PyPI doesn't currently prevent deletions at all, so a maintainer can just flat out delete their stuff if they want. Though we are discussing if we want to tighten that up at all.

I would say that in the > 10 years of time I've been an admin on PyPI and even longer that I've been involved in Python's Packaging, I've never once seen anyone, but individuals placed front and center in who we're attempting to serve first and foremost.

Businesses and other large orgs do come up from time to time, and we've generally been pretty good at making decisions that allowed those businesses to solve their problems on their own, without requiring the rest of the ecosystem to do it for them. In other words, our features we add for businesses tend to be unblocking them from being able to implement something they want, rather than taking on the responsibility of whatever thing they want.
Nanoparticles are what the mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccine are packaged in.

They're lipid particles that are chemically very similar to your cell walls so they just fuse with the wall and then release their payload inside the cell.

That doesn't have anything to do with the target though. The stalk of the virus is difficult to target and not really possible with the existing way that influenza vaccines are manufactured with an inactivated virus process. So you wind up with the whole proteins and no good way to target segments. By using mRNA technology you can specify which protein you want to target or which segment of protein you want to target. It can also be useful to make edits to the protein sequence like the prefusion stabilization in the mRNA vaccines.

When you get the inactivated influenza vaccine you're still getting HA stalks attached to the HA protein and for whatever reason the immune system doesn't target the stalk sections well. So the idea is that you hit the immune system with a payload of only HA stalks and then hopefully the immune system pumps out antibodies specific for that which will then be resistant to genetic drift.
perhaps, but it appears (given the Regulators behavior) that the burden would be on me to prove that I didn't "profit" (or intend to profit), and they could also come after you the passenger for violating the taxi-monopoly-laws.

> wtfhappenedin1971.com — how many economic indicators went off track in 1971, around the time the US got off the gold standard.

Oh god, how can anyone seriously recommend this site. It lists lots of economic indicators, prominently indicating 1971, insinuating that everything was caused by the Nixon Shock... when it's clear from several of the graphs that the inflection point was closer to 1980.

There's just so much bad pop history and other stuff here, but that site really has the chutzpah crown for telling you a "truth" while simultaneously presenting facts that nakedly debunk it.
I recently had a child. Watching her learn inspires a sense of amazement. It starts slow with basic grasping, then shaking, then hitting, then tracking, then pointing. You really see how human's learn from first principles. One difference I perceive between a child an a neural network is that it appears a child does not start from a blank slate. The brain of a baby seems to come hard-wired with some basic instinctual functionality like grabbing and object tracking.
Reminds me of Arianespace's launch streams compared to pretty much everyone else's. All of new space tries to make their streams interesting and modern without shifting the focus from the thing that matters (the rocket), while Arianespace shows a bunch of people talking with a tiny view of the rocket people actually care about seeing. Lately even ULA has pretty cool footage to show afterwards.

Feels like this is just the usual case of the 'old guard' being completely out of touch.
It’s become formulaic, and Marvel seems very self-aware of this… which is why they seem to be doing their damn best to serve something different each time. It seems almost desperate? But the underlying tones remain the same.

I’m getting bored, and this is coming from a former avid comic book fan (as a kid) who went f’ing ape shit went it became “real” via movies. First time I saw Iron Man I completely geeked out.

And that’s the problem. 15 years later, I’m bored. Other movies outside of the marvel universe continue to excite me. This very much feels like a stale relationship… it’s me, not Marvel? But then I saw this post and realized others may feel the same way.

I couldn’t even begin to suggest what they should try next.

There are many ways one can argue for or against this comparison. This is mostly a matter of terminology. However the problem is that the field of AI has been for many decades consistently shaping its language to evoke human-like connotations in order to boost hype. This article's title is a yet another example of that.

Current flu vaccines are often not super protective because they have to make an informed guess as to which flu strain will be circulating months in advance, and sometimes the guess is off.

A vaccine that can target more strains at once may be more reliable than what we've got, which is why they're researching them.

Hindus imagined this thousand of years ago.

