I also have people in my extended social circle who are in jobs that involve a lot of physical labor. As we all enter our late 30s-early 40s give or take, and they realize what a toll it's taking on their bodies, most of them are trying to get out of it, or have gotten out of it. They realize they aren't going to be physically able to do it another 25 years, and their bodies are going to get increasingly wrecked.

From what I've heard (including from acquaintances who have worked there), a job at an Amazon Warehouse takes a toll on your body for sure. For sure it's hardly alone in being like that.

(The people in my extended social circle who are in jobs involving physical labor are perhaps more likely than most physical laborers to have people in their social circle who sit at desks, and to be able to access networks and resources to shift out of physical labor to make a living).
The way you describe aggressively chasing promotions sounds different than losing your house. There is a middle ground in there. I also agree that people should be able to spend months with their children though. I'm glad California is supportive of that.

That's basically the DoJ's argument -- that consolidation in the publishing world will reduce title diversity, because the incentive is to focus advances and marketing budgets on a small number of potential hits, and the fewer the publishers, the more those hitmaking authors are going to be concentrated into a couple of houses. Alternatively, a larger number of smaller publishers will spread out resources and so more effectively drive a greater number and type of titles.

In response, the defendants claimed that, risibly, publishers are just a bunch of idiot hicks who don't have any idea how to market a book successfully and, anyway, wouldn't know a hit if Hemingway, Steinbeck, and Fitzgerald all reached over the transom and slapped them silly with the manuscript -- basically, "we're all so incompetent at our chosen industry that we couldn't even take advantage of our oligopsony if we had it." Which I find ... questionable.
The big one I see a lot is replacing the grass and sky in external shots or the windows in interior shots.
All of them, as almost all developed nations can now build nuclear, for example. It just requires not being reliant on fossil fuel. Which would have been easy to avoid had the process started earlier.

The first mistake was being reliant on gas for energy.

The second mistake was that it was Russian gas.

It’s the first mistake that should have been avoided, not the second.
Related I also gotta recommend "Uncommon Carriers" by John McPhee. It's got a chapter that follows a barge operator on the Illinois river that's pretty great.
PhD candidate in cancer bio, ~decade in biotech.

Cancer is an umbrella term for diseases with a shared feature: unchecked proliferation of cells. “Curing” cancer looks like developing effective therapies to mitigate this cell growth, and is usually specific to the mechanisms that led to this aberrant behavior.

Certain cancers share similar driving processes for their growth, or possess features that enable them to be specifically targeted and killed. Much of cancer research focuses on studying these mechanisms and tumor biology; some of this work is translated into drugs and therapies.

You can throw money at cancer and have no effect on the disease. But the biosciences are currently experiencing a bit of a technological renaissance, e.g. automation, labs as a service, massive reduced cost of sequencing, ai/ml.

I’d say large sums of money aren’t sufficient for effective cancer research, but they are necessary. Hopefully tech brings greater efficiency to the field.
One difference that stands out here is that in the original code, the methods "node->next" and "node->edit" both belong to a "node" namespace, so you could have other objects with the same method name, e.g. perhaps "document->edit(patch)", and there would be no collision since they're in different namespaces.

But in your lisp version "next" and "edit" appear to be global methods. That seems like it could lead to a lot of naming collisions. Could you still have a document type that you can call "(edit document patch)" on? A preliminary Google search suggests that CLOS methods can't have definitions with a different number of parameters, so now you're stuck with a global "edit" method that can only ever take one parameter.
Define “lots.” Because the default limit in AWS is 10 accounts per org.

Quota increases can be requested but the default limit tells us what AWS thinks normal usage should be for most use cases.

The vapor pressure of methane is about 6.25 MPa. For comparison a bike tire has about 0.4 MPa, a car tire closer to 0.2-0.25. So you need a pretty damn good compressor and pressure vessel / pipeline, versus a simple tank for methanol. Also worth noting that the methanol can later be easily converted to dimethyl ether and used as a cleaner-burning diesel fuel (vapor pressure ~0.5 MPa), where it may be possible to convert existing engines:

I am a data scientist with good software engineering skills, and an aptitude for tasks centering around data and processes: automating business workflows or mining insights from a dataset.

