Modern farming is completely dependent on those ports you so eagerly gave away. How many millions of people would die of starvation and from the inevitable resource wars while the few people who know how to farm the old-fashioned way figured out how to make it work on land that's been made dependent on abundant imported fertilizer and pesticides?

I do not believe the people yelling "secession!" are prepared to revert to a pre-WWI world.
is it? most of the agriculturally and industrially productive land is out in flyover country. and depending on who you ask areas that are mostly agriculture qualify as "flyover" even if they're e.g. east oregon/cali/washington. new england is probably the one exception but it's small in terms of area and ag output.
I work in CGI/design. We have had machine learning denoisers for some time but other than that ai has not changed cgi much. VR another hype, merely a distraction- the serious work is not VR.

I think this is it. I have a single markdown file for all my casual notes (1), and a folder structure for my permanent notes (2). Notes of type 2 are the most valuable long-term, and it's worth the time to select what to store, and to structure it right.

I'm always on the hunt of my ideal open source, lightweight, non-cloud, cross-platform, mobile-friendly hierarchical note taking app, but I know I'm asking too much, maybe I'll never find it. Meanwhile I use plain text editors.
I really like these videos because they're trippy.

Someone should work on a neural net to generate trippy videos. It would probably be much easier than realistic videos (esp. because these videos are noticeably generated from obvious to subtle).

Also is nobody paying attention to the fact that they got words correct? At least "Imagen Video". Prior models all suck at word order

Your overall point is solid, but your last statement and links are up for severe political debate. It's not as much of a solid fact yet as some might believe or want to believe, with a lot of hand-waving in both articles. I think you're better served by removing them.
Once you've designed and built the grinding machine (I saw a picture of it, it fills a special room) you've done most of it. Same for the custom test rig.

Being able to specify images by hash would be a simpler alternative.

Requiring signed images seems like an arbitrary place to require signatures, given that there's plenty of parts of kubernetes deployment configs that could be used to do damage and you need the whole thing authenticated. I guess a benefit of having signed images instead of content-addressed images is that they could be updated by a trusted person without needing to update any kubernetes deployments, but presumably you'd want to tell kubernetes to switch its running instances to the new images so that sounds like an incomplete solution.

Just a note to you and the other commenter with a similar comment, they said “counties”, not “countries” and linked to a piece about a county in the US.
You guys are really delusional. You think the economic powerhouses (SF, LA, etc) in CA will just let half of CA secede?

California produces almost 14% of all the crops grown in the US. A large portion of that are nuts and high calorie items like avocado and soy. You want food oils? Grains? Meats? CA exports all of those. CA is the 4th biggest producer of cattle in the US, 10th biggest poultry producer. 9th biggest producer of potatoes (Washington is #1, another coastal state). 2nd biggest rice producer.

As far as energy, you realize Texas is also not one of your flyover states, right? And even if it wasn't, we import plenty of energy from pipelines to coastal states so it can be sold or refined. CA has nearly the same refinement capabilities as Texas itself.

Fly over states are land. Undeveloped land is not extrinsically valuable.
Wow, that's pretty impressive especially with no code changes! Thanks for the breakdown and for sharing!

That's true. I'll probably grab one once the official site works again, but I was weighing that, plus the inconvenience of having to manage funds in yet another location and keep the tax implications in mind (you only have to pay federal taxes on interest here).

I parse my team's nginx logs with a script even though they aren't in JSON. I'm fine with it and other people can do as they like. I also do all my application logging as just vanilla logs, and I use grep & less like the cretin I am, plus a tiny bit of bash for helping with gzip and so on.

If you want to go log-crazy with a big elaborate deal and the whole ELK thing and so forth and so on, by all means, if you can afford it - which means afford to see it all the way through. Too many times I've had to deal with teams where everybody says, "Yeah... It would be nice to have logs...." because someone built the Big Elaborate Thing and nobody can figure it out, find it, etc. etc. It becomes a long-term "would be" instead of "is".

I'm not sure how to say this in a non-dickish way, but most of us have to do stuff we don't particularly enjoy in order to make a living. I get that it sucks from your vantage point, but like... I'm sure there were stablehands who loved horses and had no interest in becoming mechanics. Shit happens.

I have, just now. Nothing happened at either end - the URL was not accessed at all. I can get it to recognise it's a QR code on my iPhone by tapping to focus the image, waiting for the OCR badge, tapping that, and then tapping the image again to bring up a small menu with the URL as a title and headed by "Open in Safari". None of those steps accesses the URL. You have to make a conscious action to access the URL...

The new Nix command syntax that was there up to 2.3 was always marked as experimental, but it worked fine for many years, I used it in many projects ... until it got deleted and replaced with flakes. I really hope they don't do that again. Flakes are de facto adopted by now, if they break it once more, it will fragment the ecosystem. Though there are rough edges where a breaking change would be beneficial in the long run.

As far as I understand it, Firefox is not reading QR codes out of images and automatically opening links, but rather reloading already opened URLs that were coming from QR codes. Maybe not ideal, but far better than having the OS scan for QR codes in background and loading them without warning.
Can anyone comment on how advanced https://phenaki.video/index.html is?

> That seems like a reasonable thing to do, but there is a lot of pseudoscience in the audio world that will get you to buy platinum tipped styluses for depressing buttons on your remote.

I think there are a LOT of these. I wish I knew when "reasonable" or "plausible" pan out.
I want to make something that tries to solve the problem. I want to be part of a movement of creators that create the solution. I don't want to discourage protest but I don't really believe in it as a method for solving the big problems we are having. There are times for protest but protests aren't providing a solution that people believe or care about. That solution needs to be created first. (To be clear: I'm not talking about "Protest against autocrats" I'm specifically talking about "Protest against our unsustainable society".)

