I always informally understood "wet" as something having (excess?) water. In that case, I'd say water is not wet because wetness is the result of adding water to something dry, which doesn't apply to water itself.

For water to be wet you'd need "wetness" to be a property you can substract from it, and yet I don't think "dry water" is a concept that exists.

So I'm going with "no".
Hmmm; I remember DMOZ (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMOZ) in pre-google times, when finding anything on the internet using the existing search engines was so difficult that such a catalog was really useful. The feeling of joy I'm experiencing now seeing this new website makes me wonder if that's a sign that Google Search did indeed degrade more than I wanted to admit to myself...
Feels like a fun intro to comp.sci exercise would be taking texts from ancient languages and writing compression schemes, n-gram analyzers, regular expressions, and symbol call graphs for them. It's a bit like the apocryphal story of some old hackers in the 80s "decoding" a Chinese takeout menu (Jobs/Woz?), but it could get kids interested in archeology in a way that is smarter than that alien TV show.
I did a pilot project together with the SmartFrame guys around 2016 and I remember we also discussed this technical weakness of their DRM back then.

But it turns out, it doesn't really matter in practice. You removing the DRM from the image is a completely different legal aspect than you saving an unprotected JPEG. Circumvention of the DRM is easier to sue for than pure copyright infringement. SmartFrame's business value is that it protects just enough for an IP insurance to cover you, while not slowing things down unnecessarily with better encryption (that won't stop determined techies anyway).

Also, by "recovering" the image in this way, you strip it off IPTC copyright metadata which makes your copy illegal to use in the UK, for example.
>They cannot see the data because they have chosen not to see it. That is different than being unable to see it

It's different in terms of security, but in terms of competition, which is what network providers complained about, there is no difference at all.

Ask HN: What tools do you use to keep track of your finances?
I recently got married and between me and my wife we have multiple brokerage accounts, 401k accounts, HSA accounts, other investments, credit cards, etc.

I am curious if there are any existing tools that can consolidate this information in one place. I am currently working on setting up an excel sheet, however, this will only give me a snapshot of our finances as they are today. Ideally, I want something that can refresh the data periodically.
We can't precisely simulate a bicycle either. Inability to simulate something physically does not matter imo.
As I understand it it's not so much the labelling requirements per se, but rather that the FDA needs to approve the formula, including the label, and that takes times. For example the FDA probably wants to test that the nutritional content on the label matches what's actually in the product, or that it's not adulterated. This is fairly reasonable under normal circumstances IMO.

Some other requirements (like not having enough linoleic acid or iron) are perhaps more problematic than just the labels, and allowing formula which doesn't quite meet the requirements is a kind of unfair competition (that they happen to be imported from the EU is not really important as such).

If individuals have agency over their working conditions, it might encourage such thinking to extend to other areas of life. Such urges are better characterized as seeking the anonymous safety of "being part of something," which has the added benefit of reinforcing the herd instincts at the same time.
And Erlang programs running can use them all, too.
Yeah. I sure don't want to be judged by some of the things I said when I was 13, or even 20. I said some pretty stupid things. Did some stupid things, too.

I agree; that's what they're doing. But isn't there some virtue also in not judging adults for the stupid things they said when they were kids?

I love reading through link directories. There's something so personal about how we curate the internet.

My linkroll[0] has been evolving for a few years now, and it's been a nice way to organize the sites that I want to remember. Every once in a while I'll go back through the list, and inevitably some of the pages are changed or even offline. It makes the internet feel alive.

I guess I should have editorialized it. Good point.
The front page of the book directly links to https://github.com/0xAX/linux-insides/blob/master/CONTRIBUTI..., which makes it abundantly clear that this is the author of the book.

The word you're looking for is "pseudonymous", which is a very, very, very different thing.
Surely the dentist owns the copyright or has agreed to forfeit it through whatever contract they have with the equipment company? If a photographer takes a picture of people they have no claim on the copyright.
Could one invest in hawks, owls or snakes?
Yes, my question was intended to lead to the answer of “the 1% having to pay them”. As in UBI will give lower wage workers a better negotiating position from which to extract more wealth/power from the 1%.
In my country in Europe the solution is quite easy: I have the right to get all papers and images from my doctors within 10 years of creation.

But I have to pay the doctor the expenses, if there is some work involved (like burning a CD or buying a flash drive - bc of security reasons they don’t let you connect yours, you need to buy a new one).

