Could this be related to GMO food? or maybe just the industrialization of food in general?

I also noticed for people born after 1995 there are 18% identify themselves as non-binary these days, I wonder this is also from the same cause, i.e. industrial food related, but I don't have concrete data to back this up.

Longevity is improving slowly, hope one day we can fully catch cancel from onset, I'm aware of quite a few who were taken away by cancers in their 50s or early 60s, sadly.
Luxury car prices have luxury prices on maintenance & repairs. Used luxury cars are not a good deal.
Your post begins "All: please don't post flamebait, including ranting against monarchy or railing against 'the nobility' like it's 1770." To then state that this post "was not about monarchy at all" feels like gaslighting. Perhaps you didn't intend to write about monarchy, but in fact you did.

Why is inequality bad and more importantly, what levels of inequality are acceptable? What is the objective standard here and what are the criteria/reasons that justify that standard?
It would have sufficed to read K&R through, twice. Maybe work the exercises.
I don't think there's an equivalent in the US but I've used OVH in their Canadian datacenters.
I'm sure that's true for a "one shot" reading, but having the sensor continuously attached and, indeed, two sensors (one outward facing, one inward), it seems plausible that they could have devised a new, accurate and continuous temperature measurement method.
MidJourney needs a lot of prompt engineering too. And Dall-E also. If you look at the prompt as an opportunity to describe what you want to see, the results are often disappointing. It works better to think backwards about how the model was trained, and what sorts of web caption words it likely saw in training examples that used the sorts of features you’re hoping it will generate. This is more of a process of learning to ask the model to produce things it’s able to produce, using its special image language.
Not sure if you've made up "consensus reality" as some ironic Orwellian sarcasm, but it's fantastic. As though articular opinions about the merits of Brexit are reality depending on what large segments of the population you ignore :)

But no I think it's even simpler and it's not about what should be. People are generally fairly close minded and are easily upset by hearing about opinions contrary to their own. That's it. It's just the human condition.
Indeed, I've found that money allows people to justify much.
The main one I've been testing (https://github.com/sd-webui/stable-diffusion-webui) has a Docker Compose file.

Grab that, install Docker, install Nvidia's Docker integration, copy the example Docker-env file, and docker-compose up is all you need.

Edit: here's a gist with exact steps I used: https://gist.github.com/geerlingguy/384ed4aba35e3118f2a0f358...
This is great advice. The problem is that it is hard to have the discipline to do this month after month.
You can think of it more like this:
If I do 100 experiments of dropping stones at variable heights and measuring the time it takes for the stone to land on the ground I have enough datapoints to make a linear estimation of gravity by using linear regression. So based on my data I create a model that the time it takes for a stone to fall is sqrt(2h/9.81). Now if you want to figure out how long it takes for your stones to fall, you don’t need to redo all the experiments and can instead rely on the parameters I give you (say 9.81 in this case) to calculate it yourself.

With these models it works exactly the same way. Someone dropped millions of rocks and created a formula of unbelievable complexity and what they now did is they released that formula with all their calculated parameters into the world. What you do when you ultimately use Stable Diffusion is you just calculate the result of this formula and that is your image. You never have to process those images.
yes SN was the hardest installation for me :D, Trilium looks good, will deff try it out, thanks!
What if you're already using your real name on stackoverflow? Then part of that money is to compensate changing names on various sites and perhaps losing history and it in general restricts things you can do for life.
There has to be a joke in here somewhere: We add a language on top to help us with our problems in the original language.

Would building a DSL in the language give you the same dynamic?
Ask HN: How to deal with a co-founder who has wasteful spending habits
My co-founder partner is the CEO of our company and I am the other co-founder. This is a tech company with size of 30 people.

Last month a company retreat event announced and it is scheduled only 5 weeks forward. I learned that with other employees on Slack. It is a 5 day beach vacation to very far away. It cost like 10% of annual revenue of the company and company is barely profitable. It is announced that our business partners also will come so all managers including me must attend (None of our business partners attended). I rejected and didn’t go.

During this economy, how wasting so much money on beaches, midnight parties at pubs, and yacht tours can be normal?

How can I deal with this behavior of treating your partner like any other employee?

How can I fix this communication problem and prevent future abuses?
Right, there was no room in memory for the compiler to implement peephole optimization. Or any other.
I feel that YouTube is too generic of a platform for this. There are other, targeted platforms that do digital courseware much better.
They had no choice? Really?

Check out this archived post from when they took down their photo sharing site: https://web.archive.org/web/20180327235711/https://lytro.wuf...

