skysight-inc/HackerNews huggingface dataset:
https://github.com/backtrace-labs/verneuil/ is one way to address the diffing / read replica part of the problem. I believe it's compatible with gossipping: most of the data is in small content-addressed chunks, with small manifests that tell clients what chunks to fetch and how to reassemble them to recreate a sqlite database. There's already client-side caching to persistent storage, and chunks can be fetched on demand.

Sharing replication data P2P, while retaining the simplicity of a single authoritative writer per database, is explicitly part of the project's long-term goals!
> Yes, peacefully. A large fraction of the hundreds of thousands who supported these truckers have, themselves, been blocked from employment, international travel, etc., because they refused an experimental medical treatment.

Except Cov19 Vaccines are in fact not an experimental medical treatment. That aside though, whether someone peacefully blocks the government from doing its job or not doesn't really matter. If they block the government from doing it's job then it is only fair for the government to try and remove that blockade.

If someone was blocking ambulances from going to emergencies then i wouldn't care if they do it peacefully or not.

Workday is my 800 pound scraping gorilla.

Never heard of Pyppeteer.
My original question is:

>How do you solve problems arising from bad actors without an object representing the user?

In response to the argument that user objects are no longer needed, even for something like virtual meetings. The scenario of zoombombing isn't something "I came up with", it's a real life scenario that having a user object helps prevent bad actors with.

In the event of a user sharing their account, you would know who it was and be able to hold the bad actor accountable, as opposed to a meeting URL being shared. I think the better question is why you are so hostile to the idea of user accounts having utility.
It's unlikely that they will engage nuclear weapon if the west intervene in Ukraine.
Doesn't the HW have something to do with the responsiveness? Hasn't that been a significant issue with eInk devices in the past, or is that resolved now?

In any case, the atrocities being committed in Ukraine have finally convinced me it is long past time to divest myself from Chinese slaveware. I have nothing but kindness for the people of Russia and China but will no longer voluntarily support companies in those countries with my business.
I sorta agree with you but only because it's an http site which allows easy MITM attacks . Otherwise, you're going to be downloading a shell script and executing it. You are trusting your system to a blind executable either way. Same with using pip, choco, rpm, brew, dnf, etc.
I would actually say that this is one of the things that TRE helped me with.

After a couple of weeks it had basically reprogrammed my body and my brain's response to not eating. I do still get hungry, but I don't have sugar crashes and being hungry doesn't register in the same way. I find it easier to go to bed hungry now than I would in the past. A few months ago I would find it hard to get to sleep if I hadn't eaten in the evening, now it's the other way round.
Even if it's from within Russia it doesn't tell you if it's ordered by the government. Not every Anonymous hack is orchestrated by the US government, the same can happen inside Russia.

Unless someone screws up we will probably never know for certain.
> unless you set the encryption cylinders to HIT and the decryption to LER, of course...

That doesn't align with my understanding of Enigma's operation or how it was broken.

Enigma is a substitution cipher. There are no "encryption" and "decryption" cylinders. There are just rotors. The rotors start in a known configuration according to a calendar distributed out-of-band. Decrypting a message is the same as encrypting it, but both the encrypting and decrypting machine have to start in the same state.

Enigma was broken in part using frequency analysis (captured machines and codebooks helped). Weather reports had a similar structure and (some?) messages ended with "HH". I don't believe operators in the field got lazy with rotor settings, since that would require coordinated laziness.

Enigma was state-of-the-art but still flawed. Substitution ciphers are fundamentally susceptible to frequency analysis. It would have been broken even without capturing machines and codebooks and even if the Germans had minimized structure in their messages.

>The reason we have to have laws about such things is that paying the bribe is always beneficial to the individual company. Refusing to pay bribes only helps if every company refuses to pay the bribe.

That's great in theory and that was the intent of the people who wrote foreign bribery laws but it never works out this way. What happens in practice is that American companies leave the country and companies from places like Russia and China who are willing to pay get the business. Or it goes to local companies who also still pay.

>If you can't do business without bribing someone, that's like not being able to do business without using slaves; what you should do is stop doing business, not start using slaves.