Revolutions of the past (or against autocrats) succeed because they presented a solution that people genuinely believed in and want. If degrowth is to convince anyone outside a small niche it needs to be reframed/restructured/remade into a vision that people want. Not a solution that people are guilt-tripped into while believing they have to give up every comfort while others can still keep doing what they do.

I think there are seeds of this vision scattered about here and there. But it needs to be turned into a robust ideology that can stand the scrutiny of social media 2022+.

And in this lies the problem that ideology is kind of dead. Or it needs to get some kind of rebirth. Social media eat modernist ideologies for breakfast and poops out a mess that people so far has only been able to build messy populism or very niche movements from.

So we might need a way to go past modernist ideology. Maybe we need to reinvent democracy. The closest idea I have found so far is the idea of the "Third Attractor" - Creating collectivist truth through some kind of well thought out method for structured discourse, negotiation and decision making. Making something that scales here seems to me like one of the defining issues of our time.

I'm probably still naive about what seeds are out there though because there is just sooo much. And I'm just a software engineer so what the hell do I know. But I don't see anyone else connecting the dots enough to create something that people in general can agree on so I suppose I can allow myself to speculate.
Maybe it's not your intention, but your comment seems to imply that it's too difficult to attempt because of how much copper would be involved. However, I suspect you wouldn't need to purchase all the copper up front.

You'd be aiming for short runs off of existing power infrastructure and you'd be scaling up over time. You also wouldn't be running these to every single place that a car _could_ park, just trying to get a critical mass of them near where people live.

Most people already have lots of copper cabling in their houses and most cars are parked overnight near to residential housing, so the additional copper used would only be some fraction of what is already in most homes.

> correlation_id … microservices

We actually did something slightly different: the correlation ID is generated at the start of a request, where it enters "our stuff" as a whole. But downstream "microservice" style requests get a different correlation ID, but with the original as a prefix. So if you have lots of microservice calls being made this means you can select any subtree with some prefix. The original correlation ID is the entire tree, but you might have,

b8a0b848-92e6-49e7-bde2-283e165b02e4 # the original request
b8a0b848-92e6-49e7-bde2-283e165b02e4/authz # request to authz service
b8a0b848-92e6-49e7-bde2-283e165b02e4/foo-db/0 # first subrequest to foo-db
b8a0b848-92e6-49e7-bde2-283e165b02e4/foo-db/1 # second subrequest to foo-db
b8a0b848-92e6-49e7-bde2-283e165b02e4/foo-db/2 # third subrequest to foo-db
b8a0b848-92e6-49e7-bde2-283e165b02e4/bar-db/0 # first subrequest to bar-db

etc. So you can pull just the original request with "= 'b8a0b848-92e6-49e7-bde2-283e165b02e4'", a whole subsystem with something like "starts_with 'b8a0b848-92e6-49e7-bde2-283e165b02e4/foo-db/'", so on. Very convenient. (Our graphs weren't even that deep; we really just have "backends for your frontends" and "backends" and that was mostly it, so it was mostly to correlate between the BE and the BE-for-FE.)

You need structured logs first, so if you've not got that, start with that first.

There's this thing called "OpenTracing", which I hear is a sort-of standardization of this, but I've not had time to investigate it.

I'm curious what has led you to believe ADHD is over-diagnosed. I can point to a few papers that indicate ADHD is under-diagnosed in certain population slices, like adult women.

I'm also wondering why you believe doctors are writing scripts for ADHD medications willy-nilly, then sending patients on their merry way. In my experience, the opposite is true:

When someone with ADHD moves across state lines in the US, their new general practitioner doctor typically needs confirmation from an in-state psychiatrist (MD) before they'll write a prescription - even if you've been taking the same medication at the same dosage for years prior. GPs sometimes require that the patient be undergoing therapy too, which is a lot to coordinate on top of a cross-state move. Therapists are also licensed at the state level.

This isn't because GPs are trying to be hard-asses, but because there are strict federal regulations on prescribing ADHD medications in the US.
Thank you. But I was wondering if there is any reputable text book that I can read front to back that will give me a good overview with examples. Connecting ABI in relation to MSVC, GCC and System V as the sibling comment mentioned. I have use MASM before, and I am not sure if NASM manual contains what I am looking for - but I'll take a look.
These questions highlight the overwhelm that users can feel as they're getting started with Nix. The Nix ecosystem is so replete with divergent possibilities that navigating it can absolutely play into paralysis by analysis, and lead users to hesitate to learn more because they don't know where to start or which competing tools in the ecosystem are more suitable or more likely to be 'the future'. That is an experience of floundering for sure.

But in terms of contributions, capabilities, and userbase, the Nix lately been subject to impressive and exciting growth that you mention. I think the best is yet to come, but it's already fair to say that Nix is flourishing.

The community and the codebases also do have growing pains, of course. But I don't think that Nix is floundering at all.

Show HN: Pandera – An open source data testing framework for data science and ML
Hi HN,

I'm excited to share Pandera, an open source framework for data testing, built for data scientists and ML engineers:
https://www.union.ai/pandera

I’ve been working with data and building models for a decade, and one of the biggest pain points for me is working with low-quality data. I got burned by incorrect data types and unexpected values so many times that I built a Pandera to help you safeguard your pipelines from silent data bugs.

You can create schemas for your dataframe-like objects, which can be validated at run-time, in your unit tests via property-based testing, or in your type-linting hooks via mypy.

Give it a try here: https://pandera.readthedocs.io/en/stable/try_pandera.html
