Germany, Danube river has very low level currently. I cannot remember I saw like that ever. Probably the same observation in Austria/Hungary, can you confirm? This summer is really good, dry, warm, just like somewhere in Greece/Spain. Hopefully will be every summer like this in the future.
I definitely buy that there is a use case for this kernel. Whenever I see this kind of optimization, I feel like it's at least flirting with classical feature engineering. Not that there's necessarily anything wrong with that. You could probably say the same thing about Relu if you wanted. I just think the "it responds better to certain features" argument, which is how I'm understanding this, can quickly throw you back into some classical computer vision work where you're trying to hand optimize instead of relying on gradient descent to find your features
Will CSV be implemented? (e.g. you can import the CSV into SQLite in order to make your own queries on the data) Making the results as CSV should be better than making the results as HTML, in my opinion.

(I had also made up my own format for making forms of a similar purpose, which is purely plain text and no HTML or anything else like that is needed (although it could be converted to HTML, or print out, or whatever other format you might want to use, but the basic format is plain text and can be distributed as it is). I made the specification although the implementation is not yet complete at this time.)

> Stop defending poor coding and lack of skill.

This is a hopelessly elitist attitude. Also it is a useless one, over 1000 CVEs, yelling "be better at your job!" is just going to result in another 1000 CVEs. That is exactly what happened for decades with buggy C code, buffer overflows and use after frees, for a long time the refrain was "just do better!".

Well millions of dollars of damages later, it turns out berating people to "just do better" doesn't actually make things any better. A combination of static analysis and runtime tooling, and then the eventual creation of new programming languages that allow for correct modeling of memory ownership, is what the industry en masse has decided on.

For APIs that get misused? The solution is to provide higher level APIs that allow programmers to easily accomplish the correct thing in a secure manner.

As an aside, and in general, when designing software, I want to maximize the amount of brain power I am dedicating to solving the business problem at hand. Dealing with poorly designed insecure APIs detracts from me getting my actual job done.

> Stop defending practices that leads to them.

The practice in this case is the direct use of filesystem APIs that were designed in the 1970s for a very different security ecosystem than what exists today.

Lots of things designed in the 1970s are not secure by default. Heck most things designed in the 1970s, outside of maybe some IBM Mainframe stuff, was not designed to be secure by default.

What you are arguing is that instead of buying a fire extinguisher to put in the kitchen of an old house, people should just try and not set things on fire.

This isn't true. I live in Albuquerque about 1/4 of a mile from the river and there's literally no water anywhere. The ditches are dry, the reservoirs in the northern part of the state are tapped out, and the Albuquerque Water Authority stopped diverting water from the Rio Grande several months ago.
I'm not sure what this absurd hypothetical has to do with anything. I do not believe anyone is proposing such a requirement.

Personally I am in favor of systems that discourage speculative investment but encourage homeownership. This can be done without indiscriminately punishing people for realizing gains in the market value of their domicile. One such mechanism could be offering incentives or tax breaks that require the buyer to use the home as their primary residence for a certain amount of time.

I think having the opportunity to own the land you personally live on is a right. Owning land on which others reside but not yourself should be considered a privilege, and privileges always come with strings attached.
I think stimming is a bit like listening to music while coding: When you've heard the song a thousand times before it does not take much brain power to listen to it again and it provides an emotional safety by shutting out unwanted external stimuli.

Stimming is doing well known things that doesn't take much attention but also provides emotional safe feeling.

> don't really care about the quality-read Walmart crowd.

I mean, in 2000, Walmart was where you got junk for cheap. In 2022, Walmart is where you know the supply chain is vetted. Everything on their shelves has been cost reduced to an inch of its life, but they also have a good handle on where it came from. It's a little bit easier to stay away from the marketplace garbage on walmart.com than on Amazon, IMHO, but I'd still rather shop somewhere without a marketplace. Unless I'm looking for stuff you can only find in a marketplace, and then you may as well go to ebay or aliexpress.

if Amazon just wants to be the market, that's one thing. but they're also trying to position themselves as a brand name with notion of value attached (e.g. amazon basics).

I value my time and don't want a 'caveat emptor' market experience, so I've largely given up on Amazon as a reliable market browser.
I have a hunch this might be Walmart's finely tuned supply chain figuring out that Onn is what sells best at that location so they overstock that particular store with them.

Last time I was in Walmart (2 days ago) I picked up a SanDisk SD card specifically because I've had good luck with them. All the other brands were there and Onn was just the stuff on the bottom shelves.
OP here - no. "Shipped and sold by Amazon.com" items can be sent to Amazon's fulfillment centers by anyone with a Vendor Central account. There is still plenty of fraud going on there.

