"Though, the [Golden Gate and SF—Oakland Bay] bridges have contributed to their economic and social growth the neighboring communities resent becoming known as San Francisco’s bedrooms. Oakland which is California’s third largest city is in the same unfavorable position as New York City's Brooklyn. Industries and assembly plants have turned Oakland into a Western Detroit. Its outstanding symbol of activity is the Latham Square Building, headquarters for Henry Kaiser’s vast industrial empire. This city has the largest Negro population on the Pacific Coast."

"San Francisco however, is fast becoming the focal point of the Negroes’ future. Before World War II this city had fewer than 5,000 Negroes. High war wages attracted these people from all over the country to this boom town. More than 45,000 Negroes are squeezed into two areas of, San Francisco today, with an estimated thirty-five percent unemployed." (1954)

What the heck, I've never seen this. Hey ISVs, if you see this conversation engage me to consult on how to make your installers not drive people like us up the wall! ;)
The paper itself is interesting. By in large the study consisted of people who already had high cholesterol (to the level their doctor would likely recommend putting them on a statin) and eat above the recommended level (from the american heart association) of saturated fat and a fair amount of dietary cholesterol.

They don't appear to say how they deal controlling for other factors that raise ones cholesterol.

Reading through the paper I find it hard to see signal among so much noise. And, it looks like the data shows the more people increased dietary cholesterol the more their cholesterol levels increased.

It makes me wonder how they draw their conclusions. Reading the paper and looking at their data doesn't give me confidence in their conclusions.
> with very little to show for.

The billions of people whose food and personal safety rely on data from weather satellites should at least count a bit above "very little".

So do the people like me who can't use a paper map to save their lives, and for which GNSS has been a life-changer in their ordinary life.
To expand, they get their internet from ground stations. If they had just one or two ground stations, like in CA and TX, then everyone would be depending on the laser network and the entire operation would be slow. So they can't sell to a lot of people that would just be getting laser coverage.

In the simulation you can see very common helper deps do receive quite a disproportionate amount of funding relative to the effort to maintain though. For example, `rimraf` (~400 LOC), `del` (~100 LOC), `cross-env` (this one is archived) all receive a ton of funding, whereas major projects like `electron` get a small amount since it's not used as often even though it would be much more impactful if it were to fall into disrepair.

Lately I did a burst of discovery around Japanese electronic music of the 1970s and 1980s such as Yellow Magic Orchestra, Isao Tomita and that in turn turned me on to the composer Claude Debussy.
We've been looking at a few for what I thought "basic" AI data prep tasks like scraping with backfill & periodic refreshes (basically a bunch of REST queries with care not to overwhelm the targets; 2000's era backpressure good citizen stuff), and found that all the scheduling primitives ended up being half-baked from a data orchestration perspective. That's even before we get into periodic rescoring for the actual AI parts. So these ended up feeling like generic manual task/orchestration tools, which there are simpler + more powerful technologies. We did the same exercise 2-3 years ago, and surprisingly, not much change in core scheduler interfaces here from this perspective.

Curious if there are positive experiences with any tools here from a data orchestration perspective, esp OSS?
They bought webtv, didn't they? Similarly, Microsoft was not only too early on tablet computing, but also never quite got it right.
Perhaps, but we not unreasonably see it as behaviour where a man was clearly taking advantage of his position of wealth and power over someone of an impressionable age who's unlikely to be in a position to give meaningfully informed consent. At any rate the "sick old man" accusation made by heckler was pretty well justified on its own terms, even if choosing that exact moment to make it did little to help the cause.

There are a ton of very active programming related channels, mostly for open source projects. It's quickly replacing freenode as the place to go to chat about projects (love it or hate it). In fact, it's markdown support for code blocks is unmatched (imo and compared to Slack/Teams/etc) and is actually very nice to use as a place to discuss programming.

I was talking with some friends about how the gaming community of today has no idea what Teamspeak, Ventrilo or Mumble are. What does Discord do that these others never did well?

Screen share, video conference, filesharing (TS had a primitive fileserver), and rich text/emoji, persistent chat, and a better UI for moving from server to server.

The mumble client already supports using certs for identity. I think if Mumble could make multi-server browsing easier and have screenshare/videoshare, that would be enough for many people to swing back to a decentralized tool.

After screenshare and server browsing, having "Mumble as a Service" to spin up a new server instantly ala Discord would be the killer migration feature to compete.

