Beyond the theory, if you are having trouble getting your hands dirty, here is the path I had taken for data engineering:

(It is pretty hands on.)

After you are done with the initial learning, find an academic machine learning discord or something similar. There will always be people there who will be very happy to find someone to clean their data. It's a great way of getting hands on with data engineering.

System design is best learnt through fires.

A good angle of attack is: pick a certification like AWS SAA or equivalent(AWS, azure, Google cloud. Doesn't really matter. Just pick a mid level certification).
Then do the labs. They will quickly point out the holes in your knowledge/understanding. The free tier will take care of your needs, and cloud providers most of the time forgive the first surprise bill(it happens to everyone).

Soon data engineering and systems design merge anyways. This path is like a cheat-code for forcing convergence. Otherwise, the mind will quickly forget most theory.

---

Adding to this:

When you get hands on, you will find how the mind lies to you about how much you know.
Mind maps are a nice way to reliably detect holes in understanding. Sit down with paper & pen once a week or so, and make a big map of everything you know.
IIRC they're civil suits as well which have a much lower burden of proof required for judgement.
Yes, at least one new recruiter per week. They send the initial email, then usually two follow-ups. A few weeks ago the follow-up even had a "FINAL CHANCE" in the opportunity line or something worded like that suggesting I wouldn't get more offers from them. Turns out that was a lie.

That's what I wonder too... working on this without any return other than lots of github stars is a bit discouraging.
To be fair though, unless you use only backend frameworks plus CSS and JS for simple client only things, this will be the case.

Any sort of reaching out to the server from JS will be disabled.

That's not what happened. Bitcoiners defended decentralization over throughput. The argument back then was that we should first experiment with scaling with other solutions and try to innovate as far as possible, and after that see how much actual L1 block space is needed. Now we are starting to see that it was the right choice.

That's because it really isn't an academic paper. He clearly stated that he was publishing it as a manifesto of what he would be researching going forward.

Would it be different if he just published it on a Medium or Substack blog?

I'm not an academic so I don't understand these weird feuds but seems pretty ridiculous to call someone out for lack of citations when they clearly disclosed the nature of that writing as somewhat unofficial and opinion-based.

I think this depends on your children's age. If your kids are reasonable 15+, then sure. You shouldn't be spying on them. If your kids are 12? Then you probably should be.

This is less about spying or snooping and more about knowing children aren't mature enough to have private conversations with strangers.

If anything, politicians should be the first people you are protected to critisize. Politicians work for you — the voting citizen — and if they are doing a poor job you have the right to let them know.

It is frankly insane to watch the frog boil in places where you can have your house raided for insulting someone online. There is a wave of government authoritarianism in many places around the globe, and many citizens are happy with these growing nanny states.

It's genuinely distressing to me how the author has shoehorned in a suppsosed link between fictional fantasies published between adults on Twitter and actual child sex abuse and grooming. The fact the author chose to include these, as well as the dictionary rendition of 'loli complex' without delving any deeper into the reasons this subculture exists between adults shows a shocking lack of due diligence.

The fact that somebody likes gay furry porn and posts nude pictures of themselves in adult spaces has nothing to do with child sex abuse.

On the other hand, it isn't all that surprising; crusaders against porn and deviance frequently tie in far larger and more serious issues, but this author has done the opposite: take very serious issues of CSA and in order to inflame the reader's sensibilities feels he must mention that 'deviant' content.
What "scientific" analysis has claimed "chernobyl can't happen again" ? It would be as ridiculous as someone claiming the new Airbus XXX model can't crash. Even analysis of the type "a chernobyl will happen once every XX years" are more political in nature than scientific, since you are assuming a stable society for decades to come (i.e. no degradation in the skill level of constructors or operators, etc. -- even foreign ones). Which, barring sudden miraculous discoveries in the area of Psychohistory, is basically entirely politics and outside the realm of science.

So hot take, I firmly believe NFT's at this is point an utter scam.

Digital property unlike physical property can be trivially & exactly replicated. That principle is what the entire web is based on. Downloading webpages, images, streaming media, et al are all based on creating an exact copy of the source material on the local machine. The only part that is different is the shared record, which _does not_ prove ownership. It proves that you have the private key for a token, but there is no ownership inferred beyond that of the token.