In general I would say it is safer than an FBA or FBM offer, but not totally safe.

Vendor accounts are highly sought after by black-hatters because:

1. It's much harder to track down shenanigans you run on them (since as you said the only public seller info is "Amazon")
2. They generally have higher authority for editing listings, so if you want to change a competitor's images it's more likely to stick from a vendor account

A wrapped squat is still a squat. Do heavy knee wraps allow you to squat more? Absolutely. But other than the weight being higher, you squat basically the same with or without wraps. So training in wraps will absolutely help your raw squat -- it isn't like the wraps take away all muscle stimulus from the squat.

That being said, I think most lifters hold off on doing wraps until close to a competition or when hitting near max. Wraps are painful and take a lot of work to put on if doing them tight, so it isn't something you do on every squat. Also, I think people over-estimate how much extra weight one can lift with wraps versus without. It varies from one lifter to the next, but I think the average might be around 10%.

If a marketplace lets itself get so dodgy that this kind of thing's normal, that's absolutely the marketplace's fault.

There's a big, shady flea market in a bad part of my city. Barbed-wire protecting the roof. Heavy bars on all the windows. Armed guards. Half or more of the vendors are plainly fences, or have a close relationship with one or more. Tons of stuff that "fell of the back of the truck". Entire booths carrying counterfeits of luxury goods, sold under the luxury brand name. It's kinda crazy it's allowed to exist.

You don't go there with the same expectations you do when you go to Wal-Mart or Costco.

Amazon tries to look like, and even started out as, a place like Wal-Mart or Costco. Now they're the "how have the cops not shut this place down?" shady flea market. It's 100% their fault that they're like that, and to the degree that they present themselves as anything else, that's deception.
Move to coastal California. There's enough sun & ocean water to fall back to desalination if need be.

Surveillance has made it easier to prosecute and encamp "unwanted" religious minorities such as the Uyghurs. You're making a lot of bold generalizations that don't hold much merit if you look deeper into the actual policies in China right now. China is considered one of the countries of most concern because not enough is being done to meaningfully combat human trafficking. Life getting better for the layperson has nothing to do with China's strong surveillance and media control policy. Chinese people trust their government due to a strong culture of nationalism.

Because they're not comparable. 75% of the measles cases in 2019 (which was the worst measles year since 1992) were associated with the Orthodox communities in NY[1].

This really resonated with me:

> This kind of language is omnipresent in local politics. Where I am, one candidate wants “to restore … decision-making for all residents and businesses, not just the special few.” Another says, “It is essential that the citizens and that the neighborhood leaders have … a meaningful voice at the table.” A third wants to “help you preserve your neighborhood’s character.” One candidate’s campaign website forcefully rails against “behind-the-scenes special interests” opposed to the interests of “citizens.”
I personally think that hard links should go away. I have trouble thinking of any use for hard links that isn’t better served by CoW links. Hard links have quite surprising properties with respect to chmod, they are awkward to handle in archival tools, and even reliably identifying them is awkward to impossible in general.
Very interesting. But I wish they also talked about the position/angle of the eyes and how it affects the perception.
Thanks to having little kids and going to the public library every 3 weeks, I read 4-12 books every 3 weeks. During these 3 weeks I also re-read books I previously read.

Now if you want something I'm reading without the kids around: Witchblade Compendium 2. I read 21 out of 50 chapters. Been reading since early/mid June. Would not recommend so far, but I heard that after chapter 30 (issue 80 of the series) it gets good, we'll see.

The first time they lost no data, the second time they lost a small amount because they weren't monitoring failed drives.

Considering it's data they don't care about enough to back up, that doesn't seem so bad.
I've never seen anything like that. I was able to request a refund, and I did, but it was denied. I then contacted support with no luck there either. Maybe you have consumer protections I don't in your country?

Nevertheless, why on earth would it allow the purchase to happen when it was set to deliver to a specific unsupported kindle, my only one? It just makes no sense other than as a scam.

This is true of most hackathons in my experience, just to a lesser degree since each team is generally free to make whatever solution they see fit. It's all in the pitch–you can pitch an entirely theoretical app you made a couple UI mocks in Figma for or you can develop the app end-to-end. I've seen both methods be successful.

I personal prefer the route of making the app end-to-end, you get a big "wow" factor with judges when you let them drive the laptop and take it for a spin rather than just following the happy path yourself. But I also make sure to set aside time to practice pitching since a bad pitch will effectively ruin our chances.