I wonder if any Mumble developers think about pivoting to a more direct competition with Discord? Or if any people with videoconference software dev experience would know where to start on Mumble?

Depending on your math background you might need to bone up on some stuff. A certain amount of Calculus knowledge helps, and likewise for Linear Algebra. It probably wouldn't hurt to have some Probability theory as well.
This seems like it ought to be easy to work around. Like, verify a base name, and then give them a little space afterwards where they can add something. The displayed name is the combination of the two. They can even make it a different color to emphasize the announced thing.

Which is funny, because OOP should be[1] about the in-between of the objects: the messages[2]. Not about the objects themselves or the classes and GOF design patterns.

With Common Lisp you get generic functions and design your classes around those.

[1] “OOP to me means only messaging, local retention and protection and hiding of state-process, and extreme late-binding of all things. It can be done in Smalltalk and in LISP. There are possibly other systems in which this is possible, but I'm not aware of them.” - Alan Kay (http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~ram/pub/pub_jf47ht81Ht/doc_kay...)

modules communicate rather than what their internal properties and
behaviors should be.” - Alan Kay (https://wiki.c2.com/?AlanKayOnMessaging)

Can confirm it would hit the corner if you waited long enough. I saw it happen twice, and a third time where it was like two or three pixels off from hitting right in the corner.

I'm fairly sure (based on observation/recollection) the logo was placed randomly with a random vector, and when it contacted the wall it's vector was reflected across the normal at that point (eg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Reflection_angles.sv...). I'm not sure that every configuration would reach the corner, but many would.
That seems like a ridiculous thing to say. That said, I actually came to the comments to wonder just how much total effort would have gone into this from proposal, through approval and sign-offs by multiple technical and non-technical teams, before finally getting through to production. Anyone have an educated guess? I’m really curious even though I don’t believe it should sway opinion on whether to do it or not. The value is spread across employee morale and however many millions of users have their day brightened a little.
I find the lack of spam filtering tools Twitter provides us to be appalling. "vitalik.eth 50,000 Ethereum give away" is a well known example that keeps appearing from new accounts. I should be able to set filter. Right now I can only hide all content from the account, which keeps changing.
Well, its about time America stepped up with its own anti-trust laws as well. EU has ‘increasingly arcane’ antitrust anti tech monopoly laws because its a pioneer here and US is doing exactly jack to rein in the big tech. I mean why should they, right? Their companies going out in the world conquering new markets and raking in revenues like never before while uncle sam has to kick back his feet and wait for his to cut roll in. Not to mention all that sweet sweet consumer data and spying benefits. EU is not at fault here.
It’s very good. Bar the first season and last … 3?

Different take entirely. For those unaware the UK version is so cynical and on occasion even dark (and i love it for that) and in contrast the US version is more light hearted and succeeds completely on those terms.

> Then the president began a legal fight for the election. Countless numbers of his supporters have rallied around him, with 70% of Republicans suspecting fraud. But many who claimed to support the President were more than happy to roll over and hand the presidency to Biden without a fight. Since election night, many prominent Republicans have hesitated to support the president. Senator Mitt Romney and former President George W. Bush have even called on Trump to concede the election. Many more, in their silence, have failed to give the President their support in his hour of greatest need.
Ah, I understand now. I believe there are enough private GPU owners around to sustain and scale rentaflop for many years to come. For instance, did you know there were around 10 million GPUs mining the Ethereum cryptocurrency at its peak? Our current prices allow our hosts to earn ~10x what crypto mining pays whenever they're processing rendering tasks for rentaflop. There are millions more GPUs owned by gamers, AI hobbyists, businesses, etc. that we hope to leverage to make 3D rendering more accessible to artists. If we manage to attract even a tiny fraction of these, we stand a chance at becoming the fastest and most affordable render farm on the planet.
Because it is expensive to copy a large container? Which is why you want immutable data structures, in which case copying is superfluous. So the problem with Python is not the aliasing in assignment, rather it is the mutability of the objects that could create unpleasant surprises.

Recently I intentionally got my Twitter account locked (specifically via a tweet insulting Trump Jr. which had gotten my friend's account locked when he posted it originally in response to Trump Jr.) so that I could keep my page (with links to my website and current social media accounts elsewhere) up while denying myself the temptation to ever participate in Twitter again.

