IMO a lot of these studies on untrained are fairly pointless, this one on extra strength particularly so. Reality is basically anything works for novice lifters and unless you're genetically blessed in hypertrophy department, moving bluntly bitch weights and slight more bitch weights doesn't meaningfuly impact end results for gen pop. I've forgot the exact numbers but I recall metastudy of strength to muscle mass to longevity/health ratio, i.e. entire strong people live longer narrative pointed that the baseline of strength and muscle mass one needs to benefit from meaningful health affects is greater than (from what I've observed after years in the gym and especially those who don't progress/quit before reaching ) novice tier fuckarounditis workouts. Granted ultimately it's about finding routines one can consistently stick to but also one that builds up the base of strength and hypertrophy for health effects. And that's totally possible doing a little exercise once a day, if little = enough.

However if exercising lackadaisical a little everyday and after a year you're stalled doing a dozen pushups and a couple pullups then maybe try something else that raises your baseline so that you can now trivially perform 50 push ups and 5 pullups everyday. Sometimes it's even better spend a little time doing methods you don't enjoy because with respect to strength and muscle mass, they can typically be maintained by methods you do enjoy, i.e. I trained myself to bench/deadlift 2/3x bodyweight, but I can take a long barbell break doing not much sets of max pullups and dips and squats to maintain most of my muscle mass, which is more than most people need for optimal health and probably detrimental. Point is, spend a few months to do basic barbell novice progression, maybe put in effort to milk some intermediate gains, the entire 80/20 rule and find yourself suddenly able to perform better in other domains and maintain performance through methods more amenable to your life style. For gen pop, probably good to set goals to weight + bf% and some minimum level of strength according to age and weight, especially lowerbody/hip strength if we're worried about old folks dying from falls. Surprised there aren't recommended fitness standard like military fitness minimums.
You still need a minimum level of intensity. You won't be improving strength with something that you can lift 50 times.

One way to measure perceived exertion is how many additional reps you think you can do - if you're doing 10 reps at a weight where you can only do 10, then you're obviously at some risk of having worse form / injury; if you're doing 10 reps at a weight that you can lift 12-15 times, you'll probably get stronger, if you're doing 10 reps at a weight you can lift 25-30 times, you likely won't make a lot of progress.
I really like your style. I think you should write a book

The Javascript inserts an image 'https://pathview-analytics.com/response.gif?url='+e(d.locati... I'd add a timestamp to the URL to avoid browser caching. And use a separate domain or subdomain because with any success adblockers will add the URL to their block lists an that could block the whole domain.

Some ad trackers use CNAME DNS entries, e.g. mytracker.mydomain.com points to tracker.pathview-analytics.com but adblockers also do the DNS resolution now, an arms race. (https://www.theregister.com/2021/02/24/dns_cname_tracking/)
I think partially it's a generational thing.

The people with the free time to build custom ROMs were mostly school and university people. They were keen on phones because they were new and cool.

Back in the 60's, everyone was modding cars because they were quickly developing and cool.

Phones are now old tech, and to young people are nothing special, so they won't put months of time into developing mods.

Quite what the new equivalent is I'm not sure - perhaps being a content producer on tiktok et al?

With the right mindset it can be insanely fun building infrastructure, automating things, and engineering solutions such that improvements ratchet forward and fires get put out before they have a chance to grow. While the ML people, bless them, are chasing an 0.001 improvement in the metric of the day, data engineers can be having huge impact and changing the game. Meantime ML is becoming commoditized in its most common use cases.
You need resting days.
I use termdown to run timers in my terminal. Back when we only had a pressure cooker and couldn't afford an automatic rice cooker, I wrote a bash function "rice" that would give instructions for cooking it in the pressure cooker. Kinda silly in retrospect, but it did ease the pain of being broke a bit:

function alarm_forever() {
# play one part of the track at a time so that this function can be killed any time
while :; do
afplay --time .72 ~/sounds/alarm.mp3;
done
}

function alarm_until_input() {
alarm_forever &
pid=$!;
read -n 1 -p "$*";
kill -9 $pid;
}

# pip install termdown
function timer {
termdown $@;
alarm_until_input "[Press any key to stop]"
}
alias alarm="timer"

# TODO: ask if user soaked the rice first
function rice {
echo "1. Wash rice. Place in pressure cooker with 1-1 water-rice ratio."
echo "2. Place the pressure cooker on the stove on high."
read -n 1 -p "3. When the pressure pot starts whistling, press any key to start the timer."
termdown --title "Tweet!" 2m
alarm_until_input "4. Take pot off heat and press any key."
termdown --title "RICE" 11m
alarm_until_input "5. Open the pot and stir the rice immediately."
alarm_until_input "6. Eat!"
}
> Any weight you can do 10reps of is unlikely to be near your 1rm max.

