browsing a well sorted library is rarely a random walk is it?

usually you go to a specific section _because_ it will contain a plethora of views and ways to express them, in that section, and the librarian, if asked, will guide you to the core works and what to read first to get an overview, or has them singled out in an extra shelf or table.

and in addition, your skimming is not page limited.

discoverability is the second, subordinate case the article makes, though.

persistence is the even bigger challenge: how do I know the article I've recommended to you is the article you're going to see? not just some little edition and helpful factual correction, but a subtle rewrite, twist in tone? or even worse, differently tuned articles depending on who we are, as identified by, say, our cookies, we see a 'libdem' and a 'repcon' version of the same article under the same headline? and we'll never know because your device shows one, my device shows the other one?
Amazon had a book bundling program similar to this called "Kindle MatchBook".

However, it ended in 2019:

I went to NYU, albeit many, many, years ago.

I also failed a class - a bonafide big fat F fail.

I retook the class and got an A. However my final grade for the class was a C, because NYU policy (at least back then) was to average out your grades.

Plus the primary reason I failed my first attempt was because my professor was a hardass strict ex-military Lt. Colonel who gave no mercy. On my second attempt, my professor was a sweet old man approaching retirement who gave open book + open notes multiple choice exams.

Meanwhile I had friends at other schools - Rutgers, for example, who also failed classes and retook them. However for them, their final grade was either their best grade, or most recent one (I don’t recall). So if they failed, then got an A on the retry, their grade would be an A.

I think we were given one chance to withdraw from a class, before it finished. I don’t remember why I didn’t for the class I failed - I might have used up my chance already because I recall I was doing terribly that semester in general.

Granted this was many years ago. I’m not sure what NYU’s current policies are.

I remember severely regretting choosing NYU over Rutgers because I graduated with an abominable GPA, partially because of this averaging of grades.
It didn't take long for my point to be proven in a dramatic act of unaware self-parody. Thanks for making it perfectly clear to OP (I mean, original question asker) - if OP was indeed, genuinely unaware of what far right wing narcissistic rage looks like, which i kind of doubt.

I can be racist (teach white nationalism), you can't call me racist (that's the dread cultural cultural marxism again!). I should be subject to no laws (that restrict fascist propagandisation or mobilisation), but laws that restrict the rights of women, blacks, degenerate leftists etc. should be enforced presumably to the point of street execution (it's your own fault! gotta obey those laws!)

And so it goes..
If they'd actually done the thing everyone is blaming it on (ie. spend vastly more on renewables than fossil fuels or nuclear) it wouldn't be a problem
The difference being that two different people are unlikely to have the same error.

Whereas the software will gladly just make the same mistake over and over again until corrected.

The dictation on my phone is pretty good. It's still frequently wrong.
Where I live, pharmacists can rewrite prescriptions from doctors, write their own (in limited cases) and in some circumstances extend prescriptions without renewals from a doctor (e.g. a family member was still able to get bipolar medication even though on paper they shouldn't have). Pharmacists are given the power and responsibility to fix mistakes, their specialty is the exceptional cases that computers aren't coded for, that's why they are highly educated and paid.

He talked about VC funding. Vitalik won the Thiel Fellowship which afaik is open to anyone.

Please provide further evidence of how VC funding made Ethereum, because off the books I’ve read on its origins, yeah there was some money out in at the start but nothing too crazy.
>While it's great at compressing the image,

Cloudinary compared tens of thousands of samples and found HEIF turns out to be the best at compressing images, even better than AVIF.

So I do think HEIF could have its uses outside of the web. And it would be interesting to see how VVC performs as an image format.

I do wish the world pays more attention to JPEG XL though. Which is technically better in almost every single way.
I wonder how readily RPi-compatible boards can be had from Aliexpress. (They are a good source of Arduino-compatible boards.)
Unfortunately, that's not how it works. The prescription has to be reviewed by a pharmacist before it will even dispense through an automatic dispensing system.
Thus continuing the time-honored tradition of the entire Ultima series: trying to find a way to kill Lord British. Garriot's self-insert is the king of the land of Britannia in pretty much every one of the games, and there's some way to kill him in just about all of them.

