I mean trust in a communications sense: the amount that a listener believes your message when you say something. The purpose of communication is, ultimately, to change minds. If your audience has lost all trust in you, then your message will be treated as complete noise, and regardless of whether you say X or Y, it will have zero impact on a listener's belief about X or Y.

If your trusted friend says "I'm in trouble and I need a loan", you probably believe them. If a spam email says the same thing, you probably won't.

Employers and employees are on an equal footing in terms of this type of trust. Whether you're speaking to your senior manager or to your new hire, you need to establish that your words carry factual meaning. Fail repeatedly at that, and you'll end up on a mental spam filter.

When Enzersdorfer-Konrad says "There will not be any kind of massive layoffs within Bitpanda", the impact of that message on employees is proportional to how much trust Enzersdorfer-Konrad, and Bitpanda, have earned. If they have a record of lying and deceiving their employees, then such announcements are complete noise. There's not even any use in uttering them.

Telling such a blatant lie -- or, to be charitable, an overconfident wrong prediction -- costs credibility that has to be earned back the hard way. The next time Enzersdorfer-Konrad says something, even if he really means it this time, it won't carry weight. He'll have to build, or rebuild, a strong record of honesty before people listen to him again.
The thing about this kind of take is that there isn't really one bus hurtling towards one cliff. Climate, biodiversity, water pollutants, sustainable agriculture and extractivism... these are not orthogonal, but often run in different directions nonetheless. And then there's civilizational issues...
All of the ones I've seen specifically say "RECORDING IN PROGRESS" on the screen. Could they be lying? Sure, but I doubt they are.
It’s seems more reasonable to use 26 year old actors to play a ~16 year old high school students than 11 year olds.

Daniel Radcliffe on the other hand was actually 11-12 when playing an 11-12 year old character. By comparison Tom Felton as Draco Malfoy simply didn’t fit nearly as well because he was a 2 years older. https://fantasytopics.com/harry-potter-cast-real-life-ages-d...

>The US's constitutional system doesn't work well in a polarized environment

It was also designed as an inherently change resistant system to support an alliance of states. This is why super majority vote thresholds are common opposed to simple majority votes. Change in many areas was intended to require more than 51% popular support. You see this in the Senate, to a lesser degree in the house, and the way the president is elected.

Some see this as minority rule, but it was intended to be rule of the status quo unless there was broad support for change. This is what is out of line with modern expectations

> The Electoral College is part of that, but it shows up in several other places (like the existence of Congress itself).

I'm not an expert, but I would say that the existence of the Electoral College mostly reflects the practicalities of trying to run multiple simultaneous elections within semi-sovereign states that have their own voting rules. The existence of the Senate (especially before the Seventeenth Amendment) is a much better argument for the founders' resistance to direct democracy.

> It's a more fundamental change than many people realize, and takes a much more nuanced evaluation than just "democracy good".

You're absolutely right, and I too have my concerns about reforms like the NPVIC (in particular how it clashes with states' efforts to adopt RCV). My personal preference would be for a more modest reform like the bipartisan Lodge-Gossett Amendment proposed in 1950. By keeping each state's apportionment of electoral votes unchanged, it introduces fewer moving parts, while still encouraging more citizens to vote.
Yeah, it probably explains why a lot of Americans had not heard about them.

Yes, but credentials should either be long lived with (very) limited scope _or_ short lived with required scope.

For example, for AWS you can create long lived credentials for users which are scoped to only allow one operation, namely obtaining a short lived token (with the aid of a hardware token such as a Yubikey) with scope to perform other operations.

I understand your complaint in the larger context of popular culture. But in the context of Dune, which takes place 1000s of years in the future, and in which there exist a genetically manipulating pseudo-cult group of witches/spies who are desperately seeking the ascendancy of humankind to a higher plane of existence, it is slightly more reasonable that Jessica Atreides looks the way she does, as a hyper attractive concubine that was intended (you might say "designed") to eventually develop the bloodline of a pseudo-god. But that also only really makes sense if you're invested in the narrative.

The real kicker is that Paul probably should have looked younger. In the novel, he arrives on Arrakis when he is 15.

Cyclotomic polynomials are incredibly standard in the field.

We know what to do about climate change - stop emitting greenhouse gases, most notably carbon dioxide and methane. Any strategy that doesn't address that on the scale that is required can be immediately dismissed as noise. That leaves relatively few options, and those are well enumerated. Probably we need to do all of them.

No one is forced to use it - you can always switch distro.

