My thoughts exactly. Berkeley Mono looks great on the website and in the PDF data sheet, but the real test is how does it look in my terminal and editor, especially when compared side-by-side with my current preferred font (Pragmata Pro; also commercial but well worth it!)
Neuromorphics aren't analog FWIW. They're just asynchronous.
I edited my comment. That's fair comments... I meant more the non-board stuff such as wires/interconnects etc. I actually saw a thread once where people were able to correlate bulk purchases on Alibaba/Ali (since they publish it with redacted usernames) with Adafruit on stock of certain supplies.
In our town (about 15,000 people, about 1/2 military-related) there are only a handful of EVs, and only two Teslas. Everyone knows who owns them. They all hibernate through winter in warm garages beside giant ICE pickup trucks. They are just fashion statements rather than 24/7/365 daily drivers. EVs are not an option for those of us who cannot afford multiple vehicles.
To paraphrase MLK, riots are the voice of the unheard. When we, as a society, fail to listen to the plight of our neighbors, violence is the result.

We can beef up our policing and surveillance operations in a futile attempt to lessen the impact of violent riots. Or, we can spend that effort or listening and making changes to the systems that cause these riots in the first place.

Yes, rioting is illegal and should remain so. But arresting rioters is treating a symptom, not the disease.
4. As a hiring manager, I'd need different "profiles" for each team (one team mobs 24/7, another almost never mobs, etc)

5. What I would want as a candidate (a blunt and specific "warts and all" description of the team I'm joining) is not what employers would provide (vague, HR-y generalities like "we use cutting-edge technology" and "we prioritize work-life balance"). This was what turned me off from KeyValues.

But I hope these are tractable, because I very much like the OKCupid model and would use the product if these could be solved.
The difference is that it's in Europe. Ukraine is about as democratic as El Salvador. See https://freedomhouse.org/countries/freedom-world/scores?sort...
I like the typeface but I think it would be helpful to have a way for someone to copy and paste their code as a preview but I think that if you allowed that then others could download your font for free. You might want to mention that it costs $75 above the fold and I would think that you would want also to center the column of the site itself (these are nitpicks though).

It never actually sold cards. That was the original plan, but Satoshi’s invention changed the scope a little.

They also got robbed before they opened to the public, were insolvent for all their life, found a sucker to take the blame (who did serve time), then founded another shitcoin, fell out with the others, founded another shitcoin.

The evidence probably supports that if the majority of constituents support something that isn't clearly unconstitutional it does tend to happen. See weed legalization in many states which at least in Massachusetts passed in a ballot question with the legislature kicking and screaming through the whole process.

Even if, how would that work in practice though? Should they cross-check the passenger lists of any aircraft that crosses US space and intercept the aircraft if any passenger is a russian citizen?
Truly amazing. This statement shows that you know very little about the history of Ukraine or Iran, Syria, Iraq.
Back to the office? No thank you.
They are affected by their own elections though.
Of course it's not a real car so will crumble in an accident and probably have terrible handling.
It is amazing how far ahead of practice the theory of quantum algorithms has gotten, and it will be even more amazing when the first commercial quantum computer is built and they all suddenly get used. I wonder if there is any precedent for this?

Nope, you didn't miss anything. The license is $75 for the developer package, you use it unlimited times, anywhere you want (except commercial use) and you get unlimited updates.

I was excited for it, but I cannot justify the price.

I may however consider the $25/year for commercial use if I ever want to use it.
With covid numbers falling from the inevitable January spike after the holidays, lifting omicron restrictions was always going to happen sometime this spring. (Barring some new deadly hypothetical variant.)

But I don't doubt that both parties factor PR into all of their decisions, down to how they dress.

The implication that a PR firm could dictate that the country would remain shut down until November despite covid numbers this low is silly. But I'm sure timing and messaging and other details are informed by PR studies.