If you have some kind of 3d images (also dentists create them nowadays), there is usually some kind of licensed viewer software on the disk, where you can view just your own images. And as far as I know, the doctors don’t have to pay a license fee for it. It’s included with their software. And it is a feature they need, to comply with the law, that they have to give images to the patients upon request.
Surprisingly little excrement before hatching, compared to what comes after. And even that is less ugly than what happens when the magpie gets the chick before it gets too big. My current approach is allowing them to breed but sterilizing the eggs with a quick round of cooking. I feel sorry for them when they are close to giving up (how much conflict between hope and growing doubt fits into a pigeon head?), but just removing the eggs will lead to a another attempt and sometimes I'm away for long enough to allow them to get from zero to hatching

(that's how I learned about the magpie situation, was away long enough to have an entire laying-hatching sequence after leaving when freshly sterilized, I suspect they gave up early, magpie discovered and took the abandoned eggs, remembered the spot and came back to the chicks after the next breeding attempt - pure speculation but the schedule would just fit my absence)
I have a hard time accepting unknown people or organizations own any part of my health data.
You’re not wrong.

I think a big part of this problem is that people need to know why they’re choosing a dependency and what problem it solves, and if that aligns with what they’re building properly. For example, if you choose redux, why are you choosing it? Why choose it over the context api in react with built in state management, or zustand, jotai, or etc. In any stack you should be able to answer these questions, not just JS in the browser, but my experience is that a lot of JS teams haven’t determined this properly. It’s a recipe for struggle because they end up using more dependencies and in house code to band aid the fact that their tooling doesn’t work well with their software.

The result is that the wrong dependencies and too many of them are used. This makes everything from building to testing to maintenance harder. A great goal on any team is to minimize the number of dependencies used in the first place; they’re often looked at as necessary to solve various problems, but they might not be at all.

Some degree of trouble is inevitable because the JS world is kind of crazy, but it doesn’t have to be bad.

See the authors’ talk[1] and essay[2] for how this improves on MPS and uses a different principle (the representation Tylr edits is not exactly the tree). For example, MPS does not permit you to select “2 + 3” in “1 * 2 + 3” but Tylr does.

At the same time are basically putting your trust in one company (apple) in this case to not do scummy things.
But as pointed out this can be a way of helping themselves hold and expand various market positions.. which may or may not be scummy too. And who knows where they’ll be what they’ll change in a few years when the need to increase profits.

Im not supper trusting of any of these big companies. I don’t love regulations but we seem to be headed to some weird monopolistic place.
Exactly as you say, the fact that many signs are shared by Linear B and Linear A has been known for at least a half of century.

What I understand from the review of the book is that after a more thorough analysis of the graphic variations of various Linear A signs, many more signs inherited by Linear B from Linear A have been identified than before.

Having better and more phonetic readings of Linear A texts increases the hope that the Minoan language could be identified and understood, even if this remains highly unlikely, unless more Linear A texts would be discovered.
Would it be copyrightable in the first place?
There's ways around it.

As of this writing, youtube downloader sites are mostly not hosted in the US due to this same issue - so if you can get one to work, it works around the GeoIP block. (Note: I got one to work, but it quit 4gb into the 6gb download)

The better way - which I am happy to be patient for - is to wait until someone rips it. I like to a few weeks later see if I can find the UK broadcast (usually a torrent), since a few years Graham Norton was the MC and was lightly poking fun of everyone the whole time.

I see no reason to distinguish the position as between a medical image and any other image. (IANAL etc.)

The person who shot it owns the copyright, except, as it was created during employment, copyright is probably owned by the employer.

An analogous issue comes up in a more familiar context quite often, being wedding photography. Even if I hire a photographer for my own wedding, the person who takes the photographs owns the copyright. Even though I paid them to take the photos, they own the copyright, unless a release was expressly stated in the contract.

For a usual camera and the image produced by that camera, the person who operate the camera own the copyright of the image.

So, the person who operated the X-ray machine own the copyright of X-ray images.

But... in my country, it probably doesn't have a copyright in the first place. The Japanese copyright law said copyrighted works are the one which creatively express the thought or emotion. Medical images requires no creativity. Two fully-qualified X-ray machine operators are expected to produce the same images.
Employers are not fungible. In certain fields, there are a small number of high-prestige employers. It makes more sense to organize in support of remote work than to leave.
Not to sound sarcastic/mean here, just my way of thinking - If four days a week is better than five, why not three? Why stop there, why not two days a week? Wouldn't the metrics show that workers are "happier" only working two days a week for five days worth of pay? Wouldn't the metrics show that workers have a better life outside of work if they only have to work two days a week? Of course they would be. Does that mean we should do it? Does that mean it's what's best for us?

