Thank you!

I suppose Goodreads or Oku fill that space?

I wanted something a little... visual, hence why I made this instead of using those services myself (also I wanted to learn about CSS transforms).

Since this plugs easily into Jekyll, I have structured it such that each book entry is kind of like an empty blog post. The plan is to enter my notes or review in the .md file for each book and display that somehow.
Indeed. Besides GitHub integration, Automatic Certificate Management (ACM) is actually a feature I really appreciate on Heroku. Some might describe it as glorified Let’s Encrypt but nonetheless I appreciate things like that just working out of the box
Losers don’t have legal rights. See how nazi Germany and Japan were handled after WW2.

As for “random conflict” - this isn’t a random conflict, as evidenced by the scale of (still expanding) sanctions.
Ask HN: Hotmail password recovery using landline
I am assisting in recovering the password of an elderly woman's hotmail account. She is still signed in to the Outlook app on her Android phone, and has access to the phone set up as the recovery phone number.
However, this phone number is a landline and outlook.com will only send text messages for verification, which she is unable to receive.
Trying to regain access by answering questions about recently sent and received emails also failed, even though all entered info, such as subjects and recipients of recently sent emails, was correct.
What other options would be left besides creating a new account/address?
> how cache friendly is that backing store

It's the original input buffer. It's less fragmented than creating small copies for every token. The backing store stays alive as long as there's a single token pointing to it. It's a bit inefficient if there's a lot of whitespace, comment, etc. in it, or if you're only interested in a very small portion of the tokens, but it doesn't have the overhead of a memory block per string (which is at least 16 bytes). So it depends, I guess.

I don't think dynamic dispatch comes into play in go. The strings are represented in the same way.
"Also biology is much, much more complex than "we need to make it taste like meat", both ours and the animals we eat."

I think this is a big part. I feel like throughout history we think we know more than we actually do.
Excellent points and London Reconnections is great!

I suppose the crux of my ramble was in the fact I had to invent the term "active" driver (there may be a more appropriate way to describe how low level in the feedback loop of vehicle control a human operator is, but I don't know it).

How we draw a line between who is a "driver" and why does the DLR (which is arguably pretty close to an ATO tube in terms of automation level) have PSAs whilst the tubes have drivers? If it isn't cost related is it a public perception thing (ooh this fancy train must be automatic it doesn't have a driver). Although as a passenger, being able to sit in the front seat of a DLR is very fun!

If the safety monitor human (PSA/safety driver/whatever) has to be trained and licensed to operate the vehicle in manual mode, why is that any different to a driver of a traditional mainline train? Should a traditional train driver get a higher wage because they spend more time in a lower level feedback loop?
I avoided reading the article. Haha.
Sometimes a simple "pattern interrupt" can break the cycle. If you've a habit of opening the page whenever you hop on your phone, that extra effort may be enough to push back against the potential incentive

Anecdotally, a lot of digital addictions come down to ease of access vs dopamine hit. As soon as your access method is "futz with a hosts file" or "ask your wife to unlock the blocker" (I was pretty bad), it becomes easier to break the cycle.

For those not familiar with the area, the route is a mile or so of totally straight road with passing not needed, pedestrians fenced off and no bicycles. And if there are blowing plastic bags they'll be traveling at around 70mph in the wind so no time to pick them up on the lidar.
>>No, there are no logically valid, non-religious arguments for prohibiting abortion.

There are so many reasons why this is wrong.

Under the Constitution, the tenth amendment clearly reserves powers not expressly enumerated for the federal government, to the people and states, and the only exception to that is powers expressly denied by the Constitution to the states, which defining human life as beginning before birth is not one of them.

Moreover, defining human life as starting at a heartbeat or before birth can be an entirely secular belief, your dogmatism denial notwithstanding.

>>You’ve just demonstrated that yourself, by ignoring the fact that the opinion was based on works of a professional witch hunter and marital rape apologist.

This is just ad hominem / character assassination, and not relevant to this point.

>>When the society realizes they aren’t working properly, it should be possible to fix said courts.

And you're arguing for fixing said courts through illegal acts. Like I said:

If the law is only respected and observed when it agrees with one political platform, it's no law at all.