Uncountable universes(multiverse) are born when Supreme consciousness Vishnu breathes out. Inside each universe God Bharma is born with the responsibly of managing the affair. Brahma lives for his 100 years which is roughly 311 billion years. During this time many mini cycles of creation and dissolution takes place. When Bharma finally dies after completing his 100 years,that particular universe dies with him. After another 311 billion years another Brahma is born again and universe restarts. When supreme god Vishnu finally breathes in, multiverse stop existing and creation end till the time supreme god breathes out again.

This doesn't pass the smell test. If you teach a class of 250 students, you aren't even aware of the bottom percentile until the first exam is graded. That's many weeks after you've already taught many lectures. So how would your uncle even figure out how to tailor those initial lectures to that bottom percentile?

Where this matters is in something like a lab or music practicum where the communication between instructor and students is the class. But I can tell you from experience that the variance among different years of students in a single university is large enough to disprove your uncle's point. I had one class that could have been confused for graduate students. Yet another might as well been sent by the Trump administration with the goal of destroying the institution of ear training.
Sorry, I thought it was a good idea to allow players to record their gameplay in-game however it caused a performance hit that I just noticed now.

This is preposterous. Did you ever go on the Silk Road? It was very clearly a large marketplace of nearly only illegal items (drugs, guns, etc).

Your belief in the law doesn’t change its status. What he did was very illegal, with all use cases to support illegal activity. This wasn’t about possession for an individual, it was a mechanism for large scale distribution of illegal products.

It’s apples and oranges to compare the two.
No, it really is a matter of settled law in America that if acquitted of a charge that you are innocent as you start with the presumption of innocence.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presumption_of_innocence is a useful resource for understanding why a person is innocent unless and until they have been proven guilty.

It is surprising that this is even a matter of debate. This is a basic fact taught as part of U.S. compulsory education.

I shouldn’t be surprised, but desktop environments using >1G of ram as standard strikes me as insane.

I get that they’re doing a lot but my first custom built PC had 1G of memory for the entire system (and that was absurdly large by those days standards; somewhere around 2005).

I don’t see terribly large improvements in functionality between 2005’s gnome2 and what exists now in mate or XFCE, bearing in mind that I was playing with beryl/compiz at the time too.

Does anyone know what’s contributing?
As a non-native English speaker I will not argue about proper use of arbitrary. I will reiterate though that there is no universal criteria for what critical means and plausibly theirs (in sense that I am speculating) is not an unreasonable one: packages when compromised would affect the most and enough developers directly as they are the primary users of the packages and everyone else is downstream.

Downloads admittedly are not a perfect measure as it is not a fixed ratio between number of developers and downloads, but it is again a reasonable one as it is highly unlikely that with expected power law distribution of popularity the top 1% would not be also widely used.

The remaining quibble could be the cut off at 1% which I assume was derived from data and not an infatuation with 1.

I doubt mandating 2FA for all would save any debate at all as it seems mainly to be centered on "why are they doing this to me" and not "why am I being singled out", but personally I certainly wouldn't have a problem if they did. I certainly would prefer to know which packages are better protected than others.

There's also a reason why one wouldn't mandate it which is to make first steps in publishing easier for beginners with expected audience of only them.

I also share James' perspective that our obligations change with other people relying on us. However even if you don't, you are not forced to accept it. You only won't be able to publish new versions of the package, but you can always rename it and publish that if 2FA is really such a burden.
As a small point of order here (not saying you're wrong, just to elaborate a bit):

* Rust doesn't have strict aliasing/tbaa

* Rust does have "restrict" semantics (in C via the keyword and in C++ via common vendor extensions)

And yeah, Rust is considering a provenance model that's different than PNVI-ae.

I run two platforms/websites (SaaSHub & LibHunt) that both have 1M+ visits per month.

Both products run everything on a single $60 VPS (Linode dedicated CPU 8GB). That includes Ruby on Rails, background queues, Redis (cache and queues) and of course, Postgres. On both machines Postgres takes about 1.3G RAM and not too much of the CPU. CPU utilization is 37% avg and 13% avg.

So, yeah, I don't think you need managed and "scalable" Postgres provisioning in most of the cases.
Same experience here. I wouldn’t trade small class sizes for anything.

Perhaps you missed the "which allows content to be shared and/or people to communicate with each other" phrase? That seems to be the author's phrasing of the bill's wording "content that is generated by a user of the service... may be encountered by another user."