I do think there was potential for NFT's, particularly banal single use uses¹. But at this point it has become such a parity of itself I can't imagine any use getting any traction².

1: the best example I can think of this is postage for email. Create a token of the hash of an email sender/email receiptant/email subject & body & a timestamp of when the message was /will be sent. Then include the location of this in the email headers.
2: There is also the massive environmental impact. I don't think it is morally sound to support any type of NFT based system at this point.
Oh, I very much hope you're proven right. I mean, almost no one wants higher interest rates -- except the Fed, whose priority is curtailing inflation. I'm not sure anyone can predict rates accurately. Consider that just over a year ago, almost everyone was talking about rates going negative, and look at what actually happened!

>yet not even mention that the word 'privacy' does not appear in the constitution

As if the constitution is some God-given artifact, that should dictate all legal matters in perpetuity, and anything not thought by some long dead guys in 18th century is not relevant to a modern society?
It absolutely is worthy of note.

I have nothing wrong with people selling porn, but it's not remotely kid appropriate. Society expects a large berth between the two. If a kids company hired a porn-star to sell their products that would be weird, even if they didn't mention porn while on the clock. Similarly it would be weird if Roblox was also a joint venture with PornHub. This wouldn't hold if they were just Orthodox Jews.

> We’re building value, not just taking it away from someone else.

Does Facebook still build anything? These days it seems like they mostly buy other companies that are still able to build and innovate.
I sort of mostly agree. Long term deep storage is nice because with a good design, we can pretty much set and forget. Most LLFPs aren't actually very dangerous as they don't emit gamma rays, but Tc-99 and I-129 are pretty nasty stuff. we could probably reprocess those into Ru and throw the rest of it into a deep geologically stable hole. Any society in 10k years that could find the stuff will be advanced enough to avoid or rebury it. As long as we don't store anything highly bioavailable near water, it should be fine. By 10k years from now the amount of radiation actually being released will be miniscule. But, I'm all for a big deep hole.
I think they meant that svelte cannot be used without a build step.

The fact that builds dont need a second build is nice to know, even if useless.

"I feel like Hearthstone is a good example of the maximum amount of communication two strangers can have on the Internet."

Hello stranger on the internet .. don't you think, you used a bit more than
"Thanks, Well Played, Greeting, Wow, Oops, Threaten" here?

I still understood you, though. Which is my point, I had awesome communications with many strangers on the internet. Whether in games or forums.

But yes, the average online communication is quite low and toxic. And I had to learn to walk away or ignore most of it. So for small kids it is maybe a good thing, if their games do not have chat enabled. Which means pretadors then can only contact them through whatsapp, instagram, facebook, tiktok,...

There is way worse than facebook: linkedin, microsoft should not be allowed to own such database as it gives them a clearcut unfair advantage as being "all-knowing" about the professional networks of ppl (or at least good chunks of them).
Point taken; I admit I wrote that as a sort of frustration and reaction to the abundance of comments telling a newb at front-end developer to just take the deep dive and start installing a bunch of NPM packages / CLI tools. In my opinion, those tools hide amazing layers of complexity that become a problem as soon as you need to eject. I think any beginner at front-end development should realistically start by getting used to the bread 'n butter of HTML/CSS/Vanilla JS, things the browser already understands. Only once you start feeling the limitation of those tools should you start including libraries, and then maybe a package manager and view layer.
That stems from the fact that any definition of an insult will be either incomplete or incorrect.
Anti-nuclear sentiment (both environmentalist and anti-nuclear weapons) was generously sponsored by the Soviet Union. What a surprise than nowadays the same groups are serving the interests of Russia.

The most cynical thing is that the biggest nuclear accident in history was caused by Soviet negligence and incompetence and yet they managed to exploit it politically.

You're not wrong about control of Gtk. But my point was that if GNOME does drop such X11 functionality while the GNOME DE may not suffer, the far more important and larger set of applications that use Gtk will. GNOME DE won't have problems but the Linux ecosystem will.

Doom emacs is excellent at getting you past that nonsense. Built around straight.el so semver, Sha, tag, branch pinning is fully covered.

