It's not a "solution". It's more akin to a lint rule imho. Javascript provides no language level guarantees. There is no static type checker or compiler to enforce these things. So we rely on linters, tests, and assertions. Yay dynamic languages.
Yes, but they shouldn't need any email for commits.
It's been quite a few years now, I tried looking for it again with no success (Google's increasingly worse results don't help either) and I'd have to dig out the Atom box to check what the files were called...

There were plenty of these tiny Atom PCs sold cheaply and they ended up in lots of semi-embedded applications, which might be why the community was so motivated to make a driver, and possibly even the initial source leak was because of that.
This sounds highly unlikely and I cannot find a reputable source for it. Could you provide one?

There have already been tons of papers that read one way or the other on that topic. Pick the one you want to believe.

1) Variants are deviating from the original germ line so the vaccines are less effective.

2) Protection by non-sterilizing vaccines is limited-duration. Getting sick and recovering isn't any better.

3) In Canada, 70-90% of the population is vaccinated, and the sucker's quite contagious. Therefore, most of the people getting sick are vaccinated because most of the people breathing are vaccinated. As another writer pointed out - tally outcomes not infections.

4) This is probably a political or anti-vax screed.

Remember, if Covid becomes flu- or cold-like, which it is hopefully the case, people can catch those things again and again. We take flu-shots to minimize bad results not to not get flu.
This only answers a small piece of your question, but it's important to realize that the mathematical notation you see is only how mathematics is recorded and communicated. Most of what goes into doing mathematics happens in your head. "Doing" mathematics requires you to know what the object of study is, and what tools have historically been brought to bear on it, and these are communicated and taught via notation. But once you've internalized those concepts, the notation doesn't usually play a significant role. Yes, you may trial your ideas with some calculations, and once you're convinced of something you need to prove it with some degree of rigor. But you don't usually set out to prove something you don't already have some reason to believe in -- it's not like the math workbooks you may have encountered in school. (I second the sibling reply's mention of Lockhart's Lament!)
Ahh yes, that’s a very good point.
Smartphone OSes are clearly designed for abuse though.

The whole UI is practically built around full screen modal apps where the user scrolls through content. Installing community made software and maintaining things yourself is artificially made extremely difficult.

I could go on, but there is a legitimate problem with mobile OSes that previous PDA OSes didn't have.
That's an introductory CS book using Python, not a Python book. That is, it's focus is on using Python to teach general computer science, not on teaching Python.

It's good at what it does, but I wouldn't recommend it if your goal is primarily learning Python.

20 - 25: Please please please everyone

26 - 30: Hey I've been pleasing everyone and everyone loves me so I should be a technical lead now. I'm quitting if that doesn't happen.

31 - 35: Hey I'm pretty much doing this perfectly but the major problem now is that the management layer has no idea how this stuff works. Promote me and I can provide insight into why things are going slow and I can help improve things.

36 - 45: Management layers and potentially vice this or chief "tech" that.

46 - 55: Most major burns and let go for new blood.

56 - Onward until you no longer want to work: Go back to development work and focus more on that getting that pool or a house out in the country. I don't care about climbing the ladder I just want that huge dev salary and take care of myself and wife.
I received an Eero 6 (free loan) from my ISP and it seems decent so far. Howevet, the lack of webUI, being forced to do the configuration entirely through a mobile app, and being forced to authenticate through an Amazon account to do anything in there rubbed me the wrong way. It's good enough for the average consumer.
Well, she's aware it's a reflection of her/not an actual dog. She also can look at me in a mirror while knowing where I am in real life, and it's pretty clear she understands which is real. I'm not sure if she maps her ego onto the reflection like a higher primate could, though.
That's "dictionary" compression still. AI checks for hints to lookup in well... dictionary. If the dictionary changes, your compression results change too.

"culture fit" is how corp america dodges people for all those racist, sexist, bigoted reasons, without having to say it.
You can.

If you write it in Go and package it as a single binary.

