> A formal spec also doesn't help much for apps to use this format. There is not a huge need for portability between to do apps, and for most users to do items are ephemeral and not something that needs to be archived and revisited. Even if an app adopted this, being tied to a plain text format would likely hinder feature development, including the ability to sync across multiple devices. Beyond that, different to do apps use different systems of categorization and tagging, so really in practice I doubt this will become any kind of standardized format.

I disagree. I maintain a rather popular plain-text-based app [1] and the formal spec makes this something very very easy to add support for. Infact the only thing that could make this even easier is if there was a way to verify my own implementation.

Rethinking CRUD for REST API Designs (2021)
Another comment about the joke: I think in English the standard joke is "What's heavier, a ton of bricks or a ton of feathers?" but here in Argentina the standard joke is "¿Qué pesa mas un kilo de plumas o un kilo de plomo" ("What's heavier, a kilogram of feathers or a kilogram of plumber?".
Could that be due to the long decline of blood lead levels after the phase-out of unleaded gasoline?

Incredible that lead in the water had such a relatively small effect, though.

First Mobile DevOps Maturity Survey
OK, but that has a whole host of other issues such as the dependency that relies on the older version potentially breaking with the newer version. I think BOMs get around this issue, hence why they're so common, but then it just means that you trade one issue for the other and that's why you have different solutions. A Ruby project, for example, doesn't need BOMs.
I think we need to disambiguate between the Left-Wing, Right-Wing, the UniParty, and some reformers.

The UniParty, which contains the Establishment of both the Left-Wing and the Right-Wing, is adverse to any changes of status quo.

Both the Populist Right, and the Progressive Left are strongly in favor of reform of the system as we know it. Some Reformers like the Libertarian Right and Libertarian left may be in favor of status quo in this instance though.

But, when someone says

> For like 3 months they had control with the slimmest of majorities.

What really should have been said was

> For like 3 months the Establishment Left-Wing had control with the slimmest of majorities, but the UniParty be controlling shiz since forever.

I’m not going to claim that weed smoke is totally fine… but is all PM2.5 equally dangerous? Anyone with an air quality monitor near their kitchen can see that PM2.5 levels skyrocket when cooking. How do those particles compare to the ones in wildfire smoke or diesel exhaust?

The statistics indicating that smoking weed doesn’t significantly raise lung cancer risk when controlling for users who also smoke tobacco, despite higher carcinogen levels in weed smoke, tells me our understanding has a long way to go.

I am a mathematician currently pursuing a MSc at the University of Amsterdam in Artificial Intelligence. I am looking for an internship in SV to host my MSc thesis in AI. I was selected on an excellence program that will provide me with a Visa to work in Silicon Valley in the US, thus I don't need sponsorship.

I've worked 1.5 years as a Data Scientist and half a year as a Data Product Owner, leading a small data department. I also have first-hand knowledge of delivering a machine learning product from conception to market.

I have deep theoretical and practical foundations in machine and deep learning. My interests lie in finding practical solutions using AI in different domains such as Graph Neural Networks, tabular machine learning, and Computer Vision but I am open to any interesting AI problem. I can provide references upon request.

> Question: why must the square brackets be used[2]?

There is no technical benefit behind the square bracket notation. As you mentioned, it’s mostly for readability reasons. My take on pleasant plain-text formats is to make use of symbolic notation if ever possible, because that makes the format more intuitive to understand. The `[ ]` resemble a check box, and it should be immediately clear what that means. The drawback is that you need to type in 2 extra characters, of course, so it’s really a tradeoff in the end.
I would not want a low resolution (4K) 32" screen. Text would be less sharp. If you could find a 32" 6K for a reasonable price that would be sweet. If you are watching videos or playing games, resolution is not significant, but if you are working with text, resolution is more important than absolute size or refresh rate.

I think it just depends on your feelings about Clarence Thomas. Cogent arguments can be made about his quietness being either a positive or negative thing.
Yes, in most meetings I try to say as little as possible, especially when the conversation has diverged from the agenda (i.e. almost every meeting).
For Silicon Valley, especially in Silicon Valley, this mindset doesn’t always hold true. It’s one of the quirks of the region and the people there.

Ask HN: An API to list top coin holders?
I am searching for some API which offers a list of top holders for a given crypto coin.

Obviously there are sites like etherscan.io and bscscan.com and they have an API but they dont offer this information in the API so that sucks.

Also think about scraping it from their sites but that also sucks.

