I had the honor and pleasure to meet a childhood nerd-hero (the author, Jim Butterfield) at a Commodore retro gathering/convention in Louisville, KY sometime in the 2000's,so awesome book, add sentiment :'(
I don't agree with this at all. What makes one set of frequency changes over a wire a website and another a voice call? A big pile of socially constructed concepts, from written language to Unicode to TCP and HTML. The electrical impulses are physically real; the website is a construct and makes sense only in the context of society.
We have systems log stuff when there's less at stake. You'd have to really go out of your way to make this an unsolvable mystery murder.
People already have plenty of chances to slack off at offices. This is a complete non-argument.
Hard disagree.

Fitness and distance aside - it's hot out there y'all. The first world/western world is wholly and fully conditioned to not sweating during the day. There is absolutely zero chance we convince everyone to start riding bikes (with helmets!) in 80+ (27C) degree weather.
> You [Canadians] don't have the highly polarized politics they've got in the US.

Yet?
A motorcycle is actually harder to get a license for than a car is up here in Canada...
I've kind of found the opposite. I'm at a bigger / reasonable well-known tech company now (FAANG types would probably call it a 'tier 2 company', and there are rigorous standards for proving your worth at promotion time.

It's a huge change from my 25 years in industry at 'smaller' / less prestigious companies where most promotions happened because it's the only way my boss could get me a 5% instead of 4% raise, or whatever. Or in other companies where they gave you a promotion INSTEAD of a raise. In all my previous companies, it happened just because somebody gave it to you, not because you met any real standard.
Cycling in the winter is fine, actually. Bikes cope with snow and ice better than cars, and the physical exertion keeps you warmer than you would be on foot.
I put an AirTag inside the little pouch/sleeve on the inside of my wallet (behind the cards).

It was a little awkward at first to get used to my wallet not sitting as flat anymore but I got over it. Luckily, I’m not a person who stores months worth of receipts and 20 cards in my wallet like my father, so there’s plenty of space.

It’s definitely come in handy a few times!
Ask HN: Have You Upgraded to iOS 16?
Does anyone know how stable the recent beta builds of iOS 16 were? These are usually a pretty good predictor of whether there will be issues with the public release.

Also, what are some favorite features? I don't expect to care much about the lock screen stuff, and until the update is widely adopted the Messages editing capability won't matter much. Is there much to be excited about?
Platform moderation is complex, but this being some new hypothetical vulnerability to remove any website from existence is simply not true. Are you suggesting we make it illegal for Cloudflare to do this?

Not in summer either. Nobody wants to show up to their destination a sweaty mess.
All three of fat, old, and disabled can use bikes. Adapted to their condition, of course; tricycle-type configurations are often a good adaptation in cases like that.
Just another chapter of the whole automation shtick.

> I don't think there's been any industry that's been ended by AI yet, and yet people are strangely confident that art is going to be the first.

Any time now.

Banks which collect KYC and respond to criminal probes. Those that don’t absolutely get sanctioned.
I've seen enough of my friends get seriously injured on their bikes by vehicles. No thanks. I'm not riding my bike again on streets until my city starts protecting cyclists. (I'm in the US)
That one, yes. But Zeihan's 2014 book predicted that Russia would invade Ukraine by the end of 2021. Missed it by two months.
I am not saying all DEs want to do ML, however to many it is advertised as a step towards good ML jobs and that is mostly incorrect.
Absolutely still playing everyday!
And, then I play Pentanome right after that, which is a

Six letters may or may not be more difficult, which is yet another discussion.

Yes, when you pay off a car loan the bank closes the account and your available credit line goes down as well. So your drop in credit age and credit line makes your credit score to go down.
Let’s say three usecases:

1. To Union them into multiple views

2. To instantiate individual views per query, to reuse in other queries

3. To return to client directly

I don’t see how this expansion will help you, but go wild. The problem remains that you can’t separate the logic of the view from the schema it’s acting upon
Same here. Software dev with an MFA in Studio Art. Generative Art was a topic 20 years ago in school and my feeling it was politely tolerated as conceptual, but not aesthetic. The difference now is that the models and algorithms and amount of data actually produce decent results. GPT-3 writing as opposed to the markov chain experimental writing decades ago is profound. Image creation even more so.

