> Photography is accepted as forensic evidence. Painting is not. This makes photography quite objective.

You've got the causality the wrong way around. Painting is not accepted as evidence because it is not considered objective. Photography is accepted. Whether that's always the right decision though should really be called in question by the OP. Not saying it should be outright refused, but this can be a case-by-case decision to make. You can change photos a lot by framing.

Found that classic example I wanted to post earlier. First picture here:

I use a 70-key Redox, not sure if you would classify that as a tiny keyboard. I have all the navigation keys available in my primary layout. Since I'm a vim user, I mark words exactly as I would on a normal-size keyboard: using vW.

I do not have F-keys in my default layout, and I don't miss them as I rarely used them on a normal-size keyboard anyway. But if I do need them, they're just one layer shift away: Fn+1 gives me F1.

Do note that layers can be activated permanently, not just through chording. In my layout, tapping Fn twice turns the right half of the keyboard into a numpad layout so I can do quick data-entry. And in that layer I also have a Tab key under my right hand so I can do both horizontal and vertical data entry. On a normal keyboard, the missing Tab key always forced me to keep both hands on the keyboard when using the Numpad.

>What seems to work for me and many people is: soon after you join, start meeting with many people one on one.

Very much agree with this one, particularly with remote work. Most people get too many emails, and will naturally prioritize emails from people they know and have a reputation with compared to a new person.

Even quick introductions before meetings as people filter into a meeting room. You don't talk about your hobbies and family before a meeting starts with 30 people on Zoom, but that's certainly permissible with a couple people as people enter the room.
> In my opinion, the performance delta between 28nm Sandy Bridge and 14nm Kaby Lake is ridiculously small.

Two of my Linux workstations are Sandy Bridge and Kaby Lake, and my real world experience bears this out. I can't distinguish between the two for everyday use cases; only synthetic benchmarks show any real advantage in the newer system. I can't speak for Windows performance differences, as my only Windows system is my gaming rig with a Ryzen 5 3600, which of course trounces both of the workstations no matter the OS.
Yes but not too much that we can't just wait it out. It's not like the planet is a hot fireball right now. If you wanted to make the planet more hospitable to humans, you would most likely attempt to stop desertification and deforestation rather than attempt CO2 capture. Increased water retention will help with droughts more than a 1°C reduction in global temperatures.

Of course, we are going to see far more than a 1°C increase which is why it is worth doing.

This sounds reasonable, until you realise that his opinions massively skew which licensed doctors he lets on the show. So effectively you’re ending up with him pushing his opinion anyway.

If you cherry-pick your experts enough, you’ll be able to find one that agrees with you, no matter how absurd your position.

I’ll also note that much of the time the licensed doctors he invites on aren’t actually in relevant specialties at all. And in many cases they are grifters in some way or another.
Considering the regulations aren’t universal, but they seem to work fine everywhere, your hypothesis sounds preposterous.

This sort of unfounded conspiratorial thinking is absurd. The past has shown the opposite, that whenever government tries to shove broken algorithms down people's throats, cryptographers ignore it and go for something they can prove is correct. BLAKE2 and ChaCha20 are algorithms designed by cryptographers that hate the government.

Nobody is right to be "knocked", it's discourse and leaving alone each other's freedoms what could work. Same as with the russians: censoring "knocking" Russian media won't solve anything, just create a more pro-war society.

I agree that pages about web development should themselves not depend on CSS3 support at the renderer because it's a huge step forward from CSS2 and the documentation itself is just simple documents rather than complex layouts. This has the air of web designers not having even considered this aspect and just went with modern web standards as usual. So an issue should maybe be raised about this. As I browse the site, it's rather simple, strongly text-centric layouts here that may be assisted by CSS3 at places but I can honestly not see why there should be a desperate need.