Why would it tip the scales for the Russians?

It’s not going to just make the Russians become more organised and start winning the war ? Maybe you think it will make Russians more angry and motivated to kill people on Ukraine, mostly though people will just think war is stupid and wasteful.
I am a professional photographer who began taking photos in the days of film. For point of reference, it was 2007 when I switched from shooting film to shooting digital. When shooting film, I would carefully meter the scene, make sure the proper lens was on the camera, compose, shoot, take the completed roll of film to the lab and.....wait. One week to ten days.

Today's cameras embedded into this mini-computer/talisman we carry around, that we insist on calling a "phone", are incredible marvels of modern engineering. So incredible, that people are tempted to document everything through them, until it seems like "me" is the image that is projected to the world, not the identity you share with intimates.

You're not limited to reducing the complicated, dynamic aspects that define "you" to the flat, small image that comes from the camera that comes with your phone. You're welcome to pick up a Nikon or a Canon camera at any time, and see how much richer life looks through its horizontal frame that adheres to the golden ratio.
I don’t remember with complete certainty, but I’m pretty sure developer mode on the Xbox can be turned back off relatively easily. You can use it like a dual boot and keep your games and data.

Still a pain in the ass, and I never did it because there’s a big button that _does_ erase all your data in the process of switching that you can click by accident.
what do you all expect from a company that markets as the most open platform that is full of closed firmware and NDAs?
> Getting money from rich old people

that's sort of shabby treatment of a group of people who step forward as willing to give money. You're singling them out because virtually nobody else is stepping forward. But you want the money (that's called greed, btw) so I guess you'd rather have money disbursed to you... how?

the proper functioning of an economy is essentially defined as allocating resources in a way that leads to the best outcomes for the most people. Look around the world and describe a better system than the one the US has had. I agree it's headed in the wrong direction, but it's not at all clear how to fix it.
To welshwelsh's point, he wasn't advocating for no moderation, but rather good and limited moderation. For example, I doubt most would have an issue with something like moderation over cheating.
I've also heard so many more impressive and concrete memory anecdotes.

John Mulaney had a great one about Bill Clinton remembering his mother's name decades after meeting her once in college.

So I was expecting a lot more out of this article.
Healthcare executive 20 years, wrote Hacking Healthcare for O'Reilly... So long as this is used for routine filling of routine medications with low risks I think this can work. However it is also my opinion that Walgreens is a very, very poorly run organization. If you followed the Theranos story and documents you can see just how poorly.

To the people saying pharmacists should not be involved at all, that is insane. Prescription errors are a very large source of preventable error that causes significant harm. Lots of error cannot be solved by computer because it lacks the information, like identity, drug and dosing errors. There are a lot of inputs that only a human can evaluate at dispensing time. This robotic filling, as I read it, does not necessarily prevent that.

For reference, there are roughly ~110 million possible drug formulations (drug x dose x route etc) that are currently legally dispensable and distinct, in the US. Any drug can interact with any other, different dose x route x drug combinations may interact differently. A large set of the population is on dozens of drugs simultaneously. Taking into account the patients age/weight/race/level of sickness is important and makes the overall matrix very very large for raw computation.

You might then say: well humans aren't good at a matrix that large either, that is in some ways true but humans are pretty good at detecting exceptional circumstances even though though they are not rotely walking that large key space. It is also true that there is a heavy weighting towards about 1,000 much more common drugs. It is not a new idea to add computers to interactions/dispensing/etc. It has been tried for 20 years, the outcome results of many efforts have been poor.

A gold standard in pharmacy interactions is to maximize the amount of time between pharmacist and patient. Pharmacists aren't pill monkeys rotely stuffing things in bottles. They have important diagnostic, education and safety functions. Especially when they can see and interact with the patient. If there was any true broad economic incentive to be preventative pharmacists would take your vitals and temperature as well but currently our system does not make that economic.
Not to speak for a whole community but I think the decentralization idealist would say that people can do their own moderation, instead of relying on a central entity which makes the same broad rules for everyone
Are they? Both of these things happen regularly in California and have been for decades.