If they actually wanted to build a popular product with significant longevity, they could have done FAR more to enable people to build on their file format etc.

This "they didn't want to pursue full vendor lock-in at every step of their company; they had no choice" apologism just doesn't stand up to any scrutiny.

More likely, they made a bid to capture a greater share of the value, at the cost of limiting the size of their market, and it predictably failed. Or maybe they were prioritizing some kind of acquisition, over building a company with real longevity.

I don't really know anything about the company besides a short skim through Google, but it just doesn't seem remotely plausible to me that they really truly wanted to make this accessible to more people and cultivate a larger market and ecosystem, but somehow had literally no choice in pursuing their vendor lock-in strategy.

They chose to bet on control over mindshare, and this had predictable consequences.

The one comparing book costs to software, and calling the industry thieves and pirates for charging exorbitant amounts of software had me laugh...

Then I saw the price of the software advertised, like compilers and such, and I whole heartily agree with that guy!
I still find it helpful to use UML diagrams in a classroom setting when describing a project codebase at a high level. For example, this slide diagrams some classes used in a Scheme interpreter:
https://inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/~cs61a/sp22/assets/slides/30-...
(Generated with PynSource)

I also find such diagrams useful in an engineering setting when explaining a codebase or design decision to teammates.
Python is strongly typed so doesn't suffer from coercion errors like js. Pyflakes has been a thing for a decade or two. Type checking is now well supported.
>The whole Fibonacci/nature connection has of course been debunked for about two decades.

What? No. Wrong.

You are just seeking to trash him. You are looking for anything. These little petty critiques. Why?

Also, it isn’t ghost writing when you credit the authors. If I was a prince, I’d be getting help to write my book too. Nice to credit his collaborators. Obviously the topic is his choice, he obviously cares a lot about it.

I’m telling you — after reviewing hundreds of scientific journal papers and books in this topic area, his book has a lot to offer! It is deeply theoretical but also practical — eg his community centered development approach.
Looks like it's xlcalculator:

i'm pretty sure the timing is right to jump back in the game, people are paying kagi, the marginalia threads on here are getting lots of comments and good discussion. people are tired of google and the fact they've let google search rot and even made it intentionally worse and worse for users who aren't ad cows.

so here's to hoping some of the optimism and beauty of the niche search solution you ran can return and is not just relegated to the past
It crates slack, which potentially can be used in the event of some sort of food emergency.
I agree with your point, but I don't know that I'd blame UML for that, I'd blame people.

It still happens today without UML, it's just moved from flow diagrams to powerpoint and word presentations.
I didn't find the sync that hard with pass and iOS (I'm sure Android has something equivalent): Set up a private git repo somewhere and configure passforios to pull from it. I have been running it for a few months now and it's smooth. This assumes you are on Linux or Mac.
I think a better question is why it was ever there in the first place if the numbers are so extraordinarily inaccurate.
The market would accomplish the same thing rationing does, inducing austerity via high prices, but the morale cost wouldn't just be a a lost opportunity to make people feel involved, it would also be resentment, possibly deprivation, and a real need for workers to renegotiate in response to different material costs. Better if you can avoid that in the middle of a war.

(And perhaps the danger the US is in as it responds to war in Ukraine)
I don’t work for a service team. I work in Professional Services. I was working on a project and I found a bug in one of the APIs. I reached out to the service team and they found the bug - it was a 3 line change in some front end code (long story). They put a fix in almost immediately. But as I was tracking the weeks long deployment process across regions, I came to appreciate how costly any changes are at the scale of AWS. You have to measure twice and cut once.

My implementations are for a specific customer and I don’t have to worry about that type of scale where a mistake or miscommunication in requirements can be costly and affect hundreds of customers.

I have made mistakes as a contributor to a popular company sponsored open source project. Even that caused headaches beyond the scale I was use to dealing with.
> YouTube will kill many services in the process like skillshare, udemy, etc.

Honestly I can't get over a cynical impression that the announcement is basically: "brilliant and skillshare are getting a bit too popular, we need to do something about it".
Unless you allow unbounded input there is technically a limit to the amount of memory an N-state Turing machine could possibly allocate (and still halt).
The more naive the observer, the simpler the pseudorandom algorithm necessary for apparent randomness.

For a paramecium a=a+1 might do.
Same experience here. Never saw the point of any of this ephemeral stuff being taught in classes.
In many places, engineers are registered professionals along the lines of doctors or lawyers. As Wikipedia says:

> The foundational qualifications of an engineer typically include a four-year bachelor's degree in an engineering discipline, or in some jurisdictions, a master's degree in an engineering discipline plus four to six years of peer-reviewed professional practice (culminating in a project report or thesis) and passage of engineering board examinations. A professional Engineer is typically, is a person registered under an Engineering Council which is widely accepted.