I also use hyperbole as a rhetoric instrument but in text seldom works.
Indices also can be extremely large. For example, a

SELECT foo, bar, baz FROM quux WHERE foo = ?;

will be fastest with an index on foo that also stores bar and baz (once the index entry is found, the engine won’t need to do a disk seek to the row data). If that table is large and you run

SELECT foo FROM quux WHERE foo = ?;

(Edited after zimpenfish’s remark about a copy-paste error)

more frequently than the former query, just creating an index on foo alone may be the better choice. Whether it does depend on lots and lots of factors such as query distribution (is it worth it to make the monthly report twice as fast at the cost of running many other queries 1% slower?), disk speed (if you move a database to SSD you should revisit all indexing choices), and disk space.

With advanced SQL engines, there’s way more choice. Maybe, it’s best to create an index on the first n character of a string field, or an index that only works for equality searches, not for phrases such as foo < 3, etc, or an index on only the data from last month (can be done in some databases with partitioned tables)

Ah ok. I think I greatly overestimated how long those tanks last for.
Totally agreed with all these points.

It's interesting (to me at least) because I have ended up using Arch for all my personal servers and workstations and it has been pretty rock solid! Although, I typically use containers for running all the applications I care about -- which might lend to the stability I have seen with my systems.
million mt? Is that million megatons? And which rare earth elements are they?
I appreciate that Realtek can be an issue, but on a few PCs they works solidly with Alsa so seems unlikely it's the kernel driver (restarting pulseaudio would bring it back, at least for a while). So it seems to me the issues are very much with Pulseaudio (rather than with the kernel).
You'd think someone would solve that problem, I guess all those techies in California really are stupid.
There should be a simple standard way to fake/limit all permissions.

For example, the app wants to access your contacts. Instead of "yes or no", you choose a subset of contacts that the app is allowed to see: could be all, could be none, could be a selected set (perhaps a special set of fake contacts). Whatever you choose, the app is told that these are all the contacts that exist on your phone.

If the app wants to access the camera, the options are: actual camera, always black pixels, a selected static picture, a selected picture that is shaking to add extra realism. Whatever you choose, the app is told that this is the actual camera.

If the app wants to access the disk, you could specify that a new directory should be created and the app would be told that this directory is the entire disk. Etc.

I do think GRRM is struggling to tease the rest of the story out, but I don't think that was the problem at all with GOT. The key plot points were all basically fine. It just all felt so rushed and totally unconvincing. Daenerys going mad and Bran ending up on the throne are reasonable enough directions to take the plot, but the show completely failed to develop either of those things, so when they did happen it just felt forced and not believable.

They also did a bunch of other annoying/bad things that deviated from the early seasons (bringing along a bunch of nameless characters on adventures to just to kill them, wardrobe and makeup went in a frankly absurd direction for no obvious reason, emphasis shifted to "wow" moments in episodes instead of paced out plot, just dropped a bunch of story lines that were interesting, etc).
> Beren and Luthien would make a fantastic tale as well.

And the fall of Gondolin. And the Children of Húrin. Though not with a happy ending, both of them.

Still, Gondolin has a great journey, love, betrayal, and an epic siege with mechanical dragons and balrogs.

Húrin is more of a greek tragedy than an American TV series, but I'd still love it.

> The II was a dead end. The 65816 was not a nice ISA to program for.

I mean you make this statement like its some kind of technical roadblock. Which might have seemed appropriate in the early 1980's but with a bit of digging would have been understood to be false.

There have been various proposals for 32-bit 65816's, and it wouldn't have been any different than any of the other architectural extensions done to other processors (never mind the conversion from 6502->65816). Modal decoders (ex: Arm), prefix bytes (ex: amd64), virtual execution modes (ex: vm86/i386), etc all provide a method for building a new architecture while maintaining backwards compatibility with the old.

This stuff is an economic or business decision. At Apple apparently it was a political/business decision, rather than anything technical. They could have (as the IIGS proved) just have created an mac like experience on the apple ][ line, while maintaining software compatibility. None of it would have been "pretty", but that is almost always the costs associated with evolving a technology stack. It took roughly a decade to evolve linux from a UP kernel to a SMP one without the BKL. In that time, and some of the results weren't what anyone would call pretty.
Yeah, I know, line goes up when taking the population average. Must even point in the direction of ads watchers and clickers. Taking into account the shitty videos this cost function promotes, I honestly get a little proud of this algorithm not working for me.

It's possible to have a scenario where your synchronization process (involving Google Cloud?) somehow changed the modification time of your files so that both copies in src/ and dst/ have the same timestamp, in that case rsync will not notice they are different (if they also have the same size). Like the other reply said you have to use rsync --checksum or -c to force rsync to compare the content of files.

Microsoft SQL Server query analyzer was was essential in identifying missing indexes. Wherever you saw "full table scan" on a table, you knew it was missing an index.

