> That's like saying Apple raises the prices of the iPhone through new generation of iPhone models, which is not true at all. If the same service gets a higher price, then it's a praise raise. If a new service gets a higher price, it's just a new service.

I don't think the distinction is that clear: you could just rebrand an existing service and raise the price. "Try our new v2 APIs, guaranteed compatibility with our v1 API and only 10% more expensive!"

I think the reality is somewhere in between, where companies will use new product launches to add stuff for customers and raise prices to protect their margin.
I'm positive on bioengineering carbon capture tech. Not aligned on investing in a land-based solution as ~70% of the Earth's surface is water-covered. Also, algae are already the fastest growing plants on Earth, before any genetic engineering.

From first principles, why not focus efforts on the most scalable and fastest carbon fixing planyts?

Strictly speaking, kernel-level namespaces are the technology. "Containers" are a pattern based on kernel-level namespaces, and "thin management veneers" help make sense of the underlying technology and implement that pattern.
What an absolute plague upon humankind advertising is, and this is maybe one of the grossest executions of it that I've seen yet. For the majority of people, I cannot see these screens adding any actual value
We had to handroll our own OT implementation inhouse (based on https://github.com/ottypes/text-unicode) since we had built the system for it already. I suspect we would've used or forked CodeMirror's collab package if we were starting today.

Also huge fan of yjs, but the implementation is not compatible with codemirror 6, only version 5 (AFAIK)
No I mean NATO, not the US, would fight for Ukraine, not the US.

And yours is an "is" argument, I'm giving an "ought" argument. NATO ought to fight for Ukraine, because Ukraine is asking NATO to do so.
I pretty sure it refers to how the market share is spread between the competitors in a market. In a market with low concentration, you have say 20 competitors and no one has more than 10% of the market. When there is high market concentration, 3 of those 20 competitors might have 80% of the market.
Well that focusing part is pretty important :) The rest is mostly about gathering enough light and compensating for handshake, probably with some ML.

My solution would be to use dangerous/anti-social driving as an extreme revenue generator for Govts. Why print so much money when there are so many ignorant fools we can tax to death whilst also improving the lives of law abiding people as a happy side-effect.

Get caught speeding and get an automatic 1K fine. Do it again and it's 5K.
Tailgating would be 10K and an instant 12 months ban. Same for using a phone/texting.

What reasonable excuse do people have for committing these crimes in the first place? They deserve no sympathy or leniency.
I’ve spent ~5 years in ad-tech, and I’m well aware that it is not irrefutably solved. But I would attribute that to measurement limitations, than actual conceptual problems. I’ve seen the impact ads can have for SMBs and MNCs alike across verticals.

Proving specific incrementality is rarely a concern from actual customers, unless they wanted to tighten their purse strings. Nobody questioned if actual incremental gains could be made - only whether there are diminishing returns for their increased spend.

Ask HN: In-Person Bootcamps?
I have been looking for data analyst or software engineer bootcamps held in-person but it looks like most of the well known ones are still online, for example:

- Bloom Tech (formerly Lambda School)
- General Assembly
- Grace Hopper

There are a lot more but they are all held online. Does anyone know in-person bootcamps or has some information about bootcamps that will resume in-person any time soon?

The carbon capture is happening in forests in the soil.
By planting trees, we create plantations, no forests. We don't have many forests left. Purging forests makes soil dry, which helps making the planet hotter. So just stop, let forests grow untouched.

So again, this is wrong idea which makes things worse.
> China as a monopsony buyer of Russian gas will be able to set the price

Is it just China? EU also will continue buying gas, and prices are much higher now than year ago.
Note that you don't need any @ sigil inside this @case because it contains condition { CSS } pairs; where something like "default" or "otherwise" can be recognized as a special condition word without a sigil. Selectors do not appear there; "otherwise" isn't syntactically a selector for some <otherwise> tag.

I got it down to one @ sygil to write a long conditional ladder with any number of conditions and a default.

It could be called @cond, in the Lisp style; not a lot of people know that though.

The first condition that is true fires; the rest are then ignored, so the order of the cases matters. Many languages call that sort of thing using "case" terminology.

Probably a diagnostic in the browser console is worthwhile if the always true "otherwise" condition is followed by anything.
Kilroy was here
It’s their browser not yours if you don’t trust them use something else. I keep away from defaults especially search because they are usually paid for and not in good faith. They also dropped yandex two times already and you guessed it right… because of monetary reasons. This is not the smoking gun you want it to be.
Being a friend is not about that much maintenance. You can still be friends with someone who has these flaws in your life.

So it goes both ways. You shouldn't let flaws define a friendship, and you shouldn't let a friendship define your life either.

