Not a huge fan of resources like this. I think they can be good motivators and may contain some good lessons or tools you can adapt to your own journey, but they stink selection bias, too many are shams by people whose only "success" is telling people how to be successful (see Tony Robbinson), and don't account for the large amount of variance that can be found in paths to success (there are many ways to get there but these can make it seem like there are only a few.

Also the whole mantra of "finding" success like others have mentioned isn't super accurate in my book either. I'd label it more as "making" since the only way of getting there is through work.
If I get to keep the qualia yes absolutely.
Indeed the pictures are not representative of the real setup. Anyway the idea is clever. The paper provides an overview about most of the missing bits, such as the mcu, power source, and software.
Nope - HN is one of the worst 'smart' places on the internet for Covid discussion. Every single thread immediately devolves into completely ascientific conspiracy ranting.
That's fine, as long as we're clear that is said in a position of privilege.
>>y'all can't argue not wearing a mask should be punished unless u want to argue not wearing a condom also should be.

That some ridiculously dishonest take on the whole issue. Especially monkeypox isn't really prevented by condoms the same way HIV or chlamydia is.

>> i'm only after promiscuous ppl here because they're causing antibiotic resistance in some pretty disgusting conditions and spreading new shit like monkeypox

You just sound like the people from Reagan era(tbh there are people like this nowadays too) who kept on saying that if it only wasn't for those filthy promiscuous gay people having their disgusting gay sex, AIDS wouldn't be a problem! Think about all the money this is going to cost the public taxpayer! In fact there were people suggesting not treating any HIV positive people, to discourage people from being promiscous!

Just....keep your insane moral judgements out of my healthcare please.

> `color:hover & something`

Though then again, I still don't see why the parser can understand that `color:hover something` is a selector, but can't understand that `color:hover & something` is a selector with nesting. I don't need to mark a shitty selector like `color:hover` with special markers for shitty selectors, do I?

I think server/app deployments would need to be just a little more happy-clicky and lower friction and less risk before more non techies would venture into that space. All the "best practices" a sysadmin performs would have to be baked into it or at least be checkboxes that enable them at a cost with simple explanations of each functions cost/benefit in video format. Some VPS providers are slowly going in this direction but have quite a ways to go in my opinion. They have lowered the bar for new techies at least.
Yes, we have a term for that: Technical debts!

The reality is like this: You have a critical system that ran for ages, and now what will you do to scale the features ? By allowing/teaching junior devs to understand how to contribute to the codebase ?

There's a simpler way to do that efficiently: Extract a subdomain into its own microservice and you control the interface. Then even that microservice has bad code quality (tech debt), your business is still running fine!

Problem solved.

Another (competing) conception of “consciousness after death” is that (perhaps depending on the manner of death) consciousness continues but degrades further and further into an obscene, wretched stupidity. See https://thelocalyarn.com/article/death-decay-and-the-haunted...
Realistically, working for a lot of the types of companies you mention seems to work out quite well for a lot of people. That "a lot of people" who look down on them are generally not the ones handing out jobs and such. It might matter more if the person in question is thinking of making a career change into politics or something.
Cyanoacrylate works on PLA, but PLA is notably not amenable to solvent welding or smoothing with household supplies compared to the ease with which ABS/ASA (acetone) or PVB (isopropyl alcohol) pieces can be fused together.

It is marginally possible to fuse pieces of PLA together using ethyl acetate (sold to consumers as "acetone-free nail polish remover" or "MEK substitute"), but this is not nearly as accessible, effective, or reliable compared to other plastics.
'prosperous society' ~= convenience, less human hours wasted on boring stuff. The convenience of a video doorbell and connected home sure seem worth it to me.
The article seems confused on the meaning of "per se". It specifically says the phrase is used to refer to the symbol as a letter and not the word, but then goes on to describe it as if they are talking about the word. Someone should rewrite the article to make it clearer.
It should be mentioned here that posting these kinds of macho signs are not a good idea. They may open you up to criminal and/or civil penalties, depending on your local laws and the whims of the judicial system.