> Q: How did Tilt5 take the "smart" path and Magic Leap the "way of pain?"

Im a huge fan of Jeri Ellsworth, but even Tilt5 didnt have a "smart" path despite using a cheaper approach to doing AR by orienting more for a projection screen approach and focusing on games - they started out as a kickstarter for CastAR (as the Technical Illusions company), went through the VC path with Playground Global, had issues with that path and went out of business, then Jeri (and possibly partners) bought the distressed assets of CastAR at auction to relaunch as Tilt5. It's been a nearly nine year or more journey IIRC.

Ask HN: A scammer just tricked me out of my Selfie ID
I listed one of my car for sale on craigslist and had someone contact me outside my city. The conversation started off very natural with the "buyer" asking very relevant used car questions. Then he said he is out of town and is willing to send me a deposit to hold the car. He said: "Before I send you a deposit, please send me a selfie of you, with your drivers license with a piece of paper with todays date July 5 2022. also include a copy of the vehicle registration & insurance."

I got caught off-guard as I sold my last car also to someone remotely sight unseen. So I sent him what he asked. The next morning I woke up and had a sudden realization that I probably got scammed. I went back to the email and realized the phone number and personal email he provided were both fake. He used a generic common Chinese name of "Charles Lau".

I googled selfie ID and it looks like a lot of crypto site (including Coinbase) is using selfie + id + hand written text for biometric verification. Some banks since covid also implemented selfie ID verification.

I filed a local police report and contacted my driver licensing and insurance, which they said theres not much they can do.

My question to HN is what are some of the risks to me as this scammer now has my Selfie + ID + vehicle registration + address. Knowing that crypto sites uses this for verification, can the scammer create a bunch of crypto exchange accounts under my name and start laundering dirty crypto money? or take out a crypto/regular loan under my name? What can I do to protect my self going forward?
For politicians and administrations, I'm pretty sure any ideological stance is simply a facade to allow them to climb the ladders. The real propellent, throughout history, for politicians and administrations, are always more $$ and more power so I don't think Germany is an outlier.
You also need to consider that H2O itself is also a greenhouse gas, much worse than CO2, although much easier to remove from atmosphere.
Are you Nadine Dorries in disguise? That toxic wart is precisely _becuase_ of Boris. We crashed out with no deal - how is that a good negotiation? And then the subsequent agreement he did manage to get he's now unilaterally pulling out of, breaking international law in the process.

Yes, vacinnation went very well. But the dithering on lock-downs, constant u-turns on any decision of note, and populism over science led to the death of literally thousands.

If you doubt we could have a better leader than someone repeatedly sacked throughout their carreer for lying, and then being ousted for breaking the law, lying to the Queen, lying in parliament, and getting his ministers to lie on his behalf, then lying again, then we're in even deeper shit than I thought.
There is a giant leaderboard called “citation count”. You get a real time “score” that can define your career prospects.

So, like any system with a “score”, people become warped, they focus on the score above all else. So this person thinks they aren’t getting their magical citation “points” and are mad.

Nobody owns ideas and very few ideas are original, or much more important, timely.

I have this at work all the time. We have a process where we try to guide the user to doing the right thing using a couple of dialogs.

Support gets questions all the time from users which just clicked arbitrarily on the dialogs without reading (we can tell by their questions), leading them into a state they don't want.

At this point I'm seriously considering to replace the dialogs with an interactive text adventure-style thing.
No worries, I've seen another project called UAdmin that kind of reminds me of this, my problem with UAdmin was that there were bugs and I didn't quite get why it worked how it worked, but having used Django since I realized what I was missing out on.

I would greatly disagree that it is up to the voters. It is only up to the representatives. Only states with binding resolution allows for voters to enact policies while major of states only allow representatives. There are numerous stances where the people fully support a policy while the major of representatives reject the policy and adhere to their political party and group think. If the voters had the power then we should be able to override legislation that the the current representatives supporting. I hear it all the time with representatives, we need the power to override the Governor, but never hear the people need the power to override the representatives and or Governor. Voting in new representatives has no correlation to enacting polices we the people want and demand.