All of the people you mentioned I would still be friends with. The only thing I would "maintain" with them is keeping in touch or hanging out and maybe being there for them if they have a genuine problem I can help with.. but the help of course has limits...

If I can't help them, it doesn't mean I'm not their friend.
Might be worth taking a look at ProseMirror - it's fully modular and you can put it together by yourself - it's the ultimate in flexibility.

Fair, yes. I think I meant that with an implicit "... unless the license-seeker is willing to expend considerably more effort."

That's the 2022 budget which has been in effect for less than four months. And so far in 2022, crime has not "gone way up" -- at least not according to the city's crime dashboard[0]. That shows a grand total of 47,612 crimes in 2021. Divided by 12 months gives us an average of ~4k per month. So far the only total for 2022 is from January and shows a total of 4,023 crimes.

Yes, in a bank you have shares in whatever is left over after profit is taken. They try very hard to make it so your shares are worth the same amount as when you bought them, plus a known rate.
There are plenty of commodity chips that go into making a full server rack. If any little power regulator, etc. is backordered for months and years it's just more unexpected pain. And that's before we even get to the problems of entire factories shutting down, just look at what's happening to Apple & Foxconn of all companies in Shenzhen this week. If the big players are struggling the small fries are in for pain too.
One interesting thing I learned from the book "essentialism" is that the word priority used not to have a plural. It described the single most important thing to do.
Agree, yet most people do not understand the distinction. Changing the word in colloquial use could make people attentive by removing the rampant misinterpreted connotation that it was unpreventable.
Sending someone to jail is a surefire way to turn them into a more serious threat when they're released. You could just give the money you'd spend incarcerating them directly to the person or via food stamps, access to education, etc.
Fun fact: when and if have two completely different meanings in Yu-Gi-Oh. "When" means that an effect has to happen precisely after the trigger (so if some other mandatory effect happens in between, the "when" effect doesn't happen). "If" is much more flexible and just has to be on the same stack as the triggering effect.

Real-Time Coherent 3D Reconstruction from Monocular Video
A tangent: Reading your comment, at first I smiled at the verb 'Kirby', thinking it was a reference to the vacuum company... then I realized that it may be a reference to the videogame character.

Then I wondered if the video game character's name is derived from the vacuum company, or is it a coincidence? Am I an idiot for never noticing that before?

Like most of my trains of thought, it ends with me cursing myself for being an idiot.
I agree. It makes for good marketing, and it means lower-latency access for European customers.

I interpret the law as requiring it anyway, but I view this as carrot-and-stick.
Are most people who would have a use for a tool like Make on Windows?
I think it's not really that ironic, if you consider that the mass exodus was anyways likely to happen, if Amazon had done nothing. So really the only thing that changed, is Amazon trying to make an attempt to stave off the default exodus (which was already being observed/starting); in that sense, by analogy: is pumping water on a fire ironic? The fire is a given, it's already happening, so the water is just a genuine attempt at firefighting (might work, might not).
The idea of a forest of decay resistant, heavy metal accumulating wood is somewhat terrifying to me.

If they can contain spread of these trees from entering virgin forestlands, could be a net positive, but this feels a bit like a slow motion weapon of mass destruction.

Imagine our national parks being outcompeted by and filling up with toxic dead wood that never rots, it could be an ecological catastrophe.
Until you run into data locality laws in India.

I think if you are trying to future proof your application for data locality regimes you are just going to have to think about region shards. It makes application architecture more difficult but it seems like the days of treating the internet as non-region specific is over.
The key aspect here is that since Make knows what the dependencies are it has enough information to automatically parallelize the task. A simple task runner would need to be specifically configured with the dependency graph, and if you have that you've just re-created Make.

Spending a lot of money on something you don't need to do is not 'pragamatic'.

"It's unfortunate that finding the answer to such a simple question seems to require lawyers, "

Yes, and it's the a problem for the EU. While there is definitely a need to have some kind of regulatory elements in place, the degree of complexity involved creates considerable constraints and overhead for ultimately very little gain.

There is probably a version of this legislation, or even better, some kind of 'data treaty' between WTO or OECD nations that makes this work out with a lot less overhead.
Note also that specifically for one-dimensional data, there is a globally optimal solution to the k-means clustering problem. There is an R package that implements it using a C++ core implementation [1], and also a Python wrapper [2].

This implementation is also surprisingly fast, so you can use it to brute-force check many different numbers of clusters and check using silhouette distance. The advantage over traditional k-means is that you don't need to check multiple initializations for any given number of clusters, because the algorithm is deterministic and guaranteed to find the global optimum.

Funny! I tried to structure my prior comment to you with the exact same "get off your high horse" content since you were aggressive in your prior comments to the grandparent commenter, but didn't want to broach site standards.

