Do you know if this is possible with Kotlin/JVM, or only Kotlin/JS?

We've been sharing models via Kotlin/JVM -> Open API Spec -> Open API Generator, which is far from perfect or painless, and I was looking at alternatives like https://github.com/ntrrgc/ts-generator.

"Industry opposition

As the sludge ban gains momentum, Maine’s largest waste management company, Casella Waste Systems, and some wastewater treatment facilities, have responded by saying that the state doesn’t have enough room in its landfills for more sludge and that the ban will increase customers’ water and sewer bills.

Landfilling sludge is a problem, said Joe Fusco, Casella vice-president, because its storage requires more material as a bulking agent and that’s going to “take up scarce landfill space”."

The solution was to spread it around, and: "their soil, drinking water, irrigation water, crops, chickens and blood were contaminated with high levels of the toxic chemicals."
Maybe not helpful to OP but at some point I mostly stopped caring. COVID social distancing really drove home that it was societal expectations stressing me out, not some personal failing. I just don't put myself in these situations any more and find myself feeling a lot better.
Thanks for the reply. Just checked the settings and I do not turn on the "Sync contacts" feature. This is super weird.
I get what you mean, but I don't think the human mind can contemplate things that take thousands of years to unfold; it's just not wired for that. Even things that take years are difficult for us to comprehend.

Re: creating new beings. How long till you also get bored of that? Remember we're talking about quadrillions of years.

An additional thing to consider: if you could live quadrillions of years and still be able to perceive things that take thousands or millions of years to unfold, wouldn't you subjectively be living the lifespan of a normal human being? That is, your life wouldn't feel long to your mind, but normal (your mind would have to adjust to run more slowly). Wouldn't then regret your "short" lifespan and wish you could live longer?
I’m curious: why did this get flagged?

If it is because the submitted title is different from the title in the article, that doesn’t seem totally right, because the submitted title is a more useful/accurate summary than the actual title.

Would appreciate any insight into that, thanks!

I've finally found the article! It is "What do we want a foundation to do?", by Penelope Maddy.

http://www.socsci.uci.edu/~pjmaddy/bio/What%20do%20we%20want...

I need to reread it myself, but this is the article I was referencing.
Go on… what Microsoft lock ins in VSCode are you referencing?
This argument doesn't hold water. At the point malicious software is already on the machine, an automated update doesn't help. And if someone is inducing you to manually turn off automatic updates for malicious reasons... they could just as easily be inducing you to install malicious software directly.
I understand this desire but I think people who believe this should develop a new word or description for what you're attempting to do. See my comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30817964

I want to emphasize I'm not policing semantics just for the sake of being ornery. My reaction is approximately the same as it would be to someone who sends me a graph theory paper and calls it number theory. These distinctions are useful.

> Prosecutors are expected to focus on how Vaught overrode several warnings from an electronic medicine cabinet. Vaught allegedly typed in "VE" for Versed, but when nothing came up, she hit an "override" that brought up more medications, according to court documents. She searched "VE" again and the cabinet produced the paralytic vecuronium.

> Vaught had to override at least five warnings or pop-ups alerting her to the fact that she was withdrawing a paralytic, prosecutors allege. She also allegedly did not recognize that midazolam is a liquid, while vecuronium is a powder that needs to be mixed into liquid.

> During a nursing board hearing last year, Vaught stated that overrides are part of normal operating procedures.

> "Overriding was something we did as part of our practice every day," she said, according to an NPR report. "You couldn't get a bag of fluids for a patient without using an override function."

I wonder why the proper medication wasn't in the list when the Nurse searched? It's UX/UI 101 that if you nag users constantly they'll ignore your warnings as well.

It does sound like the Nurse was driving on autopilot and skipped over several things that should have made her pause while preparing the medication though.
Your answer is the only valid counterpoint, in my opinion. Since the human mind cannot perceive the passage of quadrillion years, we would have to become something else, something inhuman.