The content of MDN is open at https://github.com/mdn/content, currently a mix of HTML and Markdown but getting transitioned to Markdown. So a different effort could perhaps be made here for a "low-tech" (like CSS2 at most and Javascript-free?) static page generation to live in parallell with the modern pages. It's all neatly organized in a hierarchical structure.
My favorite keyboard of all time is the kinesis freestyle 2. It’s a split keyboard, but unlike other splits, it is big, so i have arrow keys and function keys, just like my other keyboards. It is also not mechanical, which i think is a plus because all the mech switches I’ve tried are loud and require more pressure or key travel.

Cheap way to go ergo.

Teams aren’t really racing 10 teams against each other. The top 2-3 teams are competing, then there is a middle 2-3 teams competing for the spots behind the top pair or trio. There are drivers and teams that would celebrate a 10th spot more than one in the top teams would celebrate a podium.

I think this aspect is important and the sport can be exciting if one accepts these conditions. A field of 10 teams where anyone could take the title is probably not even a “design goal” for the regulations.

It all requires some luck with the “pairings” however. Last season was a great example of how it should be with thrilling fights between teams 1..2 and 3..5 and so on. Previous years Mercedes was unfortunately alone in #1 and a fight for 2..3 is obviously not as exciting.
I used to watch F1 back in 90s until beginning of 00s, it was interesting, there were not that significant differences between cars and you could see actual driving skills and overtaking, over the time it turned into siesta lullaby where overtaking happens at best in the pitstop and that's it, pretty much boring from start to finish and you really need to stay extremely focused to not fall asleep.

What F1 really needs is one monopost for all drivers when only driving skills will make difference and not how much money will someone throw at car R&D.

Later I switched to Moto GP, much more dynamic, you can see multiple changes to positions within few laps and it's about actual skills.

Please correct me if I am wrong and F1 is now dynamic with lot of overtaking since I haven't seen one GP in last 10-15 years.

Btw. do yourself a service and don't watch the new documentary Schumacher, it's just waste of time with NO new information for anyone who watched F1 during Schumacher times.
> This is how any sane production setup works

Well sure, but almost nobody is running production workloads on macOS. Regarding development workflows. Won't rebuilding the image every time you make changes be slow? I can get ~1 second reload times for node.js services outside of Docker. And I believe inside Docker too on linux.
Does your art class perhaps only cover “fine art”? Or does it also include the performing arts like music, theatre, even cinema? In my experience in the UK, “art” in school commonly only means fine art, and other forms of art are different enough that they’re broken out into other “subjects”.
With the difference that Apple HW performance might be "good enough" for 3rd party software vendors if they take into account the extra development burden for the platform. Anyway some of those benchmarks were already using Metal and are still behind.

> Intel really wanted to release (in my opinion) very interesting processors...

No. Intel just wanted to show some little improvements to keep performance gap constant, hide their neat tricks until competition catch up, and use them when clients or the market really demanded it.

The only notable efforts I've seen were reducing performance penalty of SpeedStep performance switching, making better memory controllers to "Catch" AMD, and other power-gating and independent throttling capabilities to address density issues in systems.

When fab/power/thermal issues became apparent, they started to hide AVX/AVX2 frequencies, created frankenprocessors for some applications, etc.

However, I've seen no real effort to make groundbreaking innovations in x86 space rather than protecting what they already had.

Performance counters, and other underlying piping to make processor observable was nice though.

As a result, I can still use a 3rd generation i7 as a daily driver for almost all tasks at hand, including development. The only definitive performance difference shows itself when I run my scientific code after compiling it with platform platform specific optimizations on newer systems. On that regards, an M1 MacBook air can be 25% faster than a 7th gen 7700K processor, and I find it ironic.
What I find particularly curious is why exactly did people start to believe drawing something or saying something can actually have any magical effect. Is logical absurdity (doing an action which consumes energy of an effort but has no obvious effect) exactly the force meant to do the work here perhaps? No fun making, actually trying to dissect the logic on which does the magic stand :-)
This article failed to mention what seems to me like one of the most important aspects of the competition: team dynamics.