Ask HN: Has the Internet Become a Burden?
The internet nowadays is boring. Everything on the internet is monetized. From your clicks to selling you subscription. Everyone is trying to make a buck. Going on the internet is stressful and full of anxiety due to social media. People talk about detoxing from the internet. Has the internet become a burden to society? Were we happier when the internet was simpler?
> Less so when anti-vaxxers ensure we don't reach that point

Wouldn't most anti-vaxxers have been infected by now & thus have durable immunity based on every protein of the virus vs. a single sub-unit of a protein?

For what it's worth most of my vaccinated friends have been infected multiple times, it took me 2.5 years, as I was out and about living my life in crowded public places, to get infected and it went away after 4 days of mild illness.
Yea I'm not sure what they think this has to do with Covid. They were all at zero risk. Most young people I know just kept partying and doing the same things anyway.
And Code by Charles Petzold. I did the NAND2Tetris course and it was so much fun. I think I’ll redo it to brush up
Yes, it's a burden. It funnels money from the general public to already elaborately wealthy people and corporations.

I can confirm that we were happier when the internet was simpler, and more fragmented.
What types of contradictions fail in the computer but pass the doc ?

Why does this difference exist?
Right? But in the history rock 'n roll, in the history of music, in the history of warm-blooded vertebrates, I don't know of hardly anyone that was ever a Beatle.
probably because it renders poorly on a narrow mobile device screen. Doesn't HN have a <pre> markup?
There are types of queries that people discount. Navigational queries for instance, that essentially use Google as a spellcheck + DNS.

And many queries that are solved with 0 visits, thanks to the information being pulled out from the wiki, or giving up and rephrasing the query.

After those, then yes, most queries will be answered by the first page. It's what retrieval is optimized for.
Ubuntu/Canonical aren't great in this space either.

12.10 had Amazon Search baked in: https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2012/10/privacy-ubuntu-1210-am...

When even my healthcare websites contain Google tracking tags, it's getting harder to find _anything_ untainted by advertising companies, even after paying what I would consider a reasonable price for the service itself.
Google is garbage. Bing is a bitch. DuckDuckGo doesn't do great, Yandex is yawn. search sucks.
"The oldest continuously operating webcam is still operating" is tautological, no?
Yes, I tried arguing with someone that it was actually more secure to run your Lambda without associating it with a VPC. If it doesn't need access to the VPC resources, it shouldn't be "run in" one. What can be more secure than having absolutely no access?
Oh my, no, there wasn’t any “responsible disclosure,” but rather some serious animosity from Sony. They sued Geohot, and won an injunction against him hacking on any Sony products.
I think this just tells us author is using a method counterintuitive to what AWS would recommend, so while you may try it out that it probably isn't best practice and so when you screw up then you will just be left pointing to some blog as to why you chose the direction you did.
I want URLs that handle spaces. Like I could enter www.coca cola.com. [and not www.coca-cola.com. nor www.cocacola.com.) and it would work. "Simple space". Even the Latin/Roman alpha had space(s).
What skills do you think are most beneficial in your case? I’m 27 and want to migrate more into systems/low level dev to prepare for being an old fart next year.

I’ve been doing some assembly/C stuff for fun.
I just updated to use sans-serif, so hopefully it looks nicer now.
Bassist?

I get a fair amount of that kind of work too, on bass. Mostly jazz, where the repertoire of "standards" is finite. I also go to fiddle jams, where the fiddlers themselves often have no idea what the harmony should be, or how to express that information.

Of course a trick that a layperson might not notice, is that the notes are nowhere close to random.

