Yes of course there is a lot of talk about it but it's hard to actually prove anything since studies on food are extremely hard due to the many variables that exist.

Another example is the extreme use of vegetable oils that was supposed to be healthy but as it turns out it seems like it is quite the reverse. Even if it is proven to be unhealthy it will continue to be in everything because it's cheap and makes products last longer.

I don't know how it is in other countries, but at least in my country of origin (Sweden) they have pushed a lot of oat milk for example but pretty much all milk derivatives have vegetable oil in them and a lot of it too. Then they make adverts suggesting it to be the more healthy option.
Yeah I understand why they market it that way to automakers, but I wish there was a push to show what it could do for the consumer and create demand. I would love to have an open source OS that I could customize in my car. I understand there is stuff that for regulatory reasons can't change, but all the maps and music and whatnot I'd love control over

>But they recognize that the second amendment was written with racist intent

That's a pretty weird argument; I get the Patrick Henry thing with the Virginia Declaration of Rights but that doesn't even establish the 2nd amendment as we know it.

Hell, we actually have the reasoning here in Federalist 46:

"Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence subordinate governments to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprizes of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. "

I'll read her book to see what she thinks I suppose because she's a prominent historian and surely knows more than me but it still feels strange.
Ask HN: How do you like your water?
Some like it with heavy ice or crushed ice. I enjoy it room temperature.
I deal with the FAA regularly and I agree with your overall impression. The people you deal with at the bottom/middle of the organization are incredibly reliant on existing rules/wording that when something new comes up they often seem to lack common sense.
What I’ve learned working on editorial projects
It's not correct, it's only the data on the Ethereum blockchain (Terra is on its own blockchain).
No. I did a quick check on stocks that IPO'd in April 2021. In general, it's true that IPOs from then aren't doing well. Only about 12% are positive. COIN is still doing worse than most though. It's in the bottom ~28% from that time period.
Suggesting that what neighbourhood you live in is "one decision" seems incredibly naive.
My concern is that these unprofitable unicorn companies are employing highly competent and employable engineers that other companies will want to hire.

This will cascade, causing smaller companies to layoff staff, so they can replace their low performers with experienced developers on the market at slightly higher wages.
I'll look into this.

I should have clarified, following the DNSMI process removes you from the site.
> I've never worked at Zope. Must be my doppelganger.

Same last name and first initial as your handle so I took a guess. :)

> I was referring to the ability to assign a user to one or more groups and then set, at the group level, access to a row or column. When I implemented this, I avoided using PG roles b/c I was unsure how this play safely with future changes to the hosted DB.

This can be done with Postgres' built-in role system. You can assign a "group role" to as many roles as you want (which in turn, can also be groups, or not) into a hierarchy of roles which can be used in any GRANT statement or RLS policy. Postgres used to have `CREATE USER ...` and `CREATE GROUP ...` but they are now completely subsumed by the "new" role system. Both statements still work and map to equivalent `CREATE ROLE ...` statements.
Ok, color me confused, but what does this actually mean? It mentions fedora IoT, via the centos link, which is AFAIK just another Linux distribution (something like coreos, but not coreos?). Where does that fit in a car? Is linux real-time enough, for any of the actual control plane/etc? Is it certifiable? Which leaves what, the entertainment system? What does this provide that a android fork doesn't, longer support lifetimes? It can't actually be Linux can it? I mean RHEL is considered an ancient distro and it only does ~10 years. 10 years old is basically brand new in some car circles, where people are regularly driving 20-30 year old cars. The Linux of 2042 will likely be as unrecognizable as the Linux of 1999 is today, so this has to be something else right? I guess there is a midplane for non driving, non entertainment? AKA the electric windows, door locks, etc? Does that need a full blown heavyweight OS?

Confused...
Hopefully the series finally tanks, and takes EA with it.

A biography of Admiral Lee [1] was recently published.

I've run a very small (~20) conference over the last 15 yrs and this is basically the plan. We even had it on a cruise ship one year. The friendships, and collaborations that have ensued are a testament to its effectiveness.

(To be honest we do have a few short talks and an agenda to guide the discussions, but these are mostly requirements of the funding that we've found)
I was never one to be bothered by it personally, just responding to reactions others have had when I pointed to it previously (in particular I've often defended HN and Old Reddit design vs newer trends).