Whether from fear of losing their jobs or wanting to carry out the will of their constituents, lawmakers have to pay attention to what we think either way.

> Americans will do anything to avoid providing people with housing.

Including resorting to $60K per year tents. [1]

But we could steelman the argument for proposals like this one: you could see homelessness as a problem of loneliness, addiction, mental health issues and unstable families. This might be more realistic compared to seeing it as merely a housing issue.

I am optimistic that with the interest, government policy and both public and private funding, we can achieve the necessary scale required. It will probably take longer than the optimists predict and less time than the pessimists think.

I disagree. The advice to disable SELinux, like your assertion that it's too complicated for ordinary users, belongs to an older time. It's time to lay that myth to bed.

Sure, if you're messing around with k8s and doing fun eBPF stuff you are going to need to be careful. But for just installing an OS, running it to do some web-browsing, gaming, image editing, wordprocessing? I would be highly surprised if the defaults do not work.
I would consider it but it would have to be very repeatable and well defined and at that point, why haven’t I automated it? The posited Agency of One sounds pretty much like a beginning-stage SaaS while you’re doing things on pen and paper or a spreadsheet until you’ve figured out what you need to actually build.

Otherwise, that seems like a fast track ticket to burning out. Retainer model and selling bundles of hours is going to keep your client incentivised to not waste your time.
The functionality isn't really the same. Yes, you can export animations, but it's much more difficult to provide the same level of interactive game that Flash did.

I would like to get involved in activism to expose Russians to the horrors of what is happening in Ukraine, via campusing their internet presence with some of the war footage.

This is a very common thing that all PCs can do and you'd expect a top end ($$$$) laptop to be able to do. But because of proprietary choices in the boot process M1 consoles can't.

If you think about it, Mythic analog AI accelerators will also develop neurological 'disease' as it's flash cells wear out.
Pre-made are pretty cool, but I'd be wary of DIY-ing mushroom cultures. There are several YouTube channels dedicated to this and they explain all the contingency that they use to prevent contamination and it's surprisingly non-trivial.
Kind of fascinating that the origin of this term is an example where I don't think 'whataboutism' really applies:

Hey the IRA has committed multiple atrocities > well the English occupation of Ireland is much more violent and brutal than the IRA resistance

like, the IRA was planting bombs and killing kids in pursuit of throwing off the English, whose crimes were worse, and committed for the purpose of maintaining English control of Ireland.

later whataboutism is about questioning the standing of the speaker: "oh you hate Putin, but what about American crimes elsewhere?" These are unrelated points saying essentially "you can't criticize me for poisoning the ocean because you don't always recycle your cans"
I love this take, thanks for being pragmatic and open minded!
Perhaps "defunded" is not the right word, as it will require a lot of funding to implement these systems. Maybe "destaffed". My understanding is that a lot of departments are facing major hiring and retention issues.
The perils of the “real” client IP
There were times at Apple that people were given a "no" on the interview because, despite knowing the solution to the problem, had compilation errors in there code. I thought (and still think) that was idiotic.
I think that was the point of the comment right? Kasparov is a bit of a hawk and very much against the current government in Russia on literally everything. Doesn't mean he's wrong, but it definitely speaks to a bias, which I believe was the point of the comment.

Back to the Curt Schilling example, if he were to tweet 10 things he hates about Biden, whether or not they are legit criticism would be lost on the audience due to his known biases.
Hashmaps are often overrated. I can count on my fingers how many times I used dictionaries in Python. Pretty much anything you can do with dictionaries can be much more cleanly done with classes and other built-in features.

Membership testing? Use sets. Data storage? Use classes with slots or tuples/namedtuples. Custom switch statement? Use the new match/case keywords or just fall back to plain if/elif towers.

It's so much simpler.
> Do you think the Omicron wave might have had more to do with the COVID restrictions than the VA governor's race?

I don't.