Most people can't do 10 reps at 85% intensity, it's closer to 70-75%.
Why would you possibly want to do such a thing towards yourself?
Interesting article. I considered a lot of new things for myself. I have a small business and I used almost the same service as my wife. Here the principle of work is similar. method of advertising your product or service to potential customers with a virtual phone number assigned to your banners, ads, etc. It's called https://dialics.com/pay-per-call/
I'm currently building a service for exactly this. It's still in Alpha but it allows you to take short 4-5min breaks with friends (+ voice chat) with instructed stretches + strength exercises. https://www.pausewith.me

As I said, still in Alpha, but I'm always happy for constructive feedback.
I tried it, hit a few bugs and immediately switched. The right click menu for the language bar was stuck on the desktop forever which annoyed me right away. It happens in Windows too, and I just don't want to use buggy software.

Gnome has lots of bugs too, but they are not obvious and in my face like this.
Very interesting. Question...

For a while, I kept a pair of shiny chrome dumbbells atop table, and could impromptu pick them up and use, when pacing and thinking about a design problem, without thinking much about the exercise itself.

If I resumed this, doing it several times a day, for only a few minutes at a time, it'd have a big impact?

(I also used to have a Concept2 erg in my work area, but somehow using that was more interrupting.)
The only two I'd even recognize are "tptacek", because he appears to be so often in a really bad mood when posting and prolific karmacollector "tomte", who (I assume) tries to politicize HN furthering a personal social justice warrior agenda.
Zero of their flagship models have been released AFAIK, e.g. the pre-DALLE model, CLIP, has not had weights for its ViT-H/16 model released from a paper 19 months ago.

This was before DALL-E and way before DALL-E 2.

Not that I think they need to. It’s just weird people defend them as being open just because they release crippled versions of their model.
nice, my biggest problem with c is macros and how to build something. Make files are freaking horrible, tup seems like a nice alternative that keeps it simple. Simplicity is important. Complexity is the result of bad design.
It would be foolish for me to make any judgements based on anecdotes I find in comments, but this is actually quite worrying to me since I have been recommending Hetzner to people who trust me. (Based on having used them for a few years).

So I guess what I really need to understand is whether this is a typical response or if there is more to the story that I don't understand/see.

If you are no longer using Hetzner, which other vendor(s) are you using?
This is already beyond planned obsolescence. This is purely scamming the users to pay a buttload of money in their repair centers. Here a new screen is about 650€, when the MacBook itself comes out of the shelves for about 1500€.

You can see how Apple managed to make itself one of the richest companies in the world. It wasn't for being customer friendly, they have a support even worse than some chinese brands.
Wow. Hubris found. Do you mean experts when you say experts or are you limiting yourself to "experts in the USA"?

No need to use the segments. Just as you can compute straight line-Bézier intersections by setting them equal and solving the resulting equation, you can compute Bézier-Bézier intersections by setting them equal and solving the resulting equation.

Same question. Why would you punish an employee that is going to be loyally staying at your company by giving them less and incentivizing them to leave you for a different company that gives more vacation from the start?

If I have 10+5 max from tenure and I am in year 2, why would I stay at your company instead of jumping ship to another company that offers 15+5? Or even just flat 15 for that matter.

What's next, you incentivise me not to quit by my health plan only paying 50% of the bills, going up by 10 percentage points with each year of tenure?

Of course much of this gets muddled up in the general overwork culture. Culminating in the 'unlimited vacation' policies that use social pressure to not be 'the guy' that took the most vacation.

The C bits of the kernel aren't even written closely to any C specification - they are written to, essentially, "what gcc does and is likely to keep doing". They also use a number of gcc extensions which are underspecified compared to C itself.

I'm not sure this is a real concern for the Linux kernel devs.
> But as a foreigner, most of the companies weren't a good fit. Some were too domestic. A lot didn't have any other westerners working there.

