> What exactly does posting race and gender data accomplish exactly, specifically?

It enables third parties to calculate ESG scores more easily using data that would otherwise have to be voluntarily relinquished. The S in ESG stands for compliance with the woke social justice agenda. ESG essentially means compliance with the agenda of the powers creating the score, so coal and weapons manufactorers have a high score.

The companies can be financially pressured by pension and index funds that illegally use cartel behavior to push the incredibly unpopular ESG. Expect those pension funds assets to trend towards negative real returns as companies start prioritizing politics over sensible business decisions. E.g. blackrock, vanguard, most state and federal pension funds.

I'm using PlatformIO now, but in my experience the installation experience is hit and miss, due to lack of feedback while downloading and installing things. It just hangs, and you don't know if it failed.

A workaround is to not follow their suggestion to install from the VS Code plugin and install the command line tools instead.

Also, serial monitoring and plotting isn't very good. I ended up writing my own: https://serialviz.skybrian.com/

That said, package management is more sane. Having a platformio.ini file that you can check in helps with reproducibility.

> Well, there's an Arduino FPGA board : the MKR Vidor 4000

It's an Arduino with an FPGA on it, yes. But the FPGA is practically a hood ornament: there is no support whatsoever for building gateware in the Arduino IDE, only for using a set of prebuilt demonstration bitstreams, and what little documentation Arduino has provided on using the FPGA (e.g. https://docs.arduino.cc/tutorials/mkr-vidor-4000/vidor-quart...) is extremely vague and is missing a lot of critical information.

(Additionally, some of the product specifications for the board are highly misleading -- for example, some pages refer to the edge connector as "mini PCI Express" and suggest that it can be used "to creat [sic] your own PCI interfaces", but the FPGA on the board does not support PCIe.)

You're much better off with a dedicated FPGA development board. Arduino hasn't brought anything useful to the table here.

> IOW, use the AppleTV (or Roku, or whatever) regardless just for the better experience.

I've never used AppleTV. Does it come with ads and a bunch of data collection too? Roku collects massive amounts of data and has ads. For example:

"Roughly twice per second, a Roku TV captures video “snapshots” in 4K resolution. These snapshots are scanned through a database of content and ads, which allows the exposure to be matched to what is airing. For example, if a streamer is watching an NFL football game and sees an ad for a hard seltzer, Roku’s ACR will know that the ad has appeared on the TV being watched at that time. In this way, the content on screen is automatically recognized, as the technology’s name indicates. The data then is paired with user profile data to link the account watching with the content they’re watching." (https://advertising.roku.com/resources/blog/insights-analysi...)
That's not correct. Version 1 of their system was, they quickly fixed it to the chagrin of many Linux desktop users (who just want to play and watch the movies they paid for on the hardware they own).

What is now called and taught as the history of philosophy is not very useful because it's not the actual history of philosophy, academic or otherwise. You learn mostly what little of say, 19th century philosophy we now have respect for regardless of whether that century even knew that thinker was alive. The context, mostly of "greats" that we now think are horse dung, is never given. Knowing how thinkers (and the crowds that love them) went badly wrong would be useful, but is rarely taught. Both the now-highly thought of and then-highly-thought-of are worth some attention.

Nice, yeah we had one customer using Cloud Build, and in their case their native amd64 builds dropped from around 12 minutes to 1-2 minutes on Depot builders. Surprisingly to us, it was even faster to push from Depot to Artifact Registry than from Cloud Build directly, definitely an odd networking quirk.

arm64 builds should even be a more dramatic change, they should drop to at least as fast as your current amd64 builds.

Japanese people could ask the same question about why English continues to have uppercase and lowercase letters.

Actually when you look at the use of English in Japanese media, you’ll quickly notice a lot of unnatural-looking overuse of uppercase. That’s because to them it feels natural to use uppercase the same way they use katakana.

If you are a nobody and just starting out, I suggest look at other similar companies and get inspiration from their TOS etc. For example, a lot of B2B SAAS companies have similar DPA (Data Process agreements) and you can copy from a similar company and tweak. This may be unpopular opinion though but I think it is good enough IF you don't want to spend money and you are just starting out (risk of anyone caring is almost 0). Obviously don't lie but you ca use similar sections. For example, here is hubspot's DPA:

https://legal.hubspot.com/dpa

For the section "sub-processors", replace it with the ones you use for your startup and keep similar wording as needed.

Once you are up and running and have real customers with money coming in, get a lawyer to review and edit as needed.

Don’t mistake this for victory. Google’s standard playbook when forcing things people don’t like is to spread the action out over a longer timeframe, exhausting the media and keeping the final blow mostly out of the news, and exhausting our individual outrage and will to keep fighting. It works every time, and it’ll work again if we become complacent again. Until and unless Google meaningfully commits to never neuter ad blockers, it’s still critical and urgent that we switch to Firefox.

Isn't this achieved from something like the CA law proposed but without demographic data?

At a past job, they anonymized company survey data at various levels including not sharing demo breakdowns in data if a person was on a team with fewer than four members or something like that. I'd be open to a law like the one in CA with the stipulation that demo breakdown data won't be shared if it represents two or fewer employees in a group.

Market transparency is good and can be achieved to some extent without knowing an employee's exact salary.