Mercedes is the only team (as far as I know) that says things like "we win as a team and lose as a team", try to hold blame-free retrospectives, open collaboration between various sub-teams, and so on.

Every other team goes for cut-throat competition between individuals. "You have to prove yourself or you're out", mistakes are held against you, and so on.

Guess which team has won the last 8 constructor's championships?

I can't believe people aren't talking more about this.
Serious question: What media doesn't choose their guests to fit their opinions or their political stance? I'd like to watch that one.

You’re basically saying that if a company is successful it should be taken from its owners without compensation.

And you claim (with no evidence) that there are good arguments for this.
Probably a fairer comparison would be something that runs natively using vulkan or metal on both Apple's M1 and X86/Nvidia that isn't heavily optimized for just one of those. There aren't that many modern games that you could reach for here. But probably something that can target both vulkan and metal would be what you'd want. The upcoming x-plane v12 is something I might like a mac studio for.

What's interesting here is that is that we're haggling over comparing something that is an SOC design with fairly modest energy usage and cooling with a video card and cpu (presumably) that need a lot of power and cooling. Imagine Apple putting a few of these CPUs in the mac pro next year (or whenever they release that).

Of course these things are pricey. 5K for the 64 core model, ouch. I think they are going to be making lots of money selling these.

As for intel, amd, and nvidia. They each need to get their act together on the SOC front. They are not for crippled laptops anymore but for high end work stations as well. Nvidia should re-assess what they want now that their arm acquisition is off the table. IMHO they should get rid of amd/intel as the go-to cpu for their gpu and just build their own SOC and target it at gaming machines, workstations, etc. There's no good reason to stick with x86 anymore either. License ARM, or maybe hop on the Risv V bandwagon.

I use a dactyl manuform 4x5 with the miryoku layout. I took some time getting used to the key placement and mod taps but it's impressive how little one moves their hands when typing, even for numbers and symbols. Hasn't changed how fast I type though.
For me it was BDD rather than TDD that helped out more, add to that linters and such and it made many beginning development hurdles easier.

Other thing that made it eaiser us convention in naming ( the dont know what the function return part mentioned in text)

BDD was helping becuase it alllowed me to change the way I was solving a problem or building a feautre, where before I would focus on fixing or creating a smaler thing then moving to the next, nowdays I would mock and scaffold until I can see the direction that the code takes rather than what direction I think it takes.

Those tests I write I treat as utterly disposable ones only keeping those that are enough tied to business logic ( and the lack of it) that represent a living important part of documentation.

Only then as parts solidify I might opt to do unit tests, but all those I approach as BDD test but on a different scale/scope.

So as with everyting doing too much of something will end up creating more problems than not. But it takes time and effort to find that balance and I havent even begin to scratch the surface of it.
I’ve yet to see a fair comparison/assessment on M1 Ultra’s GPU performance in terms of ML potential. The same with 3D rendering outside of Blender 3.1 speeds which is not optimal (I also wonder if industrial rendering engines such as Renderman will support ARM in the future). As more and more softwares optimize for ARM, I see a great deal of potential for these machines above and beyond what is possible right now within limited ecosystem. I am 100% convinced Apple struck gold with this.
This is just standard netsec jargon.

I switched late high school to exclusively use Colemak and have since. It's harder to reflect now about the difference of it as it have just became the new normal for me, but I remember my initial reactions after getting fluent in colemak was that:
1. for me personally it didn't improve typing speed significantly
2. It felt much more ergonomic. I don't move my hands as much.
3. this was an unexpected side effect, but I noticed how horrible the symbol layout is for programmers on the default swedish layout. colemak symbol layout is much more similiar to the english qwerty which is so much better.
That's in no way completely true. You're essentially 100% buying into the Mercedes propaganda.
So you may not have a lot of experience with switching jobs yourself -- I don't myself -- but you've probably got a lot of experience being on the other side of things, being on established teams in an established company and having new people join.