I don't know whether this is something I would wish for myself. Maybe. I like being human. But maybe, who knows?
For what it’s worth I take stimulants every day - not for ADHD - and I don’t feel like they improve my sociability at all.

Dear Client by Bonnie Sieglier. Its marketed towards those working with creative types like graphic designers,but I think it's applicable to all.
To the last point I just wanted to point out that they've recently patched a lot of the graphical issues on the N64 emulator (including texture coordinate issues and fog in OoT).

While I still feel the original quality was shameful, I recently upgraded my subscription and I have been enjoying it with no issues.
I find the music & songs, which are perfectly aligned to the dance or steps of the tiktoker, is the main reason for the addictiveness. Instagram Reels & YouTube Shorts are trying to do something similar but they are well behind tiktok's algorithm.

Now-a-days, the new filters & remakes is also very addictive.
If you wanted to publish a game for the NES, you had to go through Hiroshi Yamauchi, the president of Nintendo. He had the final veto power at the moment of publishing a game.

If he didn't like the game, the game would not get published no matter what.

This process ensured that the NES had only quality games.

Yamauchi was 7th dan in Go, and at one point was the richest man in Japan.

I think shell scripts and plaintext (maybe markdown) files is the way to do it if you're on a unix-y OS. I already have a system similar to the article but not as advanced/developed.
So it's a restatement to efficiency. Torque/load being the same, this motor has less internal losses. Heat maybe?
> Now, my sister is currently struggling with a serious issue, and as a Medicare patient (being under the poverty level), she wasn't able to be seen for months, and even now they are unable to diagnose properly due to delays in getting her referrals or tests (CT scans, etc).

This sucks, and I’m genuinely really sorry that you and your sister are having to go through this. I hope she gets the care she needs soon and that the delays don’t cause any irreparable harm.

Unfortunately, the current issues with access probably have more to do with the way the pandemic has crushed the health care system than with whatever insurance your sister is using. My experience has been that getting access to services right now is much harder than it was in 2019. I’ve had referrals take 3 weeks just to get a scheduler on the phone (plus 1–4 month wait times), physicians wasting their time chasing people up and doing their own scheduling because their support staff no longer exist or aren’t doing their jobs, labs that don’t return phone messages. I even had a clinic outright ghost me last year. It’s an absolute shitshow out there right now.

(Also, pedantically: Medicare and Medicaid are two confusingly similarly named but distinct things. Medicare is federally managed for old and disabled people; Medicaid is state managed federally assisted for low income people. You can be on both Medicare and Medicaid at the same time because Medicaid will pay costs that Medicare doesn’t, but they aren’t the same thing.)

> I feel the only way to survive long-term is to have a career that enables access to jobs (or unions) that offer health care as a benefit. Without it, paying for family-level premiums is similar to a mortgage.

I’m not sure even this is a long-term solution. A friend of mine who works for a very large financial institution as a software architect has had their premiums increase by 200%, OOP by 300%, and deductible by 400% over the past three or four years. They had to figure out how to absorb almost $10000 in new health care costs this year after the company eliminated everything except for some high-premium high-deductible plans.
Well there’s your problem right there.

Snark aside, some of the pictures don’t break the horizontal scrolling, or force the scrolling, or whatever they do to make it so that I have horizontal scrolling when I ought not to. One of the photos doesn’t scale its embed, and so it just takes up the whole horizontal real estate of the screen on iOS, causing horizontal scroll behavior that is not ideal.

Sorry, I don’t really know how else to describe it, and the site works fine otherwise, and I like the content. I hope I’m not protesting too much. I wish I knew better how to describe the issue so I didn’t seem like I’m just nitpicking. I think presentation of the content can be improved, but it is perfectly serviceable as it is.

Depends on what your ground looks like. If it's bedrock at the surface and you'd have to dynamite to clear a large patch, then drilling a small hole will be much less expensive and much more efficient.

If it is just plain brown dirt for miles down, then digging some trenches might be a better solution.

