when it really counts and am reluctant to spend it. As a result, I end up taking the minimum amount required to avoid losing anything due to exceeding rollover limits.

When I had a role with unlimited PTO, it was so amazingly liberating. Whenever I wanted to take a week or a day, I took it. Keeping up with work was no problem and I planned for longer absences. In the two years at that job, I took 5-6 weeks per year, split evenly between week-long vacations and random days off.

It's a great perk with two very important caveats: a) the company actually believes in it and b) you take advantage of it
The depreciation of mining equipment is a third variable, and it is rather significant at this point in time.

As an example, the Antminer S19 Pro retails for $8-10k and is rated at 3250 W. Running it 24/7/365 would consume 113.88 MWh of electricity over a four-year lifespan. At average marginal hydro power rates ($0.05) this would cost $5,694 while at typical residential rates it would roughly double to $11,388.
Every time someone does one of these, the cost-benefit comes out so far ahead for cycling infrastructure it's not funny. The HS2 cycle paths cost-benefit analysis came out five times better than HS2 itself, despite the cost-benefit ratio for the hs2 cycle paths being rubbish for cycle infrastructure (most of HS2 is in less populated areas).

If you're serious about analysis then you could start by [reading this UK government report](https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/...) and it's references.

Or a study on the [danish cycling infrastructure investment](https://cyclingsolutions.info/cost-benefit-of-cycling-infras...)

> whether some kind of funding-by-the-users is possible (like happens for other vehicles: fuel duty, road tax, etc.)

Revenues from both go into the same general taxation pot, they're not reserved for funding roads. Incidentally, Tesla and other e-cars pay neither.
> and also with better security, and portability.

What security?

> What problems does the Ethereum Virtual Machine solve, as far as turning decentralized network code into a server/computer?

Given that the eth VM uses a fraction of a single percentage of its processing power to run smart contracts (like, 0.00000001%), and the rest in redundantly verifying those transactions, it's not solving any problem of decentralised processing in a useful way.
Uh. Because the parent said that kubernetes and VMs are different because "with VMs you have to configure things [..] like networking performance".

But you configure the exact same things as with VMs and kubernetes.

Network performance (as per OP) is not configurable on either.

You just accept whatever accidental default you happen to have, it's not a conscious decision people are making, and it's an awkward assumption to say that you have to think about it.

Because if you have to think about it: that doesn't go away with kubernetes anyway: if anything it probably gets worse.
It depends. I got in the habit of just saying I’m from New York instead of the US. Seems like everyone wants a friend in NYC to fulfill their goal of going there someday for a trip and having a cool local connection.
Sorry, I am not sure when heterodox is a good thing or bad thing.
Maybe you could qualify that for me.

Well Gmail is kinda stupid. I mean they are reading your emails.
Yeah. I cannot believe that the "describe things to the computer in English" fantasy exists in 2022. At least from folks within the industry; it makes sense for laypeople to ponder it.
Same here. CGNAT for years. I was into running home servers at some point, where I called my ISP and they kindly put me into a different pool where the IP is NOT static but a real IP (non-CGNAT).

Actually now looking back, unless I need to host something at home (which is a hobby than a need) I find CGNAT to be actually safer while still using IP addresses efficiently.

I'd still want to see real v6 adoption though.
The SAT and college admissions; it's time for solutions
I have a wife who is a licensed nurse, and I was just blown away when I heard how the interview process goes for medical professionals. What, they trust your credentials at face value? You don't have to do procedures live in front of the interviewers? The interview is mostly _them_ trying to get you to work there?

What a concept.
IMO this kind of question will get "faster horse" kind of responses, not "a car" kind of responses (context: https://www.inc.com/michael-graber/people-would-have-asked-f...)

Don't focus on price. Don't focus on other people's ideas. The word "need" is overloaded; too many people will tell you the solution they think they need and not the emotional need itself that is not being met by a solution. Instead, try to understand how other people are suffering, and only then try to come up with ideas for how to alleviate their suffering.
Sometimes things can come naturally. In my poly prehistory I once wanted badly to go on a date with a cute girl who worked in an office next to mine, told my wife, and she said I should go for it.

Other times things don't go naturally and then is why we need "toolboxes" for relationships, no matter what kind.

