That’s just the traditional way in which the Apple ecosystem works. They provide you with a pretty phenomenal starting point and App developers fill in the gaps.

Base macOS with Amphetamine, Magnet, and perhaps some utility for file/network access provide you with a desktop experience that comes close to the productivity of a tiling window manager, but certainly meets or exceeds the features built into Windows 10 or KDE for window management. Plus you can use AppleScript if you really want to get creative with desktop management.
I mean we already have so many self checkouts now, does this really help?
If I remember correctly, a requirement for checking firearms is that the lock be non-TSA.
Some have argued that the American Revolution was fought in order to preserve slavery in the then-colonies.
Oh yeah, it's an incredibly taxing job, but part of the reason they're so overworked is because we're already short on nurses (and for obvious reasons many are incredibly burned out from the last couple of years). That's why the government should be promoting nursing training in order to get a pipeline of nurses going quickly.

Neither of them are in great body condition. Not quite as bad as they might look first off. They're a different type of cow than we're used to seeing in the US and much of Europe. The hips are always a little more sunk in than in beef cattle and maybe more than most milk cattle.
And Hellcats - this takes me back
I believe the author explicitly did the opposite of what you accuse him of doing. He even criticized the original letter from the seven because of its sweeping dismissal of Maori knowledge, and the likelihood that some of it is scientific in nature. His point is that science is a process, and one shouldn’t confuse traditional myth with this process. I think he’s right, even if in some cases the process, and its flawed instantiation, leads to incorrect conclusions in cases where the traditional story is correct.
Just want to say that here in the US, if your employer ever doesn't pay you what you think you're owed, contact the Department of Labor. There's a division dedicated to making sure the employer doesn't play games with wages. They'll show up real fast, possibly even that day, and your employer will pay (plus fines).
We did partner with China on mutually beneficial agreements, from ~1972 to to ~2015. But that increasingly seems like a mistake.
Doesn’t MATLAB have a built in h5write function to write out HDF5? There shouldn’t be much work at all to convert MATLAB data to H5. Last time I used it I had no issues with the resulting H5 files.
> It is very common for a small family in village to own a couple of cows and a big portion of their wealth is the cattle.

Which is actually the historically typical case! (Since the agricultural revolution, anyway.) The word “capital” even traces its meaning to “head of cattle”:

The iPaaS landscape was a bit more sparse back in 2015 when we started. And we hoped the breadth of integrations was always going a differentiating factor for us--something we wanted to have full control over.

Ultimately I think it was the right choice. There are enough minor but value-adding modifications we've needed to make over the years that I doubt an iPaaS could provide.

As a manager at my company, this year we were given the usual: a small baseline increase with the ability to fudge individual numbers in a zero sum way as well as a small slush fund.

The one difference this year was we were also given official talking points on how to gently say "no" to anyone who brought up inflation when they rightfully complained.
Which C++ do you want to learn? There’s a lot of history there. I’d look at various C++ libraries over the years written in the different dialects. C++ has so many variants it’s really hard to say it’s a single language as each one reads so differently. It’s like saying English is a single language without understanding there are wildly different dialects and meanings to the same thing.
I loved the ~1.5 years I got to spend at college in between deployments. Not the finest educational experience ever, but I got exactly what I paid for/expected I suppose.
"Easier" is subjective. For simple use-cases, zq is harder to understand than jq.

I also have never seen jq as a performance bottleneck.

jq is stable, I have never encountered a bug with it and I have never seen it getting stuck after years of usage. It is dependable and practical.

jq has helped me put out countless fires throughout my career. I should donate to it one day.
You are just great at just making things up.

> Because he gives a fuck about first pass yield and those things.

Do you mean he doesn't? Anyway whatever you are trying to say, fact is Tesla is producing a lot of vehicles, they are a major automaker, they are growing fast, and they have industry leading margins.

> Plus, Tesla is still almost a factor 10 away from production volumes of VW, Toyota and the like.

What an absurd argument is that? So do you think BMW, Daimler and co are also all shit at manufacturing? Because they don't make as many cars as VW either.

So in your mind, only if Tesla creates the largest car company in the world he can be considered good at manufacturing? You realize that is a totally absurd position right?

Tesla went from selling a few 100 vehicles 10 years ago to likely outproducing BMW and Geely in 2023. That means they had continues massive growth curve for 10+ years straight.

If you compare the output of individual plants, Tesla plant in Shanghai is easily one of the most productive car plants in the world and that is the first plant that Tesla ever even built.

> I don't get the urge to pass Tesla and Musk as all encompassing geniusus that know everything better than encumbents.

That not the argument anybody made. Tesla is not better at everything. But they are actually very good and anybody that still thinks of Tesla in 2017 is just stuck in time. In some important they are actually better, body structure, electronics, battery integration is just ahead of everybody else.

If you want to dislike Tesla and Musk that's fine, but your arguments about him being and idiot and Tesla being depended on marketing just don't have a bases in reality.

