I need a shower after reading this comment. This is HN cynicism at its worst. This article is pretty pro-worker; I’d have to do somersaults to twist it as being secretly in favor of negative boss behaviors like micromanagement.
In Costa Rica it seems like for every permit or license requirement, there’s a semi-official way to sidestep the red tape if you’re willing or able to pay someone off, for not much money either. For example, the requirement for non-residents to leave the country every 3 months was easily avoided by me and my neighbors because there was an established process of giving your passport over to a particular person who would then get it officially stamped by customs and border patrol to make it look like you dutifully left and returned to the country. All it cost was about $30 USD.
Dotfiles are generally the set of preferences applied. Implicit though is also usually the set of tools installed. Generally I'd say the idea is to make one's environment semi-portable, something you can get, wherever you go.

The idea here is to have, rather than a set of configurations you can deploy wherever you go, a factory that produces ready to go computers on demand.

This post makes a lot of sense to me, & is a good exploration of what our environments are, & how they might be expanded & better able to serve, especially as we get better containerized systems. This approach is web based, and with nice integration work like Toolbx[1] I expect this sort of primed, ready-to-go, containerized development strategy being more popular. Having everything ready, but having it all still be "cattle" not "pets" allows for a lot more unchecked & wild experimentation during development.

>Seriously? Why does the CEO care so much about gender in the workplace?

Seriously, if people want to be identified as [X], why is it such a big deal? My only ask would be to plead for patience while I adjust my own thinking to catch up. It's not that big a deal. If we can deal with people changing names when they get married, we can deal with simply referring to people in a way that they desire.
This is the entire ethical basis of animal testing, except in this case, they’re at risk of actually helping the animals they’re testing.

Compare that to e.g. malaria trials where they buy mice, infect them with malaria, and then see if the malaria responds.

I’m a vegetarian because once I made the leap that animals probably have an internal experience, torturing and slaughtering them so my mouth can feel a certain way strikes me as not personally justifiable. How much worse is that? Should I go around calling everyone a monster? Hardly.

Animal testing at least has some meaningful rationale, and testing treatments for diseases animals actually have seems solidly in the realm of ethically justifiable
Yet another hit piece. The Verge is one of the single worst publications on the internet. I can believe a small number of employees might try this based on the size of the workforce, but the idea that the company is in revolt is ridiculous. For the woke scolds at the Verge, this kind of journalisim as a weapon is nothing out of the ordinary.
In SF, you usually pay facilitators to get stuff done. Nominally, these are people "familiar with the process". In practice, it's a bribery mechanism.

Sexlessness is basically always a problem. Even sex in the retirement home is important. https://therooster.com/blog/your-college-likely-has-safer-se...

Sexlessness is possibly one of the biggest problems facing humanity. Obviously there's a whole 'incel' thing going on but that's just CBC putting a name to the new issue of violence caused by sexlessness.

The fundamental blame is on all these 'patriarchy', 'toxic masculinity', 'affirmative consent', and actively disadvantaging men.

Which is interesting, there's an active attack on men and it's resulting in men pulling out of the sex market. This leaves fewer men available but women have to basically agree to 1 night stands and have no chance of long term relationships. Everyone involved in sexlessness is becoming depressed and then being given drugs to make them want sex less.

Obviously I am blaming the feminists and not egalitarians. Politically this will result in pro-family politicians to gain power.

But they wont cash in that power right away. They will continue to allow leftist teachers to teach children this absolutely disastrous politics.

It doesn't need to be universal. The need for personal computers wasn't universal when Steve Jobs was running around Silicon Valley selling the Apple I in the 70s. They didn't even understand email in the 90s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlJku_CSyNg.

> The vast majority of the general population is nowhere near this level of technical proficiency.

Right. Just like all technology, that's our responsibility as "the nerds." We take something that's complex and distill it down into something that's easily digested by people with limited or no technical aptitude.

I find it deeply alarming that the supposed technical elite that wander this site are so averse to something that can liberate and help so many people, worldwide. Even if they have the capacity to understand it, it's clear that many here haven't done their homework and are relying on second or third-hand knowledge (or at best, outdated information) to form their opinions.

Despite their hubris and narcissism, they're no better than "the general population" on understanding this.
GPU prices are already coming back to earth, thanks to both improved availability and the collapse of crypto mining.
Not OP but I used to make bots for MMOs for personal use (never sold them). I used Sikuli to write Python scripts to repeat automated tasks for me to basically grind 24/7. Sikuli was pretty great because it makes it easy to do image recognition on the screen and click on specific buttons.