That said, I think the updates will reduce the number of people that react that way.
This happens with both though. I've had Google try to send me the wrong way down a one-way street, as well as take me round the houses because it thought a two-way street was one-way. We'd need some kind of large study to say which was worse in that respect.
If your phone has a slot for an SD card, load it up (opus sounds good enough for on the go) with your collection and you can have the benefits of an old school player behind an app interface on the phone you already carry everywhere.
Small price to pay for evil politics.
I'm more suprised that a PM can up and change what a dev team is working on with such frivolity, especially one whos so green. Typically I'd rather get a commitment from a developer or development team, and expect them to ask why this random thing trumps what is being displaced.
> Why, what's wrong with the social sciences?

Said no-one arguing in good faith, ever.

As I’ve said, we’re not going to establish shared meaning.

Your belief system is a faith-based ideology totally incompatible with my own, and it’s clear that there’s no shared ground whatsoever.

You are free to subscribe to a faith in scientists. That’s not science, but it’s a belief system you’re welcome to. I’ll only object if (or more likely, when) you attempt to enforce your ideological orthodoxy by limiting what others are allowed to say.
Weird that’s it’s a MacOS app but none of the supported languages on the homepage list Swift or ObjectiveC support
Maybe the ecosystem needs to discourage unnecessary packages imports.
I'll add another:

The Institute for Justice - https://ij.org/ - a "libertarian" ACLU

I consider their core focus to be on issues that are universal and non-partisan like Free Speech, Police Abuse, Civil Forfeiture, while also veering into more partisan issues like Educational Choice. I haven't found any truly non-partisan organizations like you are asking for, but feel that the IJ fills in some gaps in cases that ACLU used to or should be focusing on, and the areas where I disagree with it "balances" out the areas where I disagree with the ACLU.
Do you know if Caddy has support for this?
There was another thread where somebody claimed it was causally consistent. I’m sort of surprised Amazon hasn’t been clearer about this, but my feeling is that they would say it was linearizable if they were sure it was linearizable. Would love to read a real deep dive on this, I checked to see if Kyle Kingsbury had looked into it yet but he hasn’t.
Never giving my biometric information to any corporation, especially in the name of "security". I'll sooner live in a hut in the woods.
No kidding. Yelp is an abysmal dark-pattern-laden product, and I avoid it at all costs. Why would anybody partner with them. It’s like partnering with GoDaddy.

> This is a pretty strange week to say that: The president nominates supreme court judges, and the rulings of those judges can make a big difference in your life: For instance, whether there's a right to abortion in the US or not.

i'm sorry, but what the supreme court DRAFT said was: "there's no constitutional right to abortion. also this should've been decided by representatives of the people".

i'm not sure why that's a bad thing -- supreme court justices should not legislate and, if abortion is such an important thing for one side of the isle, they should fight, tooth and nail, to get laws (actual laws, not flimsy decisions by non-elected officials) passed.

What I said was:

> If we need microservices to accomplish isolation of state, that suggests we got OOP wrong, very wrong.

That’s the last sentence, which summarizes my point.

As for Dr. Kay, his exact words were saying that to him at the time OO was certain concepts and nothing more.

I have never interpreted that to mean that languages or systems that do more than hiding state and message passing are wrong, just that if we say something like “OO requires inheritance,” he would disagree with our definition of OO.

After all… Smalltalk itself has a lot more than hiding of state and message passing. Would anyone claim that Dr. Alan Kay would say Dr. Alan Kay was doing OO wrong?

I think there are good reasons to design microservice architectures, but if the argument is “Let’s break up our monolith so we can hide state,” I’d say that we can go ahead and just use our existing OO tools to achieve that.
I highly recommend Notion for building a knowledge base at your organization. We have one section dedicated to company-wide knowledge, and another section dedicated to various tasks. Any recurring task should be documented fully, with screenshots or a screen recording. The upfront time investment of doing this allows you to really let go of the burdensome stuff. For any work that isn't creative or specialized, you really shouldn't do it yourself longer than it takes to document and delegate it.

Once you've got the workflow in place, finding an assistant is really just a process of elimination. You can easily find someone with C1 English skills for less than $10/hour on Upwork.

You'll need to filter through a bunch of bad ones to get to a good one, but again, this is an upfront time investment. Establish expectations early and fire quickly at the first sign of issues. Trying to "make it work" is worse than accidentally losing a good candidate.

I would also encourage you to post it as a full-time position, as you don't want to be competing with other clients (you still will, but if you're their primary professional focus that pays the rent, you won't lose out in most deadline situations).
> Fundamentally, microservices allow you to isolate state.