How'd that go? What were the failure modes? Who really nailed it?

One specific piece of advice is going to be to remember that your old company was your old company. Some things about the way it worked -- from its coding practices to its tooling and framework choices to its meeting structure -- were right, some were wrong, and most were just arbitrary and didn't matter in the long run. Don't be too keen to try to remake your new company in the image of the old one because that's what's familiar to you. Take some time to understand the new company and what does or doesn't work about it, and also where the existing sentiments lie.

When you do draw on your experience to offer a suggestion that you try X like they did at your old company because the Y the new company does just isn't working, you want the reaction to be that half the team has been saying it for years, but they haven't had anyone with the depth of experience with X to make the change.
you can do that! sent you an email :)
Show HN: Hacker News keyboard navigation [Chrome extension]
Hacker News has a unique feature that reddit and other forums don't have - the "hide" button.

In theory, you may scan through the titles and click "hide" on each one you know you won't read. The benefit is when you come back later next time, you won't have to scan through those titles again.

This sounds great, except nobody does it, because it's too many clicks.

This chrome extension solves this with keyboard:

[↑] [↓]: go up and down the list

[←]: not interested / hide

[→]: open link (background new tab)

[Enter]: open link (foreground new tab)

>I don’t think I’ve seen anybody “knocking” scientists looking into whether ivermectin works. (...) What I have seen is the knocking of people who claim that ivermectin is a wonder drug

That's because they did both, combined: "knocked down scientists looking into whether ivermectin works" by making them appear as claiming that "ivermectin is a wonder drug".

Then they get to gloat that they just knocked down those deserving it, and to strawman them more, they say that "they weren’t interested in the truth at all".
Are you knocking the knockers? No one is suggesting they be arrested. They're just being ridiculed.
>> What F1 really needs is one monopost for all drivers when only driving skills will make difference and not how much money will someone throw at car R&D.

That would no longer be F1. There are lots of other categories that follow that formula (e.g. F2/3 and IndyCar) if that’s what you’re looking for. Engineering genius is an important part of F1, even historically (e.g. the “fan car”).

They weren't even considering something as grand for desktop/laptops as Apple was with the M1 (i.e. a fully integrated SOC).

Perhaps I misinterpret your argument, but it is my impression that Intel (and also AMD!) did huge steps into that direction, just in a more incremental way than what Apple did:

- integrated GPU: check

- integrated memory controller: check

- integrated northbridge: check: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Northbridge_(comp...

- developing a smartphone SoC: Intel did invest serious money into it and developed SoFIA and Broxton. Intel even strongly subsidized smartphone producers to use them. This all turned out to be a huge commercial failure and thus Intel left the smartphone SoC business.

It is also not the case that a fully-integrated SoC is "better". Rather having not everything in one SoC enabled much more flexibility for OEMs. Fully integrated SoC versus more chips is rather a trade-off between various goals.

Don't like to defend Joe Rogan, but he literally had the guy that laughed him off at CNN (Sanjay Gupta).

While he is often pushy with dumb ideas he will often have guests that contradict him. I stopped listening to him regularly because hearing his opinion along so many guests gets kind of old, and he isn't the smartest guy in the world so it gets boring even faster. But I wouldn't characterize him as closeminded.
Who is “they”? Can you point out where scientists researching ivermectin have been knocked? I certainly haven’t seen it in mainstream outlets, and I don’t even recall seeing it in scientific communities skeptical of ivermectin.
What you're saying is a theory.

It's a good theory but youre technically spouting misinformation by claiming it's hard fact.

This theory was developed by Scott Alexander from SSC in his ivermectin blog post.

Joe Rogan never claimed anyone should take medical advice from him.

He had Sanjay Gupta and Robert Malone both medical doctors with differing opinions.

This is how the media is supposed to work. It's not supposed to be just the people you agree with(that's propaganda).