>>And no, in US there is no working legal process for fixing the court, even in very obvious cases, like a judge protecting its wife, or just being a straight out human waste, like Scalia.

Of course there is a way to fix the courts: legislation can dictate the jurisdiction of courts, and legislatures can appoint new justices to the court, and the legislature is democratically elected.

Of course the latter takes time, as Supreme Court justices are lifetime appointments, but that is the Constitutional process, and that can also be changed if a supermajority vote for a Constitutional amendment.

Your expressions of hatred and disgust toward those who through the Constitutionally legitimate process, became Supreme Court justices, is not a moral argument. It's just a manifestation of the moral superiority complex exhibited by those on the political left who support this subversion of the law.
Oh, those pesky algorithms, they did not adapt to the good, good hardware that is so fast.

I do not like that stance at all.

Consider CPUs, out-of-order ones. They can adapt to the algorithms being thrown at them and most of the time algorithm author is not even aware it can be done. Improvements in this area are steady, about two-to-five of percents per year. Apple's M1 is able to schedule almost 8 instructions per cycle, for example, in quite latency-sensitive task [1].

[1] https://lemire.me/blog/2021/03/24/counting-cycles-and-instru...

Storage systems development is unable to produce something that is similar to OoO CPUs. You can't throw algorithm at storage so that it'll adapt. Algorithms should be adapted to hardware.

Circling back to CPUs, situation with storage hardware is very much like situation with the IBM's Cell BE architecture: hardware is fast, but nobody knows how to make concrete algorithms fast on that hardware.

In my opinion, Cell BE is slow, just like contemporary storage systems are slow. They are fast only in benchmarks.

Haven't heard of LazyLibrarian, but I've licensed this with "Unlicense" so it's effectively free to use for all purposes. Perhaps the authors of LazyLibrarian can use it in some way?
My son loved it. Now when is Volume 2 going to be published ?
I don’t think it’s problematic. Benchmarking to humans isn’t for the sake of an apples to apples comparison - that would be impossible since the human brain doesn’t work like a convnet, not even close. It’s because human performance gives a good baseline by showing what’s possible; and also because for some tasks you might want to replace humans with algorithms. It’s much more about being pragmatic than being fair.
It was really interesting to see how someone just used an analog synth to recreate the 808 cowbell. Why not, right? In the other post I made in this thread, I talk about differences in 808 cowbells from song to song and wondered if "manufacturing anomalies in the analog components accounted for this difference."

It's quite possible that some producers weren't using an 808 at all, but rather by using the methods described in your link, created their own specially-tweaked 808 cowbells in order to give it the exact sound they wanted.
The proper reaction to Ansible's use of `cowsay` is to have it enabled when copying output to file an issue or a comment on Ansible's tracker. Even better would be to use an animated ‘terminal’ gif with special effects, since the authors like fun so much.

No large company would begin using unlicensed code like that, they have many rules in place to avoid license violations. Which means anyone at the company evaluating it would see the license scheme. Most would probably switch to a different library in order to avoid the hassle of requesting budget to pay for it.
> but doesn't that mean that there is nothing particular secure about this operation ?

Not at all. The trusted signing-certificates don’t need to be stored securely since they only contain public keys.

This is typically stored in NVRAM or EFI-variables.
US and Germany might be at different stages of this process, though. For example Germany has almost 2x less deaths per km driven and the situation is even better in countries like Switzerland or Norway.

Also we’re talking about the perspective of the car manufacturer. New cars are already significantly safer than an average car on the road so it’s relatively little they can do to address many of the points since there seems to bet not so much room left for non marginal improvements in safety and FSD is a much more attractive proposition to most car buyers than “3.5% safer than the competing brand”.
Sure, and CCD chips are also better at recording information than the human visual cortex and and a shovel is better at digging holes than our hands: humans have built machines better than them at certain tasks for millennia.

These machines have brought revolutions with them, but we've stayed human regardless.
I see what you’re saying, but it’s also worth pointing out how unbelievably biased and myopic human beings are. If we only ever did what felt right in the moment without trying to take a larger view of something then we’d let really foul systems endure which cause lots of problems for those that fall outside of the worldview of whoever is doing the charity.

What I mean is, we are flawed, and sometime we need to account for those flaws by relying on systems we establish. Sometimes that might feel weird or wrong, but that’s probably because our gut instinct is to adhere the “flawed” parts of our reasoning (which are the same parts that lead humans to be racist, homophobic, bigoted, speciesism, etc.)
It is not low impact. It makes a huge difference from an investor point of view if increased revenue comes from gaming (evergreen) or crypto mining (trend at best, hype).

SEC failed to disclose the actual numbers, thus righting the wrong Nvidia has done to investors. And 5.5M is a ridiculous fine for something that the insiders benefited from multifold. They missed at least one 0. Someone should have been fired over this.

I would be curious if those insiders that made the decision have sold shares that were inflated.
I’ve owned a few 808s and sampled all of them. They were indeed all different sounding. The cowbells are one exception and sounded more like the 2 Live Crew example. Most of the variation was in the hi hat and cymbals. Which IIRC is 6 square waves and a noise source.
Most of the plant "meats" that we have today are not healthy at all due to their pursuit to taste like meat.

I would be highly skeptical that we could manage to grow enough/manufacture plant based "meat". Then we would have to somehow distribute it to all the wild animals. We would still need to find a way to prevent attacks between feedings when the opportunity arises. Some animals will kill for "fun" or practice (like coyotes killing domestic sheep).

Basically it's an insurmountable task. We can't even manage to end human suffering.
Advances in Neural Rendering
In the go source there is the use of tryAcquireSema which is similar to TryLock in src/net/dnsclient.go:

// tryUpdate tries to update conf with the named resolv.conf file.
// The name variable only exists for testing. It is otherwise always
// "/etc/resolv.conf".
func (conf *resolverConfig) tryUpdate(name string) {
conf.initOnce.Do(conf.init)

// Ensure only one update at a time checks resolv.conf.
if !conf.tryAcquireSema() {
return
}
defer conf.releaseSema()

I think this has the same behaviour except it is implemented using channels. It is used because go wants to make sure changes to /etc/resolv.conf are eventually taken into account when making DNS lookups but they don't want to check the file on every DNS lookup.

Nobody goes to jail, same as now unless you can prove negligence or intent, there might be significant fines and/or settlement money depending on the jurisdiction. But I’m not sure how is this difference than deaths caused by some design flaw in normal cars.
This sounds like a lot of fun (to me!), where do you work, if you don't mind me asking, and are you hiring by any chance?
That's a slightly "luddite" interpretation. The bus conductor job-class was outmoded by technology. More jobs are created at a higher technology level. This is how society has progressed for all history.

The thing I enjoy about frameworks like React is the declarative nature of the UIs.

I'd love to not be able to use them and to create complex UIs in pure JavaScript but it always ends up being painful where you spend more time optimising the rendering than doing any work.

In simple apps I will write UI in a functional matter in pure JavaScript, regardless of the performance implications. But bigger DOM means worse performance with this method.

When will we get to the point where we can tell the browser what we want the DOM to look like and then the browser does the diffing like a framework would?

Those goals are "research" in terms of "playing with the available tools to refine them".

On the strict technical sense, "Intelligence" in AI remains "to be able to provide some solution that could compete with that of a human solver".

On the large proper sense, "Intelligence" means "understanding".

An evaluation over reliability does not just come from test results: it also results from structural assessments.

Yes, but it's actually remarkable how bad humans are at seemingly simple tasks like recalling a short scene that they witnessed in person, or even just estimating how good their recollection is. Humans will routinely get even the most basic facts such as how many people were involved, who did what, in what order events occurred... completely wrong, while often being adamant that their account is correct. There are studies about that in the context of crime witnesses and the type of biases also mentioned in the article. A NN network might give a different answer if we apply some practically invisible Gaussian noise to an image, a human will have a different memory recollection depending on the lighting conditions of the room they're in, whether they're asked before or after lunch break...