I think it's not really state isolation: your state is now spread across multiple separate services and a queue, which is objectively more complicated. To me, it's more the extreme version of things like dunder methods in Python or opaque structs in C: it prevents a specific type of programmer behavior. But honestly, it feels easier to solve this in code review.

Like, I agree it's bad to reach behind the public API of something, but microservices aren't immune to this. I've never worked on a microservice architecture that didn't have weird APIs just to support specific use cases, or had a bunch of WONTFIX bugs because other services depended on the buggy behavior. That's not fundamentally different than "this super important program calls .__use_me_and_get_fired__": you have an external program dictating the behavior and architecture of your own.

And you get multiple other layers of complexity here: networks, distributed transactions, separate dependency graphs, securing inter-server communications, auth/auth.

I don't think you're entirely wrong--there's a lot of history looking at state as a series of immutable updates (Git, Redux), and I think it is harder to "cheat" in this way using microservices. I just think it's far from a clear win.
And what makes traditional breeding methods any less susceptible to these goals? Or how far back in history of cultivars we need to go?
I could definitely see FTX and Crypto.com not having staying power - many companies that spend lavishly on sports sponsorships see it come back to bite them. However, over the next few years it seems likely that FTX and Crypto.com will win a lot of the growth coming from non-techies. That's not great for Coinbase.

I'm a bit skeptical of the institutional play. $47M in institutional transaction revenue is a lot lower than the $966M in retail - even after retail took a nose-dive from $2.2B. Plus, institutional revenue also seems to have taken a nose-dive from $91M to $47M. It seems like institutional investors are being just as fickle.

Notably, it doesn't seem like retail is souring on Coinbase. They have $123B in retail assets which is down from $141B in Q4'21, but up from $116B/$88B/$101B in Q3/Q2/Q1 2021. Their institutional accounts are pretty steady at $122, $92, $139, $137, $134B for the past 5 quarters, but it's not like their retail assets aren't pretty stable.

It does seem like people (retail and institutional) aren't transacting as much. Transactional revenue is down 56% and trading volume is down 44% (which probably accounts for most of the drop in transactional revenue).

If their business model is based off transactions and people are buying and holding their crypto, that's not a great position for Coinbase.

As I've said in another comment, I'm definitely not an authority on what is hot in crypto exchanges, but I'm skeptical they'll be able to get enough revenue from institutional investors where they're getting $47M in transaction revenue for $235B in transaction volume while they're getting $966M in transaction revenue on $74B in volume from retail. That's 0.02% from institutional and 1.3% from retail. That is a humongous difference in the fees there. If they did $2.3T in transactions for institutional, would they only get $470M in transaction revenue? A 10x increase in transactions while still being half of retail revenue?

Similarly, I'm avoiding the industry. There's too much uncertainty for me. Maybe people are just holding their Bitcoin, but will return to transacting in the near future. Maybe we're going to see long-term lower volume. Who knows.
Cold from the refrigerator dispenser, but with no ice.
I believe the complaint here is actually more "The ACLU is no longer defending my political enemies".

The issue is not that the ACLU is taking on causes the author disagrees with. The issue is that the ACLU has switched away from "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" thinking. And instead they are taking a few cases of "I disapprove of what you say and will therefore not defend you". Let alone the weird Heard case that seems to be "You give me money so I give you backing and legitimacy".
Google maps is still the best way to find or discover things in a city. Find a place to eat, check railings, etc.

Otherwise I really do like Apple Maps.
This is how I view it as well. And there'd be a analogous method for getting medical costs lower in America by increasing competition (within reason, I understand why no one wants to go back to the days of snake oil remedies in an unregulated free for all).

Also odd is how these HN threads on housing often devolve into redesigning a socialist utopia from scratch in America, as if such a radical revolution has any chance, when Californians can't even organize enough to get Prop 13 repealed. Removing red tape and zoning to get to a more efficient market is much more achievable.
For the record I am pro-gay marriage, but your example is BS. The baker in your example was willing to bake them a cake. They were never denied a cake. What the baker was not willing to do was bake them the exact cake that they wanted, claiming that fancier cakes were artistic expression and not the same as the standard priced on their menu cakes, and that forcing them to create an art piece cake they didn't want to make was the equivalent of compelled speech. It would be the equivalent of going to a restaurant and asking for something non-standard and off menu (say change a meal to vegan or gluten free), being denied that, and then claiming the restaurant violated your rights. Or going to an artist who sells t-shirts with their standard art and saying they denied me service when they wouldn't let me commission a custom piece that they didn't like to content of.
It seems as if they read the Dead Internet Theory and thought, "you know what, let's make that real"!
Phones come with like 128 GB of storage. Not all is usable but that accommodates like four days of continuous uncompressed music. How long do you really go without a network connection and need music for?