I see exactly this backlash in most art schools until eveything is so mingled a new generation just doesn't care.
As a hobbyist game developer, 2022 is the year my creativity can finally fully unleashed.

Prototyping games is getting so much better, this will really help indies game studies quite a bit.

Will those AI generated assets replace hand crafted ones? Heck no!

Have you ever tried doing AI art?

What gets posted on social media are the few successful experiments. Most AI generated stuff is absolute crap. Getting anything useful out of it requires lot's of trial an error and magical incantations.

Now yes, you can quickly make generic background #20233 with it or simply something weird that would fit into some bad dream. If you need something specific and coherent though? Yeah, this will be very hard.

Here is how to make concept art with stable-diffusion:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rS2kNvbIL5Q

Look how many iteration that requires. How it requires finding the proper real word assets for img2img techniques. How is still requires some serious Photoshop skill to put everything together.

AI helps us build more higher level tools for creating art but the idea that it is anywhere close to creating art itself is silly. We have not made any progress in creating general artificial intelligence at all.

The main progress we see is that AI-tech is that it is becoming available for the masses, which is awesome.
Sounds like cars should be the exception rather than the norm.
253W is only 2 amps in the US, thats like 10-20% of a breaker’s capacity
> The problem being solved by these decisions is that AI art is a visible threat to the livelihoods of the people the site is designed to support and uplift.

That's not a solvable problem. Art will be made by computers, it's inevitable. Eventually it will get good enough to be indistinguishable from human made art. It's already good enough that a human can use the AI to get 90% of the way there and then finish it themselves.

> Art sites have already had rate limits for years.

Clearly not good enough if every one of them is saying some variation on "our site is getting flooded with AI art"

> These communities are explicitly saying "no" to this disruptive technology. If you want to go make a new gallery site for showing off your prompt engineering that's your own lookout, have fun trying to build a community and figure out how to keep the site funded. But you can't come spam our existing communities of people who've dedicated decades to their craft with the messy, incoherent results of the whole six months you've spent learning to be a "prompt engineer".

I agree, people shouldn't be spamming crap directly from the AI. But good luck keeping out the people who tweak the AI generated art to make it look pretty good. A smart site would embrace this kind of art, perhaps make a new category for it. But trying to ban it from the community is a lost cause.
I used to care for a man with quadriplegia as a care assistant for about a year. It made me realize a lot of things with disability parking.

Everything took 5x as long, handicap spots were hard to find, and you can forget taking a train if you want to do anything else that day.

The wheelchair van was his lifeline to the rest of the world.

So from that, I'm personally against banning cars in city centers for that reason.

It wouldn't be too difficult to restrict roads to handicap placard drivers and a limited number of commercial vehicles. You'd just need a lot of cops and parking enforcers (not bad for job creation!)

And, while I'm no road engineer, I imagine the results would be a large drop in car traffic, and very little infra to build to make it happen.

You can even just block off certain roads and turn them into pedestrian only spaces.
I would argue that various forms of cycles (going well beyond the UCI definition of a bicycle, but still using common components powered primarily by a human) are much more compatible with disabilities than cars are. I've seen both double-arm and double-leg amputees cycling, among others.
They also need to handle a lot of backwards compatibility as well as gracefully handling syntax errors
I wonder how many G's the capsule pulled during this maneuver. It should have been pulling about 3 G's just prior. As I understand it, launch abort survivability is the main driver of the physical fitness requirements for these passenger flights.

Obligatory XKCD: https://what-if.xkcd.com/imgs/a/116/directions.png
As an Android user, it used to be a fun party trick at the bar, to show everyone the alert on my phone from dark sky that it was going to start raining in X minutes or that it was going to stop raining in Y minutes and then everyone checking later and it being basically down to the second accurate.

As a former paid user of Dark Sky that lost that information when Apple bought them I feel no sympathy for iOS users that Dark Sky has gone to crap

I am sad such an amazing tool for the world was destroyed by a corporation trying to deprive another corporation so they could maybe make a little more money.
> This sounds like a very American answer. Have you been to such an event in any other place, like Europe?

Of course, and I've been to the mecca of public transit, Japan!

And guess what -- outside of the super-dense cities, most Japanese people drive cars. I spent some time in a Japanese city about as dense as a California suburb. Two train stations in the entire city. A car or two in every driveway. I've also been to smaller cities in various European countries and it's the same story.

