Have you tried blood/tissue based comprehensive genomic profiling testing ? This might help understand the genomic determinants of the tumor, possibly helping the treating physician make an informed decision on treatment choice.
I think you're right about the single commodity server, but just to refine the numbers a bit: the MetroCard is used on the subway, all NYCT and MTA buses, all PATH trains, the Roosevelt Island tram, the AirTrain, and Westchester's Bee-Line.

Put together, the daily weekday ridership is probably closer to ~14M, pre-COVID. And that's not including some of the knock-on computational costs, like the radio network that links the MTA's buses or the in-system transfer rules.
I feel like Python 3.10 is large dependency -- almost no one would use it unless required.
FUD is a perfectly valid precaution where there's reason to be fear, uncertainty, and doubt.

FUD is only a bad thing where there's no motive, precedent, and reason for those three - which is hardly the case here.

Like, "This new roommate of yours might be a killer. Sure looks like one. And who can trust a man that doesn't have a Facebook page?", is bad FUD.

But "Two ex-girfriends of this new roommate of yours have been found murdered in the woods, each a few years after they split. And I saw rope, duct tape, a set of hunting knives, plastic gloves, and a bottle of chloroform in the trunk of his car. Plus, when he got drunk he went on and on about how he likes this Dahmer tv-series. I think he might be a serial killer and you should be careful around him", is very reasonable FUD.
Perhaps the problem is that the investor don't consider the backend+webpage a MVP, they expect to see at least a few hosts and guess using the service.

I don’t know as manager what should I do , I asked the girl and she doesn’t remember anything

Viator is not a terrible place to book, but there are many alternatives. A good travel agent or hotel concierge can deal with this for you, and also advise you about guides.

Context Travel consistently offers a quite high level of guides, with a more in-depth educational focus https://www.contexttravel.com/cities/rome

You can go very deep into this, for places like the Colosseum or Vatican you can find hundreds of guides with very different focuses.

My very limited understanding of DIMM training is that it's about the digital system learning and setting the precise analog timing settings required to talk to the DIMM. Every memory cell has tiny manufacturing differences and so these need to be learned on the fly at computer boot and they change over time with use so need to be re-determined every boot.
I don’t thing the current Supreme Court is going to rollback federal regulatory capability of streams and rivers (which is where the fish actually are). The current case in questions, and the legal issue involved revolves around the question whether the federal law granting the federal government ability to regulate “waters of the United States” was also meant to enable the executive to regulate wetlands that are not actually connected to any navigable waters. In any case, even if Supreme Court reinterprets the existing law more narrowly than the federal executive had, the federal legislative will still be able to pass new legislation to grant the executive all these capabilities right back. This case is better thought of in terms of limiting the ability of administrative state to promulgate new, substantial laws, rather than the ability to regulate the waters or wetlands themselves.

If you find this article interesting, I highly recommend reading “The Dawn of Everything” by David Graeber and David Wengrow.

They also dig into these new archaeological discoveries, and start to reframe some aspects of the historical record in a way that is deeply compelling and perspective shifting.

I’m still in the middle of reading it, but I can’t help but feel that it’s one of the more important books to come into existence in recent times.

I don't know this author and I don't know where they pulled these numbers from. It comes across as "Strategic Nuclear War Planning for Dummies."

- Ukraine isn't in NATO and won't get in before this war concludes with Putin losing. No NATO, no automatic aid, and no WW3.

- The US is outspending Russia's entire defense budget by orders-of-magnitude with HIMARS for Ukraine (artillery: the god of war). It's only a matter of time before Putin's military refuses to take orders.

- Putin's generals would sooner remove him that start WW3 beyond a few tac nukes.

- Tac nukes aren't going to start WW3 except push Russia further beyond DPRK pariah status. Lots of fallout, lots of people will need to move out of the way in a hurry depending on the winds, but brinksmanship escalation by the West would be suicidal/omnicidal.

- Putin is seeking a 1989 do-over and resentment over Afghanistan, but it's going to follow a similar result. Putin is, in recent years, doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

- Putin likely has cancer since an oncologist has been following him around.

- It's plain to read the nonverbal communication of Putin's inner circle whenever they appear on camera: they're wondering how they can get rid of him. Putin's altered mental state is somewhere between 'roid-rage, low T grouchy old man, and cabin fever from living in a bunker in the Urals separated from society for too long. Unstable crazy person with nukes.

The likelihood Putin will be arrested or assassinated when he tries to order a nuclear strike seems the most likely conclusion.

That's a really fat side-channel if you can extract it with minimal noise.