I'll add that I've also worked with envious people who would potentially treat their coworkers in a hostile manner if they perceive some unfair imbalance in their pay, rather than seeking a new job or taking it out on an employer. For some, there is a crabs-in-a-bucket mentality.

I am assuming you are talking about Kavanaugh?

>Why?

Because it looked like a political hit.

- She couldn't remember which party it happened at

- She couldn't remember what year it even happened

- She told nobody until 2012 and even then she didn't mention Kavanaugh

- Multiple people she described as her friends denied they knew anything of this event including one who was allegedly at the party

- She lied to the Washington Post when she said she was frustrated that in 2016 she heard that Trump would potentially nominate Kavanaugh. She couldn't have been frustrated in 2016 since Kavanaugh didn't have his name put out until 2017.

- Her parents and siblings would not sign a document in support of her statement. Her family in law did though.

I understand you may have issues after a traumatic event, which can cause you to forget or misremember, but none of this is adding up to me.

Just to be clear, I am not denying she was assaulted or even that Kavanaugh may have been the assailant. I just don't think the testimony was credible and she didn't provide any evidence or have anybody who knew her back then back her up.

>Did you not watch the confirmation hearings?

Yes. Which thing do you think Kavanaugh did of my list? There was 1 person making an accusation, there was some stupid teenage stuff with some drinking, he didn't lie (to our knowledge) about this rape case.

MV3 comes from a legitimate concern for user security. Every time I visit my Mom she has some Chrome extension that steals all her traffic and reads every page and reports back to some shady company. It's a huge problem for ordinary users, it's just that ad blockers legitimately do the same thing as far as the browser is concerned, so it's a hard balance to strike. If you do nothing, random people lose key personal information. If you do something, HN complains about how it's a conspiracy to make them see more ads.

As always, it's probably a little from column A and a little from column B, but mostly column A with the "unfortunate" side effect of column B. Google has had years to remove ad blockers from the extension marketplace, for example, and they'd need to write a lot less code relative to MV3.

Not building uBlock Origin into Chrome was the mistake they made here. Once there is a known-good ad-blocker built in, nobody cares about extensions anymore. (Except for the steal-your-data extensions, whose authors are definitely amongst us on HN.)
The combination is known as AXS-05 in studies and will be marketed as Auvelity.

Interesting combo. Buproprion is an antidepressant by itself, but it also inhibits the enzymes that break Dextromethorphan down in the body. Taking the two drugs together is not equivalent to taking the same dose of Dextromethorphan alone because Bupropion induces a very different exposure to DXM and its metabolites. Ignore anyone who tries to compare this to recreational DXM consumption because they're quite different.

Dextromethorphan gets a lot of attention for being an NMDA antagonist, but fewer people know that it has quite strong affinity for the serotonin transporter (the primary affinity of SSRIs). It also has potentially significant affinity for the sigma-1 receptor, the norepinephrine transporter, and several other receptors that have been noted to be potentially useful for depression modulation.

In other words, this feels a little bit like a shotgun approach to poking a wide array of receptors that may or may not be helpful in modulating depressive disorders. I'd take some of the narratives about this being an "NMDA drug like ketamine" with a huuuge grain of salt.

People have been trying this combination for several years in DIY fashion (not recommended, but info is out there) since the original study came out. I've seen some reports of good results, other reports of weird side effects that interfered with daily activities. I wouldn't rush to characterize this as a miracle drug or a first-line treatment, but it does seem to help certain patients who haven't seen much benefit from previous drugs.

Also worth noting that other studies haven't been as overwhelmingly positive as this one. Axsome Therapeutics (company researching the drug) stumbled a few years ago when their own trial failed to show statistical significance for Bupropion+DXM over Bupropion alone. Later studies seem to have been more positive though.
It seems to me matrix wants to encompass all forms of communication, vrchat being one of those.

The marketing about it being a "metaverse" seems misplaced even if its technically true or not.

I’m always happy to see this.

I know a therapist that’s interested in ketamine/psilocybin therapy and when she asked me about these types of drugs, I immediately told her that DXM is hands down obviously going to have clinical use.
Not the same. The Bupropion significantly changes the metabolism of Dextromethorphan when administered as a combo.

It's nothing like taking high doses of DXM alone for recreational purposes.
"Can't the artboard be visualized in a better way?" It absolutely can! Caching and optimizations in a zoomed out view are a core part to many design tools today.

Show HN: Find anything at your workplace with Selaro
Hey HNers
I built a Saas product that let's you search all of the integrations at your workplace. A key motivation as an engineer has been to easily discover documents written by coworkers that are mixed up in so many different platforms. Let me know what you think of the product.
The places I'm talking about were mid 90's, dozens of AlphaServers, Sun Sparcs, HP/UX systems, IBM AIX machines, etc. It was more than a single machine, but less than 50. There was shocking little automation. Everything was a pet, with crazy NFS mounts all over the place, custom scripts in /usr/local/etc not in version control, etc. If there was ever a power loss, it was a pain getting everything back up.
Dextromethorphan tolerance builds so rapidly. I have found the withdrawal to be hell after taking it legitimately for a cold longer than I realized. I have tried SSRIs and found that they also have a synergetic effect with Bupropion (good medicine). SSRIs also make me drowsy, but at least they can be sustainably taken daily for months.