Except paying the bribes doesn't cost anyone except the company paying them. You've got it reversed here: the company paying the bribes is often the victim. Do you think Telia really wanted to pay $320 million to the Uzbek president's daughter? They probably would rather have had Uzbekistan have a telecom licensing system that actually worked like the FCC.
While I agree with coordinating and I don't think google should take it down based on a single message. I can personally vouch for @dzehv, I know him and know he is in Ukraine actively on the cause. I suggested he make this post since I didn't know anyone at google to directly relay it.
It should be pretty clear that the post is about a specific definition of terrorism and not my opinion on their practices, the only thing being warped is the definition. If its not clear, compartmentalize it and reapply everything said until it is clear.
As a simplified example, if I write 1000 lines of code and you write 1000 lines of code. We should have the same rating if that's the metric used. There shouldn't be any bias there. It only introduces bias when the manager feel your code is better than mine, etc.

Now the objective measure itself might have some sort of bias, but at least the rules are set and you're not getting screwed over based on someone's feelings. You can argue metrics, you can't argue your managers feelings.
This is not an appropriate use of ML, at least not if it's going to be relied on for anything. I'd encourage anyone who knows how to do this to not do it
And which of these involved sanctions?

Note that the 1905 revolution in particular happened because of a lost war. So it reiterates my main point: the goal should be to defeat Russia militarily in Ukraine, because that's the only thing that will save the latter.
I'm currently using libssh (not libssh2) in a project and I'm quite happy with it. The API is pretty nice and it behaves pretty much exactly like OpenSSH by default.
I wonder if it's a violation of Google's ToS to use their services to commit war crimes?
Another thing about being rejected from a job is that you may have made a good impression but were not a good fit for the role you interviewed for. When a better-fitted role comes up, the company might ask you to come back and interview for that one.

If you had never tried, the company wouldn’t know about you and this kind of reconsideration wouldn’t happen. So at least rejection gets you on their radar.

Corporate relocation offers to UKR aerospace engineers considered theft
I got a proposal last year from a vendor where I wasn't allowed to copy or download the text. They were one of a handful of proposals I got, so since I wasn't able to share they're stuff with other decision makers they put themselves out of the running. We do take steps ourselves ourselves for communicating sensitive data, but my point is that there can be costs to overusing systems like this.
No one cares about USD-denominated wealth either. People care about real wealth, which is a physical quantity. USD wins here because its volatility is much lower. But it's also nonzero. I'm shopping for a car this month, and I'll decide whether to borrow or pay cash by comparing the expected real cost of the loan vs the expected real return on cash.

Regarding the apple example, the customer and grocer do not disagree on the value of apples. The trade takes place because of the marginal value of apples and the pre-existing difference in apple inventories between the parties.
Essential for any development occurring on a Mac IMO. I upgraded from a fully specced out 16inch to a base model M1 with the 32GB upgrade (a machine roughly half the price I think) and it's night and day. I can use Docker now without Slack getting laggy.
The flexibility of time restrictions is one of the things I really like, I can fit it in around my daily schedule.
"Discussing real solutions" sounds about as substantial a suggestion as "throw your hands up and say there's nothing more we can do". People are already talking. It's not suggesting anything more concrete than what's already being done in this conversation.
So your suggestion is to just…. Talk about something else?

Cool, can’t wait to see the thread you start discussing these important things.
The Russian government pretty much turns a blind eye to their hackers as long as they don't target Russia
I’ve seen people try that as well - sometimes they didn’t care, sometimes they did care and weren’t sold the car.

In no case was the dealership forced to accept a deal they didn’t agree with, so I wouldn’t put any stock in the “in writing” part.
It could also be they are attempting to force google to remove the service entirely for Ukraine.
> Unlike say house. Which might retain the same value to me even if its market dollar value doubled overnight.

I think this needs to be thought carefully. A house, because it's saleable, represents an opportunity cost. If the market value doubles overnight, a rational actor should re-evaluate whether it is still the best course to continue to live in it, rather than sell it.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if they are going to coordinate attacks somehow anyway, isn't it actually better for them to use Google Maps tags so that the public knows where is being targeted next and evacuate?
I mean really neither is crypto at this point. When was the last time you saw people promoting crypto as a thing you use to actually buy arbitrary things instead as asset you can turn into $LOCAL_CURRENCY?

Crypto projects all seem to be using $COIN as a token you must purchase in order to access some resource on the network (Gas/Storage) or as a currency swap / investment (Bitcoin).

Edit to everyone downvoting but not commenting -- name one. Name a crypto of any real success where the endgame is average joe being able to walk into starbucks and pay for his coffee with it.
This is an interesting idea and would be something to consider if we were building MLB from scratch. I think it's a non-starter as a modification of the current system, though.