I could have my bots play minigames as long as I could write a basic AI to do it based on the the objects on screen. It also won't flag any anti-cheat software because it doesn't hook into the game at all, just watches the screen and emulates a mouse+keyboard.
Looking at the portal for my local hospital and I see a "Google Tag Manager". Right below that is a "Tracking Pixel" and the URL is

Am I doing this wrong or is the tracking pixel in my local hospital sending data to ... Roku... the company that make the little streaming box I have hooked up to my TV.

This seems like one of those decisions that they will walk back within a month similar to the "hot reloading" fiasco. This makes even less sense than that because it was clear which moat they were protecting (Visual Studio proper) by making hot reloading "exclusive" to Visual Studio 2022.

But this extension, by its very nature, is for the VS Code. So, in this case, VS Code isn't being neutered to make a paid product more appealing. The only thing I can think of is that they want to keep the "secret sauce" away from JetBrains to give Visual Studio an advantage over Rider. Its really perplexing when you consider that they created LSP and DAP. And C# was one of the first languages to have an implementation for both standards which opened up the door to potential C# feature parity between Visual Studio and non-Visual Studio editors.

I just don't understand why anyone working on .NET tooling would think that this decision would go over better than the hot reloading one. Once you open the FOSS genie, you cannot put it back in the bottle without stirring controversy. Is protecting some small percentage of VS license revenue worth all of this bad PR they seem to be willing to subject themselves too?

I live in a smallholding. When the Milford Haven gas transit pipeline was being layed just by the corner of my field they found a henge. Yep, a stone circle, or the remains of it burried right in my back garden, along with countless Beaker People artefacts. The archeologists came, measured and sampled, and the pipeline now runs right through the middle of it. (It did make a curve around a badger sett though).

This is a little but old island. Spit and you'll hit history which is pretty awesome but you've got to build for the folk who are living here now.

I got the TG-16 with the CD for Christmas one year, and a copy of Cosmic Fantasy II.

That was probably the first RPG I beat on my own with no help from anyone else.

Wish I still had them as the console now sells for $1000 or more, but I replayed the game on an emulator not too long ago and it really didn't stand the test of time.

I also had Lunar Silver Star Story and Popful Mail for the SegaCD, those were great games and have stood the test of time.

I'm not suggesting we shouldn't have rules and laws and whatnot. It sounded like the person I was responding to thought it would be a silver bullet. I was trying to push back saying it wouldn't be perfect. We can improve things, but since the rule makers are also fallible there will always be loopholes and other issues.
It's not used everywhere, or not to a significant degree different to how Ruby is, which was in the example of the post you were replying to. And this isn't about haste, it's about openness. Code that is well written and passes tests can be reviewed and merged in hours, let alone days, without being considered hastily included.

Yes, which is why there's a whole network of independent lines of evidence that inform modern consensus. Our picture of the neolithic, while still incomplete, is complete enough that most of the speculation in this thread is pretty unlikely.
Exactly. A few paragraphs in I started skimming for some mention of what they replaced trays with. There was nothing. When I went to university there were plastic plates, which amounts to the same thing as trays in regard to the cleaning that the article talks about. Are they using paper dishes? Having students supply their own?

Is it? It seems like it's just acknowledging a objectively true reality. In the US getting sued for failed human medical intervention is common and costly. Courts (and juries I'm sure) don't look on animal lives with the same value as they do human lives. You might have a different value system, but the article isn't talking about your moral system, it's talking about objective reality.
> Germany elected to build out a great deal of wind generation capacity rather than refurbish a much smaller capacity of aged, ramshackle nukes. That has worked out extremely well, and they continue.

Really? It has worked really well?? Thanks to these really well policies, Germany has an unbreakable dependence on Russian has [1] and has paid billions of euros to Putin's murderous regime since the start of the war with Ukraine [2].

If this is 'really well', I'd rather pass.

In conclusion, I suggest you start looking more rationally on energy generation, I sense a lot of anger and unexplained hatred towards nuclear power ('aged, ramshackle nukes' is not a rational sensible argumentation).

FreeCAD is a sprawling, incredibly feature filled piece of software that's slowly but surely becoming bug free enough to be usable. It's really impressive how many different aspects of it are under active development - and for simple things the part design workshop is really usable.

The biggest thing I'm looking forward to (assuming it ever happens) is the selection of a single "assembly" workbench. There's a whole load of assembly extensions, all of which take different approaches. A single "official" assembly workbench would give me the confidence to sink time into big, assembly heavy designs and know that it wouldn't all be wasted by the next release.