You can't if you write it in a scripting language that requires tons of programs to already exist on the system (a specific version of the language interpreter + a database server + other servers like redis and memcache etc etc etc).

This is a problem with programming languages, not with computer systems.

Computer systems already allow you to package and ship programs as self-contained units. That's their default mode of operation.

The prolifiration of scripting languages that require an entire environment to be configured before it can a program is something that programmers have done to themselves.
Meh. People with 100M twitter followers have garbage opinions all the time. Some trolling would probably have the consequence of people learning not to believe everything they read on Twitter.
People Graham agrees with who are encouraged to weaponize their victimization: those supposedly accused of "heresy" for their "x-ist" utterances.

People Graham disagrees with who are denied: those who speak out about "x-ist" utterances, whom he characterizes as "heretic hunters".
tl;dr: ReRAM wears out and gets slower every time you write to it. The watermark is placed by intentionally repeatedly rewriting certain parts of it until the slowness from the wear becomes noticeable.
> and not the bigger question of why so many opinions need to be so closely guarded now, when they didn’t need to be before.

But this begs the question, doesn't it? Like the real answer is that

1. Lots of opinions were guarded or hushed or held closely even 20 years ago even in much of the western world (being trans or gay, being particularly nonreligious, socialism/communism/any kind of viewpoint left of Obama, all kinds of things about dating and sex, and more)

2. People weren't generally having discussions, or figuring things out with tens of thousands of listeners. Saying really dumb things because you don't actually know what you're talking about because you're a nonexpert is common and has been common forever. But people didn't start doing this until social media.

3. Things that were previously handled by whisper networks ("This professor says all kinds of wild racist shit", absolutely something said in my undergrad, and "this prof gives better grades to women who wear short skirts in the front row", something that absolutely was said in my parents undergrad) are now handled more openly and explicitly. This is probably a globally more optimal result, in that fewer people have to deal with sexual or racial harassment. But it also means that misunderstandings can blow up.

That's it, that's the issue.
The nuclear Gandhi think makes sense as naturally occuring from people trying to extrapolate hidden mechanics and false pattern detection. Pokemon had the "Press/hold B increases catch chance" illusion despite being pure RNG in the code.
Station wagons still exist outside the US and inside the US they're called Crossovers and SUV's. The latter, remember, was bending the sheet metal a little differently so that men would buy vans.

And, to be honest, compact trucks are also SUV's. I assume they mean compact pickups...
Pinterest is one of the most recommended tools when it comes to building collections for most things art related. I’ve taken a few courses on concept art/concept development and Pinterest has been in 90% of it.

It’s used to collect references and build mood boards.

So, while self hosted Pinterest is a nice idea, it does miss the powerful part of Pinterest which is its search and community. When I want to find roman armour or steampunk vibe architecture, I don’t even have to leave Pinterest most of the time because the collections I need to find are right there.
I’m no lawyer, but I wonder if this is more of a “go away” clause and if it would survive a real courtroom. Your lawyer would undoubtedly say “don’t waste your time and money”, but I question how many of our rights we can really, actually give up in a contract.
> Don't take examples from the cold war era fight against communism as examples that indicate how the US government currently behaves.

I don’t need to. There is a literal Wikipedia page summarising most of them [1].

> Also, the US isn't imperialist.

This is historically inaccurate, but if so, then countries like Russia aren’t either.

The entire article, I didn't mean to link to a particular subheading.

And now the "plausible deniability games" begin in earnest. It is entirely possible to write a law that is ostensibly race neutral while making it apply discriminatorily. For a non-racial example, consider preferring tall candidates or military veterans as a proxy for men.

Similarly, things like requiring a drivers license or travel to an in-person voting location prevent working class people who don't own a vehicle and who work 9-5 from being able to vote without sacrificing wages (or perhaps at all!)
What a horrible comment; totally without compassion or empathy; totally self-congratulating.

