Much of my use of ratcheting screwdrivers has been replaced by power tool screwdrivers.

If you know how to juice it, you can do amazing things with a bit driver, especially since you can put a lot of force to keep the bit set and still get it to turn.
we can also burn the "waste" we are insanely intent on burying in different reactor designs.
My ratchet driver is Stanley. It's about 15 years old, and it has no faults, other than being too fat for some jobs; the shaft has a sort of rolodex for bits built-in, and it can get in the way. I don't think Stanley make this driver any more (Stanley are not the toolmaker they used to be).
A few months ago I had a pleasant technical interview with Snowflake.

First, the interviewer was very supportive and cooperative, it felt almost like a friendly talk between two colleagues. He did not try to outsmart me or catch on some tricky detail.

Also, the questions were very good - we discussed how to build a distributed data processing system, a very relevant and on the right level for the position I applied (Engineering Manager).
That would be so interesting - could be many a sci-fi stories created on that premise.

Some mechanical robot/starship storing frozen embryos for 100 years to be released on a far-away exoplanet, the starship taking care of them while they grow up and learn how to live on this new world - the beginnings of a new civilization - a technological adam and eve of sorts.
MTAs can be configured to additional transforms before looking up the account. For example, postfix's virtual table [0] can be used for this and on my server it does elide dots in the local part (along with everything else).

Those who can't compete in the market, compete in the courtroom.

ARM has had something of a secure niche until recently - markets that Intel ignored or did poorly in. But now there is renewed competition from x86, attractive alternatives (and perhaps even momentum) behind RISC-V, still MIPS buzzing around. And anyone who is serious enough can engineer their own ARM-compatible chips without licensing entire cores from ARM.

So this really puts some focus on ARM having to produce a steady stream of superior products. Can they? I guess the thing with NVidia was a major distraction...
I have a similar opinion.

I find that modelling SQL tables first removes the “where in the JSON-like tree should this live” question - often a single object type lives in many places in the tree.

Breaking data into atomic units and then building up any JSON-like structures you require with queries is very flexible, and solves persistence first.

ORMs seem to solve persistence second after modelling your data as JSON-like in-language objects.

Persistence needs to be solved as disk is cheaper than RAM and your program cannot live forever with data in RAM.
> If we could figure out how to reduce global consumption of resources in the first place

The most obvious solution there is to build things to last longer. But in the current environment, companies ate strongly incentivised to do the opposite.
If we're pitching our favorite bags, I'm going to throw in DEFY bags because they're made in Chicago up the street from my house. I've owned one for 5-6 years now and it's been absolutely bulletproof carrying all my shit all over the world.

A good deal cheaper than GoRuck as well.

I am a multiple meetup organizer and owner on meetup.com and I find it actually great that the meetup can stay alive if the organizer stop to pay.
Your communities are not owned by you.
Also, they don't give subscribers infos but just "an access" to send them email communication to the list, not the "list" with email list etc...
In this case, Cloudflare. They have the right to decide who gets to use their service or not. It's an amazing freedom because they're not a utility.

But they're not free from criticism of their decisions.
I don't disagree with you on any of this, I think that's a fairly non-controversial opinion. What about things like letting males into female only spaces? Do we have a moral obligation to affirm their identity? Several religions present a duty for women not to expose themselves to men so we have a conflict.
The moon is a very very very large dead rock. No amount of mining by humans will effect its mass, orbit or effect on tides by any measurable amount. We would literally have to mine more each day than has been mined by all of human history and then do it for thousands of years for there to be even the tiniest measurable impact on earth's ecosystems.

There are actual economic and environmental concerns with moon mining (e.g. launch/recover pollution, high costs, etc). But the sorts of concerns you linked to are not them.
I’ve never seen a program where the lockout can’t be overridden, like someone said in the article-generally the consequences are that overriding the lockout more than a couple times a year loses your incentives.

A cynic might say that the feature to “really lock you out” was always there/planned. Either way, damn the developers who built it, probably sitting in an air conditioned (or heated) room and thinking it could never happen to them. Or that they knew better than the stupid consumers, “who would just be uncomfortable for a bit”.