Then our anecdotal experiences differ. I tend to see your outlook on this topic in people that are younger. Hence my prediction which was wrong for you individually.

Pretty much mentioning it in passing - it's hard to tell the experience level of random commenters online, so thought I might pass that along in case you were unfamiliar; I've done _some_ technical writing for work, but not enough, and none formal enough, to be familiar with the cardinal rules, so Diataxis has been in the back of my head for the last week+ since I saw it posted on HN.

Bound methods in Python are one of the keys to enlightenment to understanding its object system -- that self isn't magic and you could implement it yourself (for example having instance methods take a self, and cls parameter) if you wanted. One fun exercise is implementing an object that can "adopt" loose functions.

def some_random_function(self)
print(self.internal_state)

...

mymagicobject.func = some_random_func

mymagicobject.func() # -> prints the internal state of the object
And with algae my mind switches to the oceans. Ocean water's actually got lithium deposits and other things that, if we could get to them, would be useful. So it'd be cool if algae + science could somehow output the oceans contents in more industrial friendly formats. Especially if that meant carbon sequestration.
Then wouldn't we want to Pythonify Requests a bit and move it into the standard library?

Being gay or accepting such was a part of being "sexually liberated" back then. Just as being into kinks is a part of being "sexually liberated" now. I don't understand why you insist on conflating it all to marriage and children (or lack thereof).
If you get past the fancy custom scrolling part of their website, it also mentions flax and switchgrass as other plant species that could be used in "climate solutions".
right? I never understand this. the diapers are worth essentially ~nothing. the loss to society is nil. everyone is so hyper-focused on the momentary trivial material theft aspect and not realizing what society is actually losing is a person truly partaking in the rest of society in a productive or positive way.
I completely agree, and you can tell where the Ontario government start to take speeding seriously— going 149km/h where it's signed for 100? $400 fine. Going 151km/h on the same road? Now it's $10000 and roadside vehicle seizure. Pretty clear message about which one actually matters to them.

But ultimately it's the same issue here with everything else; except in extreme cases, it's not realistic to take away people's licenses when driving is a critical part of getting themselves to work.
I don't think that's the take home here. Viewed across their entire offering I suspect this is a relatively minor pricing change and won't have a big effect on the bottom line. Pure speculation, but I suspect that since Thomas Kurian took over there's been an increased focus on becoming profitable, so there's been more focus on tying up those little areas that were leaking money (e.g. legacy g suite free users). My guess this is another change along those lines.
> The problem is the money is going to the wrong people. There are a lot of good and honest people that are homeless and/or struggling to pay their rent. Andre isn't one of them. Andre gets his housing for free while other people freeze and are basically forced to kill themselves. Why is that?

Actually, the easy homeless cases (people who lack housing but can still work because they are not addicted to drugs/mentally ill/etc...) can already handled fairly effectively by social services. But as you point out, they aren't able to discriminate between them and the harder homeless cases (people who are addicted to drugs/mentally ill/etc...), and treating homeless problems homogeneously means throwing a lot of money away.

My experience has been the opposite, K-Means clustering is generally pretty useless in the real world with real data.

In general clustering algorithms tend not to be very useful because they are ultimately just very poorly defined latent variable models. Most people starting out with clustering don't even understand that they're making the assumption that K latent variables are responsible for generating the observed data.

K-means in particular has loads of problems for practical applications: the final location of the means is heavily dependent on the initial locations, the final location can also be heavily dependent on the particular dataset used (try bootstrap resampling to get variance of your means), assumes the data rests on a Euclidean surface, making geometric assumptions about high dimensional spaces is almost always a bad a bad idea (things being close by in Euclidean terms in high dimensional spaces often misses things that are nearly identical except on feature that is quite different).

With over a decade of modeling experience and building data science products I have never seen a product ship that relies on k-means and never seen analysis that isn't coming form someone junior in the field that relies on it.

K-means is a great demo the expectation maximization algorithm, which is a useful tool to understand, but generally I would avoid k-means, and clustering in general unless you have an explicit understanding of why you are doing it. Even then, there is probably a more stable and appropriate latent variable model you could use.
Yes, sass should change now that css will support conditionals.

sass stepped on css' toes by reusing the @xxx syntax from css instead of creating their own syntax.
The premise of this post seems odd to me. Are there really a lot of high level employees who think they're being hired just to point out problems? Similar to how nobody cares about your half though out startup idea, pointing out problems and then hanging up the phone isn't going to get you very far in most situations.

Understanding problems is a good start, but devising a feasible way to address them, and executing on that approach is how you succeed at, well, all kinds of things; CISO problems included.

To be fair, I doubt any corner store would hire him. Any real job is probably more lucrative than peddling stolen goods off the street, so there's likely a good reason for why he doesn't have another option (e.g. mental health or substance abuse).
