Do you want the operating system to prevent an app to read/manipulate the pixels of a raster image submitted to it? No, thanks. I would avoid instead any app that forces me into doing something that I don't want to do. Detecting screenshots is just one of the many abusive behaviours that most users accept when they register to those services. The same technology that they abuse enables a lot of useful things. Blame the services, not the tech.
I don’t know how to ask this neutrally, but how did you (and a doctor?) come to use an anti cancer medication for mood stabilization?
> The problem with Scrum is that it usually works. In tech, we hate that. What we like is to give talks, prepare slide decks, and, most importantly, to invent things ourselves.

I've never seen Scrum works well in the last 10 years since I've heard of it.

No amount of BS scrum consultants is enough to make it work.
The first sentence of the article makes it very clear they’re speaking of a slowdown in the rate of growth.
You're not really addressing the claim, which is whether or not Scrum actually works, i.e. is an improvement over any other method. I am not aware of any empirical, experimental or theoretical justification.

Anything you currently practice can be used as a yardstick. However, I don't think that practitioners should be spending time on this research. That IMHO leads to exact problems that the article whines about.

The idea that retrospectives are akin to scientific method is laughable. Maybe in 18th century that would fly, but there is lot more to scientific research than "continue doing what works and change what doesn't" (at the very least, following observations without theory leads to cargo-culting, which actually sums up the overall Scrum experiences pretty well).
My issue is less with the strategy as NN optimisaiton, and more as the OP says, a road to general intelligence.

There's an a priori "limit" on the form of any time/space complexity "intelligence" can have: it cannot be exponential.

We know that if you exhaust all infinite number of ways of describing a system by facts (/data), then you don't need intelligence. Whatever intelligence is, it's a strategy animals use for competent action in the face of their bodies not being able to exponentially expend energy to solve every trivial problem.

Exponential complexity is a killer to the project of building intelligence in every respect. The universe, a priori, cannot require an exponential space complexity description of it to be parsable: since that would require exponentially many universes.

Exponential scaling, for me (via ordinary conceptual analysis), seems a hallmark of any system not using intelligence. Exp. scaling is "the shortcut" to solving the problem without intelligence. It's the hallmark of the system not building O(log_{large number}) rich representations of the world.
Ask HN: Is There a Way to Filter
Yep, but the issue (in the specific case of the homeless) is that the devices (and the - let's call it "optional" - SIM/local cell phone number) are lost/stolen, the written down emergency/recovery codes may work IF the other idea (luggage deposit) is implemented, let's call it EPBD (Essential Personal Belongings Deposit).
Ask HN: Is Django a good choice as a framework for starting up in 2022
Hi,
I'm looking to build my startup currently as a solo founder and am stuck on deciding which language/platform to build with.

I have about 5-6 years of experience with Flask websites and a few months of experience in Django.
Django does make a lot of the boilerplate stuff easy, but there's a learning curve with FormView, ListView etc. However the code is cleaner since I don't need to have dozens of endpoints.

I've also considered learning React and have built a small prototype but my productivity is way lower since I'm still learning the nuances.

Has anyone here had experience maintaining Django long term? How has it worked out for you?
Is it very expensive from a server/hosting perspective?
Is it hard to maintain later?
Will I regret choosing Django later?
Mullvad shows that it is possible to receive anonymous payments (eg by non refundable cash by mail)

Signal could use payments (eg via Monero) as spam prevention and revenue stream.

This would not damage any current feature/user
Do you guys also use scrum poker? I always found that one of the most hilarious exercises.
You need to track not just population but the amount of people who need the service. If population becomes older (which is generally the norm in a developed country) or otherwise less healthy (which may well be the case considering environment and food pollution) then even keeping the same number of people still requires the budget to be increased appropriately in order to be able to cover a given user equally well.
I'd like to see power consumption numbers.

Something with vents is probably wasting 10-15 watts all the time. And over the decade you'll probably have this, it will cost far more electricity than the purchase price.

But without power consumption figures in typical usage, It's kinda pointless to talk about the price at all.
I agree with the suggestion Data and Reality. Also, just reality.
Ask HN: Is there a way to filter Lex Fridman out of his interviews?
Or perhaps someone already done that and there is a repository out there with the podcast's guests answers/comments only, without the usual 'oh brow, thats awesome' from Fridman.
Hackers were able to get at least one person via the Twilio hack in OP's article (which wouldn't have happened if Signal was not reliant on phone numbers). So I wouldn't say Signal is great for life-or-death either. And afaik the Matrix vulnerability we are discussing was not actually shown to have been exploited
I would argue that him not liking far right people is a good outcome rather then bad one. Him becoming far right too would be the worst outcome possible.