You should be able to extract time and also location based up the waveform.

And I think that it should also be possible to use baseline expectations for known channels to reduce the noise of the extract.

If the pay only lasts for a year, you might reconsider it as a career path.
It depends how useful you think the patch is, and maybe also how likely you think it will get merged.

In most cases I simply keep my fork as a PR and use the package either by vendoring or directly from the repo. If anyone else encounters the same bug, they will see my PR referencing the issue, they can do the same.

If many people are encountering the bug and using the package, and/or if the project seems dead, then it's a good idea to publish. You can do username prefix or you can just add "2" at the end. I've seen this for other repos, This is what https://crates.io/crates/zmq2 did while https://crates.io/crates/zmq was inactive, though the latter's maintainer became active and merged what the former's maintainer had done - you can see there is no animosity or anything.
I'm not even talking about the module support. (It just seems to have the default support of TypeScript.)

Yes, it imports the module. No, it doesn't do even basic type inference (knowing that Foo is a class and consequently allowing it to be used as a type name) - which it would, if it was a superset of JS. Instead it seems to import everything as "any", which is... a start, I guess?

The OSI's definition is less and less useful nowadays as the term has taken a life of its own, just as the meaning of any other piece of language. Sure, something like Stable Diffusion has a few license terms that make it OSD noncompliant, but they aren't nearly onerous enough to make referring to it as "open source" untrue as the term is understood by the vast majority of speakers.

> France and the netherlands have good roads and yet they dont constantly have to maintain them.

Yes they do. In the Netherlands there's a lot of maintenance going on. Once on a trip to my workplace at the time (75km away) I counted 12 individual speed restrictions due to roadwork. I constantly had to switch between 120, 100 and 70kph. Most of it happens during the night though. I guess Germany doesn't always do this.

> Also renting and the government stepping in to keep rents at a low price sounds like poverty and socialism to me. Not a good sign.

I personally like socialism and many in Europe do. The richest countries have the best welfare systems in general (like Scandinavia). Holland itself is an unfortunate exception with its Anglo-Saxon liberal model.

It's becoming more important as the housing market is out of control and buying a house is near impossible now on a modal salary. Regulation keeps pricing fair to those who need it. It's not a sign of poverty but of the systemic choices we make.

> But speaking of driving in germany i found the constant tailgating and the general aggressiveness and flashing similar to east europe 10 years ago. Horrible driving culture.

This is something we do agree on :) I try to avoid driving in Germany.
I encourage you to.

HNers and SV tech bros have a generally disordered view of food from my perspective. I think I'm a little sensitive to it because many in my family and wife have had eating disorders.

Food is for enjoyment as much as sustenance. Focus on learning to cook and having a joyous relationship with food of all types. If you start with rules and numbers, you're missing the forest through the trees imo.

Do you mention Stripe by name, or the concept of a payment processor at all?

Sometimes when I’m on with CS, if I let it slip that I know a little something about what’s wrong they take the easy out and send me on my way by regurgitating what I just said as the solution.

The average person doesn’t know anything about Stripe or payment processing. I find it hard to think Amex would steer you that way out of the blue.

Is Amex really saying “here’s a phone number to some third party, resolve it yourself”? Totally unprompted?

I would call in and pretend to be as dumb as possible. All you know is you keep getting charged and you don’t want the charges anymore. The business phone number you have is disconnected. Let them take it from there.
Society has limits on what an adult can and cannot do. Go try to own a nuclear weapon and see what happens.

In 1930-something, my grandfather built a passive radio to use on his family farmhouse without electricity.

Ask HN: How to objectively assess whether I should get plastic surgery?
Hi HN, throwaway account because friends and employer read HN. I'm trying to figure out whether I should get plastic surgery (I have a specific procedure in mind ) in the most "HN" way possible, i.e., trying to be rational, evidence-based, data-based, etc.

Re the specific procedure and doctor, I've done my own research. I think it's safe and it will improve my looks. Of course, it also has some costs (it's not risk-free, economic cost, post-op, etc), which I believe I have considered appropriately, and I believe the pros outweigh the cons. The question I pose here is more general.

My therapist opposes this decision. My friends, including the female ones, say I don't need it (My family doesn't know (and won't know) about it but would strongly reject it). However, I feel they can't be objective about it, and they would oppose it even if I was the most hideous living being in the planet.

Now, what do you think should be the methodology or data to look at to decide whether I should do it? Because the reason I want to do it is because I see myself as ugly. But if I had some kind of dysmorphia, I would also see myself this way.
Do you want to be a maintainer or a contributor?

