I would personally not want to go to a lawyer that is not able to pass the bar exam.

Even if it's just an IQ check, I would want my lawyer to have a high IQ, social Darwinism or not.

I wish law had more certification tests like medicine has with its specialties.

I also think law school should be optional like it is in California or not costing $50,000 a year... that's just gate keeping and puts lawyers in massive financial debt or only selects for the rich.
If you care about dates, don’t look at NPM, the latest version was published six years ago. Some software is just kinda finished and doesn’t need updates.

It still has a huge ecosystem of consumer libs, some updated recently, and 55k downloads a month - about 20x more than “_hyperscript”.

Since _hyperscript is not that big, am I entitled to naming my next project “_hyperscript_” next week? This is not how this is supposed to work.
Yes, if they're bothered enough by it, kick him out of the house. You're a grown-up now, figure it out.
Aptera Suggests US Gov Choose Tesla's Plug and Superchargers as Standard
A short search for this eyeball scanning cryoto scheme of Sam's on HN will answer that question. At least why OP thinks it.
I don't understand the details on how inflation is measured here, but I expected the US Dollar curve to be a constant 1, after the normalization. However, it seems to go down. What does that mean? That the dollar loses value faster than "money is printed"?
Ah so just off by 1 :)

Now I remember, the "canonical" transcendental number is sum of reciprocals of n! Which is almost rational.
imba looks interesting, and promises full js interoperability, but i went through the docs and could not see anything about how that was done (specifically, using existing javascript libraries from imba).

Sorry you are not convinced, but looking and recording are different.

If I hear my neighborhood talking - hearsay

If I record my neighbors talking - admissible evidence
(Fun unrelated fact is that I'm writing a book about this exact question.)

So maybe it is most honest of me not to try and answer that question in this context, and instead say that this is an excellent question to ask of anyone using value implicitely in these sorts of discussions.
When the local police kick in your door it doesn't matter whether BigPerkyTips.com "made a technical mistake" told them you were a dealer or the glowies shoveled parallel constructed crap at them. In neither case will anyone be held accountable. Until we hold the people closest to the bad outcomes accountable for the bad outcomes nothing will change.

I'm rapidly losing faith in Teams and Microsoft, I've been playing with powerapps to have a function that adds a teams comment to Onenote to track actions that come in through chat. So far at least half the time the page generates in Onenote but doesn't sync any content, when it does sync the link back to the chat crashes Teams 100% of the time. Have tried the same link into email and that crashes Teams too.

Nothing maybe. But if a side-channel attack gains access to kernel memory, they can do just about anything, and no login scheme is secure against that.
If you want to feel optimistic, solar pv tech that's been improving over decades should be hitting the same price point around the time they intend to actually produce net energy for the first time. Other pv tech in the pipeline that may or may not work aims to make it cheaper still.

So if this works great, if not it's not the only shot we have.

Also the most important price point is "less than fossil fuels" which renewables have reached already in most of the world. That's when you start displacing large amounts of carbon.

But more new cheap, clean energy sources are always welcome news.
As a lawyer, how do you feel about the need to have graduated from a 3-year law school (in almost all states, with the exception for some that have a longer apprenticeship program) to even take the bar? It seems like if the bar is a sufficient screen it would be unnecessary.
Anyone got a succinct explanation for why ClickHouse is doing so well in this kind of benchmark? What are the key tricks they're using to get great analytical performance, and why haven't those same tricks been adapted by other competing systems?
Just got a Synology 4-bay NAS (their SHR hybrid raid is pretty neat) to keep a full backup of everything I've ever put in cloud storage for this exact reason.

Plus side is plugging in hard drives whisked me back to building computers as a kid.
When you said no-code, for a workflow solution it almost sounds worse. Temporal is pretty good & has an admin interface.
For being descended from (and forcibly superseding) what was once the genericized trademark for video chat (Skype), it's pretty egregious that "not much worse than Slack" is the best Microsoft can do.
Toxic? It aligns exactly with my personal experience today. Coworkers often try to call me using Slack, but I'm always present "Nope in Firefox" dialog.

And if you think the Slack app is anything other than a webpage, then you really need to look into that more. As someone else posted, it is a webpage wrapped in a bundled chromium package.
I don't know if the native app on the Mac is the same as the Windows one, but the latter is absolute crap. It's sooo laggy. Sure, I don't have a 64 core thread ripper or other ridiculous CPU, but even on my 11th gen i7 work laptop, the webapp runs circles around the native app. Even on Firefox on Linux.