It's going to be an "if," not a "when." The percentage of users who want to manage their own cloud is vanishingly small. If people are sensitive to the risk of handing over their data to a trusted (well, trusted enough) corporation with a reputation to lose and money on the line, how safe should they feel putting their data on a cloud they manage, essentially stacking themselves up against every Joe Random Hacker on the Internet without the benefit of a Google, Microsoft, or Amazon SRE team to keep the shields up and the lights on 24/7?

The risk surface for self-hosting is higher, on multiple axes, than cloud-hosting. Hosting your own cloud is the "I don't trust auto mechanics so I'm going to become an auto mechanic" approach and most people have neither the time nor the talent.
Figure 2 shows that the CD material is used kind of like electrodes or probes and those are attached to a microcontroller. This makes much more sense to me than the headline and main article.

Vaccines are drugs that trigger immune system response. Always have been.

Oh man there has been many things.

1. I loved someone so much that being scared of losing her really caused issues in our relationship. I later realized I wasn't actually a good boyfriend but a controlling asshole. We dated many years. In the end she cheated on me and that is when I completely cut off communication.

2. Having a child was also life changing. So little time but also so little care for anything but him. Also, if I could stop working I would do it now. It is such an interesting time full of love, frustration and sometimes a bit of anger. Child are great but also extremely difficult.

3. Taking an antibiotic (cipro) and not being able to walk for weeks due to severe pain. On top of that 40+ physicians telling me, it's impossible or all in my head. Then, the warnings were updated multiple times, to include tendon damage, damage to heart, nerve damage. Some of it has improved but still have some annoying nerve issues years later. I am hoping to start my masters in CS and develop software to help patients not have to deal with denying physicians. For example, on average it takes 10 years to diagnose a patient with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and MANY MANY physicians. Anyone on this forum could do it, provided with simple steps to follow. Something ain't right.
I don't necessarily view life as a toleration of living and waiting until death, o hope for a "real thing" after death. I'm more hoping for something along of the lines of a "next phase" like transition from school life to working life. The idea the equation of experiences and knowledge if your life ends with an ...)*0 is just depressing. I'd like to continue to build on my life experiences and reconnect with loved ones, at least in some sense in relation to my individual experience, not a metaphorical one - if that makes sense.
We did have a big system that used JSON file on disk. The problem is over time we ended up with files with half a JSON, and needed a "cleanup" pass. Except of course the cleanup might find a file in the process of being written, and life slowly got more and more complicated.
Congratulations on launch! Access control is an excellent area to modularize IMHO, and your approach of edge cache and data sync is a smart way to improve availability.

This area is a rapidly-increasing market need. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), and Relationship-Based Access Control (RelBAC) are all growing in technical complexity and business importance, because users are intermixing more physical devices (e.g. laptop, phone), in more environmental contexts (e.g. remote, cross-border), and with more sophisticated needs for controls (e.g. co-action, delegation).
It is far, far better to set up your own personal cloud and run your own encrypted video capture system.

You get both security AND privacy.
A very good point, which is sadly absent from most of the public discussion.

Having said that, a case could be made that this (lab leak via market) is a distinction without a difference.
> Give people an education, gratifying jobs, a purpose in life and crime will drop.

I agree with everything but the first word of this sentence, "give". The challenge is that you cannot "give" someone self-respect, purpose in life, or gratitude. These are things which must be internally developed by people through their life experiences. The best we can do as a society is improving early childhood development and parenting, but once someone is an adult, it is exceptionally difficult to impossible to change someone's direction absent any desire to change on that person's part.

The people doing these things are generally young adults or adults. Someone is not breaking into my garage to steal my tools because of "poverty" except in the most abstract definition. Generally, it's to feed a drug addiction, a drug addiction the person acquired due to self-medicating for ennui and depression or other mental health issues, mental health issues that may be partially caused by environment or genetics (we don't know, social / psych science is not there yet), and contributed to by the state of society and a complete lack of self-respect (someone with self-respect wouldn't stoop to theft).

The opposition to your mode of thinking isn't "oh no socialism", it's about complete elimination of accountability, respect, ethics, and root cause analysis as part of the process. You cannot "give" someone an improvement in their internal state. Or as the saying goes "You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink."
>>some how condemning recklessly promiscuous behavior isn't ok b because it's not pc or whatever.

It's not about being PC you crumpet, it's about having a shred of human empathy. You can practice safe sex and still get any of those diseases, having them is not a proof you weren't careful or that you were taking unnecessary risks.
Many people are charged with crimes related to automotive accidents (DUI, for instance, or laws related to cell phone usage). We require drivers to carry insurance. We are constantly regulating things to reduce deaths and injuries in automotive accidents (seat belts, crumple zones, airbags, forced recalls, etc.) - we constantly think about automotive accidents when a human is behind the wheel. Why should we just shrug when some Tesla mows down a pedestrian while the driver is watching youtube videos?
That’s an interesting theory and i suppose not even that far fetched

It's transparently obvious that the Market was first place where it began to spread in humans - so "neither" isn't an option. The Market was unequivocally involved.
Are you sure COVID has never been documented in animals? I seem to remember reading about cases where entire farm populations of minks were being killed. Perhaps you mean infection from an animal host to human?
No, it's monitored by datadog.
The example by itself doesn't explain why I can easily grok that `.parent &` is a selector with nesting, but the parser can't. The `&` marker is introduced for nesting in the first place, so adding another one to specify that it's definitely hundred-percent pinky-swear artisanal nesting looks plain dumb.
Assessing Variability in Vascular Response to Cocoa with Personal Devices
Very Opera Unite. Making the session itself a resource on the web seems so natural. Having "serverless" as an idea both makes it easy to see & understand that, but also applies a certain filter or spin on the idea. Cool creative project.
1)

Basically, for message-based devices like mice, because the RawInput API just simply posts messages to the application's message queue, the events arrive in exactly the order as had been generated by the hardware. All the application needs to do is to process them message-by-message, rather than lumping the result together as a single state.

In the glfw code you linked, you can see that they use `PeekMessage` as a non-blocking way to check for presence of events in the message queue. This is also the case for basically every other frameworks too like SDL2, when what they should be doing instead is have a separate lightweight thread that runs the blocking `GetMessage` counterpart, and the very first line to execute right after `while GetMessage` is to query the high-precision timer to timestamp the exact instant that the OS places the message in the queue.

Frameworks that offer "blocking" versions of their API call don't actually use the blocking call, they just simply skips the game loop until they happened to poll a message, so it is still beholden to the poll timing rather than the OS's unblock timing.

Thanks, I actually found the same link after Googling the tutorial name of the rotted link. I'm actually looking to have Rust as my "main" system programming language.

However, the biggest annoyances for all of the compiled language that I've surveyed is the lack of a "dummy-proof" portable way to set up the toolchain, unlike AutoIt where I can drag the text file to an exe and instantly test it. I really dislike having dependencies installed on my main OS; Docker as a "click and forget" compiler was promising at first but the setup process is still something that I had to look up, which just eventually became too much of a cognitive hassle and ended up reverting to the "easy prototyping" languages whenever I'm doing anything exploratory, which means that I never ended up having those exploratory scenarios being applied on the languages that I needed to familiarize myself with.
That would assume that nest and ring cameras are even capable of making out license plates. They're all crappy sensors with horrible night vision.
Wow, what a great way to kill yourself and/or your family. Thanks for the tip!
Kids being left at home to "go to school" in VR has obvious economic benefit.

You don't have to spend time in the morning to make sure the kid is ready for school, if your kid is gifted you don't need special transportation to the magnet school for gifted kids, you can have remote monitoring instead of parent teacher conferences, way easier to deal with bullying, e.t.c.

For teachers as well, they can teach from home, which means they don't have to be colocated in the same area as the school, and so on.
I’ve consistently used &c. (almost always in italics, too, as was the custom due to the convention of italics for foreign language words, but especially also because it yields even prettier results in many fonts—the “et” is more likely to come through in italics¹) for 8½ years now.² I’ve only been asked about it twice (once “what is that?” and once “I think you made a typo”), though I’ve probably confused or surprised more people than that, and there have been a few occasions over the years when I’ve deliberately used “et cetera” instead.

I also type typographic punctuation (curly quotes, em dashes in sentences, en dashes in ranges and such, narrow no-break spaces, true hyphens and minus signs in some contexts, &c.) completely naturally with my Compose key. If you get ' from me, I meant ' rather than ‘ or ’. Or I was using my phone. I should see about adding some of this stuff to wvkbd.

It’s all good fun. :-) (And that emoticon would have been U+1F642 SLIGHTLY SMILING FACE, entered with `Compose : )`, but I went ASCII since HN strips emoji.)

I also deliberately adopted an idiosyncratic written form for my ampersands maybe five years ago, based on the 8-with-legs shape, where I omit the bottom right leg, starting halfway between the ending line and the 8 intersection. I decided this was prettier and slightly more legible.

I… I suspect I might have become a typography snob somewhere along the way. I’m just going to disguise it with the excuse that I like to be correct.

—⁂—³

¹ For example, find the &c. in https://chrismorgan.info/blog/rust-fizzbuzz/, and compare its beautiful curly etty ampersand with the boring non-italic ampersand in the same font in “What’s the deal with this &str”. (I’m assuming the use of the serif Equity font that I load on the page.)

² Judging by my HN comments, I switched some time between January 29, 2014 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7141477 is my last comment where I wrote “etc.”) and February 12, 2014 (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7223153 is my first comment where I wrote “&c.”).

³ `Compose h r`, horizontal rule like the HTML tag. For other characters, ½ was `Compose 1 2` (possibly the only stock mapping used in this comment), and the superscript numbers for footnotes are `Compose ^ 1` and so forth.

I wonder how many people who are seemingly willing to believe the self-serving CCP party-line on this, would be just as believing of the owners of a nuclear power plant in their town, once the drinking water became radioactive, claiming "it didn't come from the plant, someone else down the street must have done it" - that is just about as believable as this.
They don’t. As you note, it wouldn’t make any sense for them to do so.

It’s one of those perverse things that they are some of the few companies that actually don’t sell user data, and yet they’re the ones that are most frequently accused of it.

I don’t think it helps us in keeping big tech companies to account when we spread false information about them.
Seems a provision like that would make each dollar less effective. Also seems it push the bill from being focused on tech R&D and to more of a general economic stimulus.

I may be misunderstanding. The only research I’ve done on this is to read the article you linked.
It seems a bare minimum is releasing enough data that the public can assess whether it is better on average. Right now, Tesla releases data that show that when autopilot is engaged, it is safer on average. However, this data is not adjusted for the fact that the miles where users choose to activate it are on average safer. So really some sort of base-risk adjusted comparison would be the bare minimum I would like to see them publish. They really don't share much data.
Even if we accept some statistical failure rate, we should still investigate lethal failures. Like any good RCA it may uncover some learnings that could help the implementation and/or regulations around self driving.

There is a Division C 'SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS TO ADDRESS THREATS TO THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES' rider in there - sort of strange. They allocate $10.3M to increase the security of the supreme court. Doesn't seem to have anything to do with the subject of the bill.

People show love in different ways. (There's a book called "The 5 Love Languages"; even if you don't buy the details of the book, the idea is likely correct.)

If your spouse shows love in a different way than the way you expect to receive love, that can be confusing. Figuring this out is a big part of making relationships work.
I imagine it fell out of use as a letter because it's a vowel-consonant ligature. Those seem weird, e.g. `S&` instead of `SET`?
For pentesting (not bounties) I can recommend HackTheBox + IppSec on youtube. Watch a couple of his videos of retired machines to get an idea of the typical workflow (scanning, what to look for etc.). Focus on one type of easy machine (Linux) and then start working on the machines. Set a target to get all easy machines at first and go from there.

I set up a Kali VM to do all my HTB stuff from and keep a notebook of my typical flow so the process is pretty simular for each box I attack. The easy boxes usually require you to somehow identify a waekness and use a ready made exploit for it (or some easily reproducable steps). Privesc is usually also pretty straightforward. However they are not supereasy by any means if you've never done this.
