"Facilitate wellbeing"

This seems like a reasonable goal, but it is not actionable advice. "Prefer one on one meetings" is actionable, and it tends to enable you, as a manager, to facilitate wellbeing.

Forgive me for quoting my book, but this example is worth thinking about:

-------

Great news! You just raised a round of investment! You are flush with cash! Now you can hit those ambitious goals that you excitedly promised to your investors. In six months, you can go back and tell them that you totally crushed the numbers — not only did you make your milestones, you blew past them. The investors will be so pleased! Now we just need to tell your head of marketing to ramp up the customer acquisition! Luckily she has a genius for this kind of thing. Oh, wait, here she is now, walking over to you, about to say …
… oh damn. She just quit? That was unexpected.

One-on-one meetings are useful for many things, one of which is that you aren’t likely to be ambushed by a surprise resignation. There are many personal issues that might cause someone to quit, and these will never, ever be mentioned in a group meeting. Burnout? A divorce? A spouse with a job in a different city? A child failing in school? A parent who is dying? Interest in other kinds of work? No one shouts that stuff in a group meeting, but they might tell you when you are one-on-one.
I think you mean public key rather than private.
Most people don't care about anti-white racism so much that they'd stop watching a TV they liked because of the choices of actors. That isn't evidence that it's not actually racism, the definition doesn't depend on viewer counts.

Is there someone that has said this before?

Oh boy, yes. Just search for 'racist maths' to find endless discussion of it. For instance here's Ontario editing maths textbooks to put woke nonsense at the start:

And California:

Here's a British university jumping on the bandwagon:

These are just random examples. There are many more.
Also technology wise its not 2022 everywhere, if you know what i mean.
Many poorer nations suffer from inferior infrastructure, which could mean slower loading / processing times for https based webpages.

I remember reading an article along these lines a few years ago when arguing against using https absolutely everywhere.
And Ps. I say this as a teacher, a cognitive scientist, a computer scientist, an education researcher, and most importantly a parent whose kid’s teachers have (thankfully rarely) forced his kids through the KA video tunnel of drone, which I’ve had to subsequently un/re-teach nearly every single time. (BTW, KA “lectures” are quite often, IMHO as a teacher, simply wrong in approach. It’s like they took a standard textbook and made a video out of every paragraph. What a nightmare. Even a book would be better - at least you could flip back and forth.)
> According to Wikipedia, XHR was introduced in 1999, 4 years after JS was introduced

Your way of commenting on XHR in this paragraph...

In this environment, it’s understandable that JS was generally seen as a toy language and not something you’d write a full app in. The most common thing you would do was include jQuery, throw together some scripts for a few UI widgets, and call it a day. As time went on and XHR was introduced and popularized, people started to put parts of their UI flow into a single page, especially for complex flows that required multiple back and forth interactions between the client and the server, but the majority of the app stayed firmly on the server.

...where you are talking about jQuery already being a common thing, which implies at the very least 2006 but more likely 2008-9, and then writing "As time went on and XHR was introduced and popularized", suggests the idea that XHR somehow was introduced much later, when jQuery was already common.

This is what I was referring to. It may have not been intentional, but the way you comment and present it suggests a mistaken timeline.
Related, was it difficult to just write this static page in plain HTML/CSS? They come with not breaking stuff and the web by default.

We really need to unbreak the present before unlocking the future, or the future will still be broken.
And that problem was foreseen by members of British Parlament two centuries ago [1]:

On two occasions I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.

Probably a lot of physics and materials questions.

Y'all got any of those...superconductors yet?
Except those videos don't have the adaptive learning, practice exercises, and tests that KA has. Maybe the videos are higher quality, but introducing the material is only part of education, you also need, planning, assessment, and practice, which is where KA is unparalleled.
TIL about JPEG XL itself, looks pretty cool. Thanks!
Sounds like this particular piece of news is underwhelming, but from my own casual experimentation, JPEG XL delivers much better quality vs compression ratio than Google's WebP (and the lossless compression is really good too).

I look forward to the day when JPEG XL is widely supported by web browsers.