I recommend to pick a project you are already using and you like. Send bug reports and look how/where they fix them. If you know how to fix it, try to send a pull request.

If you have a feature you like, try sending a pull requests. Start with small improvements, like 1 or 2 days of work. You never know if your change is in the vision of the maintainer, or it breaks something or the maintainer is just a moron. Be prepare to fix your PR because each project has it's own secret weird rules. Spaces or tabs? Did you add tests for the fix/feature?

What's a dash?
I’ll try to add some food for thought: customer service agents and their managers do not know everything. In fact, most of the times, they do not actually know how the products work. They just know what they’re told and they’re only told what they ask. But if they don’t know what to ask, then they can get caught in a situation where they just default to blaming you or someone else so they can close the ticket.

Your best bet is to get in contact with someone who is in sales who can escalate this to an engineer or other more technical person. One way to do this may be to declare that you will tell your customers AMEX is no longer acceptable unless they help you resolve the issue. This may seem harsh but I bet it would work at AMEX and not a VISA or Mastercard
I think the model was ultimately pretty successful, with the primary example being the World Wide Web. The biggest reasons for the NeXT's failure was the decline of 68k coupled with rise of Windows IMO.
nop, no agenda

also the reason I use "climate crazed" instead of idk. climate activists is because I do not mean climate activists. I also _do not_ mean climate activists which use more extreme measurements and are sometimes portrayed as crazy by the media.

But there are people which have gone beyond any form of logical reasoning in all kinds of movements. This including climate related movements but also pretty much any other bigger movement asking for a lot of change. And there had already been cases of people attacking German train infrastructure "because trains are to expensive and as such partially at fault of climate change". And just because this people are beyond reasoning wrt. their ideological believes doesn't mean they are stupid or incompetent.

Through it wasn't the bast choice of an example. Thinking about it it was a very terrible choice for an example.

EDIT: Also using crazed was a bad word choice, too.

This is missing the "pdfsizeopt" suite, that bundles statically compiled utilities to reduce size.

Alternatively, figure out how to use GPT-3 in a market that involves some schleps. I'm working on one in Education Tech, building something for a need that teachers have been practically begging for. There are particular regulatory challenges, unique sales paths, and a big first to market advantage because educators aren't online constantly researching their options. Once you're embedded in the education consciousness, you're there for years.

But yes, another random thing GUI for generating marketing copy from GPT3 isn't a good long term play.
If you are designing data structures for a specific kind of storage, you have hopefully studied them beyond the first/second year algorithms and data structures class. Like most introductory classes, that class mostly teaches you concepts and ideas.

My job is largely about designing and implementing new data structures. Those four levels of abstraction are the ones I've personally found useful. None of them deals with implementation details, as they are all abstractions. Implementation details are an orthogonal concept that is relevant at every level.
Thanks!

What's super neat here is that I didn't have to build that. The WASI standard defines `fd_fdstat_get` which tells the binary the type of the file descriptor. For stdin/stdout/stderr I return that it is a "Character Device" (https://github.com/taybenlor/runno/blob/main/packages/wasi-m...). QuickJS understands that means it's running in a TTY and so it emits all the right characters to do colouring. XTerm.JS then interprets those characters and displays the appropriate colours.
yep.

It’s not uniquely American nor is it uniquely Instagram either.

I’m French. My father is French. Decades ago as a kid we were in Paris on a short trip, and we were close to the Eiffel Tower. I asked my dad if we could go there, and he went on this weird rant about it being too touristy and not worth it.

So I didn’t get to visit the Eiffel Tower and I was sad. He wasn’t a great dad.

I still haven’t, to this day. Haven’t had the opportunity. I’m going to Paris in a month for my girlfriend’s birthday and I’m planning to go there. This notion that just because something is touristy you SHOULDNT do it is absurd. Pick what sounds pleasant, and don’t expect to be alone.
This isn’t the way Apple wanted it to work. In a perfect world vendors would write good kernel extensions that were stable and wouldn’t crash a system.

Instead, in the real world we got vendors that wrote horrible and unstable code that was required by IT departments. For example, instead of implementing a firewall using Apple technologies, in a stable manner, we got an “enterprise” firewall kext that would crash whenever a USB network card was plugged in. And I mean crash the computer. My USB-C dock was absolutely worthless because of this exact issue.

Vendors forced this on Apple. IT departments that were primarily Windows shops would just blame Apple instead of the vendor. Because their software worked for Windows, so why was it only a problem for Apple? I know the IT department at my $WORK had this mentality.

Now at least I have a stable system and I don’t miss not being able to add my own kexts.