I'm eight years into my career, and at the stage of looking for unique and interesting opportunities. If you're doing something cool and need a data literate technical person to help you with it, please reach out! I'll consider full time roles, but would prefer to take work on part time or freelancing basis.
It isn't disturbing on a deep level, there is just inequality on many levels. Most people who get an unequal share of the wealth are probably also taking on way more stress than the average person undergoes.

An ideal world would be one where someone was able to do focused creative work for a few months and then mindless manual labor for a few months and trade back and forth as desired. That will never happen but I would love it.
Those are important questions we seem to desperately avoid as a society. Things are happening despite not having those answers.

My guess is that humans will be sidelined as AI is developing exponentially. There probably won't be a big war human vs machine instead we will probably see humans being turned into some kind of zoo animals as we already are if you look from far away. Then the AI will do its thing in space while we sit here happily staring into the stars.
oh wow, I really got drawn into a discussion here. now I'm not an expert on QV, but my recollection is this: cardinal voting allows people to express the strength of their preferences rather than just the order. so if there's an issue that a minority cares about a lot while the majority is just indifferent, then the minority can concentrate their votes on that issue and move it higher up the ballot (more so than in an ordinal voting system).

so in your example, if the wolves have a 2/3 preference for sheep for dinner and 1/3 for apples, and the sheep has a 100% preference for apples, then with linear voting the group decision would be 5/3 vs 4/3 in favour of apples. with quadratic voting, the vote weights would be sqrt(1)+2sqrt(1/3) for apples and 2sqrt(2/3) for sheep, and apples would still win. so in this example, the sheep can push the group decision because its preference is stronger than the wolves', something it couldn't express by just ranking the options (if the wolves had a 100% for sheep, that would still win)

so as we just saw, there are different ways to implement cardinal preferences, and QV is one of them that has been shown to be optimal under some standard (but still debatable) utility assumptions.

that being said, if we were going to seriously consider implementing QV, I'd still have a lot of questions - I mentioned collusion, but also about manipulation resistance: what if the wolves anticipate this outcome and strategically misrepresent the relative strength of their preferences to make sure that their absolutely preferred option wins? they could still do that even without collusion. it's another common problem in voting mechanisms, I don't know how strong that problem is in QV (maybe the manipulation would be exponentially hard to compute, or very easy, Idk rn)
> What happens when it learns that you're a hypochondriac?
> What happens when an insurance company goes to a data-broker and finds out that you've been googling cancer symptoms?

1) We cannot solely rely on Apple's selective definition of privacy to resolve these. As an example, what if your health insurance company offers an app and you use that app to search for cancer? Should the insurance company be able to use that data? We need very strong legal protections as a more comprehensive solution that works across all types of data companies can gather to make medical decisions.

> What happens when it learns that you have a gambling problem?
> What happens when it learns that you have a retail addiction?

2) You need to consider that (1) advertisers don't need to learn this! People willingly give them this data (e.g. by signing up for a sports betting app), and (2) this also opens the door to reach people to help them. No targeted advertising does not mean that these societal issues just disappear. These are still there but just harder to see.

> What happens when your ad profile identifies you as somebody who has had an abortion in one of the states where it's illegal? Can the ad company be subpoenaed?

3) While I abhor the decision on Roe vs Wade, let's flip this to: what if the ad profile identifies you as a seller of fentanyl? Would you want the ads data to be eligible for use in prosecution? I would. Saying that banning targeted ads protects women's privacy is security through obfuscation. That is not a solution.
I'm not sure the economics of paying for everyone's tuition, but I don't think this is the issue here. NYU has a $6 billion endowment (~100k/student, projecting modestly from Wikipedia's numbers) and costs nearly $40k in tuition after aid. They're flush with money, and so is the average student (or their family at least). Harvard of all places is known for grade inflation, so I don't think low standards is a money problem.
How is any of this a surprise, healthcare is screwed in the USA unless one can afford it. The worst thing about America besides the guns is the inhumane lack of free, quality healthcare.
Why deny his experience, though? Not everything needs to be viewed through a lens of privilege. I hope the author gained an appreciation for those less fortunate or less ambitious. At least they have experienced the "other side," so to speak.
The problem is that advertising never gives you balanced information.

You would be better served by talking to other parents, by reading information from consumer organizations, by reading reviews, even by talking to shop personnel (where multiple brands are sold).
The reason I as a dev earn a lot more than our order picker where I work is that the software I have built is speeding up everything. I created massive improvements in efficiency. My high salary is justified because my work has a much bigger impact on the finances.