For everyone not familiar with OS8: Please try switching a window to list view and drag it to the bottom of the screen until it snaps as a spring-loaded tab. This is so much better than anything Dock, etc.! Also, marvel at the tear-down process menu at the top right, which accepts drag-and-drop.

Correct...

Creating new keys and using those will also enable you to create multiple accounts on there.

Also, I think this service might need a reserved username list. admin, abuse, cgi or even ops, help, spec ..or ?foo=42 are all available and possible right now.
Initial reaction is positive, but as with Blow's Jai, it seems like a programming language for the authors, and there's nothing particularly wrong with that; the ideological stance re FOSS, probably excludes it from any general purpose conversation, which is disappointing. Though, nothing stops interested parties from forking to support proprietary platforms, although the outcome may be disappointing 4 the authors if such a fork picked up a zig head of steam.
Denmark, Finland and Sweden have it. Not sure about Iceland and Norway. They also have something similar in Germany IIRC.

Maybe. But I feel like I wasted so much time when I was at school, playing around with others, not motivated to learn (but I did), sometimes feeling behind on some topics while feeling bored/ahead on others. We were all envious of having rather A than F, or stressed when we underperformed, but being "cool" was not about having the best grade. And being cool was part of the "culture" - totally pointless in retrospective. I don't know if online schooling might have been better but clearly when thinking about it, on site schooling has been filled with a lot of inefficiencies that maybe online schooling is doing better. I guess at least that parents have to be behind in order to "coach".
You can use the likes of https://www.mailgenius.com/ to test an email and it'll let you know why it's hitting the spam.

It can be anything from trigger words in the subject/content to the email being image heavy etc.

Usually checking the headers of the email when it's been sent to spam can identify why.

Nonetheless, VERY exciting technology. Will be interesting to watch as it matures.
Usually you'd have a set-like storage of n-tuples/structs per relation, as a row/tuple of a relation has fixed arity. Tree-sets of rows, for example. But you could just use SQL tables as a storage engine with one table per datalog relation.
Sounds (ahem) a lot like Audio Pixels, from about 10 years ago. I wonder whether anything real ever came out of that?

At least looks like they have a web page, https://www.audiopixels.com.au/.
oh wow, this is going to make things more accessible!
> Sorry but a “framework” used by one project (especially not broken out into a separate subproject) is not a framework. That’s just infra code.

Infra code that over time, as your app grows, takes on more and more of the features of a framework
It's kinda wild to see people here dismissing this.

The US equivalent to the ACCC is the FTC is absolutely toothless and ineffective. The ACCC has teeth and has had real impact on many industries. For example, ISPs were essentially forbidden from saying their plans were "unlimited" unless they actually were unlimited (which they never were so there were no "unlimited" plans, which is fine because they were all fake anyway).

This particular complaint is about something relatively minor: misleading messaging about cancellation fees. Like do you think that didn't happen in the US? Where's the FTC action and settlement on that?

As for the fare estimation part, it's hard to say what the impact of that was.

The only US equivalent to this is a class action lawsuit where the lawyers get paid (a lot), several lead plaintiffs will get paid something and everyone else will get a check for $2.35 in 8 years after printing out a form and mailing it in.

Even in the really egregious cases like the Equifax hack, the cash settlement part was capped at $31 million [1].

My garage door opener uses a “rolling code” to prevent these sorts of playback attacks. I would assume they’re pretty commonplace nowadays?

I remember reading a text file back in the early 90s downloaded from a bbs that had plans for a master garage door opener. Seemed like magic.
There is sort of something similar at our company only the clients are internal. Most of the work at my company is boring. The biggest draw to my company is flexibility and food benefits. The billable hour tracking sounds miserable to me.
I'd ask "Which tech or disruptive startup from 2023 onwards is now a massive success, and when did they start offering shares?"