Not that the incentives are usually worth that much, either. If people rely on stable temperature at home for anything living and not-human, too, it’s really not worth participating.
SALT_VERSE just uses still images generated by DALL•E-2 and Midjourney. They're animated using techniques that have already been around for a long time: panning around and zooming in and out of a larger frame, fake raster-to-3d effects (auto projection mapping), typical After Effects transitions. There are some overlaid face animations done with something along the lines of NVIDIA's Audio2Face. None of it is video generated by SD, DALL•E-2 and Midjourney.

There have been some actual video explorations of SD's latent space, this example amazes me: https://twitter.com/karpathy/status/1559343616270557184
>Qualcomm have an architectural license?

Clearly stated in the case they do. But having a license doesn't mean you get to do whatever you want with it.
Asserting that "anyone can learn moderately complex subject X if they just study enough" differs very little from conservatives saying "anyone can get a good job if they work hard enough".

Some humans have limiting factors beyond a lack of education and/or work ethic. For example, someone who lacks the cognitive ability for abstract thought, or the working memory to chain multiple mental constructs together is probably never going to understand pointers, no matter how hard they try or how long they study them.

They may eventually be able to replicate examples they were shown with enough repetition, but purely as a function of memory recall, not a function of understanding what's actually going on.

These kinds of assertions can come across as very disempowering and dismissive to such people, just a heads up.
The article’s argument is to be language-agnostic, not domain-agnostic.

For example, for a Django web app, would you hire someone who

* doesn’t know python but has done full stack web development in another framework (eg rails, express, .NET, etc)

Or

* knows python really well but has never built a web app

I’d rather hire the web developer in that case. A new language isn’t too hard to pick up compared to learning all about how web apps are constructed.

In your example, NLP is a domain, like web programming. Domain expertise takes much longer to develop than picking up another language in the same domain.
According to the linked reply, you owe us eating your hat. We'll wait for video, thanks.
In the UK, we had a 57% increase in energy bills from July, and we're now looking at another 80% increase from October which is terrifying for a lot of us.

Have you considered the fact that, if someone says, "My child has cancer and will die soon, it makes me so sad," and someone chips in with, "Maybe learn to be less attached to your kid maybe?" that this is clearly cruel. And it's a terrible kind of cruelty because its wrapped in ostensible compassion. It's the misuse of what is essentially a Buddhist principle to attack a person after they've revealed vulnerability. This is representative of a whole category of anti-social interaction that doesn't get enough attention or awareness. (This is similar to how it is underappreciated how the truth can be used to tell lies.) What makes this attack particularly pernicious is that if you push back on it, like I did, you yourself get attacked, because after all the person was just trying to help.
Hinge is much better for this reason. They strictly limit the volume of potential matches you can see, force you to write longer text, etc. It seems much more built for driving real relationships.
Did you read the article? Because I was surprised to see the major deficiencies they are worried about are at night.

When are you advocating people charge their cars again?

Technically true. But that doesn't stop heat from being transferred between the systems, nor the heat dispersion to the atmosphere or waterways.

Yep. I could take a million pictures per day of my cats because they're cute, but those aren't going to be interesting even to me in a couple of years.

I actually try to take what others might consider 'bad' pictures. Someone mowing the lawn, cleaning the cabinets, sweeping the floor, parking at the grocery store, working on some hobby or another, etc. These kind of pictures show "what were we actually up to in those days".

I cannot edit my comment now but I'd hope it was very clear I meant snakeoil salesmen / snakeoil saleswomen. Context is key there but your point is taken and I will try to avoid any possibility of confusion in the future.
I get your point and I wholeheartedly agree… but I’m also having a chuckle thinking that you mean you like to just go nude to concerts and bars with your friends.
I'd start with fine-combing the terms of use and service in place at the time of you agreeing to them (web.archive.org is your friend). Chances are you're SoL but always start there.

As for actions, consider if maybe taking back some control is better than yielding to someone else for next time if control is what you actually desire? There are various federated and/or self-hostable alternatives with way better migration stories.

Or maybe offer meetup lots of money for it back. Not much else you can do.
Meetup.com will first offer a group whose organizer had stepped down to the members of the group. They will not shut down a group easily.