It is that simple. I interview often to get a true market rate. Nobody would pay me what I'm making if the market for devs wasn't this good.
Yeah all accounts are in the same OU. We do have human IAM users but those are "legacy". Nowadays Okta has been the preferred method of accessing AWS console and CLI. We do use terraform but that is also fragmented since each team has the freedom to innovate in their own way. People use CDK, SAM, CloudFormation, Terraform etc. This fracturing of IaC techniques has been a natural consequence of having too many silos aka. accounts and has made it hard to enforce consistency. I think having 2 or 3 accounts is probably ok for a small to medium size org. We are 96 humans so far.
Ya I was just making a little joke about the US's right-wing solutions for distributing healthcare, and "equality of opportunity" arguments people make.

IRL some of the poorest people I know have been screwed over by attempting to use similar programs.

Myself, I really don't want to have to fucking rebalance my healthcare portfolio. As opposed to, y'know, just walking in the building, getting my healthcare, walking out, and squaring up at tax time on a progressive curve.
Get out of your head and think about yourself. Forget all labels. Listen to your gut and inner voice. Do what makes you happy.

If you don’t know what makes you happy that’s step one.
One is hearsay to the speaker. Unless proof is provided, they’re both hearsay all the same to the receiving audience.
A lot of things. For example you can use it to copy files (moovies, music, etc) on the drive of the console to watch them. Or you can download data from the console itself (screenshots, video recordings, etc).

You can use SSH to run commands to automatize things, for example turning off the console, launching an update, installing new software, etc, while not being in front of the TV.

Finally you can use it to diagnose problems on the console, for example you can connect to run a diagnosis, from which you may find out that the hard drive is causing problems and you should replace it, or the console is overheating and thermal throttling, etc.
HN overtakes Reddit and Facebook in insane comments: "fasting cures cancer"
Modern HLS/DASH streaming off a VPS/CDN combination is extremely fast because it's just HTTP as far as the servers are concerned. If you've got a fast HTTP serving system you can serve tons of clients without many problems. Storage however is still an issue. You need enough storage for your content at the distribution edges.

My point is the P2P on top is very difficult to actually build and have work well. Like HTTP serving it doesn't obviate storage needs. You need to seed all of the content you distribute via P2P.
Congrats on v5.

Have you tried it yet with GraalVM and native compilation?

Any gotchas?
> ... I still don't understand the exception Apple purportedly gets from its tracking rules.

As Ben Thompson has been shouting, it's because Apple has a very convenient definition of "tracking".
> It’s insulting to the dev community who drove the success of the app store and arguably iOS in general. No amount of “we love our devs” PR can reconcile this.

Apple built this market to control it completely, you could see it coming from miles away. It seems like the big move nowadays is build your market (i.e. "platform") and you get to be judge, jury and executioner. How did you see something like this playing out? I just don't understand how people still aren't cynical enough to see this kind of thing coming.

I think, this can't be handled on a general or universal basis. E.g., in the given case, I don't think that anybody would find a rough line tracing infringing. So, how comes that it's infringing, when the lines are filled by a black ink? Moreover, it's not a perfect copy, aspect and format are different (sufficiently to make this a legal museum copy), texture and color are different, even the outlines don't match. Even more, it seems that it wasn't initially apparent to even Lynn Goldsmith herself that Warhol's portrait was based on this photo. Where's the exact border between "inspired by" and "an infringing copy"?

This case is even more interesting, as the photographer argues that the Warhol's image directly competed with the original photo for a cover of Vogue and that the magazine picked Warhol's image to license. But, this is also a strong indication of the genuine artistic value of Warhol's work/version, since there was a reason that this was picked by the editors over the other one. There is a semantic difference, which was introduced by Warhol.
I suspect Monopoly is a better game model.
The age of PHEV should have been 2005-2020. The dumb shits in regulatory should have seen the Prius/Insight in 1997 and been HOLY SHIT ALL CARS SHOULD HAVE THIS AND BE PLUGINs. And yet... yeah nothing that was the Bush Administration circa 2000, haha. Not happening.