Once back in my own time, wait and invest accordingly, then reap the profit.
My own frontend JavaScript progression path was:

- "simple" JavaScript to implement fancy menus in the Macromedia Dreamweaver days (css :hover wasn't supported across browsers at the time, as I recall)

- DHTML scripts copy pasted from these Hotscripts back in the day

- backend frameworks that spit out HTML + JavaScript (Rails I think did this, as did symfony 1.x which was heavily inspired by Rails), at the time the library used underneath was PrototypeJS. Which then I used on many other projects (was never a fan on jQuery)

- knockout.js, as my first "heavy" library I've used to SPAify complex pages

- angular.js starting in 2013, then Angular (2+) on followup projects

- Vue.js starting in 2020

- today, going back as much as possible to vanilla JavaScript

The projects I've worked on avoided the mainstream libraries most of the time, and I definitely wish I would have gotten my time back for the time invested in angular.js/Angular, even if I learned those on the job.

That's basically 5 different eras for me, and I'm circling back to the top.
> Could it disrupt the hifi speaker market?

Most likely not. The sound quality will probably be far below what you get with normal speakers at the same price point, not exactly what audiophiles are looking for.
Could likely compensate that with digital EQ, though.

How do I calculate a factorial

Completed Text:
How do I calculate a factorial in a SQL query?

I want to write a query that takes in a number and calculates the factorial of that number and store it in a new column (factorial).

A:

You can use recursive CTE (Common Table Expression)

Example for 10 (10!)

WITH FactorialNumbers(fno)

AS

(
SELECT 1
FROM (SELECT 1 AS fno) AS n
UNION ALL
SELECT fno + n.fno * n.fno
FROM FactorialNumbers n
WHERE n.fno < n.fno + n.fno
)

SELECT fno AS [Number]

FROM FactorialNumbers

Output:
Number

------

10

55

140

1365

17715

243290

> Let's say we have two neural nets, one that can recognize cats, and another that can recognize dogs. How do we connect these two neural nets together? One solution might be to make the two networks send their output to some central coordinator that could evaluate the input and come to a decision based on the output from both networks.

GWT wasn't really a javascript framework - granted it was more of a framework than something like emscripten, but from a "developer writing code conforming to a defined framework structure" perspective, there's not a huge amount of javascript involved.

Furthermore, there really wasn't very widespread "community" use of GWT (mainly Google, and outside of that, mainly oldcorps working at similar scale to JS-ify old corp codebases), and even Closure was mainly leveraged by the community as glorified early babel / webpack type tooling, rather than a full range of things, e.g. Clojure.

All that said, calling React a "framework" is a big stretch, which makes the title questionable while one is reading through the components section, so I guess one could get away with including a few not-framework-ey things.

But... overall I don't think the author's age hampers them as much as you make out: when I started programming in JS circa 2002, nothing existing in that ecosystem was really comparable to today's frameworks, so comparing them here would add little.
I another effect (besides prefetching which was just mentioned, and likely many others) is that SSDs stripe data across multiple chips for parallel sequential access, but you might end up negating some of the benefit of that if you end up accessing the same chip.
It's important for marketing. Also, it can help get verified, which certainly helps if you have a book to sell, or you'd like to offer lectures, or you'd like to become a "thought leader."

Older doors are wood. Most of the newer doors are at least metal covered wood.

They do make metal blades for Sawzall. Without and exposed edge I don't think a Sawzall would be that effective. It would probably work, but would take while to get started until you get the tip through.
The norms are, and should be, what the United States considers norms.

It was built in America, by Americans, and now, is about to be owned by an American. And like America, everyone is (should be) welcome... provided you honor our Western traditions of free speech.

The one lesson of the past 2 decades that I’ve taken: do not adopt a JS framework for your production env. until it reaches industry-wide acceptance.

It may end up fine but it has a good chance to be an expensive horror show.

In my experience, only jQuery and React have obviously passed this bar.
Ask HN: I have no idea what is being said in meetings?
In large companies' meetings I've noticed that 95% of the time I've no idea what's being said. And it never comes back to bite me. It's same people who always go on and on. In smaller companies this wasn't the case people spoke like humans and in story style... Not helped by obscure agile lingo... Instead of saying abc is gonna work on this... They'd say: xyz story is blocked and abc is going to invest in it
> I mean that E-ink business practices are the biggest (the hugest even) obstacle to a wide ePaper adoption. They pretty much own all of the most important patent and you only see progress in the products in the consumer market when they expire.