But I love the challenge of that kind of work if it's with good players.
>> The question I haven't been able to solve:

>> How can good content be monetized in a way that allows it to remain independent and not succumb to warping its content to feed that monetization? How can it be audience driven instead? Is such a thing even possible? Right now good monetization strategies beget bad content. There's got to be a better way than cobbling together five platforms under a Patreon account, giving all of them 10-50% along the way.

I'll tell you how: pay-per-view content

But don't do it by individual silos. I want a service where I pay monthly, say, $50, and I can go to ANY content to get what I need: Bloomberg, WSJ, wikipedia, Medium, CommonSenseMedia, Gamespot, whatever. Stop forcing me to view these sites daily to maximize my return (ie. newspapers). I want ala cart that pulls from a common fund. I don't want to sign up for 20 different sites with recurring fees that I have to remember to cancel when I don't use it anymore. Anyone can put what they want in ($5, $50, $100) and the premium content pulls from that. Per article. Per visit. Per 5 requests, whatever.
Perhaps, but the epidemic of sedentary lifestyle has lead to a large suite of problems, ranging from miserable back pain to cardiovascular problems to diabetes. The average office worker can barely run a mile, do a pullup, squat below parallel with their bodyweight, or climb a flight of stairs without panting.

Some of us spend hours a week compensating for this. If lifting boxes and carrying them around all day long paid a fraction of the salary I have, I think I would take it in a heartbeat. It sounds delightful. You prefer to be in meetings for 6 hours a day and scramble to code in between them? And let me guess, no neck pain and daily headaches for you right ?
I think they have very very high potential for simple dynamical (i.e. continuous time) systems. I enjoyed the presentation given at NeurIPS (2018) and look forward to seeing them applied to more real-life scenarios.
In general, costs are a decent estimate of the amount of work needed to do something.

And we know that automation greatly reduces costs.
It appears to me that Google filters a lot of search results that could be used to find vulnerable or compromised boxes.

Over twenty years ago reprehensible people could google "Welcome to IIS 4.0" and find lots of mostly-unpatched boxes running Microsoft's web server software. That stopped working while there was still lots of IIS 4 around.

There used to be lots more photographs of windows keys on google image search.

I have list of google dorks for finding certain types of compromised web servers, worked five years ago, don't work anymore.
It is true in the field of computer science at least where the market has destroyed the academic sphere in terms of innovation by building better products.
PyScript ( https://pyscript.net ) recently came out, though I don't know if Django works with it yet.
Chinese fossil discovery rewrites the history of life on Earth
I cannot say enough good things about this creator. His most recent one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhfCietvDZo is a tour de force of historical astronomy, and entrancing to watch.
this hurts to see being posted after we just had layoffs
Na its the greatest thing but I'll inevitably shut it all down.
How many people use compounding pharmacies outside of hospitals nowadays? I'm personally happy to see the possible automation of low-level work in the pharmacy world.
If you've documented them, then they are no longer undocumented.
I think the rate is much higher for most of professional sports.

Which does not make me disagree with your take (I jokingly call all those kinesio tapes "doping" as well: they help tendons and muscles take loads they can't take naturally).
Ahh... memories of old webcams.

In the student lab I hung out in, there was a Mac IIcsomething and somehow it got a video capture card and a video camera. The video capture app was left running on the system (in the startup items too) and would capture once every so often (lets say about a minute). But, by itself, this wasn't enough. So it also ran an ftp server. We then had another system with a cron job and ftp the file to the unix system hosting the web server.

Looking it up...

Testing a Cheap ExpressCard to NVMe SSD Adapter on My ThinkPad T430
Most cheaters do — but they’ll represent their viewpoint in terms that claim a “greater cause”, such as individual liberties or rights or whatever, so that they can try to rabble-rouse the crowd against enforcement in order to continue cheating. (This occurs with kernel anti-cheat drivers, for example, but there’s no way to measure what percentage of folks that is.)
This is interesting to me, as I try to change careers with no degree. I recently applied for the Walgreens Pharmacy Tech Apprenticeship.[^1] But, it seems like those jobs will be automated away soon too... I'm really looking for a tech support job, but options are limited in this small town.