Personally, I mostly refer to myself as a developer, not an engineer. Funnily, my great-grandfather came to America to work as an "engineer" in the Minnesota mines back when the standards for "engineer" were much looser. I imagine we'll have a similar process in the coming decades, where some sorts of software engineer will be licensed, and that you won't be able to call yourself by that term without getting into trouble.
Maybe they want the dataset for StableDiffusion type stuff.
It's pretty much never checked. You can search for a random name on https://abr.business.gov.au/ and use it.
That's backwards, the point of the GoF book was to document common patterns employed across teams. There was never any intent that you use a design pattern so you can talk about it, that's backwards.
Technically, so did I.
For those suggesting to "just" use KeePassXC and KeePassDX, the sticking point for me is that the UI experience with Bitwarden in my desktop browser and on Android is just so darn good.

How do the KeePass' compare?

P.S. I do use a KeePassXC vault for a small amount of stuff. Discovered KeePassDX for Android this week from a recent HN comment. It is very good. After playing with it for ten minutes I deleted the other two Keepass apps I had on my phone.
please elaborate... you seem to know more than the Scientific community ... your emphasis on Justice seems you have a direct connection to God and you seem to know what happened + can make moral judgments about people.

what to do if your Justice is wrong?
I can't tell if half these comments are from typical developer playing 'I'm technically right / devils advocate' or if google just has a team working on public image.
I am creator of online programming courses (notably the ones on Khan Academy), and I would not feel comfortable delivering a programming course where the sole form of assessment was a quiz. A quiz format can be used to check on some kinds of knowledge, but a programming course requires coding exercises (like the challenges and projects used on Khan).
That being said, for other domains, quiz-style assessment can get you quite far, depending on the sophistication of the quiz software. I like quizzes with multiple answer types, per-answer feedback, spiral assessments, etc.
> In the surprise meeting, they offered a fair chunk of money

People are getting hung up on the dollar figure in replies here, which I think misses the point.

It's super common for companies to tie a severance package (assuming more than statutory requirement, ymmv with jurisdiction) to a non-disclosure, non-disparagement, non-compete that is often far more aggressive than whatever you signed at the beginning. It's definitely worth thinking about whether or not the agreement makes sense to you.

This is one of the big differences with executive contracts; often all of this is already sorted out at time of hire, and everyone is pretty much open eyed about the failure modes.
That isn’t screening though, which by definition occurs in people without symptoms or signs. It is true that better access to healthcare or higher health literacy or more scans being done for other reasons will increase the early detection rate of cancers in younger people. But this almost certainly doesn’t explain the increasing incidence as the article talks about.
i believe they have, as it probably opened the door for too much nefarious use back when it worked well
Are you using the criminalized manufacture and trading of drugs as an example of "free" market failure and a demonstration of why regulated markets work better? Can't tell if it's sarcasm or not.
Yes, but that’s recent and after most of the data in the article was collected.
Would a short description of UML at top hurt. Here I am trying to figure out how thid related to user mode linux. I stopped mid way and had to read comments.

Either way, didn't know UML died, visio still supports it right?
I agree that there is a clear upwards trajectory for improvements. When I was a teenager in 1964, I had access to a teletype hooked up to a remote server on the east coast that supported BASIC. I used punched cards at my first real job, although they later bought me a Xerox 1108 Lisp Machine. After the Lisp Machine I felt like things sort of went down hill. I love git compared to cvs and svn. I don’t like using Jira unless there is someone dedicated and skilled at relieving developers of some of the Agile cruft. I love cloud platforms like GCP, AWS, and Azure. I like continuous integration, Kubernetes, etc., if someone else sets everything up (+1000 for having skilled dev ops people on a team).
It's the other way around; Mozilla Foundation owns the trademark and Mozilla Corporation pays the Foundation to use it. From their 2020 financial statement (https://assets.mozilla.net/annualreport/2020/mozilla-fdn-202...):

> The Corporation and MZLA pay license fees per trademark license agreements with the Foundation. In January 2020, the trademark license agreement was amended between the Corporation and the Foundation, whereby, the Corporation will pay the Foundation a royalty payment based on the Corporation’s annual revenue. The amount of royalties owed are calculated using a tiered rate structure, but at no time will the royalty payment go below the lesser of $11.0 million or six (6)% of search revenue. The Corporation incurred $16.3 million and $15.9 million in license fees to the Foundation in 2020 and 2019, respectively.