I'm afraid you're wrong about this one. Let's review how the word was used a couple years ago:

> In the six years since Brown’s death, “woke” has evolved into a single-word summation of leftist political ideology, centered on social justice politics and critical race theory. This framing of “woke” is bipartisan: It’s used as a shorthand for political progressiveness by the left, and as a denigration of leftist culture by the right.

https://www.vox.com/culture/21437879/stay-woke-wokeness-hist...

That was written in 2020. Now, as Democrats fear a red wave in 2022, it seems they want to distance themselves from the ideas they embraced just two years ago, and some claim that "wokeness" is a fiction invented and used exclusively by the right, obscuring its true history: a term invented by BLM and used as "a shorthand for political progressiveness" by progressives themselves as recently as 2020.

(We might almost overlook that two other terms Democrats are also trying to distance themselves from were casually used in that quote: "a single-word summation of leftist political ideology, centered on social justice politics and critical race theory". Before right-wing criticism of these ideas became overpowering, they were all widely embraced by the left.)
Unions are the most useful when you're dealing with monopolies. Where there is fierce competition in an industry, most workers probably feel that unions are not needed, as they can get a better paying job by switching companies within the same industry whenever they like.

So I wonder if the recent rise in union interest is a symptom of the fact that in the U.S. a lot of industries have been monopolized or oligopolized, and the union option is starting to look increasingly more appealing every year.
Not sure what you mean by "really". I guess I have heard some use of that term to mean that it works on watchOS/macOS/iOS/iPadOS/tvOS. In priciple one could create implementations on other platforms, but no one has (beyond toy examples).
It's not commutative, yes, but it should still obey the property that the relative error terms add instead of multiplying, no?

(i.e. in the parent's case of "checking that, if you add a bunch of disjoint probabilities, they're at most 1", doing that with approximate equality seems fine to me?)

Similar for me, I had herniated a disc about a decade ago and never quite got the pain to go away. I finally sorted out that I was carrying a lot of it in my hips instead. In spite of the overall vibe of it, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC_KukvZ_Co has been a huge help with that.

Still haven't gotten all the grip strength back in my foot though and that annoys the hell out of me.

Agile is a cancer that needs to be purged from the industry.

At its core, it is an obvious general philosophy based on the even more obvious concept of a small team working together closely.

Everything that gets layered on top of that exists so that people who can't program can also get big tech $$$.
Looks like quite similar to my own document / task management grammar [1].

I wrote a small library to parse mine, and built many tools on top of it, including editor support, various CLIs for task management, calendar, activity tracking, content consumption, etc.

I invested a lot of time into learning Emacs, got into using Org, but Emacs is just too slow, and I got to a point where customizing the tool for what I want was harder than building a custom tool.

The claim was that AI wasn't used in Ad Tech at all. Not the latest AI. I agree with your assessment, but to say that AI/ML isn't used in AdTech is just nonsense. AdTech, especially the last 20 years has been built on core AI/ML concepts. I also highly doubt that the latest AI tech isn't being applied somewhere in the AdTech space, but I left AdTech a while ago and am never looking back.
What's weird to me is it doesn't take a genius to guess at what an Apple monitor would have looked like.

Why can zero other companies execute on something like this? Sure Apple has advantages with scale, but it's not like they're squeezing tight margins. There was a lot of room under the cost of the Pro Display XDR.

I'm not sure why none of these other companies can really execute on high quality hardware.
Aside from me absolutely being in favor of even offensive and racist speech out of general principles, you'd be surprised (or not) by how easily "racism" can be redefined to include all kinds of things that are very, very dubiously racist by any normal definition. There are extremely woke people who consider even questioning any of their arguments about race or class as a racist act. There are cases where a person making clear cut criticisms of islam as a religion is labeled racist because of its general association with the arabic world, and so forth. The list goes on.

The number of people and public figures I've seen labeled as so called fascists or racists when their own clearly stated postures are emphatically not racist by any rational notion is large. Once some authority gains the right to prohibit racist speech, it's very, very easy for their definition of racism to shift as well.

Out of many criticisms of the U.S. that the country deserves, its mostly rigid protection of free speech rights in a formal sense is one good thing, and it hasn't led to a hell of bigotry, or at least no more so than have weaker protections for free speech in other countries.
Depends on where. Milwaukee is vastly different than the north woods, both of which are different than Madison. There are definitely parts of Wisconsin I would not move to, despite finding a lovely home for ourselves away from the cities.
Progrium Technology Thesis
The "big object" problem is solved by the persistent data structures in Clojure

https://clojure.org/reference/data_structures

These are a little slower than conventional data structures (e.g. Java Collections) but are much more efficient than copying the whole structure every time you want to "change" it. The garbage collector picks up behind you so you're not wasting unbounded space on unreachable versions of the data structures.
I feel the same. I have a 240hz AW2721D, 120hz M1 Pro MBP, and a 60hz iMac and adjusting between them is entirely unnoticeable, even though the difference is smoothness is easily visible.