What business practices exactly? Hopefully you won't cite the one HN post made by a throwaway account 2 years ago as evidence, or the blogs that refer to that HN post as evidence and then other HN comments that refer to that blog as citations. Do you actually know real details or this is just your impression of things?

I work in the display industry and I keep seeing exactly your type of comment on HN. Everytime I see it, I ask a simple question. Which patent do you think is blocking progress in electrophoretic displays? I've never gotten a good answer. It is always nonsensical like "all of their patents" or "http://patents.google.com/search/eink". See my comment history. I'm guessing you don't actually work in the display industry and know anything specific about electrophoretics, right? You realize it is the equivalent of me coming here and then saying "Intel's business practices are the biggest (the hugest even) obstacle to wide x86 adoption" or "Google's business practices are the biggest (the hugest even) obstacle to wide search adoption" and then saying "They pretty much own all the most important patent".
> Even the most irritatingly bureaucracy obsessed box ticking country, i.e. Germany, would accept a transcript with two college courses per semester as a university preparatory high school.

It would not necessary. They want recognized diploma and may recognize diploma from this school (and likely there is a process you can follow). But, transcript from two college courses per semester is the thing that will make it on itself.
True, but if the frequency response already drops off that heavily at 1kHz you're going to need some very serious amplification to use it for anything other than speech, even after applying DSP - which I'm guessing defeats the whole purpose of the speaker in the first place.
The market probably has a few reasons, journalists simply speculate about what they may be, as are you.

My initial impressions back in 2013 when I started using Go was that it's development environment was annoyingly opinionated (the GOPROJECT env var crap, which is now gone). I was mainly using C/C++ at the time and for smaller tools python. Go with it's static binaries however looked like a very interesting python alternative, so I tried it anyway, and found a language that was very easy to dive into. Took me only a few days to really feel comfortable with it, which surprised me a bit.

My main take-aways, other than what is mentioned in the article:

* it was a lot easier and even a natural thing to dive into other people's and even the stdlib's code. I had been coding in C/C++ and the only time I did that was when I was tracking bugs. Now I just do it to figure out how things are done or even out of curiosity.

* libraries are source-code only. This is great for developers, and is a large reason for the previous point, but some businesses are hesitant towards this. One thing to always keep in mind here however is licensing.

* while not actively encouraged, the way you write Go pushes you towards writing reusable libraries, with just a small wrapper frontend. You see this in many larger projects you can easily integrate many in your own application.

* the standard library is fantastic, and contains a lot more than many expect, but clearly shows what the target audience is: operations and backend development.

* dependency management used to be garbage, this has massively improved. Not perfect, but better.

* Cross-compiling is a breeze. Coming from C/C++, this blew me away. Even when using CGo, which complicates things a bit, there is pretty good tooling around this.

* It's very opinionated, but most of the times, in my opinion, right.

It ended up replacing pretty much all my need for C/C++ code, except for embedded Arduino-like hobby stuff, and I haven't looked back. The main valid thing I've seen people complain about is the lack of a decent multi-platform GUI library, which I don't need, and is always a mess anyway. Web-frontends are a thing though, and goes hand in hand with Go being pretty damn good at backends and APIs.
Plaintext vs HTML email is an interesting one - I found that getting deliverability to MS 365 from a very low volume, self-hosted email server was actually improved by sending in HTML format, as opposed to plaintext.

This was the exact opposite of what I expected, but every other reasonable variable was controlled as much as possible.
sesearch -A

That shows the list of what labels are allowed to do what to which labels, so run ps -Z to get the label of your process and grep the sesearch output for it, and that will tell you what labels it's allowed to interact with and in what ways.

selinux is generally pretty straightforward, but it has a reputation for being impenetrable which puts people of trying to learn it.
It is too short a timespan; the year 2500 would be better. Statistically I'll even make it to 2050. But yeah, it's so short that I think; what to invest in long term and memorize the larger financial/crisis recession points (there should be maybe 3-4 before that time). Obviously there are things that can jump out on your travels; if there was a nuclear war then you'll know or a significant other event and you can learn the dates and prep for them.

I would be more interested in knowing what people would figure 24 hours in 2500 though.