My mental health has skyrocketed and I have no regrets. If I need to read anything on Twitter I use Nitter or view Twitter through Brave with a custom ViolentMonkey filter to avoid that stupid "log in" pop-up.
Who cares? The right thing to do doesn't rely on what others may hypothetically do. Acting in good faith consistently in life can pay off multiple times over if you build up a reputation for it. And from a non-selfish angle, it's the moral choice to make.

Now the poster has the opportunity to work for that company again, which would have probably been burned if they fought to keep the money accidentally paid to them.
In tech, Indians and East Asians are also not considered a minority.
We don't need a drawn out hypothetical to explain what we're seeing with the American right. And that's an attempt to overturn an election through force on 1/6 which lead to deaths of some of the participants, an increase in the number of election deniers in the party, as well as an attempt to overturn democracy by the SCOTUS ruling on Moore v. Harper. Conservatives can't get upset that people are judging them by the things they consistently say, do and support.

> I'm almost 100% positive that Microsoft uses HAProxy (open source or commercial license I couldn't tell you) to power App Services on Azure.

I think you'll find they're using ARR and not HAProxy for the "batteries included" load balancer. You can tell this from the cookie names "ARRAffinity" and "ARRAffinitySameSite".
> For better or worse, each country’s government has to approve the use of any particular frequency, as well as things like transmission power.

I think it’s for the worse if governments disapprove the use of Starlink. Starlink should at least be allowed to send out an SOS message. It could save a life out on the frontier.
For what it's worth, for me 'getting our shit together' is shorthand for availability of birth control and improving availability of mass education, especially for women. These are the things that have concretely driven reduction in population growth.

This is broadly correct but specifically incorrect: cost of sales includes ex. salaries and capital investments and cost of goods sold includes the literal cost of the raw materials for a good

It's quite jarring to see someone jump in with another misunderstanding, derailing the correction, especially given this is a "hoofbeats, think horses, not zebras" situation. Any argument they're kinda sorta the same thing or it's ambiguous, they could be the same thing, leaves open the Q of how exactly Xiaomi can possibly fund itself if 83% of it's costs are raw materials
First of all, you would need a buffer :) Just joking, I would try to check out the source code and build it under 64bit arch you have. There might be some issues on the way and start to fix them could be the first step.
Being envious of something doesn't make it cheaper.

The IRS is pretty chill if you aren't purposely trying to evade taxes.

As a college student working multiple jobs, I had complicated taxes for a bit. Years later, the IRS sent me a letter that said "you forgot to declare this W2, so you owe us $270". I get nervous about phone calls and couldn't find a web portal to pay it, so I uh, "put it off" for a while. I never actually got in contact with the IRS. They just sent me a letter the next two years saying they took my state tax refund to pay it off and now it's done. I think I spent a couple bucks on interest over the course of multiple years.

People have this weird concept that the IRS will do no knock raids on normal average americans for simple mixups. This perception is mostly driven by people who are ideologically against taxes entirely. Instead, the IRS is predominantly average people with accounting experience who are used to getting simple money mistakes solved. They also don't want to take you to court because they don't have enough money in their budget to take everyone they could to court.
Maybe that's why they're getting it months before anyone else :)

In this case no, but the question remains to the GP as to whether having the police remove the man from the crowd would have been justifiable if it were a cemetery.
(To be clear, I don't especially have a problem with the police taking Prince Andrew's heckler away, if nothing else for his own safety given members of the public were also manhandling him. I do have an issue with him being arrested and expected to face court.)
I'm already coming across more and more communities who say "For more information/to download the example files/to see our FAQ just join our Discord!", which is an immediate turnoff. I'm not going to "join a discord" just to see an FAQ or download some prerelease build or something else.

Now even entire communities are going to move onto Discord and become completely unreachable for people like me who don't want to "join the community" just to read one post that one person wrote one time.
They're testing out the new UI in the other language Wikipedias. It adds a nice collapsible topic structure to the sidebar and sets a text width limit, but hides the available languages for the article behind a button on the header. This makes it harder to tell whether the article is available in specific languages, and to switch the language. It's a bit unwieldy as of now, as you now have to jump to the top of the page and click the "languages" button just to check if the article is available in your desired language, but they are showing some effort. They plan to make the header sticky and add direct links to the user's most frequently used languages. I just hope a sticky header doesn't take away much of the space dedicated to the page's content.

Here's a link to the ideas page discussing the change:
