Off topic, but the fact that three schools are tied for #2 and three more tied for #6 in these grad school rankings (and FIVE tied for #11) strikes me as a hilarious commentary on the arbitrariness of these rankings. Like, if you weren't fudging the numbers some, but were trying to come up with real scores, you'd have that many exact ties?
I think it’s fair to blame the policymakers, politicians and bureaucrats that made those specific decisions. Otherwise, where does it end? Perhaps it’s the fault of the parents who raised those voters. Voters are ultimately responsible, but I think they can hold the representatives they elected accountable for their decisions.
Disgust may itself be an instinct.

Fear of spiders and snakes were found in infants.

Reflexes are instinctual.

I think we have a few instincts.
Actually there a lot on business owners that can’t get mortgages because they don’t don’t have stable income reported on a w2. It can often be easier to buy cash and refinance than try to get a purchase mortgage
6th May, with the "And. And. .." crash found on Google Docs Skynet rose to the surface.
That is very cool. It looks like you actually have a lot of overlap with an identity orchestration solution, such as Strata.
That's a good tip, thanks!

Awesome. Thanks for the info. I am working on a free open source mobile calculator.
I think it’s a reasonable criticism that often the immediately “right” thing is in fact fraught with unintended consequences, and when there’s intense societal or cultural pressure to do the immediately right thing without thinking of those consequences, you could end up in a worse position than you began.
The cost of maintenance of a structure is far less relevant than the value of the land underneath it.
Im in the same boat, except Im older, but i agree with everything youve said.
> I only visit the museums on the days they're open for free to the public.

Right on, I hear ya. If museums want my money, they can break into my house and steal it, like they stole their artefacts.
Gen Z isn’t the world. US lgbt pop is 7% according to Wikipedia and that sounds high to me, maybe college kids experimenting with their identity in response to woke culture. I’d guess it’s more like 3-4%
Twitter has been very poorly run. They will enhance business mostly by improving the service (features, etc), reworking the business model (subscriptions, payments, etc) and cut it’s ridiculously bloated budget. In a few years it will be clear to everyone if they have succeeded and they can go public again. Classic leverage buyout strategy.
There are working fluids (molten salts, liquid metals, etc) that can work in this regime, typically with ceramic piping systems (usually ceramic lined nickel alloy steels) with all ceramic/graphite pumping systems. That said, it’s used in very niche applications and hard to maintain at the scale required for a CSP plant.

If you’re after heat, it would be much simpler to just use the steam. Use it as is, as we have for centuries now, or you could transfer it to a higher thermal capacity oil, and if you want some energy, divert it to a steam turbine.

For cement you could presumably use the heat as a preheater, or use the energy for an arc furnace.
The mistake these courts are making is thinking that the punishment is meant for the individual committing the crime ONLY. In fact, it is a deterrent for OTHERS to think twice before attempting a crime. Rulings like this will have a very predictable outcome: drug dealers will read about this or hear about it, and they will proceed to take advantage of it.

This has happened before. One year it was a clean city, then they announced they wouldn't prosecute quality of life crimes like defecating on the street... and the next year you couldn't walk a single block without having to avoid human feces. The amount of short-sightedness in the leadership of that city is astounding! At least don't announce it!
Interesting. Is there a way to run it from the command line?
Don't keep us hanging like this, what's the string?
$100 isn't going to get you much, unfortunately. Someone else has already suggested volcas, and they're probably your best bet for that price point - the only other things you might check out are the Teenage Engineering Pocket Operators, or one of the cheaper behringer things like Crave. That said, another direction you could head is to pick up a midi keyboard, and start playing with soft-synths to get a feel for the kinds of things you want to do. If you make sure to get one with midi output (not just USB midi) it'll stay useful when you eventually buy other gear.
They're just going to have to put these repeat dealers in jail for longer.
Why not just go through MIT's open courseware syllabus, or perhaps emailing/contacting a university teacher for guidance?
What could possibly take up 8 GB? It’s just some text display.
> They really should have indexing on by default for most columns, with the option of disabling unused indexes (perhaps even automatically).

Oracle does that. I think it is not enabled by default, but once you turn it on it's pretty much automated. It creates, rebuilds, and drops indexes based on the application workload.

There are third party tools for other databases (such as Dexter for PostgreSQL).
Looking at the course listing for UNH ( https://ceps.unh.edu/computer-science/program/bs/computer-sc... ), I'd suggest auditing (I imagine that's cheaper if you're not looking for a degree?) some of the following: Data Structures and Introduction to Algorithms, Assembly Language Programming and Machine Organization, Introduction to the Theory of Computation, Operating System Fundamentals, Algorithms, Programming Language Concepts and Features, Compiler Design, Systems Programming, Formal Specifications and Verification of Software Systems. Those are the ones that look like more formal CS, and gets you into at least an intro to fun formal/theory stuff like automata, grammars, low-level programming, functional programming. Performance Evaluation of Computer Systems and Mathematical Optimization for Applications also look fun to me, or you may be interested in some of the other electives too like Computer Vision, ML, etc.

If that's local, affordable, and easy, I wouldn't worry too much about looking for something "fancier" right off the bat, I think there's a lot to sink your teeth into there. There's a lot of stuff online too on all these topics of course, but if you're like me, that's not the same as taking a live course.
If I hire someone for $25 to mow my lawn, should that be fine if they get it done in 1 hour, but I have to pay them $50 if they are slow and it takes two hours?
I’ve waited longer for basic treatment in the US than I did anywhere else in the world and still paid exponentially more.

And all that extra time and money got me was people saying “You should be glad it isn’t socialized health care!” Yeah. If it were, I would’ve gotten treated faster and cheaper.
I did a four-year CS degree after about twenty years in industry. I learned one thing, which I do not use.

My recommendation is don't waste your time and money unless you have a specific goal in mind or want to go on to a master's program - which I also generally don't recommend unless, again, you have a very specific goal and no other way of accomplishing it.
I have a few variants of problem solving methodologies for different situations. They are incredibly similar to this post. They are also incredibly similar to the process in How to Solve It[0].

I intended to memorize the one-page summary to How to Solve It last year. I generally don't get past the first few sentences because I find them so relevant. It's like a mantra in my mind. "Understanding the Problem. First. You have to understand the problem."

> I don't really understand why it would be hard or complicated

Why would you expect a priori to understand? Or have you dealt in the past with a meaningfully comparable problem, and found it easy and simple?
The money supply expands primarily by debt, and it relies on people paying back the debt with actual value (or dollars representing the actual value).

When tightening, there arent enough dollars in circulation to do that.

But the bankers get the actual value (homes, collateral, liens on income) regardless. Lenders dont keep seized collateral on their balance sheet, so they sell it at the best price (and they dont need the max price because they already made so much on interest payments). So they push prices down in their firesales.

For the tightening money supplt and people trying to find dollars, think of it like the poison map closing in on Call of Duty Warzone.

So you can base housing prices on that outcome.
You end up in OPs situation if you type into the REPL - which you're not supposed to.

The workflow is amazing because you write the software in the editor you're used to and have keybindings for interacting with the REPL inside your editor.
So if representation is fine what do you want it to look like?

Because by your rules black people aren’t allowed to have fun fantasizing about being a pirate sailing the high seas in colonial England, a trans man can’t be in a WWII fiction fighting nazis, a woman can’t be in a medical drama about stopping the cholera outbreak.

So if they can’t be key roles (i.e. important at all to the plot) minorities should be relegated to background characters even in historical fiction?

Also what show has half the cast being trans or non-binary or whatever? I could use something interesting to watch.
Nobody defecating outside is doing it because they found out it’s not being prosecuted, they’re doing it because they don’t have any other option.
I'm pretty sure it's just kragen.
The article is in full damage control about how the data was anonymized. But they seem to be pretty squirrely about whether or not an "anonymous" device id showed specific locations and routes. Even if an anonymized report for a device excludes demographic information, it's relatively trivial to cross-reference common travel patterns to a person's home and workplace, and de-anonymize them.
Spoiler. There are no principles referenced. This is just a random list of steps for problem solving. Please provide the decisions that come out of this grand scheme so we can learn so much wisdom.
Houses may be consumables but the land that they sit on certainly isn't
I think it's more that Netflix just has poor execution on a lot of shows.