What would the long term results of our country working less be? Do you honestly think if we stopped putting as many days of work in that we'd be just as productive? What would the long term happiness of the workers be when the results of everyone just not working as much finally impacts our economy/country? Do you honestly think there will be no impact?

The research also don't seem very impressive. It's like the UBI studies where they just give a small group of people free money every month for a while, and those people say that it made them happy, so apparently that's all the evidence we need that it's a good idea, because they were happy. Of course giving free money to people makes them happy. Of course paying people the same amount for less hours of work makes them happy. That's not the point. My questions are a) does it actually work at scale, and b) does it produce good long term results.
There are two possible extremes for the implementation of generics: full monomorphization on one side, and dictionaries on the other side. Both have serious drawbacks: monomorphization is faster, but produces bloat, and dictionaries are slower but don't produce bloat. Go chose to combine the two for a middle ground. It's a bit more complicated to implement than just monomorphization or just dictionaries, but it provides a nice balance.

This seems pretty dumb and an excuse for doctors to have expensive systems to retrieve and disburse records.

It should be near zero to deliver these records. Or at least marginally zero.

I’d rather records be free electronically and let healthcare providers plan for this.

Having costs discourages information sharing, I think.
I have a solution to our expensive computer problems! Blow up all of the computers! Boom. No more computer problems.
My understanding from talking is that internally they set a high bar for telemetry data, which includes non correlatable data through techniques like data slicing and differential privacy.

In the case of private relay, I believe they are using privacy pass such that a token indicating authorization is anonymous on use. So say, Apple knows who someone is, but Cloudflare and the like who do the actual producing can only tell that Apple authorized proxy access and (for HTTPS) what domains are being accessed.

So Cloudflare in this example may be able to get some statistics of use and share them with Apple, but it will be more about the relative popularities of pornhub.com and cnn.com, and not what percentage or who frequent both.

Sure, this is the trap of thinking of computer science as either being about computers (machines) or about science. As mostly a kind of pure discrete mathematics, we need to be careful.

Consider an algorithm which says:

while(true) state *= +1, state *= -1, state *= +1, ...

Now, identify the +1 state as the earth when in one-half of an orbit, and the -1 as the earth in the other half. And therefore the position of the earth as the logical bit ("the state") and its movement as the change to the logical bit.

This is "perpetual motion", but the technical name in physics for this is inertial motion, and its common. Motion itself doesn't require work, using that motion for work, requires work.

2 tea pots to this gentleman, please.
The answer is complete. I just make some additional explanations here.

1) is totally generics unrelated.

package main

type T1 int

func (T1) M() {}

type T2 T1

func main() {
var t2 T2
t2.M() // t2.M undefined
}

The fishTank should be defined as

type fishTank struct {
container[fish]
}

instead.

2) is a temporary restriction, among many in the Go 1.18. Some of the restrictions will be removed from future Go versions.

Does anyone here realize that only possible way to get big ROI is/was crypto?
I mean for retail and talking about 10x or more. Since any other startup deal is not available for retail by law in USA and many countries. So if anyone really wanted to take big financial risk with their own money, only way is/was crypto.

Example how bad it's in stock market is recent tech IPOs and their funny returns since IPO day. Many crypto actually offered public returns, where you could buy in big exchanges follow for months of volatile price, take profit in between until recent crash, so before that it was possible to make it. If one can spend time to understand returns in last years.

For example, Uniswap has a working product, it's so popular and shared their tokens with users and after token release, it publicly returned more than 10x. See yourself https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/uniswap

The context clearly was computing, and not cooking, right? It’s not surprising that the term “low power” is relative and thus overloaded. But if you bring cooking ovens into a conversation about computers, then a beefy desktop with two GPUs burning hot would be considered low power.

I don’t know that there’s a standard definition, but in electronics I think it’s most common for “low power devices” to be referring to sub-watt power levels. There’s regular low power like Arduino, or ultra low power like in this article that consume at most milliwatts or microwatts.
If the only reason to do anything is because other people think you should, you better hope they have empathy for you.