If it's a few feet of sand until you hit the water table, then I have no idea what the best solution is.
Crashing at runtime, recoverable or not, is usually not what people mean when they say type safe. Spare me the static vs strong academia. Type safe when spoken, in practical every day terms, normally means enforced at compile time with IDE autocompletion support, usually implying static typing.
Speaking from personal experience:

I felt very socially awkward in late primary school and high school. I was really afraid of being a stereotypical "nerd", which I clearly was (glasses, braces, good at class). I went to an all boys private school, and whilst I recognise the privelege of going there, I never fit in and felt like a loser. For a long time I kept trying to not appear like a nerd, but I failed and was often paralysed in social situations by the thought of not knowing the right thing to say. Needless to say, I had pretty poor self-esteem.

Eventually I got to a point where I gave up. I can't remember when exactly, maybe when I was 15/16, but I accepted the fact that I was a nerd loser and that I wouldn't have any friends or girlfriends and would probably live with my parents until they died. At the time I felt like I resigned myself to a life of unhappiness, but I was so sick of trying to not be a loser, since it didn't seem to be working.

But then the next day, going to school, I started chatting with someone who I wasn't quite friends with, and it felt easier. I later realised that by rejecting the idea of living up to other standards, I was free to be who I want and do what I want. I enjoyed maths and computers and games, and the only reason I felt bad for enjoying those things were because of other people's expectations on how I should be, or at least, my perception of other people's expectations. I still didn't like myself, but as I spent more time being my true self and not living up to others' standards, my self-esteem started to grow. I didn't fit in, but I no longer cared.

I found myself wanting to interact more with other people. I still had a lot of social anxiety, which was compounded by experiences of being socially awkward in many previous situations. But now, fostered by a level of self-respect I didn't have before, and a rejection of expectations of how to behave, I learned to trust my instincts and ignore those feelings of anxiety to ultimately connect with people.

Fast forward to today: I'm 32 and am currently changing careers from software development to mental health outreach. I still have some social anxiety, but it is far more manageable than in my high-school days. Sometimes it's worse than others, but it's nowhere near the cage it seemed to be when I was in my early teens. Not that it's the ultimate marker for my success, but I now have plenty of beautiful friends and a steady girlfriend.

I realise that this may not resonate with certain people, perhaps people who are neurodivergent and to whom "trust your instincts" isn't particularly helpful. But this was my experience and I am grateful for it.
Yes, I don't especially disagree; I also think words are most useful when they mean something consistent and precise. Nonetheless, I think it's worth separating the merely terminological disagreement from the deeper semantic disagreement. Please do see the article I found(!) in a cousin comment, by Penelope Maddy. I think it provides a very enlightening perspective on the ways in which ZFC and HoTT/UF both purport to be "foundations" and yet seek to perform different duties.
Another thing about reading "everything" ... You can a) have solutions ready before other people know they have a problem; and b) in part from that, get a reputation for knowing "everything".

Between having a very low risk of someone opening the charging port flap for a few seconds and having to pair a charging cable with the expensive “Tesla button”, I take the risk.
Life, while being fragile and vulnerable, can also be extremely resilient.

My cousin and his girlfriend became pregnant a few years ago but the fetus were stuck outside the uterus, so the decision was made to have an abortion followed by a surgical cleansing (a scrape) to make sure nothing was left. The procedure was successful.

After the failed pregnancy my cousin's girlfriend started getting her period again but it was not as regular as it used to be. The doctors attributed it to the recent pregnancy/abortion which could cause irregularities in her hormonal balance etc.

So a while after all this happened, the girlfriend one night had what she believed to be gallstone pain in her stomach. She were familiar with gallstone attacks so that was the most logical explanation. Yet, she was sent to the hospital to have a checkup just to be safe.

You might have guessed it. The nurse at the hospital quickly figured out the cause of pain... She was pregnant and very much in labor. Of course this was 9 months after the abortion so it seemed impossible to her.

So apparently the abortion wasn't successful after all, as they overlooked a second fetus inside the uterus and also missed it while scarping the uterus lining.