>>>China doesn't have a blue water navy

It's got the ships, it just doesn't have the overseas bases. It is entirely based in semi-constrained waters. The issue with the Solomons is so concerning because, much like their plans for Gwadar Port in Pakistan, it would enable the PLAN to base significant forces outside the First and Second Island Chains.

This is incorrect - iq has risen steadily with improvements in nutrition, public health, and medical science. It's mostly plateaued over the last 50 years, but it's evident that pre-industrial / pre-rnlightenment humans had a much harder life, including things that suppressed potential at an almost global scale.

We may see additional gains if there are globally adopted pedagogical improvements in both childhood education and standard parenting.

Our genetics are the same, but our quality of life is radically better, and that allows us greater potential.
When I’m feeling the most cranky and pessimistic, I feel like we’re a long ways from escaping this vulnerability.

It seems to me that we hit an enormous growth phase in the last 10 years and invited upon ourselves an Eternal September of Bootcampers and other very green developers who can’t be trusted to do more than glue components together.

Convenient, centralized package managers make these folk way more effective at delivering products in the near term, but there are too few experienced leads around to point out the maintenance and security concerns that play out long-term when you’ve committed yourself to continuously folding in unreviewed code from 1000 unpaid contributors you never vetted and who know nothing about you.

After years of “screaming into the void” (as another commenter put it), I’ve accepted that this is reality and that there are reasons for it: it produces valuable work quickly, and remediates labor pressure by lowing the barrier to entry.

But I can’t shake that we’ve loaded ourselves on a train whose track runs right over a cliff and that the correction, if it happens before we fall off that cliff, will be very expensive and jarring.
Cow smuggling is a much bigger issue, poor farmers have their cows stolen and it's their main livelihood, with fuel from manure and milk, yoghurt production.
Solar panels are less bad for the environment in regions where they'll operate efficiently for all or most of their projected lifespan. The manufacturing process is worse up front, but the idea is that this will be offset over time as the device harvests energy from the sun without creating any additional major pollution.

The trouble is that solar panels in lots of areas are vulnerable to weathering, accidents, theft and sometimes vandalism. The ones I've seen are just not very durable. I drive by a field full of them frequently and a couple times a year I see workers replacing a panel or two. I've been told they're supposed to last for a minimum of 15 years.
How much of a problem would they be if we just spent a bit less?

Power is taken not given. This is why highly competent sociopaths are magnetically attracted to founding and leading large corporations and running for public office. Once in power they use their influence in ways that harms society but helps themselves. I don’t see how a society populated by humans could survive without institutions to protect humanity from the tyrants amongst our own.
Could you help me understand what your usecases are, and where jq/zq fall short? I find the tools useful for e.g. curl'ing a request with a JSON format into, and then mapping/filtering/reducing the content into what I want. It seems pretty unix-y to me, but I'm curious what the shortcomings are. For instance, could you give an example where the pipe behavior is unpredictable?

This is just throwing the baby out with the bathwater. I love my phone, even though I don't use social media, or play predatory games, or whatever. It lets me talk to my friends all day, doesn't distract me unless I want to be distracted (all notifications are off), and entertains me when I'm bored.

Your post seems a bit "I couldn't use my phone responsibly so I got rid of it", which is fine (I can't have sweets in the house, as I'll eat them too often), but you shouldn't generalize your lack of self-control to everyone. Some people have a perfectly fine relationship with their smartphone.
That's one of the things that makes nursing so ideal as a profession - you can start as a CNA and move up, but even at that level you can do things like work as a home health care aide (of which we are going to need so, so many as folks want to age at home). You don't have to commit to education (and debt) in the same way that doctors do to attend medical school to see if it's a career for you.

I wonder if someone tried to use plain JS as a filtering language? It would be more verbose but it would be easy to remember. For example:

[1,2,3] | js "out = 0; for (const n of this) out += n"

That would print "6". `out` would be a special variable you write to to print the result, and `this` would be the input.
Sometimes emergency services will try simple lock raking or lock/door bypasses in an effort to not destroy the lock/door unnecessarily, as it can put a financial burden on the occupant. I think in some circles they refer to this as "respectful entry", e.g. https://coastalfiretraining.com/
True, but not everyone is an average person. Kidnapping is a concern in some places, some people are famous and controversial, etc.
Yeah - That's something like double the average income in Nicaragua ($650/month vs. $340 average and $230 minimum wage). That's a pretty decent local wage and will help drive additional money into the local economy in Nicaragua.

There's outrage around taking jobs from locals in Toronto, but you could do that with fully automated ordering as well (I've run into this in multiple fast food settings in recent times!).

Depends on the level of security you need. This would be enough for my personal laptop, where it's unlikely that I would be targeted by someone, even more so with the skills and time to go and bypass the protection, all that to access my hn account and the half dozen code bases I work on that are already open source. My password manager locks itself whenever I lock the computer, and my webmail has a 1h session. It is much more likely that it would be captured as part of a robbery, or stolen in a cafe, and be resold on craigslist, in which case this level of security is probably sufficient.