Similarly, I see a lot of upset over mouse acceleration curves but I adjust to differences within 5-10 seconds of switching at most and forget about it.
Sort of - consider when Lisp originated. The heritage/age comes from a time before the research in persistent data structures happened, or even the issues with mutability were fully known. Because of that, idiomatic Lisp tends to be mutable, and no one is writing a new Lisp who isn't already familiar with another one. That's not to say immutability isn't worthwhile there, or that no Lisp standard libraries support it, but mutability tends to be the default assumption from what I've seen.
It's not difficult, all you need is a Phillips-head screwdriver. Wear a static strap.

>since even lacking long term empirical evidence we know how they work and have a deep mechanical understanding of mRNA vaccines, and they are not going to cause issues, period.

Erm, our understanding of the mechanics of COVID vaccines has changed dramatically over the period since their introduction. Initially it was thought that they provided longterm immunity, now boosters. The manufacturer said that spike proteins would not escape the muscle. Pfizers own post marketing study shows that they spread thru out the body. In short, we do not have a deep understanding of the long term impacts, as evidenced by the unexpected drop in efficacy. It may be that so-called "leaky" vaccines such as the COVID vaccines, which do not produce neutralizing antibodies result in strains with worse potential lethality evolving, as is the what happened with Marek's disease in chickens. Initially, vaccine manufacturers and the CDC alike claimed that vaccines were producing neutralizing antibodies. Now 4 out of every 5 hospitalized cases of Covid in Canada have received their 1st, 2nd and third shots.

In short, I hope you were kidding saying that.

And depending on the area, the local government, local banks, and contractors could be working hand in pocket, arranging things such that you'll need to pay out the nose, and/or go into debt to resolve the problems.

Honestly, I'd probably sneak a pex run and pay a friend of a friend and not notify the authorities if faced with lead issues, but my exposure to lead might have my brain mangled to the point that I don't care or can't effectively plan a surreptitious fix. Flint is just all sorts of fucked.
I hate to be that guy, but it's not fair to dismiss one of the best open world games released in the last 20 years, and which I believe inspired many things on Elden Ring - I'm talking about Breath of the Wild.

Just like how you're introduced to the world is literally how BoTW introduces you to it's own world (could it be a homage?), or something as simple as picking up consumables with a simple press of a button with no animations, little things that aren't in the way of you experiencing the world.

What I haven't put my finger on was how both of these games propel you to discover the world, and to find out what's above the hill or if there might be a cave in a cliff. I don't know if it's the terrain design that's actually thought through and not left to some algorithm, or if it's simply the perk of having a great brand behind these games that have rewarded us properly for exploring their previous worlds.

A better tittle would be : Elden Ring Succeeds by Ignoring 20 Years of Bad Open-World Design

Not really, when you consider that the oral argument is largely a ceremonial performance.
All of the documentation is provided in advance and scrutinized by the nine justices and their 36 clerks. The judges themselves discuss the merits in far greater depth than the short oral Q&A for the record.

That said, love the oral arguments and have probably listed to and read more than a hundred. They are usually pretty easy to fallow and far more balanced and informative the media summaries
Logical fallacies are only fallacies when they are presented as if the conclusion follows by logical necessity from the argument, as in a mathematical proof.

Often "logical fallacy" is taking to mean "bad argument", but that not necessarily the case. A slippery slope argument can be a reasonable and valid argument, it is only a fallacy when presented as if A by logical necessity leads to B. But most debate arguments does not claim to be logical proofs in the first case. "Anytime A have been done in the past it has inevitably lead to B, therefore it will happen again". This might be a very good argument, but it is just not a logical proof that A will always and inevitably lead to B.

That's why you only use the least significant digits of any number that comes from a sensor.

So if the temperature changes from 65.78614329 degrees to 66.24667182 degrees, you don't take 65 and 66, you take 329 and 182. Those digits are most likely to be random noise and not something an attacker can manipulate at will. Even if the analog part of the sensor is stuck at the same temperature as in your example, the digital reading will probably fluctuate around that value with plenty of random digits.