> The trademark license agreement between MZLA and the Foundation stipulates that MZLA will pay the Foundation a royalty payment based upon the revenue generated from certain products. MZLA paid $63,787 and $0 in license fees to the Foundation in 2020 and 2019, respectively.
There's still a need to limit the TLDs. In small increments it doesn't matter if we add another one. But fully opening the floodgates? I don't think the root server operators would be happy about the load.
> I wonder why so many folks care about performance.

Its been shown repeatedly that application performance dramatically moves the needle on retention, eg [1].

Personally I care about it because using slow software makes me feel like I'm ill. And developing slow software makes me feel like I'm bad at my job.

Your users have spent thousands of dollars buying hardware that can run billions of operations per second. They do that in order to run your software fast. (If they didn't care about performance, they'd be using old hardware.)

Your users didn't spend thousands of dollars buying super fast hardware just to get you off the hook for doing good engineering. Slow software is a sign of sloppy craftsmanship. I hate it.

UML is not dead, I use UML diagramming all the time. As with anything, you want to be judicious in your use of it.

Edit: shoutout to https://plantuml.com/ for making me the coolest kid on any new team.
UML statecharts are great, but I’ve not yet used them end-to-end and I’m not mourning the passing of UML-driven OO methodologies.
I expect opposition when discussing political topics.

I wrote this disclaimer because I was surprised to find harassment for such a harmless topic as Python's type hinting. I'm surprised dang never stepped in. The flamewar went for a surreal nesting depth, and you know what goes on at that level -- nobody cares what the initial disagreement was, we were arguing about the meaning of the word "is" at that point.
That's the reason there's now a major push in a lot of places to replace those with heat pumps...
France had Minitel, so didn't need computers.
It is pretty common practice for companies to offer this for layoffs, period.

The discussion can start from the point of view of wanting the laid off employees to have a soft landing, and the lawyers push for especially non-disparagement and tightening up NDA.
Funny, I guess this is a personality thing. There is no amount of money you could pay me to work somebody else’s todo list without the autonomy to scratch my own itches or shape my own work’s direction.
According to their failures in markets where they compete with other products.

I don't know about this chip. Possibly this time it'll be different, unlike all the previous times it would be different but wasn't. I don't think that's been established yet though. And certainly it's not for CPU cores or even more general purpose GPUs.
Oh yes, SLS Linux, always installed from a big stack of floppies. Had almost forgotten! ("Soft Landing Systems".)

Then Slackware came out on CD!
There is a “purr center” in the lateral hypothalamic region of cats that was mapped out by electrical stimulation in the late 1940s by Dr. Frederic Andrew Gibbs and his spouse Erna L. Gibbs. Fred was a famous EEG expert.

They published their “purr center” work in Journal of Neurophysiology long before a pleasure center was “officially” discovered by James Olds and Peter Milner in the 1950s in studies of rats.

I cannot find the citation in PubMed but I recall the year was circa 1948.

I think the issue is memory safety is reachable. Correctness is either extremely hard (proof program satisfied specifications) to nigh impossible (make sure all icon pointy things are aligned).
improving search is not the main goal, rather it's keeping an interface that can still plausibly be described as "search" while allowing for the most ad impressions and clicks
To me, having to get my "house in order" without asking for it is basically non-consensual changes by the developer, and I think that is abusive.

With humans, my response to abuse is distancing myself from the source of the abuse, and with technologies it is no different.

Python is very popular, and I'm actually learning it right now, but I would not write anything important in it for another 20 years, since they just did ANOTHER breaking change in a minor version release.
This is one of several places. Some others are.

You don't know how much memory an object of a given type takes to instantiate. This makes object allocation slower. This also means that you can't allocate a Vector<T> inline. It has to be a vector of pointers.

You don't know what fields a type has. This makes GC scanning more expensive.

You can't optimize the layout of a type. If you know an object doesn't have subtypes, you can move it's fields around to reduce padding. If you want to be able to look up fields quickly, you need to put all the fields of the supertype first in memory which will increase the size of your objects.

There is no discord, everybody is happy.
I'm not who you replied to, but I do care, I don't want to be made to feel stupid, I don't want to think that people are stupid, I want things to be presented as they are even if not immediately understands them.

In the UK we see this with nonsense talk of 'the [energy] price cap' being some £ figure per year - when it's not, it's a £/kWh cap, but the media can't cope with that, we're stuck with what it means for 'the average household'. Even comparison sites refuse to compare what you actually pay, £/day and £/kWh, and instead insist on asking you about number of bedrooms etc.

I'm sick of everything being dumbed down.
You really think a company would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?