When telling a story on TV, you often want to cut the story to the bone such that it can be understood quickly and entertain without confusing the viewer with side tangents that aren't central to the story.
If a non-story-essential element is too prominent then the viewer might feel it's boring
Overvalued not necessarily mean the value of current stock has to drop. This is - an ongoing for at least decade now - cry that we don't build enough and we don't built fast enough. Pandemic obviously didn't help either.

So I don't consider articles like that a bell ringing "sell sell sell". Until we are overwhelmed with new constructions coming up everywhere, there will be more people willing to buy, than to sell.

Anecdotally, we decided with wife to pull a trigger on $380k house in Florida (decent ZIP code) just a month before COVID hit, in March 2019. We had 90 days to cancel with $2,500 penalty, pandemic scared us with possibility of builder being lawfully able to be stuck on a construction site for up to 3 years. But eventually we decided to go on because we got tired of renting. By end of 2021 I got offer for $475k, cash, and someone "stole" our plans and our builder built exactly same house next street for $450k (we went inside everything was the same so same options were selected). Then "correction" should come and everyone expected Jan-April 2022 to be a 25% cool off since market rose so much. Well, our "correction" was that prices stopped going up, that's it. Now just few days ago I got an offer by mail (they find your address and mass-mail you) for "amazing amount, just to call". Out of curiosity, I called and was told upon doing title and lean research, an Executive Manager can show up overnight with $525,000 check.

Weird times...
I recommend you email or call the admissions team for programs you’re interested in. I did undergrad in CS and business and was interested in a different engineering discipline masters after quite a few years of unrelated work. The responses varied significantly among the programs I looked at, but the admission teams were all helpful and clear on requirements & expectations.
This seems to be mostly talking about the 'new' mygov.

The new goal was to provide a unified front – users would navigate through MyGov based on their needs and goals and be sent directly to the relevant forms and info from all departments.

EG – instead of going to Centrelink and seeing only JobSeeker, or going to the ATO and seeing only JobKeeper; you’d go to 'COVID relief payments' and see a clear explanation of both, and you’d be able to apply for either one directly.

But in the beta… it’s basically just Centrelink. In the entire 'Health' section, the only medicare service mentioned is the proof of COVID-19 vaccination.

The end result is that https://beta.my.gov.au/en/myaccount/dashboard/ is basically the old mygov, and the rest of the site is a mirror of https://servicesaustralia.gov.au .
One criticism I have of Shiller is his index looks at comparable houses across time. This under estimates appreciation due to the housing stock itself becoming more luxurious. In my area, houses are about 500 sqft larger than a generation ago and have amenities like AC and often a granny unit.
And, apparently, double click on an edge without holding any keys will expand just that edge out as far as possible.
Also did OMSCS. Highly recommend it. The problem with self-learning is that sometimes you convince yourself that you understand something when you really don't.

Only when you get smacked by an exam or an assignment you realize that you've been fooling yourself.

The ML and Systems track is pretty hardcore. If you survive those you have pretty good foundational knowledge.

Fair warning though - the program is not a joke. Georgia Tech always leans towards application. You will spend a lot of time writing code and tinkering, but it's worth it if you want to learn a ton.
Was your ethernet cable surge protected?
No degree at all here. I don't think it prevented me from attaining any job.
Did you upload release assets that don't correspond to the code in Git? Because that change isn't in the repo history.

Also, have you tested that code to make sure it actually sends the email? Because it looks to me like it doesn't actually work (specifically, that getpass.getpass will still block until the first incorrect password is entered).

Anyway, here's one of the other major problems: since this runs as the logged-in user, anyone else at the computer can just press Ctrl+C or Ctrl+\, open another terminal and "kill -9" the Python process, etc. (And if you're not worried about someone else being at the computer, then why have the password at all?)
Right now I'm in this conundrum. Should I setup a REPL env (and build the missing pieces) for web dev (JS/TS) or just adopt Clojure?

Once you've worked that way, the regular way of programming seems archaic and a pita.
Maybe stupidly, but with the super segmented world we work in, with massive systems, I'd honestly rather a few certs in whatever enterprise thing we are working with.
I would agree. I think the fact that mortgage rates have essentially doubled in the last 3 months, but housing prices continue to climb tells you we’re not even close to the ceiling.
I predict that the future development landscape won't be much different from today. In the same way that the development landscape today isn't much different to how it was 60 years ago. The only difference will be faster hardware, allowing people to use even slower languages to do just enough to get typical web applications to work. Developers will still be 95% focused on their own convenience instead of focusing on the business/end user. Developers will still "solve" problems by adding another layer of complexity and copy/pasting code they don't understand from somebody else. Developers will still be coding in languages that are around today (because legacy).
Do you mean "falling into flow state was much easier" when you switched to java/ruby?
Oh come on, are you really going to look up data about populations expecting it to be low, and then because it doesn’t conform to your world view make up some reason why it must be wrong?