The case numbers in many, if not most areas, are still higher than they were during the delta wave in the Summer and Fall that led to the lockdowns and restrictions being implemented in the first place.

If this were truly just about the data then you'd expect the restrictions to lift once the case counts returned to pre-delta numbers.

Edit/Clarification: I say this as someone is/was generally been in favor of a very cautious response to COVID.
This is exactly it. We've been spending money in our suburbs for too long and it's killing the restaurant businesses that they own.

The Gov of New York has basically come out and said exactly that.
> Also like most people, we are not experts on military strategy or international diplomacy.

Surely they meant to say "Also , unlike most people on the internet" :p
There is a group of people for whom the side effects are completely fine, welcome even. It would be a reduction in ability of care if the drug became unapproved. Maybe I'm just oversimplifying, but couldn't people who are not ok with the side effects, not take the drug? I find it ok to say, here are the side effects, and here are their prevalence and leave it up to the patient to decide, but perhaps I'm misunderstanding the point.
Demystifying NaN for the Working Programmer
> Yep. Lawyers will always take the road of least liability. I have no doubt the lawyer said to not even write about it publicly.

That's what I think a lot of business owners and managemwnt don't quite understand about lawyers. If you listened to everything your lawyers are telling you, then you would never do anything interesting (i.e. anything risky). You don't necessarily have to listen to everything a lawyer says because their incentive is to limit your risk, not necessarily to ensure your long term success, which are different things. If it means doing wrong by your customers then lawyers may tell you to do it if it means a micron less liability.
Maybe if somebody gets bored enough they'll start it as an open-source project, fund hosting via donations?

I think the key is the right vision to make it work. I see replies of "I did the same thing!" but they seem to be missing the killer feature: high-quality data. Good data (and lots of it) enables better algorithmic matching. To get the data, you need gamification. IIRC, OkCupid grew fast because bored people would fill out fun surveys, and that generated tons of data. So a big part of their site was probably just dedicated to "how can we convince people to answer all these questions and submit new ones?", and that's much harder than just creating a job board.
It's truly amazing how much whataboutism and Russian propaganda there is in the US.
Kinda useless article. Maybe need to think why they need so many major versions so often to break backward compatibility. And if one just updates minor versions none of those problems occur.
One option to allow users to preview the font while not letting them download it for free is to have them submit their code sample, render an image of it on the server, then send that back to the user. Not as nice as rendering the font in browser, of course, but it works.

They're not really a neo-nazi battalion. Everyone is too sensitive about anything to do with nazis. It was started by some far-right extremists, but who cares. Ypu might also be surprised to learn that America was founded by a bunch of slave owners, Einstein slept with his cousin, Santa claus isn't real.
It's likely a throwaway account and I understand the reasoning behind creating one. Apple has a very secretive, almost paranoid, workplace culture. If I were in the parent poster's shoes I'd make one too to avoid blowback.
> So first, if you need to do 'work', then definitely just use electricity directly to do the job, which is much more efficient.

Pardon me but this doesn’t sound right. If you want to generate heat, burning natural gas is going to be a lot more efficient overall than first burning natural gas at a power plant then transmitting electricity to your facility to convert it to heat. Similarly with rotational energy, etc. Your second point stands: if you power your process by solar, wind, or hydro you could get ahead of CO2.

I new they were building a new cosmodrome I hadn't heard much about it. Most of their launches are still from Baikonor, but I could be mistaken.
Bad things exist on a spectrum from "kind of bad" to "unadulterated evil". I'd peg the US invasion of Iraq somewhere around "pretty damn malevolent", but also quite far from Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

There is a conceivable universe—not a likely one; the war was both malevolent and stupid—in which setting up a democracy in Iraq made life better for millions of people. Saddam Hussein was a brutal and ruthless dictator. Volodymyr Zelenskyy is an elected president.