Now? Why invest in a brand new comprehensive PHEV platform? All existing ICE platforms are "last hurrahs". Like, holy shit ALL ICE PLATFORMS are dinosaurs. They won't invest in new ones, no way, they need ALLLLL that for EV switchover to stand a small chance of surviving the big paradigm shift. No new engines, no new transmissions, no new gee-whiz ICE tech. The last gasp was Mazda's compression ignited gasoline engine, that's probably it.

If the regulatory agencies had said in 2000, "in 10 years all consumer cars will be hybrids, ideally with PHEV hybrids, and ideally in increasing all-electric range capability, and we will deliver a good subsidy and a hefty penalty" and moved the entire industry to PHEV, we'd have had a good decade of ramp-up to hybrid platforms, getting everyone used to home charging, had great gas mileage, had 50-80% of consumer daily trips fully electric, and probably had all electric drivetrain components further down the maturity path.

But... we don't. PHEVs probably could still make an impact in the next ten years, but there is no way our nonfunctional congress could get that done. Instead, it is full bore on full EVs and people carrying around 5x-10x more batteries than they need for driving.

My idea for that is to offer a city car that has about 100 miles of range, and then an optimized aerodynamics "trailer" that is either a battery or a gas generator that extends the range of the car. You could rent them, swap them at exchange kiosks (fully charged/fueled) at highway truck stops, and bam no recharge issues on the car's main battery. That would be cheap EV cars that maximize battery supply. All you need is a trailer hitch and a special charging port on the rear of the car.

That inside-out rotary engine would be perfect for a really long range extender that uses synthfuels or fossil, or for long haul semis. Oh yeah, semis would be perfect for a two-behind booster battery. It could have drive wheels to help stabilize in crosswinds, it could have aero shape to help with the "flying wall" effect of most trailers. The trailers could also do hydrogen, although I still think hydrogen is a trojan horse by the petroleum companies.
Since that original patch, the codebase was moved out of contrib and is now scalar.c alongside the other git source files.

Remaining a seperate command rather than a subcommand is motivated by command line backwards compatibility for users of the c version from microsoft/git, but also for users of the older C# version.

If they did git-scalar then they would still need a contrib subfolder command wrapper executable (not just a script, as many users are on windows and rely on it being an executable, not just a bash script).
We use Okta and put ppl in groups so I'm not sure if that would work.
Attention is not the problem; it's the lack of accountability. Social platforms care about engagement, not quality of content (there's virtually no mechanism to incentivize content meets any standard of quality other than what can be measured in the moment).
Yep. Same here, at my level of experience can deliver work in high-quality at a fraction of time required for a junior. Instead of burn-out, use the extra time to enjoy other things and keep learning/improving.
Is it an iterative process?

I was surprised to see the harbor freight calliper looking identical to the one I bought 20 years ago. It still works nicely, too. And I'm even still using the original battery!
For all intents and purposes it acts like a cloth? That means, I am hoping, taking it off will be clean and not like removing cotton from a rose bush.
I see! So the Soviets were actually the good guys? Or at least well-intentioned...

I assume the same logic could be applied to the history of the Third Reich too, right?

It is workable, but apple still gets the secret sauce that's personal data. Apple can personalize the ads better, and measure performance better.
I'm in tech and work from home. I own the home. I get heaps of physical exercise gardening and maintaining the house. Cutting back plants that are too big, putting new planets in. Mowing the lawn. Painting here and there. I have a leak in one of the bedroom ceilings. I built a deck out the back - that was a big job. You know there is also just normal chores around the house that keep me moving. Doing the laundry. Cleaning.

Anyhow, I say embrace your chores. Don't pay somebody to do them for you.

Kinda-sorta. ML is a bit more about optimisation theory, not control, but there's a lot of overlap: you can consider controllers to be optimisers, and optimisers can be used in control (a sub-field called optimal control). One big constraint in control is it has to be causal, i.e. it only sees part of the function it is trying to optimise (the part that is in the past) and only has the ability to influence part of the input in the system it is optimising (the part in the future). Control also has a huge amount of overlap with signal processing, both analog and digital (most of the math is basically the same).

Look into liquid bandages. It's exactly this and is already available at every drug store. Comes as a little nail polish-style bottle + brush.

It sterilizes and seals, pretty much replacing my whole bandaid kit I used to keep in my pocket book.

I'll even buy a bunch at a time and give them out to friends. It's so useful yet no one knows about it.

(That said, you won't be sealing bullet wounds or giant gashes with it)