My professional laptop could be different if I was working on something of any importance. That is not the case, but there the risk reward is different, and I would probably keep it to password + sec key or something in these lines
"Clovis first" suppressing contrary evidence was people abusing academic processes against science.

We speak in the past tense, but there are plenty of other such abuses, ongoing.

Lawrence Krauss is calling out just such an abuse. It is not the only one. Each has to be fought, in detail, on its own ground; this one, on this ground.
So without absolving all engineering orgs of all of their inefficiencies forever, let's start with the Bus Factor.

Now, technically the Bus Factor is more about the company completely collapsing, but in an optimal organization, each person is doing something critical to the survival of the company all of each workday. They aren't spending 4 hours on Facebook or creating meaningless menu changes no one cares about. Maybe if one of them were hit by a bus the company wouldn't be completely unable to function, but their coworkers would struggle to continue to keep everything running.

This isn't really a good plan in the long run, even if it is most efficient until someone gets hit by a bus, so instead you over staff a little. You can't quite just hire N extra employees at the company level and expect them to be able to jump in seamlessly to any gaps that appear as other employees quit or retire or die, so you instead end up overstaffing by 10-20%. To every group of five or ten employees, you add an extra whose job responsibilities overlap the rest. Now if someone leaves, you have their replacement already halfway ramped up, and you can spread their responsibilities around without creating too much stress.

Now, you could just let all of your employees work 10% less hard, now that they have someone else to help lighten the load, but that's not really efficient either. Granted, some of them will find a way, and that 40 hours nominal becomes 36 hours real work and 4 hours posting on HN, but you can still add some extra work on top.

So you tell your employees that, in addition to the bread and butter work that pays the company's bills, they also have to Do Something else. Maybe there are some ideas for improving the company's core product, new types of bread, different flavors of butter to try out. Maybe you tell them to spend 20% of their time on bluesky research.

This brings us to the problem of making changes to a big, complicated engineering project. When you are just maintaining a giant piece of software, that's kind of a linear problem -- you assign a person or two to each part of the infrastructure, and they keep it in shape. When you are improving the giant interconnected pieces of infrastructure, it becomes a quadratic -- if someone on Service A comes up with a neat idea for how to make it better, they're going to need people on Database B, Backend C, Frontend D, Logs E and twelve other departments to make corresponding changes to their pieces of the infrastructure as well.

So the end result of this is that you have a piece of software that could be maintained indefinitely by 2 people, you add a third for redundancy, a fourth and fifth to iterate on new features, and three or four more to keep up with infrastructure changes in related projects elsewhere in the company.

And ta-da, your simple project is now overstaffed by 4x.

You can install sshfs via brew, but it works a lot better if you just download the package manually.

That being said, I wouldn't recommend using sshfs on Mac. I used it for about a year, and about 90% of the time it worked great. The rest of the time it would hang, just not sync, not let me write files, etc. and every couple of weeks it would break so badly that a restart was the only fix, usually at the most inopportune times.

I ended up just grabbing an old external hard drive and installing syncthing. The remote server still has all the RAID and backups and whatnot, but now I basically have a local cache on the old hard drive, so it works consistently and is fast. If it breaks, oh well, I'll get another one and sync it again.

Russians did not reached toward France, really. Also, they committed own atrocities in places they liberated. It just so happens that Russia was led by Stalin at the time - and Stalin did not had issue with killing thousands of people or comiting own genocides.

> Also, if the germans won ww2, you'd be saying the exact opposite. You'd be saying how thankful you are that germany gave you freedom from the anglo imperial economic world order.

Probably not, no. Germany was not promising freedom to people on the west. The plan was living space and genocide in east and domination under Aryan rule in the west. The freedom for French was not the plan. So, nazi in west would be remembered the same way Russia is remembered now.

And looking at history, Russia is not remembered as liberator in Ukraine or Poland or Czech Republic or Slovakia or Estonia either. Russia is remembered as the country that too away freedom, that stole and that killed or tortured people.

Exactly. There's "science" and then there's "Science(tm)". Nothing wrong with the scientific method. But there's lots wrong with plenty of scientists. In the long run it might work out, but it requires vigorous critique and engagement to shake out some of the biases. And so attitude is important here.

The "lying in wait" argument, to me, feels like it assumes that the door I enter through is really the only point of access. It may be obvious if someone broke in through the front door or the window next to it, but it might be weeks before I notice if someone forced the garage door and gained access there. There are several points of access that I wouldn't notice before it was too late for a lying in wait type attack. Most of those would require breaking glass though.
For a moment I thought that this is `glom`, which is also a tool I can recommend if you need to be doing any json processing in python (comes with a cli too). It does have a relatively steep learning curve for the advanced features, but does allow you to do interesting things like concisely write recursive parsers in the mini-dsl Glom provides.