What do you propose people who find themselves unhappily addicted to smartphones do? Just feel bad about their lack of "character" and wish they were you?
I would argue that there is a difference between low effort bulk spam and what OP received. The message OP received sounds like a fairly tailored request for expert advice, which is a great way to make $100+/hr to answer questions.

If you only want to receive messages from approved contacts, then use whitelists or stick to Facebook Messenger et al.
True. And the moral outrage around russia is so stupid too! What would you do to stop ukraine's nazis right? They just have to interfere in their neighbor's business.

Your argument might have made more sense if the rise of Islamic extremism in the Middle East and Africa wasn't directly related and reactionary to western imperialism. If it was true that the US cared about extremism, it wouldn't have invaded Iraq in 2003. The invasion is what led to the creation of ISIS and gave a huge credibility boost to Al Qaida in the middle east. But hey they had good intentions so it's different from the russians, right? More foreign interference will solve the problem caused by foreign interference.
Sorry I'm just going to laugh a bit hysterically now.

Zuck seems like he's a bit short on the readies seeing as how governments all over the world have just realised how dangerous he really is with his Facebook thing and are sinking their fangs (or is it hooks?) into Meta so he's gone into NFTs and all this cobblers about virtual reality.

I can't wait until it goes defunct. Good riddance!
I absolutely agree about using death rather than cases. If you test 100s of times, you will find more cases. Apart from anything, there are false positives.

However, even looking at 'deaths with covid' I think there is a problem, in that governments made a decision to count people who died WITH covid as the same thing as dying OF covid. They are not the same thing.

So, on death certificates they put covid down as the cause of death if the person tested positive, regardless of what caused the death. If a person who had tested positive but died in a car crash, this would be added to the covid death statistics. This is to say the data is 'muddy'.

Perhaps it is even better to use simple death counts, regardless of the cause. Were they up in the first year, and down in the second, as you would expect? If they were down in the first, but up in the second, there is surely a case to answer as to whether the vaccinations have caused harm.
How do any of these things help?

The space programs are not annual programs. Let's check with Wikepedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budget_of_NASA

In the recent years, the NASA budget is around 0.5% of the Federal Budget. So it's not a "rounding error".

"In 1973, NASA submitted congressional testimony reporting the total cost of Project Apollo as $25.4 billion (about $158 billion in 2020 dollars).[21]"

The reference #35 indicate that the Shuttle program amounted to 206 billions.

=> If Apollo has cost 160 billions, the Shuttles 206, how much a permanent base on the Moon will it cost? I don't know, but certainly "hundred of millions". The Artemis program to just go back to the moon plans a 35 billion budget, but no base, just to repeat Apollo.

I love space projects ; I prefer them useful with a good return of investments.

I'm another academic mathematician. I'm not really convinced that all this would be a time-saver for me as far as research productivity; maybe I'm just old-fashioned but I just have a few folders for paper notes and that's it. But certainly this could vary from person to person.

To me, the place for the real time savings is organizing your teaching workflow. If you're a grad student, make sure to get on top of that ASAP. A lot of it is very repetitive both within a given semester and also from year to year. I have a ton of scripts built up over the years for things like organizing lecture notes (especially if you are teaching a class you have taught before, you don't want to have to rewrite all your lectures), creating problem sets / solutions, inputting grades into the LMS,... I even have automatic solution generators for a few rote calculations that I assign many problems about (Gaussian elimination, for example).

My ultimate problem with all these heretics is that their heresies are ultimately just reactionary - There is a constant thread of the “good old days” and “in the past” and essentially their ideal is some past state.

It just feels a bit meh to me.

But perhaps that’s how all things are. I have a view which I think is heretical: I believe that banning organ trade is unethical and exploitative and that bringing organs to the market in a safe way is not only possible but required by us. I think it doesn’t fall into this fallacy because there is no time when this was considered except one year before NOTA passed. But perhaps you all think that is boring.
I have a Great Pyrenees, one of the more independent breeds; they're incredibly (annoyingly) smart, but don't test well because they aren't obedient. She definitely understands it's her in the mirror, but I'm not sure about how well she conceptually maps the reflection onto herself.