However, they must have caught wind of this, because there have been some "improvements" recently, where they reduced the vertical screen space with an empty menu line, and it also feels a bit less snappy than before.
Is it? There is more and more consensus that banning DDT caused more deaths than it prevented. The world is a complex and interconnected place and decisions have direct and indirect consequences. Frankly it's refreshing to see any unintended consequences being surfaced in stories like this.
Clearly they are talking about CPI-U, the common US definition of inflation.

Everyone has their own personal inflation rate, mine in 2021 was 1%. We will see how 2022 turns out, but I'm betting it will go up for me.
Things were different in those days. It was the peak of American car culture. Kids got their driver's license on their 16th birthday, not well into their 20's like today. Driving a cool car was a top priority, and teens all got jobs mostly to finance a car. Heck, I was doing burnouts in the driveway before I had a license :-)

Naturally, they'd race them. All over the place. By informally setting aside a safe boulevard at night for them to express those urges, the idea was things would be more safe, not less, and the cops could keep an eye on it to keep things from getting out of hand. After the cops were forced to shut it down, it went back to being distributed around the city in a much less safe manner.
> Hume showed us you can't get to the normative statement through positive observations.

Hume and I disagree :-)

The original comment was a normative one: I think our current scheme is wrong, in a moral sense. I think it's also wrong in an economic sense, but that's just a cherry on top.
Announcing Rate Limiting for .NET
We all have videophones on our Apple iPhone/iPad/iWatch and macOS laptops and use Signal app with our Android cellphone friends.

My entire extended family use videophone everyday for the past 12 years. (We are a Deaf-related family). Heck, we can even sign to a FCC-certified operator and they'll translate into spoken words to just about ANYBODY (include the dreaded navigation of press-5-for-somewhere-in-the-IT-dept and voicemail hell) and do the reverse in turn ... many times a day.

The good part? During grocery shopping (you detest that, don't you, but you detest the rant-n-raving of the wrong selection more) and unsure of which can of chile con carne, chile w/o beans, chile with beans, chile beans, chile beans with meat or something to get, videophone your spouse and show the shelf racks.

Best for watching baby's first-step, graduation, first bicyling, "Look, Ma! NO HANDS!", and many more.

It's awesome that we can see each other's warm face from up to 9,000 miles away whenever we want.

What's the big deal? Oh, you don't have an Apple product? Sorry.
I am very ignorant of the current ARM cloud offerings. Is it similar prices but less power usage? Or have they had to ramp up the watts to compete?
How is that not fundamentally different?

1) Human stands there and watches your property. A description of what happened on your property is subject to whether or not people believe this human, and the fallibility of human memory. This human cannot be there 24/7, and must -- at minimum -- break to sleep, acquire food, and use the bathroom. In reality, they'll have many other demands on their time that mean they can't (or won't want to) spend much time watching your property.

2) A connected, always-on recording device that captures what's happening in high definition, 24/7 (assuming it has an IR light; if not, ok, more like 12/7). This becomes an indisputable, permanent record that can be replayed as often as anyone wants, and that most reasonable people would believe, without question, as reflecting what is truly going on.

How are these two things not fundamentally different? This is approaching "definition of fundamental" territory.
Life as a service or freedom as a service?
Yeah, you’re correct, you don’t need to invoke relativity to explain the Doppler effect. Sibling comment did a good job explaining the ways relativity does impact redshift, but my initial statement (“because of relativity…”) was not correct.

Make his books available (in a public library) to an impressionable 16 year-old who then set out to become Manfred Macx. One PhD and software engineering career later, I still blame him.
I do know what you mean, but the Elixir ecosystem is fairly exceptional in this regard. (It helps that Elixir is a compiled language with macros; many libraries implement optional-dep support via the compile-time-macro equivalent of the strategy pattern, where you only get the runtime code you ask for, rather than a bunch of useless calls to hooks that have no subscribers in your codebase. And if you're imagining that results in awful codegen code, it doesn't; in many cases, this is just as simple as putting an if statement directly into a module body, with method definitions inside the if branches.)

It's also helped by an eye toward low coupling of these support libraries. Elixir's Phoenix web framework, for example, is "batteries included" in some senses; but all those batteries are only included because your own generated skeleton code pulls them in; not because the framework itself depends on them in any way. So if you don't need e.g. i18n, or views, or really anything beyond an API that responds with JSON; then you can delete ~five lines from your skeleton project, drop the relevant deps, and the resulting project will be a lightweight web framework that just serves API calls. (This is why there isn't really a "lightweight" Elixir web framework ala Flask/Sinatra/etc.; Phoenix is both Elixir's batteries-included web framework, and its lightweight/minimal web framework, depending on how you use it.)
Precisely. In fact, that features in many proofs of transcendence: you find too good rational approximations, which contradicts things like Roth's theorem, so your number cannot be algebraic.
Had the OP not stated that "Zig is probably the most common tool to compile C/C++ to WebAssembly outside the browser,...", I wouldn't have said anything.