And the point about Gen Z is that this is where we’re heading. Millennials are 10% lgbt and growing, Gen Z is around lgbt 20% and growing. My all time favorite concert was Girl in Red who sold out a 5000 person venue in less than 30 minutes packed with young queer women in a red state. This is way way bigger than casual experimenting in college.
I'm looking forward to diverse cross compilation as well as maybe some of the exotic targets gcc supports! I'm curious if there are plans to run Crater with gcc to check for rustc parity and maybe UB quirks?
I live in a development of 115 homes, next to a development of 500 homes.

Prices are up 50% in the last 18 months.

There are zero out of 615 homes on the market and this is supposed to be high season for transactions.

It makes no sense to me.
> There’s no rule that you should be able to afford a house on a middle class income

Here in the US, if one was asked to define “middle class” from a lifestyle perspective, probably the first thing that comes to mind is “homeowner.” I don’t think it’s possible to separate home ownership from class distinctions in the US social strata.

Case in point, home ownership rate has remained largely stable for decades at around 65% of the population. That’s despite incomes being more varied in relation to actual value over time.
Ask HN: Do you use email filters/rules?
I just posted on FB for the first time in a long time and was thinking about how beholden I am to the algorithm, not knowing who will see what I post or when. Then I thought that what I love about email is that I can put rules to control what I see and when and wondered if this might be something a next iteration of social media might have.

But then I wondered: how many people actually use email filters/rules?

So I ask you: do you use email filters/rules? If so, how do you use them? And would you possibly want a similar system for non-email feeds?
This is a great documentary
In practice, many Go developers use a linter to generate warnings for things you forgot.
large writes still fail. MacOS 12.3's finder can't reliably 0.3gig or larger files to network shares. 12.2 still works.
Why would anyone pay cash for a house when even a horrendous mortgage rate is still only 6%? That cash is earning 10% easily with zero effort. Put 15 minutes of effort in and open a Betterment account and you’re likely getting closer to 20%. Cash buyers make no sense to me.

Like all of Europa, Germany and Italy have thousands of years of history together. You are using nationalist terminology that is not even 200 years old to try to grasp 2000 years of history.

At the time king Ludwig I of Bavaria acquired that bust, the nation you identify as "Italy" didn't yet exist. And that was in the early modern. For most of the medieval age, the small territories that today are within southern germany and northern italy were vassals of the same empires.

And while europa sure was almost constantly at war with itself, there was also a lot of trade going on. Who took that bust from whom and if they paid with coin or sword is most likely lost to time.
MedCon: Industry praises FDA’s digital health Pre-Cert pilot
The building itself has passed hands numerous times through questionable means. Should the Coup of 18 Brumaire count as Napoleon stealing the entire country, Louvre included? What of the subsequent Bourbon restoration; another crime or merely a rectification of the first? And what of the Charter of 1815? Or the second Bourbon Restoration?

Or is all of that legitimate because they all spoke French? (Remember, Napoleon was a Corsican!)
How do you use this approach on a team with shared code?
Western Europe is also way smaller than the united states, so I'm not sure how apt this comparison is.
I just opened my iphone 13 box and there is a paper slip that says "before use, please refer to the user guide <url>" Along with a few of the main safety points printed on the paper itself. When you start the iphone the first thing it makes you do is log in and then click through a series of tips and tricks pages but nothing stops you from clicking next through them without reading. They then put an app on the phone by default called "Tips" which explains all this stuff with images and videos.

At some point you just have to admit that there is realistically nothing more that can be done. Users don't want to read the manual because they can use their phone perfectly fine without it. They might not notice there is a nicer way to move the cursor but it doesn't really matter.

There is a manual and it comes preinstalled as an app out of only around 10 apps on the default screen and yet people still complain about the lack of a manual. I really don't know what they could do other than locking the phone until the user completes a quiz on the manual content.