For me I have been exploring my emotions and my ability to transmit emotions to other people. I plant feelings like seeds, kindle them into a roaring fire, can compress them into a ball and they hit someone like a lightning bolt. It's a power that brings responsibility because you can just easily if not more easily hurt somebody that way as opposed to draw them in.

There is a structure to falling in love and it's better to develop it than to be pushed around by randomness. Not a lot of people talk about it for a few reasons:

(1) The gap between desperation and being overcommitted is small
(2) Love is a dangerous game. Pickup isn't because people in casual situations wall off their feelings but no matter how much you expel hostility, sadistic tendencies and are sensitive to avoid accidental slights and interruptions of mirroring it's inevitable that you're going to hurt anyone who becomes attached to you because you're either going to break up or "death will do you part"
>new things are discovered almost every month - new game glitches, mechanics

Is there a good place to follow these discoveries? The site you linked seems to mainly just be mods, and when I search for glitch discussion I mostly just find generic wiki's listing the same old glitches known for decades.
Yes, I would not want another person to have the childhood I did (although I understand that many, many people around the world have much worse childhoods, including my parents). It did put stress on my parents, of course, but my main motivation is in the interests of the child(ren). Which I guess is also to not have stressed out parents.

I also think I was lucky to have had the life trajectory I did, partly due to just being good at school. My parents never taught me English (and we still do not speak English to each other), but I somehow never had a problem being successful in US schools. I doubt that is the case for many other kids in similar positions.

I was also lucky that I had access to online forums and educated adults to advise me on what choices to make, since my parents were not able to help me. I do not think I would have had a fraction of the success were it not for the internet giving me the ability to communicate with educated people familiar with how things work in the US.
> There should be a "good Android" option that costs less than an iPhone for people that would pay a little more money for less garbage.

There is, actually: Android One. E.g. Nokia makes phones that have minimal crapware preinstalled.

You will still have to deal with Google's own crap... like the retarded Assistant that just won't fucking die. Even with absolutely every setting in every google settings page in every google app explicitly disabling the Assistant, if you dare speak words resembling "ok google" it will still "helpfully" pop up asking if you'd like to enable it. And sometimes spontaneously. While you're typing, hoping you'll fat-finger "yes please".
I'd be pretty surprised if the creator of git couldn't get a PR to git approved, honestly.
Good point, I'll update it, thanks!
This is a good one. Will remember it for the next project

I didn't miss the headphone jack that seemed to be such a flashpoint, and that's after over a decade of having a cord from ears down into my pocket. Honestly I'm kind of thankful to Apple for pushing me to bluetooth headsets - they had come a long way since the one-eared cyborg-wannabe device of the mid 00's.

That is to say I try not to be too much of a curmudgeon (not always successfully), but I still miss TouchID. I like the intentionality of putting my finger on the scanner to unlock rather than waving a phone in front of my face and making sure I've got the right distance and angle.

It doesn't help that mask wearing became common just after FaceID took over. So yes, I miss it too.
Also hackable and some other -able words were not accepted.

This is really nice tip.

AFAIK, sync works on Linux only since it needs $ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT. The problem is that I develop on a Windows machine (vscode with ssh extension) and my source code is on remote Linux machines (in premises), dedicated to building AOSP. Since I build at least for another 5 platforms, my working PC cannot cope with the current (and future) workload/space, so I asked to move all the source to dedicated hardware for building. Perhaps I can do it with ADB through Wifi...

I always thought sync worked with frameworks or packages, but since you mentioned "native" I guess it will also sync vendor stuff?
Damn, how many gems exist out there?
Which reminds me of a book once linked here on HN[0], The Mom Test[1]. Although (as far as I remember) not directly treats about this exact thing (or maybe it does?), it brings a lot of other very interesting points in general topic of coming up with the new business idea. I can definitely recommend, pure knowledge without fluff.

I only answered the question why it is different with kubernetes.

I dont have anything against VMs. Feel free to click yourself a VM on any cloud provider, use it however you like.

K8s abstracts VMs away and i have and had real issues with maintaining VMs. Docker filling up the node with logs. Unable to upgrade the BaseOS due to python dependencies. Managing the same VM stack through ansible and everything ansible or chef brings to the table.