You say it yourself, this is about the C and C++ toolchain offered by clang, ergo not Zig.

I only reply on hype regarding Zig, like the previous remark, or it being "safe", when it is as safe as Modula-2 already was in 1978.

Which while miles beyond C, it wasn't without flaws.

As for what adds to the conversation, I guess taming a bit the hype, regardless of the language.

If you are so attentive, you will have remarked that I spare no language, all get their share.

Finally, if you don't like my comments, page down is your friend.
Over 30 years, you did OK. But there were 10 year down periods.
That ship has sailed. This behavior did not start at 18. If parents are still confidently in a position they feel they can "parent" (doubtful), then one option is to create alternatives rather than mere restrictions, i.e. sign them up for extra-curriculars. Otherwise, unless this legal adult wants to change, they won't.
> SEARCH is used by the WebDAV standard

That’s probably part of the reason the more general one proposed for HTTP is “QUERY” and not “SEARCH”. Also, WebDAV, in following its apparent design philosophy of “more is more”, has multiple different GET-with-(required or optional)-body methods with different purposes: PROPFIND and REPORT as well as SEARCH.
Ain't no way I could brush the dust off, it's all glued on by oil. I guess I'm a fat fucker and produce way more oil than normal, though...
Sometimes it is also due to the university changing their systems too often. When I was at uni, we had to switch from self-hosted + roundcube webmail to full Google suite to full Microsoft 365 : for mail and tooling in less then 9y. With transition period where everything was half-broken.
I get this is about an over-the-wire standard for video calls, but it seems silly to me. I'm a younger millennial, and looking at my recent calls, I have about a 10:1 ratio factime:telephone. If I can use facetime I will, every time, and I don't actually know anyone who doesn't prefer it. Facial expressions, situational context of the person on the other end, and being able to seemlessly show something are all so valuable
I'd urge you to reexamine now. When your kids are grown up and out of the house and you're a little older you might think "it would have been so easy to go back and get my degree then and look where I could have been now." Remember that although rare, there are people getting PhDs in their 60s and 70s.
I feel as if the author has taken the wrong lesson from being kicked out of a party.

> One night I was kicked out of a party, literally. As in: pushed out the front door by feet and legs. I stumbled home feeling dirty; animalistic.
>
> I feel sneered and kicked at in much the same way when trying to share content on Reddit

People generally don’t get kicked out of parties for no valid reason. They get kicked out because they were acting inappropriately. Yes, it hurts. But it generally is a situation created by the person. Taking a victim mentality removes the ownership of the situation. The author should have reflected on it and tried to better their life.
New YC video series: First Five
Self hosted on a cloud provider (not AWS).

Interestingly when I logged into Microsoft's Smart Network Data Services I could also see my VPS provider had claimed the IP block as well so they were clearly invested in making sure spam was under control. But nope, still not enough for Microsoft. At one point the mail was even getting hard 550 refused. I contacted their support who to their credit replied, but to less of their credit gaslit me and claimed there was no blocking occurring despite me pasting them full error message with all their tracking IDs in it. The next day mail was allowed in again but still ends up in spam.

Just buy a Ryzen laptop. Intel's 12th Gen has had a number of issues - hardware acceleration in browsers not working, problems with thread scheduling under any OS except from Windows 11, excessive power consumption and overheating in benchmarks. On top of that Intel has done a lot of illegal stuff to protect their market positions.
Agreed. Don't understand why they don't do it. Would love to have my employer spend money on Discord, indirectly financing free voice chat for my evening gaming sessions...
Cool! Anyways, most people don't do this because they don't read articles frequently enough, or they read from too many sources.
Except the people who have to pay for an engine swap.
Unless that ref holds a mutable reference. C++ doesnt make it easy at all to have something be truly immutable.
I don't think we're arguing with you anymore about whether or not you could be bothered, just that you somehow seem to think that there's no (or only a minor or incremental) difference between a human watching your property and a camera recording it, which is objectively false.

And of course no one can resist trying to correct someone who is Wrong On The Internet.