It's true that my assessment is based on the view that democracies are inherently more just than autocracies, and not any sort of international law regarding sovereignty. I'm not defending the US's invasion of Iraq. However, I do think democracies are better than autocracies, and I think the world should react differently depending on which is at stake.
Highway to the TrustZone (Using Rust with TrustZone-M)
Around here the public schools give homework starting in 1st grade. Very little, but it increases pretty fast after that.

Not new, really. I was assigned lots of homework in grade school, back in the early 90s. I just easily got all of it done at school (still with tons of time to spare for reading, writing, and drawing), so it never actually went home.
Hey, I also don't like chocolate all that much, and I seem to be some kind of inexplicable alien because of that. So, it's very possible "it's just me" that I don't like good things because curmudgeon. :)

I see the distinction you make there now that you point it out.
I'd probably bump it to 90s, at minimum. I moved what I felt was pretty fast through it, and ended up in the high 50s both tries (1 fail while figuring it out, then succeed).
I'd be interested to know what makes your business model different from Hired.com, which was basically the same thing, right? Just curious as someone who follows the space
What is the temperature differential problem?

(I think many mushrooms are pretty happy fruiting at ~70F room temperature, as is cannabis. Is it that the grow lights fight the humidity needs of the mushrooms? Or do the species of mushrooms you're using have different temperature needs? Or the cannabis grows faster as temperature increases?

I've only worked with shiitake and oyster, and got poor results with one lions mane attempt so... definitely not an expert)
> And why would it be alright if a business did it?

Because it’s a free market. If the company isn’t a monopoly, it’s a slight inconvenience if you have to go somewhere else, it’s not censorship. You can still access the content and say what you want about it somewhere else.

The opposite is almost impossible to enforce. Look at book stores. They can’t sell every single book because of physical and practical limitations. You’d also be preventing niche bookstores like ones that only cater to cookbooks. You can’t force a business to accept everything anyone wants to say no matter what. In a free market businesses are allowed to create the customer experience they desire.

This Russian law is what censorship looks like. A complete banning of a word or topic — with the power to enforce that ban.

Private businesses have no jurisdiction over the decisions of another free market business.

I think the RT and Sputnik bans had the added component of being a state-owned revenue stream for Russia and therefore a not so indirect financier of the invasion. You can still access the websites for free.
Lots of teams, companies, and general best practice all have policies and/or guidelines around versioning, and its usually something to the effect of wait till the package is 1.0 to use it in production. I think that's why there is always a "race" to the 1.0

I think we should just push for more date based versioning, for instance, CalVer[0]

Dabl is a hyperlocal social app that finds compatible users for you. As you cross paths with people throughout the day you are prompted to come on the app when someone in the same room has a similar interest to you. We present compatible people that are in the same room to facilitate spontaneous interactions, mirroring how we currently meet new people.
This also assumes that changing the password would effectively lock out attackers that have already breached your systems.
The not-just-poll-driven view of this is that you also should take into account:

- for many - not all, but many - of the more vulnerable to hospitalization and death, it's now a matter of choice.

- As a result, a bigger spike in cases caused much fewer hospitalizations and deaths than previous spikes, meaning less impact on the rest of the health system.

- behavior has changed dramatically in terms of things like event attendance even in areas with more cautious government policy. Compare how many people went to movie theaters in late summer 2020 when they reopened in limited capacity in California with now. The limited capacity isn't the biggest difference, it's the behavior.

- we can see that, say, California has fewer cumulative deaths per capita than Texas or Florida despite the urban areas being somewhat denser[0] (which itself seems to play a big role), and Arizona has more than NY or Massachusets despite being far less dense and with much milder winters... but the differences aren't orders of magnitudes.

- masks are cheaper and more available than they were earlier, and treatments are becoming more widely available too

So this is a reasonable point to say "we aren't able to eliminate this thing, but fortunately, it's much less dangerous to most of us than it used to be."

But make no mistakes: the biggest factor there in terms of danger is the vaccines, which have now been available over a year.