This is a great way to think about how important an inclusive company culture is to you - do you want your org to be thought of by non-natives like many HN posters would think of an old school Japanese one? In what ways is it unattractive to non-natives and do you actually value those characteristics?
not necessarily two per load: I was guessing that frequently all loads succeed would dispatch to a happy path and any load failing to a not-so-happy path.

(with the hopes that this might allow a software-defined rough equivalence to TFA's "An out-of-order machine starts off like the first example in early iterations, and transposes into the second example when a cache miss happens, or over many iterations of the loop if not decode limited." Or at least enough to be worthwhile given a factor of 2 power win from not using OoO?)

How temporally responsive is branch prediction these days? I'd guess there'd be a fair amount of locality, in that the $ status of one iteration's data would be highly correlated with another iteration's.
I use signal/whatsapp etc without giving them access to my contacts. I have to type in the phone number (only first time) with whom I want to chat. And that's okay.

Sorry, did you just say you liked gnome 3 yet told us that the file manager isn't great?

I use mod + left/right to move my windows on Mate. Alt tab still works fine. Mod + r shows the run box which shows all the same entries as the menu. I used gnome 2 for many many years but also kde 3.5 (Konqueror did everything!) so the modern gnome 3 experience seem dysfunctional to me. I even used gnome 1 - must have been on RedHat 6.2?

One thing I can't stand on the modern gnome apps is the hamburger menu and popout menus that are impossible to spawn from the keyboard. Eg. alt-f won't bring up that menu so you have to fumble around with the mouse.

But thank goodness gnome exists, whether in gnome2-forever guise or the "modern" (I would say less-useful) 3.
The original post never said they were using these lists to send unsolicited emails. It's your assumption they are a spammer; while I said I can imagine non-nefarious reasons to collect these lists.

For example: A lot of pentesting companies offer "darknet research" as part of their engagement; these have a non-nefarious use for these leaks, including private addresses: Given a list of customer's employees it's easy to guess some obvious Gmail/GMX/Yahoo/... addresses and check if they might be affected by any leaks (password reuse is pretty popular, especially with the not so technically minded).
Troy Hunt, who runs haveibeenpwned, uses these lists as well; I suppose he normalizes Gmail, too.

Yes, OP could still be an evil /dudett/..., but while "innocent until proven guilty" might not be a HN rule, it's still something I like to assume about random people in the internet.
She said her pay was 80% below market. Not is. Why move if you can stay and get paid the same?
When I did web development, I specifically loaded JS lazily so first you got a pure HTML page with just a few lines of code. Those lines of code are normal (not jQuery) JS that loads the rest of the JS lazily in a progressive enhancement. This means the page can start being rendered before the jQuery code loads.

But in fact, jQuery is largely not needed since Internet Explorer lost market share and there's less of a need to have lots of workarounds for it.
That is completely normal. For example, I lose about 0.5-1kg of weight after a week of not training, and I look pretty flat. That will mostly be water tho.

After two weeks without training and while eating a shit (but oh so tasty) diet and drinking wine everyday for one of those two weeks, I lost about 20% of strength on the main lifts. And it felt way worse than that. But it’s just a temporary loss, and I was back up after a couple of weeks.

My unsolicited advice is to not worry about it and just start from what you end up being capable of after a break. It probably is not your first, and it definitely won’t be your last because life happens.
There’s quite a few HN usernames who have bot-like quality and post nothing but random news all day/all year.

This tool would not help us.
I made a userscript for that once, ages ago. It stopped working after HN updated something and I was too lazy to fix it. It made threads a lot more readable, honestly.
More charitably, the GP could be suggesting that Discord should have gone to a lower layer in the stack by using their own hardware, which would let them choose a more appropriate storage substrate instead of layering on top of an inappropriate one.
The focus of the people you have linked is about exercise in the context of a gym and diet is about calories. I would like to argue that being healthy and fit is not about the gym, or investing time in tracking calories.

Instead we should focus on daily fun movements that we like to do. So it doesn't feel like a chore and easy to maintain within your lifestyle. This could fall under different categories such cardio (walking , cycling) and some resistance training like body weight exercises. These are called Micro workouts, and can be done during the day. A great (nerdy) guy who is quite far on that path is the bioneer.

And for food we should try to focus on whole foods and not calories and almost no-one should try to diet like a body builder prepping for a show. They feel terrible and you are priming the body to store energy in the fat cells.