A site or app that doesn't allow user content isn't in scope. But just add a comment section and suddenly you have this world of regulatory requirements with mandates to age-verify all users, which bars anonymity.

In practice this will end discussion and comment sections from all but the largest sites that can afford all the regulatory compliance.

A lot of HN commenters here trying to "fix" the details of the rankings.

Velocity [1].

Ignoring it is like sticking a water wheel in the ocean and asking why it doesn’t turn given the depth. Quantity doesn’t turn it. Flow does. And that depends on more than how much water is present.

Get ready for this answer because it is wild: There universe grew way, way faster than the speed of light.

> At this point of the very early universe, the metric that defines distance within space suddenly and very rapidly changed in scale, leaving the early universe at least 10^78 times its previous volume (and possibly much more). This is equivalent to a linear increase of at least 10^26 times in every spatial dimension—equivalent to an object 1 nanometre (10−9 m, about half the width of a molecule of DNA) in length, expanding to one approximately 10.6 light-years (100 trillion kilometres) long in a tiny fraction of a second. This change is known as inflation.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronology_of_the_universe

Objects within space can't move faster than light. But space itself can stretch fast enough that they objects within the universe are having the distance between them grow faster than the speed of light.
The universe can expand faster than the speed of light because of the expansion of space. The rule "nothing can go faster than light" is more situational than it's usually presented; I believe the true rule only means that objects that meet each other can't have a speed difference more than lightspeed, but for objects that are far apart, it's possible for them to see the distance between each other grow as if they were moving apart faster than light because of the expansion of space between them.
Thank you! I was going to ask before I saw this.

It is no such thing. An assault rifle is a select-fire rifle with an intermediate cartridge and detachable magazine. AR-15s are not this, since they aren't select-fire.

> My monthly premiums for a Platinum PPO plan through my employer (in Silicon Valley) is slightly over $2K/month (for a family of 3). Same plan at my previous employer, same price (a bit cheaper but that's because it goes up every year). This is also very similar to what an ACA plan would cost. Your guess of $500/mo is way off.

My calculations are for the portion the employee pays directly, meaning the ~25% to ~30% the employer does not pay.

Since all employers of this caliber part the 75% portion as a benefit without option to receive it as cash compensation, it is not appropriate to consider the employer subsidized portion in the amount the employees pay.

> That's because if you get a bill for, say, $10K, the insurance company can decide they will only pay $8K so you're stuck with $2K. But not all of that $2K is counted against the out-of-pocket max. The insurance company will say only some smaller amount, say $500, will count as credit towards the out of pocket. So I get to write a check for $2K but in the eyes of the insurance company I've only paid $500 this year. Repeat a handful of times and I can easily go over the so-called max out of pocket in real money.

If you have an ACA compliant plan, which the platinum designation indicates it is, this should not be happening for in network services that have prior authorizations. Either the insurance company thinks you are being given superfluous treatment not supported by evidence, or the insurance company is ripping you off in which case you need to file an appeal.

What about a list of independent|objective tests(for the 100 different majors out there) to rank students from any schools when you graduate that acts like SAT|ACT for jobs? do make it optional though, if employer finds that valuable, more college graduates will take it, it will work better than leetcode I hope.
DokuWiki. If it's just about quickly sharing one page with some pictures, videos, structured text and a descriptive URL, which I also can easily set permissions for outside people, logged-in users, specific groups,... a wiki for me does the job preeeeeeetty well so far. Plus, all my info is already there. Not comparable to all the other solutions mentioned here though, neither feature-wise nor philosophically.

Oh, and DokuWiki uses .txt files for its pages, which can directly be edited from the file system.

I recently got back into the C&C franchise and realized how much I'd missed that part of my childhood. It was pretty cool to realize there's still an active community around these games -- check out Sybert on YT, he's doing a brilliant job casting matches across all of the still actively played C&Cs.

Admittedly I've never been good at RTS games in general, and maybe never will be, but it's still fun to take a break from 'single focus' games like FPSs once in a while and switch to the (literal) bird's-eye view.

For Influenza A, this would be amazing. Currently the vaccine composition is 3 (H1,H3, Bvic) or 4 valent. This could reduce the total composition down to 2 (flu A + flu B).

But influenza A has 20+ dub types for the HA alone.