Again, I'm on board with saying that our standards for machines should be higher than that, but I think we're underestimating how hard those seemingly simple tasks are even for humans.
To send back? How? This seems to be dependent on having universal constructors, which we don't, and probably never will, have.
> FSD is a much more attractive proposition to most car buyers

So is donating to the church hoping to secure a place in Heaven. We all fool ourselves for the sake of peace of mind or immediate gratification, the important thing is to be aware of it.

It's important to be honest with yourself and decide who are the people who can take you for a ride.

For me it's my younger siblings, the sport franchises I support, and attractive women. Because at least in such circumstances it would be a fun and worthy ride.

Being taken for a ride by Musk, Mary Barra, Herbert Diess, (insert automotive CEO), or even Elizabeth Holmes, Bernie Madoff...that's pathetic, not fun and will leave you with regrets...but maybe techno-utopianists have a different mindset and their calculus is the opposite of mine, meaning they have a contempt for the small things in life and only get excited about moonshots and pie-in-the-sky ideas even if it means getting scammed.
That this may or may not pseudonymous is mostly a coincidence. I've talked about current (at the time) and past employers, I've posted my emails in comments and my profile before, my LinkedIn, used my first and last name separately, etc. This is not an anonymous profile by virtue of any effort on my part. I think just about every account - including my discord - is associated with my real identity and uses my real name.

The GP seems to use similar naming conventions for all their accounts. GitHub, HN, Twitter, are all "lhecker." It's a pretty standard naming convention - I'm pcopley on a ton of services. So I can see how it could raise an eyebrow when you get an aberration of that norm or habit or brand or whatever you want to call it. The simple (and honestly maybe even likely) explanation is just "it's not an anonymous account I just have a different username on discord." But if you're inclined to pick up a pitch fork every now and then it's easy to take that as some sort of nefarious act.

> You are conflating, I assume intentionally, the legal proceeding bankruptcy

Wrong. The macroeconomic "fear" of disinflation is that people will not be able to make interest payments and default on their debt. This will cascade because those debt issuers also have debts of their own, and there will be an unwinding. Sometimes a good old jubilee is what you want.

Your own server running on your own connection, running off a(n extra) solar panel on your roof which you use to charge a biggish UPS - enough for keeping it alive through the night. If a SBC like a Raspberry Pi is sufficient (and that's what your description sounds like) use something like that, alternatively get something bigger. A single 450W (1x2 meters) solar panel is enough for a lot of computing. Judging by what you describe it should be quite easy to rig up a workflow using standard components which fits your bill, no need for trendy technologies which are sure to be deprecated in a few years when the new trendy thing takes up its place for a year or two in the limelight. Set the thing to automatically fetch and install security updates, only expose web and SSH on a non-standard port (add port knocking if you feel like taking that extra step) and you're set for a long time.

Running your own services is not hard, no matter what naysayers tell you. Just give it a try, start small as described a RasPi uses a few watts so you won't even need that solar system here.
I am so sick of the word practitioner.

I don't have a better alternative but something about practitioner just feels so forced and stuffy.

On the flip side I do like viewing operation of technical tooling in support of businesses as a practice to be continually improved. Most businesses don't really embrace that in my experience. If they did, even with it being a cost center, they would spend more time making sound decisions around tech being used (which would hopefully reduce the k8s mania).

I can't reproduce this on a 5.17.5 kernel and loop device. So if you're able to trivially reproduce it, I'm guessing it's configuration specific. It's still a bug, but to find it means providing more detail about that configuration, including the kernel version.

Ideally reproduce it with mainline kernel or most recent stable. And post the details on the linux-btrfs list. They are responsive to bug reports.

If you depend on LTS kernels then it's, OK to also include in the report the problem happens with X kernel but not Y kernel. Upstream only backports a subset of fixes and features to stable. Maybe the fix was missed and should have gone to stable or maybe it was too hard to backports.

These are general rules for kernel development, it's not btrfs specific. You'll find XFS and i915 devs asking for testing with more recent kernels too.

But in any case, problems won't get fixed without a report on an appropriate list.

It'd be great specially if you have experience using Zapier or its alternatives. Also during this stage if there is any particular integration/automation you like to see in the application we can discuss and include it in the upcoming releases.