People need to stop pretending that the world looks like Copenhagen or Tokyo. In reality, most of the world is not dense.
University of California, San Francisco | Senior Software Engineer | Remote or San Francisco | full time

(from the JD)
The Data Science CoLab is seeking front-end, back-end, and full-stack software engineers to help build UCSF's Data Library. You’ll work as part of a small, cross-functional team of engineers, data scientists, and biologists to develop a platform that stores and analyzes cutting-edge biological data from UCSF researchers.

In this position, you will architect, build, and deploy an open-source database system designed to accommodate large, diverse biological data types from a wide variety of technologies. The team also focuses on challenges in visualization and analysis of this complex data, the integration of multi-modal data, and building an interface that is accessible for biologists. You will be working with top UCSF researchers, learning novel biology as it’s discovered, and making an impact on the direction and discovery in the immunology and cancer fields. You will have freedom to innovate in this space with the tools and infrastructure you will build that can change the way we do systems biology.
(end JD blurb)

This is a US remote-friendly position (all of the current software engineers are remote), but you could also work out of the UCSF Parnassus Campus if you are in San Francisco and prefer that. We meet up several times a year in SF to plan work, interact with our users, and get to know each other.

Our stack is Ruby (main services), Python (Airflow), and TypeScript / JavaScript / React on the front-end. We run Docker + Docker Swarm on our own VMs.

Process-wise, no leetcode or take-home projects. Instead, plan on two rounds of interviews to determine fit and coding ability.

That's exactly right. BNPLs generally charge more than credit card acquirers do, something in the 3-4% range, but the breakdown of these numbers tend to be closely guarded and that reflects outside estimates. One has to imagine Apple thinks they can command a premium here too.

With respect to cards: cards have a number of advantages for both merchants and customers. Cash is not free to handle and carries risk (theft, etc) and it's really slow. Credit card buyers tend to have larger average ticket sizes (20% larger was the last one I saw) and card buyers have more confidence buying from smaller shops knowing that they can always charge back the merchant if something goes terribly wrong. In a real way chargebacks are a big part of how we got e-commerce.

Merchant agreements generally precluded credit surcharges but they always allowed cash discounts. This is commonly seen at US gas stations to this day. They also prohibited credit card minimum purchase amounts. To my knowledge both of these are no longer true.

Shops aren't putting up with cards so much as embracing them because that's how their customers want to pay, and they don't want to miss out on a sale.
When digital effects and CGI began to replace stop-motion monster effects in movies, the stop motion artists screamed that art made on a computer was not art, and that their industry would be lost.

Nowadays we know better, not only is digital art accepted everywhere on earth, it's almost expected, and as for the stop-motion folks, they're still in business! Movies still come out every year, some of them with huge budgets (like Coraline) that use stop-motion because it has a certain look and feel that is all its own. AI art will only get better, but so will the ways we use it, and the people who are actually ARTISTS will be the furthest ahead, and leading the way.
Here in Boston I've had several coworkers who consistently commuted by bike even when it was pouring out. They just wore rain suits, had waterproof panniers, and presumably weren't trying to maintain a 20 mph pace.

I do a lot of high school senior photography. It's hard to talk about this without sounding crude as a guy but something that I've noticed that contrasts with when I graduated high school (2006) is just how many girls have huge breasts. I think there were 2 girls in my grade that were skinny and had what would be called "large" breasts. Most other skinny girls had the standard A or B cups.

Now a very large portion have what must be D cups. I've tried to look up studies but I couldn't find any that controlled for weight.

This was also the first year I had not one, but two, morbidly obese girls. One was so large I ran out of poses pretty much right away as she couldn't clasp her hands together behind her back, couldn't do the same near her waist in front, and she couldn't even sit down on the ground - only kneel. She told me she wanted to be a lawyer. I find it incredibly sad that you could be that large already at that age. I can only imagine how difficult it would make life.
We have no idea as to the reliability of the system. We don't know how many false positives were found. We don't know if these were just hand selected from date/time/location.
Software development is not a regulated field like civil or mechanical engineering. The term "Senior" is complete BS. I prefer SDE I, II, etc
The Java runtime provides runtime type information for all types, and extensive reflection is available, including for example invoking arbitrary code. Very dynamic and a significant problem for static analysis, optimisation and security.
It could be that the people do care about the values listed, but don't know an effective way to guarantee them, and that existing diversity statements are a stopgap measure until something better is figured out.