I disagree that they shared emails since I do not think organizers have access you that data.
I would probably count stuff like abugidas and kana as letters in that context.
Great article, but I think it somewhat misunderstands the impetus for the concept. "Data has its place" sounds obvious precisely because "data-driven" has been such a successful concept. The alternative perspective, which used to be very common in our industry and still pops up from time to time, is that metrics are something you write for debugging and business decisions are made by gut feeling or abstract philosophical analysis. (Most software companies had to make decisions this way in the pre-cloud era, because it wasn't usually feasible to collect usage metrics.)
No they should build two new reactors on site and eventually retire old and inefficient hardware.

The site is toxic anyway - locals dont mind it in 'their back yard', infrastructure is there, skilled workers are there, everything is there. Every existing nuclear site in the world should be thinking about sticking another couple of reactors on site!

Handling Heroku's New “Heroku_ext” Schema for Postgres Extensions
From Heroku's changelog [1] today:

In order to offer a more robust Postgres offering we’ve made the following changes to Postgres extensions:

- All Heroku Postgres databases have had the heroku_ext schema added to them for use with Postgres extensions.

- All newly created Postgres extensions will now be installed in the heroku_ext schema.

- The database search_path has been automatically updated to include the heroku_ext schema.

- All currently installed extensions will continue to work as intended.

- If your application code specifically refers to the older Postgres extension schema you will need to update it to refer to the new heroku_ext schema.

- If you are using any custom roles, you may need to append the heroku_ext schema to their search_path.

I never said A or B. My point is super straightforward, having solar is better for the grid than having no solar.
Hinge is the only dating app I’d reccommend. Its much more purposeful in solving the issues you had compared to tinder and bumble.
This seems like a feature to me. It allows members of the group to keep going if the original admin/owner goes away for whatever reason. But I don’t think you get a list of emails, unless that was like one of your screening questions?
I'm always skeptical of listicles... I assume they're good Authors who happen to be developers, not necessarily great ones. I think a good analogy is great law professors who are not necessarily great lawyers in the field - it's a domain thing.
I enjoyed reading your response. I felt it stated something that had not been touched on by other comments.
> Palestinian controlled zones (C) where you can’t even go if you look white as you genuinely risk your lives.

As a blonde guy that spend a lot of time living in area C, going to restaurants, cultural events and even getting salsa lessons, I can't relate to that remark at all. Have you tried it?

In fact AFAIK the PA police has barely any jurisdiction over non-palestinians, they are only allowed to arrest them and wait for Israeli authorities to pick them up.

I've never felt threatened there except for when the Israeli forces or settlers invaded.
Getting a little drunk at a bar or a concert once in a while is a problem?
Oh! I misunderstood your point about versioning. I was thinking versioning of content but you're talking about the API.

That is a harder situation, I think my approach here would be to route requests to the api version on a separate new instance, `v1.example.com/api`, `v2.example.com/api` for example. Any way I can think of handling this scenario in the application layer gets messy right away, but maybe there is a good way I haven't thought about yet. I'll keep this in mind in case as a future feature we could build in or make turn into a plugin perhaps.
I totally agree with you on not texting more than once per week. We coach our restaurants that over-texting is a huge turn off. Every text that goes out has the opt out instructions to "Reply STOP to opt out", so we let restaurant owners know that they need to be respectful to their audience, otherwise they burn a bridge.
Thank you. s/reign/rein

But there’s evidently not enough natgas generation, otherwise we wouldn’t have this issue. There’s not enough because Cali chose not to buy enough (of natgas or something else).

The forecasting argument doesn’t hold water for me - California is the state trumpeting about global warming the longest; if this is because of GW and their own projections didn’t consider it, well…
You forgot Kotlin/Native with Jetpack Composer.

It was Aer.
I run software engineering for a 100% remote company with ~35 developers on 5 continents. In April 2022 I interviewed a senior Python developer from Austin Texas - camera on, full pair-programming exercise, etc. 3 interviews, the guy was awesome. We hired him and assigned him to a development team. A month later I hear from the team that the guy sucks, doesn't know how to program, thick accent, and says his camera is broken even though we just shipped him a brand new machine. We set up a sting operation, forced him to present/share his screen over zoom, and recorded the call. It was some random person in India connecting via a VPN in Dallas to mask the origin of his network calls. In the screenshare recording you could see him quickly switch to a chat window and ask someone else how to answer the question. We fired him and only lost 1 month of salary + a very nice laptop we'll never see again. I learned a valuable management lesson from that one. I bet at a larger company this guy could have flown under the radar for a lot longer than 1 month.
This is the kind of thinking that yields DDT, PFAS, Mao's sparrow famine, dying coral reefs, etc.

Natural systems are extremely complex and intertwined in ways that cannot be comprehended in the slightest. The nearsightedness and expediency of the modern engineer is criminal and should be met with the highest level of justice, his ideations with caution and skepticism.

What's disturbing is that skepticism is taboo. The move fast, break things, disrupt everything ethos is considered noble and desirable. Skeptics are "negative" and "holding us back". They're luddite deplorables who want us to remain in the stone age.

We are living with unprecedented abundance. We don't need to take desperate and risky actions because we are not living in desperate times. We don't need to mine the moon. We need to slow down, take stock, and reap what we've already sown.
> staunchly avoided condemning the publicly stated highly racist views of the President of Israel after I raised them.

This is irrelevant to the question being discussed which is whether anti-Zionism is correlated with anti-semitism. However, I did look up his statements now and yes it appears he is indeed some kind of racist. That's still besides the point.

> very clear anti-zionism correlation to committed anti-racism

Yes, that correlation also exists. That's not at all mutually exclusive with a correlation between anti-Zionism and anti-semitism. As I described above, anti-Zionism is a wide tent with some racist genocidal crackpot conspiracy theorist ethnoreligious nationalists mixed together with true egalitarian anti-racist leftists and liberals.

> One or two nazis holding up a palestinian flag (not somethingk they tend to do a lot) doesnt change that.

Dishonestly euphemistic and you know it.
I thoroughly agree, society was much better before computers came along.
Nearly all chip packaging however happens in mainland China. Including presumably for Nvidia's products.

Show HN: Making Primary Care Free Through Data Arbitrage
Hey HN, my team is in pre-launch for our first-of-its-kind free direct primary care program. We just opened the waitlist for our open-beta. Check it out! I know there are heaps of folks on here who like the idea of universal healthcare but also love innovation from the private sector. We're hoping to slot into that space and advocate on behalf of our patients considering that hospital systems are benefiting from patient data without sharing the benefits. Please don't hesitate to ask questions about the model or tech if you're interested :D
Right but what does Hi add?

Do you say bye at the end of the day? Some people do. I think its weird but some people do it. So at what level of saturation does some silly social convention like saying hi being required before sending an additional message become the expectation vs being something some people do and some people dont?
The decades long push for "renewable" energy at all costs has made any consideration of investing in long term base load generation unpalatable in CA - which is why, as others have pointed out, CA hasn't invested in base load generation since the early 2000s.

It's utter madness. This is 100% a problem of failed policy, zero planning and living in a fantasy world detached from reality.
Truly a surprise change. The new requirements do not appear to be published in the Federal Register, which is a massive screwup that potentially renders the requirements illegal and invalid. My contacts in the trade compliance world are aghast.

Will be interesting to see if Nvidia challenges it.
While true, California also has the infamous Proposition 13, designed in the 70s by conservatives to starve the state of tax income. One of its provisions is that tax increases require a 2/3 supermajority on any tax increases enacted legislature. This effectively gave Republicans a veto on most sources of revenue.

This led to chronic budget deficits, which would often be papered over by issuing bonds, and a variety of "fees". Such as the hated auto registration fee, which was one of the grievances during the recall of Democratic governor Gray Davis.

Eventually we decided we had enough of Republicans, and Democrats gained a super majority in state congress. Now the state is running a surplus. I'm not claiming they have solved our problems, but at least we have money to build things again.
Copper buttons in jeans? No, not yet and very rarely do any buttons in general break compared to zippers which break pretty much all the time.
Indeed, I'm in the EU myself and I've seen several instances of "this site is not available to you due to GDPR".

I'm sure sites that are not specifically targeting the US will consider this too if it becomes too much of a burden.

Why is always the solution to to go somewhere else and screw up?

Go to the moon and harvest. Go to Mars and live there as we ruined mother earth. Mine the deep sea floor.

Why not try to recycle better instead. It's not as sexy, but how about if we could mine the old landfills and mine all the trash we collect?

Why not make more efficient cars than build the silly humongous SUVs and trucks? Less metal use means less mining.