Also I think it's because it sounds like you're refusing to sympathize with people who might be uncomfortable with this sort of thing. Are you the kind of person who would reflect on this issue and say, "this doesn't bother me, but I can see why it might bother someone else, so I wouldn't point a camera at my neighbor's house"? Or are you the kind of person who would say "this doesn't bother me personally, so I'll just do whatever I want and ignore how other people feel about this"? You are definitely giving off the latter vibe here, which is anti-social and selfish (not the kind of neighbor I'd want to live next to, regardless of this particular issue). Hopefully that's not who you are, though, and we've all just gotten caught up in the argument and are appearing one-dimensional.
I think it's totally uncalled for to call me a creep. I'm saying other people can point their cameras at my yard. When I point my camera I seriously consider that others don't share my values. And if they came over and asked nicely, I'd move the camera (it currently points at a neighbor's driveway). At least I'm open and honest about it.
Supply chain issues are killing synth companies
This made me wonder just how much he's actually putting in vs. what he has / is investing in general. Reports say that he personally invested $375MM into Helion[0] and various sources say his total net worth is...$200-$200MM[1][2].

But yc definitely also has solar startups, and Sam Altman appears to believe in those as well[3], as one would expect.

Conclusion: It's unclear how "all-in" he is (but it's a pretty big bet), and online "net worth" estimators are even more terrible than I'd assumed.

Even if we knew nothing about how the brain works (since we know very little in the grand scheme of things), this idea breaks down immediately from an evolutionary perspective. Given its energy requirements and the fact that brain development is essentially delayed in humans so that the baby may exit the birth canal, it would make on sense for any portion of the brain to be unused.
Seems unlikely to me that they will read that over a high level summary.
I think this is unnecessarily harsh. Most of the people who implement cryptographic systems are professional engineers, and are not otherwise incorrect in evaluating their skillsets or capabilities. The problem isn't cargo culting, but the fact that cryptography is much more subtle and un-engineering-like that the rest of our discipline.
It's also about the right power output. Largest diesel engines on ships put out about 40MW of power.

Discord doesn't, it's Electron too. That's not the root of the problem. Discord is pretty fast, I haven't really noticed it "chugging" and lagging like MSTeams does.
I was able to get it setup and deploying to my k8s cluster quickly. Can't wait to try it with one of my own services.
I think parent comment mean "a longer automated check than the one that flagged the content". I think he meant no human would make the call, but another routine.

Keep your current jobs and work on your idea on the side until it hits an MVP stage and you can show it to people from your target audience. Only then depending pn the feedback decide if it to take on it full-time or to drop it. Chances are that it won't make the cut.
Thanks for sharing some insight!

I definitely have a similar experience with initial repetition for new albums and burning them into my memory. I used to manage all my FLAC files in a similar manner, but the benefits stopped outweighing the costs as my library grew larger.

I think the generational aspect of age and preference for singles vs. full albums probably has some correlation, but I mostly grew up in the age when mp3 players picked up (I'm 27) and I'm definitely part of the latter.

For a more intentional listening experience, I prefer enjoying a full album from front to back too. Many artists I listen to have songs that directly feed into each other or motifs that recur throughout so a front-to-back listening experience is the best way to fully appreciate the composition.

Sometimes though, I just want to jam to a specific song to fit the vibe :)
This information has been blacklisted from many communities as it was deemed an attack on Williams. That's why it wasn't publicized.

For example I got banned from r/rust for pointing it out (once, respectfully) in the "congrats new team member" post for Williams. That post was eventually deleted from the whole sub because community reaction was overall negative. r/rust mods deemed it inappropriate for any negative sentiment about Williams to be allowed to remain up, even with this info already redacted.

Oh, and because this was deemed a CoC violation, I'm technically banned from all official rust fora and events, all because I think genocide is bad. Good thing I use pseudonyms online. I would discourage anyone from participating under your real name because you never know when information you have will be deemed un-facts.

Assuming normal distribution:

Single tail 4s.d. is like 1 in 30k. There are about 300M people in the US. Doing the division, that's 10k people.

Google employs way more software engineers than that.

Google does hire at the tail (just not as extreme as you claim). And when you select for the tail, slight difference in average translates to a huge gender imbalance.

Take height for example, we have quite some overlap between men and women. But when we select for people over 6', it's gonna be overwhelmingly men.
MHD have pretty low efficiency (otherwise the world wouldn't have bothered with turbines, pistons/crankshafts, etc.). They claim 95% recovery. That is amazing. That would in particular seem to imply that the radiative/thermal losses less than 5%, which is very strange (classic thermal radiative power is 4th power of temperature and add bremsstrahlung to that). You'd usually need high density (or size sometimes can do for it) for the radiation/thermal to not escape much. They seem to have demonstrated efficient recovery at conditions far from the real fusion where such radiative losses would be expected to grow disproportionally.
Or if you live in a two-party consent state that you don't consent. That should be enough. Someone that doesn't respect your consent doesn't respect you.
They can't be universally true can it? I know Hades is built on a basically in-house engine, and I think it released on all platforms simultaneously... then again that studio might not even qualify as "indie" especially now... are custom engines like that really that rare nowadays?