But no, let's jump directly to "Conclusion: By and large, they don’t care about diversity. They’re just lying, in a really transparent way, because they think it gives them a patina of legal legitimacy."

Or... perhaps don't ascribe to malice that which may be adequately explained by incompetence.
I don't think OP was implying that Rust was a requirement, just what was actually used in this case. And, indeed, OP gives some reasons that Rust might be preferable:

> And when I say fast, I mean that I have tried so hard to find some static file server that could beat what my site does. I tried really hard. I compared my site to Nginx, openresty, tengine, Apache, Go's standard library, Warp in Rust, Axum in Rust, and finally a Go standard library HTTP server that had the site data compiled into ram. None of them were faster, save the precompiled Go binary (which was like 200 MB and not viable for my needs). It was hilarious. I have accidentally created something so efficient that it's hard to really express how fast it is.
Umm no they’re not. And the ones that are just have the opposite problem half the year. Very few cities are in a climate where all but the most hardcore people will want to bike more than half the time.

Go down the list of American cities by population. NYC, Chicago, Philly, etc. Not biking in the cold months. Megacities in Texas, Cali, Florida, AZ: not biking in hot months.

This might work for Honolulu or San Diego and that’s about it, even if you completely disregard the 50% of the population that couldn’t ride a bike in any weather due to being old, injured, obese, etc.

It’s preposterous to think this is an actual solution.

Getting rid of cars necessitates some other motorized form of transport from which you can’t easily fall and get injured.
A system that requires nearly everyone to drive cars is not compatible with disabilities. If fewer people drive, it frees up road space for people who actually need to drive, as opposed to people who drive because it's the easiest way to get around. Also note that cars are often not a good fit for many kinds of disabilities. Public transit works much better with only minor modifications.
How wide spread is this requirement?

I've never heard about it before.

>schools are requiring “Diversity Statements” as a condition for new hires

Is this like when you do a self performance review and you just throw in a bunch of common phrases / text?
> I will not go to a mall that has 6 shootings a year.

Agreed, a mall needs to be up around 12 shootings a year to even be considered these days.
My brother-in-law works for the state of IL. When COVID hit, his department went 'remote'. According to him, while 'remote', anyone without a computer did not have to do anything, but was still paid. Suddenly, lots of people "didn't have a computer".
Great solutions don't solve problems for everybody. They solve them for a critical mass.

Lots of people are unable to drive for totally valid reasons. Yet we don't throw away cars because only like 75% of the population can drive.

I think things will categorically change about how we define art in the next little while. We may see an increase of parasocial-style livestream art drawing, so the illustrator isn't just an illustrator but specifically a personality attached (an exaggeration of the current artist-art relationship commonly known today). We may also determine AI-generated art is simply in another category, like photography, CGI, digital, and traditional portraits are all considered different categories. I can imagine human-generated novels and AI-generated novels are neatly separated, with associated scandals if a human attempts to pass an AI-generated novel as their own creation (scandals already currently exists for humans who eg. a romance writer recently got in trouble for lifting paragraphs from fanfic they didn't write into their original fiction).

There's nothing to say that creativity will die. We invented typewriters, but calligraphy is still an art whose pens and inks are beloved interests. We invented the digital screen and the paper machines, but handmade paper and hand-stitched book binding is still an artist's pursuit.
In my experience, factory-installed headlights are rarely problematic. The primary offenders here seem to be after-market headlight additions. People purchase and install whatever their local auto parts store has that is bigger and brighter, and rarely take the time to properly align the headlights after the upgrade. This results in light being thrown much farther and wider than it ought to be.
I see it as a win-win. Shitty worthless assignments don't waste your time, so you can do something you're interested in.
It's have been trying out doing cargo bike pick up for one of my kids from school and I agree.

For most people, having someone pass you with less than foot clearance while speeding is the end of the experiment.

That said, parking protected bike lanes are a huge boon to bike use. Push for them in your town and people will use the bike lane. There's a group of highschool kids who are doing a bike pool on my morning ride who have showed up now that there is a protected bike lane.

The hood height thing is honestly insane. I am over 6 feet high and cannot see over them while standing let alone driving or biking. They seem actually designed as a deniable way to hurt people.

The vast majority, by a long shot.