Humans have been healthy for very long without the gym or calorie counting. Both are large time investments that can be better spent elsewhere

I'm somewhat critical:

> One group did this six times a day for five days a week (6×5). The other group completed all 30 contractions in a single day once a week (30×1)

While this may appear effective for complete noobies, I suspect that the hailed effect will quickly go to 0 when you get even just a little more advanced. To make progress then you can't avoid longer "Time under Tension" sets for your muscles. Which also becomes increasingly impractical to spread 5 times over a day as you first need to properly warm up each time.
> move into low level programming (C/C++/Rust)

Not sure what you mean by that. These languages are not managed ("not garbage collected"), but certainly not low-level programming.

There are services written in them.

If money is more important for your life phase (marriage, kids, house, etc.), learn in your free time.
Except if someone can sniff your outgoing RF... given that the power reflected back from the very distant object would have a gigantic attenuation (just the path to the moon has ~250 dB attenuation), you would have to use an enormous RF output power. But at this point, anyone close enough to the transmitter (even if you use highly directional antenna) could basically sniff the key being transmitted.
Why Lisp is the most productive programming language [video]
If done properly this can be nice but a common grief is when interactive elements (input fields/buttons/links, including in flowing text) move around after first becoming visible. The worst is input fields that get cleared or grabbing focus (this is way too common; not stellar to have to password reset due to typing half a password in an auto-complete search field) as part of this process after the user has already started inputting data.
I've been upvoting some of the greyed out ones because they seem to actually contribute to the topic. Which ironically makes them non-greyed out and harder to find.

I am not actively thinking about "asians" in a racist way. For me this is a term that describes people coming from certain geographical background which is distinct from say "europeans" or "north americans" or "africans" or "indians" or "latinos".

It is useful term because all these groups come from different environment with a different history and all are distinct enough from other environments that it makes the name useful to describe certain things.

It does not mean that all asians or europeans are the same. Any thinking person understands that talking in general is useful to describe certain things but also understand there is much more subtlety and exceptions under every statement like that.

So we know that people from different backgrounds have different IQs, education or predisposition to different health issues. It is not racist, these are just statements of facts.

Racist is when you try to take these facts and paint them to discriminate or entice discrimination against people just for the fact they share same background.

So when I say that "asians typically care less for privacy" is a statement of fact. You have to contend with the fact that not all people around the world care about privacy the same way and the moment you do so you understand there are some identifiable groups of people that care less.

If I somehow did this to communicate that asians are somehow worth less as people because they care about privacy that would be racist. That would be coming as view of a person from a western country somehow telling that people who do not value same things as me are somehow worth less. Which is a stupid an narrow way of thinking about the world.

When I say "asians value privacy less" and you say "this is prejudice/racism against asians" what it really is is your racist brain. You are saying that your western values are better than values of people coming from some other region.

Part of being racist is being closed to the idea that other peoples have different values that aren't necessarily better or worse.

The short term will obviously be problematic for those people. However, in the mid term they can move some of those service activities to residential areas instead of business districts (provided that zoning regulations become less senseless than they are now), and in the long term those demographics can be redirected to more productive endeavours (by the combination of the appearance of new industries that leverage increased workforce availability and a general decrease in working hours).

Sorry, no. The term "ML scientist" was specifically created by/for data folks to get rid of unpleasant repetitive work with math equations that has to be done but nobody looks forward to it.

If you've ever crafted a pipeline and tuned it to hum along, then watched it break with new/more/messier data, then figured out creative ways to fix it or replace parts of it with more robust parts, iterating on that and scaling it up, you would know some of the fantastic pleasure of whatever you call it, data engineering.
It happens, but there is an economic advantage in putting up with such breakages, while on GNU/Linux systems that money bag isn't there to keep game studios interested other than testing waters and running away afterwards.
There's a lot of negative angles towards AI art generation, many of which I personally agree with. But at the same time we should not be blind to possibility.

I think this example, even if rough around the edges here and there, looks incredibly promising to me in the field of education. To make dry subjects far more engaging. We're visual creatures after all.

Yes, obviously. Coming to work is what that means. If you are working from home, you are not technically going anywhere since you are already there. Coming to work does not mean "starting to work". It implies a change of location.
If you want to do research, I'd recommend an academic path. Get an MS from a reputable university. If you can't do that, try to follow their syllabus on your own (textbooks, articles).

MOOC are a starting point, they often offer classes with little pre-requisites, but that'll only get you so far.