It is a problem of supply. You're probably a person who believes in free market economics. In every market high prices are a signal that supply is constrained relative to demand. As for the quip about it not being a right to live in 'hip' cities, it shouldn't be a right either for NIMBY homeowners to obstruct housing production.
This is just one example of a much bigger issue, which is religious institutions quietly taking over secular businesses without anyone realizing it. It is so pervasive and so stealthy that it is hard to even talk about it without sounding like a crackpot. It has become a little more evident recently with the emergence of evangelical Christian activism in politics, but it runs much, much deeper than that. The LDS Church, for example (a.k.a. Mormons) has vast business holdings, all of which funnel tax-free money back to the Church. Downtown Menlo Park is largely owned by the Presbyterian Church. I could go on and on.

All of this is driven by the fact that churches are not taxed in the U.S. They are legal tax havens, and they are very much used as such by oligarchs of all stripes.

I think the person you are responding too used the wrong vocabulary. Apple mounts the SoC and DRAM together in a system-in-a-package design, which is pretty different from how thin & light x86 manufacturers solder DRAM chips to the mainboard. The proximity between the SoC and DRAM is part of what makes the M1s bandwidth possible.
You remind me that it's not the language that people use per se, it's the frameworks. Python has been around for 30 years. It was NumPy and SciPy that propelled it to the phenomenon we know today. Likewise with Ruby. I remember when Ruby was released in the mid 90's and wondering why would anyone use this language? Ten years later the Rails framework appeared and suddenly Ruby was a language that went mainstream.

Honest question - does Haskell have such a compelling framework driving its adoption? Or does Haskell suffer the "curse of Lisp" and people just create whatever they need when they need it and no big framework ever gets developed that drives adoption?

Not all of them are. Also, a company can sustain lawsuit differently and has access to better documentation to defend its products. Also, you're responsible to follow dosages when you apply them by your own, but the barber is when applying them on you.
It also costs less.

This is an absurd straw-man. Nowhere did the parent comment say anything of the kind you're arguing against. In fact, they highlighted that you should the follow the procedures and rules. This is silly.
I agree, but until something comes to light abuses could still be happening. I was mostly pushing back on the idea that a system can be created that would allow the average person to not pay attention. I think individuals must be vigilant even if we think we have a good system.

I probably wasn't as clear as I should have been.
I also intentionally go in to debt for any of my expenses subject to deductible, because my hospital offers zero-interest payment plans. I then pay their payment plan with a credit card, get 2% back, and pay it off at the end of the month.
Google did not need to write their own SCM to reach the scale mentioned in the article. Off-the-shelf Perforce served that company well enough when it had tens of thousands of engineers and millions of files. They had 11 million files in a monorepo with one 256GB machine which most of you would consider a bare bones desktop computer at this point.

Show HN: Real-time diagnosis code suggestions while typing a medical encounter
Hey HN! Abboud Chaballout here - founder of Diagnoss - where we aim to free medical providers from the mundane.

One of the tools we built reads clinicians' notes in real-time, as they are charting, to tee up diagnoses they can use for documentation purposes. You can try it here: (https://demo.diagnoss.com/) without downloading anything.

The current workflow of doctors today requires them to (1) type out a patient encounter (e.g. "patient presents with chest pain") and then (2) use a search bar in their electronic health record system to search and add the chest pain diagnosis code R07.9. If a clinician needs to document 10 different diagnoses, they are going to have to do this second step 10 different times.

With Diagnoss, diagnoses needed for documentation are teed up autonomously, so clinicians end up saving time.

If you are curious to see how it works when it is fully integrated into a clinician's EHR, let me know and I would be happy to share more. Either way, please feel free to share your feedback and/or thoughts on supporting medical providers with value-add tools below.
Even more direct :)

The border changing thing has just reminded me how bad the development process was using the commodore assembler with a 1541 drive which was horribly slow. assemble, dump image, reboot, crash, reboot, load assembler, try and work out what had happened :)

At some point I ended up with a PC running a system called, I think PDS, which was a cross assembler with dongle to push the image straight into the memory of the C64. I even think you could inspect and change memory on the running machine - it was amazing!

I recently started using NextDNS, and it's great, but was thinking about exactly this use case as I went to my allow-list yet again to add a domain so I could use some app/site, I forget which.

NextDNS is great, but occasionally breaks things depending on the blocklists enabled, so I was toying with the idea of building a utility that would show the last n blocked domains with an easy option to click-to-add a specific domain to the allow-list.

As far as I can tell, the API has what's needed.