From my point of view as an old guy who remembers the hell of init scripts, what they did was make an alternative to remembering arcane details of how each os and distro chose to set up their scripts. This:

* made debugging a random system a lot more straight forward

* made putting up software for packaging a lot easier

* made customizing the start-up of a daemon a lot easier (this ties in with the first point)

* made it so I didn't have to go to the guru who's only job seemed to be managing our obtuse set of init scripts that were extra baroque because order of startup really mattered.

That guy I had to go to - he was an asshole an lorded his knowledge of arcana over anyone who brought him a question. I'm 90% sure he made it intentionally complex since he didn't have much skill beyond memorizing those silly facts (this is the same guy who got an entire project reassigned to me because he couldn't understand the concept of functions when I removed some extreme repetition from a python script he wrote). Most of the systemd haters remind me of this guy.

I guess what you're implying is that he helped automate away dead weight and that made the leeches mad?

GDS do some good work. All the government pages I've come across have a simple, consistent, legible interface. Sometimes it's a bit tedious because there's just a lot of text, but they manage it pretty well. They seem to make a point of having specific "Start Here" type buttons for filling out forms, which is a sensible idea.

I've not yet had the time or mental fortitude to implement something more non-trivial like N-queens or a Brainfuck interpreter, but perhaps eventually!
This technology was used by a German entrepreneur approximately 15 years ago. He collected waste heat from industrial sites by storing it in trucks loaded with sand and then shuttled it to public swimming pools for heating.
Yeah but isn't the absolute measure the one that matters? Because the ozone is blocking UV radiation, and it's the absolute amount of ozone that determines how much radiation is blocked, not the relative amount of ozone in one area vs another.

At best, the relative measure might act as an early warning of a problem. But it could also just be turbulence in a chaotic system. So it's harder to decide if it matters or not.
Plenty of things "should" happen but the systemic problem that if solved would alleviate these issues is to make sure people live near enough to good schools to elide the need for driving children to school in the first place.

I think it's fair to say that there are a large number of front-end and "full-stack" (insert whatever definition of full-stack works for you) who frequent HN. If you were to ask a group of lawyers which part of HN could use the most attention - they might suggest stronger wording in the TOS or Privacy Policy. If you asked a group of ML/data scientists, they might suggest an improved API for programmatic access. If you ask a group of front-end devs, it might be perfectly obvious to them that it needs the latest whiz-bang stack - and a custom Electron client too!

And I'd disagree with all of them. HN is great because it does one thing and does it well. It might not have found the global maximum, but any deviation from this particular local will likely involve a lengthy exploration of minimums.
While we are here, is there a service that provides me with list of newly uploaded youtube videos?

Is there somebody who scrapes them youtube and sells the data
Got it. I'm asking because I worked on something similar. The idea was to unit test some Airflow workflows locally. The production workflows were using Hive, but having a local Hive container was too slow for tests, so we wrote a small parser to translate the Hive queries into SQLite queries at runtime. In the end, we had a decent PoC but couldn't complete it because of all the Hive features, but it was super fun.

Ahh...well there is the famous saying, "I decide who is a Jew." It was used on the head of the German Manhattan Project and a Jewish head (like a headmaster some shit) of a concentration camp, forget which one. And that's why we say "German Manhattan Project" stedda "Americaner Atomwaffenunternehmen" (I made that word up, it is correct in German to make words up, that means atom weapon undertaking), because German antisemitism amounted to forfeiting the bomb.

That was the price, the defeat of their last hope against the Allies. All of the Great Jews that slapped those firecrackers together were exiled due to antisemitism: Fermi, Szílard, Einstein (to get the president to read the letter to get the Los Alamos show on the road in the first place, get Roosevelt to read top to bottom left to right, no easy task), von Neumann (spesh because of his schizophrenia, no concentration camp for him, he would have been experimented on to then do that same sin to everybody in the camps, Schizophrenic Jews were at the absolute bottom o the Nazi world order).

I just posted about this. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31990431

Fermi was originally a fascist, it basically made sense to him as a way of organizing a country.

Only non-Jew in the top desks of Los Alamos. Why? Only when the racial laws against his Jewish wife and children did he pack his shit and leave for America.

And Fermi was packing heat.
> Nostalgia is the least inclusive interaction with a museum of historical artefacts because you cannot teach anyone nostalgia: they either were there and remember the thing on display, or they do not.

That’s not true. A not uncommon type of museum in Japan are the “Showa Era Museums”.

I was not alive during this era, but I feel nostalgia nonetheless. For context, these museums usually capture the 50s-70s, Japan’s rapid economic growth feeding into consumerism, or maybe the other way around, and there are record players, pachinko machines, and a very distinctive, bright, neon filled aesthetic.