It's a great idea for an OOTP simulation. (OOTP is a highly detailed baseball management simulation game that accommodates things like this)
There's so much that doesn't add up about this crisis. Russian
soldiers selling their fuel. Russians falling back on Google maps. A
40 mile long stationary convoy that could be flattened by a single
high altitude bomb run. Russians abandoning their vehicles.

I get the impression that the Russian forces are dilapidated,
demoralised and undisciplined.

They could be prone to unconventional influence, even traditional
leaflet drops. Google markers could be used to convey demoralising
messages. Maybe telling then that Putin has gone insane, or that the
Rouble has in fact already collapsed and they will not be paid.

Something about this situation tells me it's ripe for creative pysops.
The individual share links would be linked to what exactly? A non-user object with the student's name and email address?
It looks to me that vtsax is representing the value of companies who exist.

I would not compare.this to crypto
Your answer is to talk about. So, talk about it.

Or are you saying someone else should solve this for you?
Because it is interesting to people on this platform?
> Why do these important sites never get actual user feedback before forcing out a major update as a big "surprise" ?

The people behind the redesign do so for career, resume & portfolio reasons - they are very unlikely to ever use MDN themselves so they don't care and don't see the problem. You can't rely on user feedback because there's a very high risk users will tell you everything is fine and there's no need for you to mess with anything.
I think you mean that VS is emulating the Unix gdb GUI debugging process. No doubt some standards have cross pollinated.

I did not assert impossibility of change via protest. Only that, given where Russia is now, it would have to be violent, armed protest. And you're not going to get people engaged in that with economic sanctions, no matter how severe.

Canada closes ports, territorial waters to Russian ships
That isn’t really answering the question.

The question is, is there inherently a massive trade off between our living standards and addressing climate, given there is no substantial change in our level of technology (you said we’d need to go backwards 2 centuries).

If we “magically” implemented political solutions with proper urgency, does that necessarily entail a massive drop in living standards in your mind?
This is a very valid question. While Russia likely cares, I'm not sure this is "top of mind" for them to dedicate resources against.
The point is, using HN comments as a quality or truth filter doesn't work, especially since most people here only ever engage with the comments. It's the blind leading the blind here.
> It's unlikely that they will engage nuclear weapon if the west intervene in Ukraine.

My understanding is that Putin has repeatedly made it painfully clear that that is exactly what he would do if anyone interferes.
Agree,

But is understandable how NATO troops and ballistic missiles at their doorstep could be a worry for them. Same as USA would not accept if Canada and Mexico joined some kind of Russian defence union, as we still remember from the 'Cuban missile crises'

And we also still remember US/UK/EU... invaded and bombed Iraq, Libya and Syria and demanded their leaders to step down. And specially in Syria all US made polls indicated that the population was happy with their leader. All those countries population live in worse conditions today

And Ukraine is also in a civil war since 2014

So I would prefer that there was no invasions anywhere, and Ukraine had said no to NATO. But weighting everything I say I am not interested in a world war 3

Electronic Arts (EA) | https://www.ea.com/ | REMOTE in NA and ONSITE in Seattle | Full-time

I actually don't skip any meals. I have three small meals. Some people go the whole hog and just have one meal. However I would say delaying or skipping breakfast is definitely the easiest.
I think that this article looks to European football as a model, whereas it would do better to look to the NFL.

I'd implement a few economic reforms:

- Decent wages for minor leaguers
- Hard salary cap and floor per team such that players take home ~55% of revenue

And a few gameplay reforms:

- Pitch clock, to speed up pace of play
- Tweak the baseball and/or mound placement, to discourage the home run / strikeout style and incentivize more balls in play
- Cap the number of relief pitchers per game

This would make the game faster, more visually appealing, more equitable between teams (so every team will be forced to spend / have a good shot to keep their best players) all without any extreme changes.
There's a lot of open source projects, most of them fail. I don't think the availability of an OSS ISA is good enough to overcome the friction of adopting a brand new technology, unless it enables something that competitors don't. And it doesn't seem to do that w.r.t ARM (so far).
If you’re using an A6X at an angle, like resting it on an arm of a couch, the gesture fails more than it works.

It also fails if part of your other hand brushes the screen.

"When a better-fitted role comes up, the company might ask you to come back and interview for that one."

I want to be optimistic. But realistically, how often does that actually happen, even in this hot market?
I often only read comments because I usually don't care about whatever the article is about. Just not interested; I'd keep scrolling if there weren't any comments. As another commenter said, it's true that you don't get the full story, but I often don't care about the story at all. Nonetheless, the comments often turn into more lateral discussions which are interesting.