There have been plenty of self healing mechanism in place which do solve unfortunate issues. Memory? The service restarted, was offline for 3 minutes and is now working again. Node disk full? Pods get scheduled away, new node comes up, done. Update/upgrade of nodes? Nodepool does it for me.

For me, k8s has 2 real issues like memory (swap support is wip finally!) and stateful workloads like a database. But the concept of an operator shows a bright future.

k8s also does one thing very nice: It enforces certain aspects which are a pain in the ass later. That VM which wasn't updated for years and run just fine? Now there is an issue and it needs to be fixed asap. But now the debian repositories are no longer available. I have to fix apt srce list first, then i need to fix dependencies and then i need to restart it.

It’s a catch 22 as you could potentially be solving a problem that someone doesn’t even know they have.

The journey of identifying a shortcoming and attempting to address it is a critical part of the product journey.

If you don’t understand what you are solving chances are you won’t be the best at it.
I'd pay $10/month for a news website that didn't cram a ton of ads and tracking into every page, covered a bit of everything, and was genuinely well-balanced. I don't particularly mind if it was left- or right-leaning in each article so long as it averaged out to be close to the centre overall.

I actually think it's a pretty good potential application for a GPT-3 style prose-generating AI - I'd happily accept something that was 'readable' (for GPT-3 levels of readable) without human bias, editorialization, and sensationalization. The hard part is getting unbiased facts to turn into articles.
What? In medicine it’s called “rounds” and it happens every shift.
> they never had any affairs (unlike their own parents...), and after he passed away she immediately fell into a long depression, barely a year later she was gone too

To be honest, that is rather low bar for happy relationship. It think that maybe you should believe more what they said about their own happiness then project happiness onto them when no one is looking.
> A new social media that says, "we're not removing anything unless it's clearly illegal or we get a court order to do so" is a reasonable pitch in my mind.

Doesn't this already exist in the form of Gab? I think they don't remove content except NSFW/pronography, doxing, and violations of US law.
I'm curious about this. What if you could pay for a stack overflow bounty? I'm sure there's folks who would happily earn a side hustle answering questions there at $50-$100/ea
Later down the page, Wolfram issues a challenge: "It’s been years now, and I’d really like to see SMP run again. So here’s a challenge. This is the source for a C program encrypted like the SMP source code..."

Just wanted to call this out in case anyone wanted to try decrypting it :).
Elon Musk is right. Web3 is BS
> Either imposter syndrome kicks in and they don't want to look stupid in front of their peers

This to a T. An awful lot of stuff coulda gotten crushed, quickly, if I'd just asked for help ASAP instead of siting on it and feeling dumb.
By demonstrating that the product you're maintaining indeed still works?
Exactly. Look at Venice, which was a quaint little town nobody had ever heard of until Airbnb came long. As you correctly point out, without Airbnb excessive tourism wouldn't exist.

It's so nice that I've been able to find a single villain to blame this problem on instead of talking about the broader housing crisis that leads to this, which is completely the fault of governments to address housing shortages due to influence from NIMBYs and corporations.

As further proof you're correct, look at Miami Beach. It's banned Airbnbs and short term rentals, and now housing there is incredibly affordable and not the most expensive in Florida.
As others have said, replacing battery is fairly straightforward for 6s, I did it a couple times on mine until replacing a few months back. Look for the higher capacity batteries, I had luck with Amazon. Will take you probably 30 mins to switch out.

Alternatively - I just upgraded to an iPhone SE which seems like essentially the same phone as 6s but a little faster/smoother. Fits my minimalist needs which sound similar to yours. Dealing with the Android crapware sounds a lot less fun to me.
It reminds me of a thread the other week about data protections in france. People were complaining about not being able to have a one size fits all solution for all jurisdictions (and that that one size should have US style limited data protections).

The idea that stuck with me from it is that we’ve been spoiled as devs by the early low hanging fruit version of the internet. The MVPs were enough better than non-digital incumbents that we could just export california everywhere.
JS wasn't sufficient, there, so we chose Go (Golang)
Thank you, think you’re right. I emailed today and will call an immigration lawyer to confirm tomorrow. The issue is it’s a huge gray area with people arguing both sides and I only saw the one when I came over. Lesson learnt :)
Which is a very hacky way. I wouldn't rely on it for anything serious as it might break at any time.