She did plan an escape for over a week once, but that's a different story...
I'm always curious how many users use the smart queue management feature (being one of the authors of fq_codel), or are aware that's also the default on the wifi?
* Most home connections are asymmetric and lack upload bandwidth.

* Most personal devices are battery powered and intermittently operated.

* Many are mobile in terms of physical location and logical network (home WiFi, work/school WiFi, cellular).

Having a third, highly available, high upload capacity location to stage data between production and consumption wins because it is a genuinely effective solution to problems inherent in sharing data between end users.
If your own curiosity to problem solve or create doesn’t fill that niche naturally, I highly doubt any ideas here will help. You clearly know some of the domain and capabilities of the craft.

If I were you, I’d get out of the industry. Find something else where you can enjoy your career more.
In the early 2000s there was a great Ali G sketch where he asked a national security official whether they were worried about "terrorists hijacking driving a train into the white house." The official responded "There are no train tracks leading into the white house". Ali G: "but what if they've been building them at night?"
Frankly, ageism in tech is real. They rather hire some younger guy without personal commitments (aka family). Sure, it’s changed in the past decade but I see it playing out all the time. Once you hit 40s and you have domain knowledge (and bank account) you are better off building your own thing. And to be honest, building anything below a few hundred thousand user base is not that hard at all and pretty much streamlined enough for one person to excute in 2022.
Ironically the OP can just use airplane mode and probably get the same benefits as if they built one from scratch.
The thing they failed to mention is that when it does happen, it mostly comes from anonymous actors.
There is nothing secure about email. It's less secure than Telnet.

You can email anyone on the internet as anyone and it will be delivered with NO validation. Clients may/may not validate any DKIM signature and the may/may not validate that it actually came from the domain. It's literally the easiest thing on earth to spoof.

Email is sent over cleartext, it is not encrypted. Anyone can read email if they can inspect packets.
Slack is Slack is Slack is Slack
I recently enabled email forwarding from Gmail to Slack in an attempt to make life easier for our team. I also forwarded my own email to a private channel for similar reasons. The problem with this, is that when you receive an email and it gets forwarded to Slack, Slack then notifies you by email that you have an unread chat message, which in turn notifies you in Slack that you have an unread email, which... OK you get the point!

Oh it is definitely possible to avoid this. It's kind of an arms race. The overexposed window effect might be reversed with computational photography for example. Maybe one can just lower brightness in an image editor and discover that there is a residual of the outside left. You might use "looking around a corner" like tricks on white walls, etc etc.

Ask HN: Do you think cookie prompts on websites are a bad thing?
It's very common for people to complain about how many things clutter the screen in 'the modern web', and this has definitely comes up on HN. People seem to strongly dislike cookie prompts, and I wonder what people on here think. I don't mind them for the following reasons:

For one, it's a tiny point of friction - if the site is optimized it shows up quickly and you can click OK in a second. Are we so sensitive to minor inconvenience? I thought about this just now while opening a site and having to accept cookies, and it being really quick if slightly annoying.

Second, is this not a good inconvenience to have? Another common complaint about the modern web is the lack of privacy and sites being heavy with reliance on JS and just not being optimized. Having these toggles means the site presumably has to work without cookies, which seems good?

If nothing else, it's a reminder about data about you being stored, and isn't the current paradigm of near zero privacy the results of us just not thinking about privacy and giving it up for the sake of convenience?

Lastly, the laws that require this represent protection of our data. While cookies may not be a huge deal, I do think acceptance of such measures could enable further requirements about what data is collected and can be deleted. Is this too optimistic?

If you hate them / think they suck, could you comment on the above points?
Funfact. The regulation isnt the problem, the companies simply not implementing them are. There SHOULD be a button that accepts only essential cookies, but most companies simply obfuscate it so its not clear anymore.