Also I think they playback with hardware don’t they? They aren’t running the CPU. It uses a trickle of charge just like your iPod.
I find it very convenient, because I often have multiple file manager windows open, and it’s easy to accidentally close the last window.
Also a plex user for music and have also played with Jellyfin. My impression is that in a couple years Jellyfin will be the go to but that it isn't quite up to snuff with Plex yet (especially wrt music) though some projects like JellyAmp are changing that.
Not true, the requirement is to ever have had a 3rd class medical. So yes, you still need to see a medical examiner once, but after that you never have to again.

And I'd argue it does not benefit the elderly, it benefits everyone. Instead of having to find and pay a hundred bucks to a medical examiner every two years I can now accomplish this by having a chat with my primary physician, which I see anyway, every four years. I think it's hugely beneficial to all recreational pilots.

But you're right in that the FAA had to be forced to do it.
Fabrice "Fabulous Fab" Tourre was basically Goldman's fall guy. Reasonably junior (in investment banking, VP is junior - analyst, associate, VP, director, MD) who had sent some stupid emails to his girlfriend ("The whole building is about to collapse anytime now. Only potential survivor, the fabulous Fab … standing in the middle of all these complex, highly leveraged, exotic trades he created without necessarily understanding all of the implications of those monstruosities!!!").

He was charged, but nobody else from GS, AFAIK.

You can still use a Yubikey without giving up any biometric data. And with the way the implementation works on Apple devices at least, your biometrics are only stored in the secure element on the device, never transmitted.
> “Thanks to special copyright protections from Congress, woke corporations like Disney have earned billions while increasingly pandering to woke activists.”

You know, "woke" has really become the new "commie". It doesn't refer to an ideology anymore, it's just a buzzword that has to be placed in as many sentences as possible to remind your base of all the awful people out there who want to destroy everything that is good and holy.

(That aside, I don't have much sympathy for Disney. They had no business commenting on that Florida law, no matter how much shit their progressive fans and creators gave them.)
Not all trans-identifying people use HRT. Indeed some deliberately make no bodily interventions whatsoever - see e.g. Alex Drummond, a 'trans woman' with beard, moustache, and his intact male body.

Third gender in the cultures you allude to is typically just a way of othering gay man, of the "you can't be a real man" variety. It's nothing positive to emulate.
Only reasonable move in future about cooking I could currently see is cheaper consumer grade steam ovens... And even that is unlikely be worth the investment. Induction will likely be more common, but that is just different way of heating a metal plate where you put the food.
I’ve used nothing but Apple maps for the last 3-4 years. Previously I heavily used Gmaps, OpenStreetMap and Waze. The issue with the commercial maps was that they undoubtedly would sell my data or do other horrible shit with it. OSM was janky, so I only use that when I walk around. That left me with Apple maps, which has had a bad rep for a while. I tried it and realised that the interface looks great, the actual maps are good now, I can share my ETA with people, and most of all it’s native to the phone! Another great benefit is that Apple won’t necessarily sell my tracking data. Or if they choose to, it’s nothing more than they would already have from me using the phone anyway.
I think you lack understanding on what exactly is being patented if you are continuing to repeat the “it’s just math”.

I honestly can’t fathom why software engineers think that they are unique every patent, every invention is built on prior knowledge this is why every patent has a whole section of prior art we all stand on the shoulders of giants.

But again video encoding patents have rarely anything to do with software they are far more generic than that and also predate software by decades.

Here is one of the earliest examples of a video encoding patent I could find https://www.freepatentsonline.com/3679821.html

What exactly do you find here not to be worthy granting a patent for?
Besides the dashboard and the infotainment, more recent ADAS units usually have some sort of POSIX on them. But, yes, most of the systems are RTOS'es.
It is strange that this milestone of machine learning rarely gets discussed.

I have a feeling that your typical smart software engineer (probably works on large-scale infra) became increasingly jaded re: ML, while the field continues to deliver astonishing achievements regardless.

Maybe its the usual ressantiment towards "a hyped field", which only strengthened after the advances continued and the prophecied neo-AI winter failed to happen. Maybe its compensation envy. Maybe math envy. Maybe disdain for softer " faulty" error-prone computing paradigms in general.

Anyway, as a non-ML software engineer I find the field genuinely interesting from mathematical, engineering and philosophical POV. Recent advances such as CLIP became very practical even for small-scale personal use.