So the girlfriend had to call up my cousin at work and tell him he was about to be a dad and that he had to come to hospital immediately. 4 hours later their daughter was born.
No, they didn't say that was the definition in their one post.

Their math shows that those are the same number, and they didn't elaborate on definitions.

The least misleading definition of accuracy is that accuracy = 1-false_positive_rate = 1-false_negative_rate. So unless told otherwise, I will use that definition.

Excellent. 1) Takes advantage of "beginners mind." 2) Provides an outlet for notes an ambitious improver-of-things will be taking anyway.
> I think it's been misnamed and oversold.

Yep. I marvel at the "Machine Learning AI ad algorithms" that try to sell me junk. I get 3 (three!) emails a day from aliexpress about stuff i already bought ... from aliexpress. Same thing with Amazon. I bought a, lets say "toaster" from amazon, and for the next 6 months every weird amazon ad on the wide internet and every time i hit the amazon home page it's trying to sell me toasters.

I don't even see it like "it's like a child, it finds something interesting and repeats it" because even a child gives up after a week. maybe a lot of people don't see "AI" as "old tech" - even though some of the first real "advances" - and i say that with a wry smile - were documented 40 years ago or more.

It's complete and utter snake oil. There are some cute toys that AI/ML can do, i can clone certain voices passably, for instance. There's "deepfakes" where a screenshot is enough to maybe fool someone not wearing their glasses at 3 meters, on a smart phone screen. There's obviously the AI in video games, etc.

But we're a good 25 years out from a truly autonomous, road-worthy, self-driving human transport.

Someone will always have to "look over the shoulder" until then.

The day i can hire a private self-driving taxi/limo to pick me up at my house and drive me to an arbitrary location, at any time of day or year, is the day i start to tinfoil my house to prevent the grey goo from coming inside.

edit: i should note that i would ab-so-loutely love a car service that was cheaper than hiring a limo for a week, if you can even do that. If the car is driving by itself, i can sleep while it gets from interesting place in the US to interesting place, and spend most of my time awake documenting and photographing and interviewing people, rather than hating interstate 10, 20, and 40; which is how most of my "road trips" for the past 20 years have gone. I've traveled this country "a lot", and i rarely have cute stories about places i've been to because i've either been completely wiped and just slept there somewhere, or i was in a hurry to beat the sun/state police/whatever through the state. I'd love to spend a few weeks in wyoming and montana and wisconsin, but if i have to drive it, the only thing i'll publish is a couple of shots of mountains, the kids posing in front of some tourist trap, and that's about it.

I passively consume, yet nearly universally ignore and eschew all "AI" news.
I don't. Otherwise palm oil wouldn't even be an issue in the community.

The heat pump has more to do with getting off gas and oil and other hydrocarbons that are burned at the house, and switching all your energy usage over to electricity, which can either be efficiently generated elsewhere, or allow you to go completely off the grid.

Don't do it today to save money today. Do it to save the planet and help ensure that you're not beholden to $9000/hour bills because the people selling you the precious hydrocarbons have you backed into a corner that you cannot possibly dig yourself out of.

You know, so like you can't be screwed by the like of ERCOT when they tell Texans "oh, that sure is a nice grid you've got there. It would be a real shame if it were to be shut down simply because some of the electrical generating plants haven't been properly weatherized. Hmm, I wonder how many of these plants we should take offline on the coldest day of the year????"
I remember clicking around that application as a kid trying to figure out what was good about it. I never figured it out. Seeing the splash because it decided it was the default application for some random format was always annoying. But back then you kind of kept everything around just in case - sometimes nothing could play a file except for real player so you’d begrudgingly let it play it for you.

Current standard JS runtimes (e.g. V8) are faster than current standard Python runtimes (such as CPython).

Not that Python can't be made faster (though many architectural decisions of the language resist it), but it hasn't been so far, so there's little incentive to include it to a browser. It gives too little new capabilities, on top of JS.

OTOH, say, WASM gave many new capabilities, and has been included.