Because then far right would become bigger and that is catastrophic for their targets. Far right has victims, a lot of them.

Becoming friendly with far right by moving closer and closer to them while ignoring victims is wrong strategy.
GPL is on phones, every Android phone runs Linux kernel and many apps use GPL'd libraries. The problem is that the vendors often don't respect the license, and increasingly are locking down the devices so that even if you do get the source code, it's not much use in terms of applying your own modifications.
I’m currently leading a low intensity war with a 7x4 meter patch on my property. The best strategy so far is turning a small portion of the patch into a lawn and letting the robomower take care of it. I’m making slow but steady progress and in 5-6 years I should be done.

Unlike the font in the linked example, your font is actually legible. Good job. The lowercase in the link is virtually unintelligible unless you really squint.
Snow Leopard really was the peak. Is there a list of all the Macs that can run it?
Intel x86 will make even greater leaps in the future. The eCores (where they added more this generation, but no (?) pCores) are as small as ARM cores and the saved die space can be used for chaches (Intel already increased caches again on Raptor) for performance and power efficiency (as Apple shows). Then there will be 5nm which is a big reason for Apples Perf/Watt performance.
I think YC knows better than you do. If you think you're so smart, then you start your own incubator and see how that goes. Maybe you can get a multiple unicorn company by starting someone off with $1. That's realistic.
The junior devs make mistakes. The PR should be a platform for learning from the senior. Therefore I don't understand what lesson is the junior supposed take from this action:

> I let it go and know that I'll refactor it when I next touch that code

You accept it and then you rewrite it. Simple but as a dev, I would feel let down by the fact that my work was just temporary. This would make me bitter not more experienced. Also, I didn't learn what was the problem so the same situation make repeat.

If you discussed your opinions talk with the PR authors, then it's them who should rewrite the code, not somebody else.

Do you agree with this?
How? Provide evidence please.
> This is highly inflammatory and disrespectful language and some might see it as trolling to get us off topic.

Only in the US it is. The rest of us agree.

I know it's a big place in its own right and opinions differ inside the US too; I'm sure I'm not the first who, when adding all these peculiarities up, come to the conclusion that many or most Americans just don't like/trust their fellow Americans. So much seems to be about keeping others away, down, invisible, out or even dead.
Based on Google documentation you can still turn off 2fa, so we are weighing the account security of the hundreds of millions of users who would never turn on 2fa but really should, versus the people who lose their 2FA verification method and are locked out of their account. Maybe the harm of not being able to login is worse than having your identity stolen but whose to say.
Despite the bombastic title, it’s just a plant - it needs water, nutrients and the right amount of CO2.
There's no NII format, that's the file extension of a format called NIfTI.

NIfTI is not meant to be a replacement for DICOM. It's meant to be a quick and simple file format only for neuroimaging and only for research. It's missing countless features that are required for clinical use and it stores 3D data. So it's not a good format for xrays, ultrasounds, etc.
Lufthansa and other airlines have also been sued for this practice and lost. I guess it depends on the case but it seems ridiculous, if I leave my starter at a restaurant they then refuse to deliver dessert and yet charge me for it! Clearly that is bonkers and illegal and the exact same thing. Read the 2015 EU consumer rights act for details…
Or you can take over the media and repeat the same message over and over hitting the emotional keys in our monkey brains. Propaganda works very well.
There is no right or wrong since nobody actually knows when Jesus was born. The Bible is inconsistent regarding the birth of Jesus, so the calendar had to make a choice.
And this is where the FSF makes the weird trade off that they prefer to not have security updates as that's more "free" than being able to get security updates from the manufacturer. Either way you can't update it, but at least in the scenario the FSF opposes the users are able to be more secure.
Given the top comment I'm not sure this had an intended effect. They were asked a question and quoted the relevant ICAO rules. What were you expecting them to do? Urge their customers to break the law?

If you have to ask this question, it is a sure sign you are not sufficiently socially calibrated to interact with other people on an air-plane. I advise you to invest time into better understanding your fellow humans by learning about psychology.

Yelling would be an overreaction, likely leading to further escalation and diminishing the chance of achieving the goal of stopping the maladaptive behaviour. GP acted correctly to suppress the impulse, I guess in the end he did nothing, which is the next best course of action. Adults are supposed to treat the problem situation in a calm manner and implicitly point out the established social boundaries (this works better if your personality is more masculine than feminine): interrupt the talking person and get his attention, kneel down to the same eye level, state clearly what can be observed what he's doing (having a conversation, perhaps talking loudly), what the effect is (annoying the other passengers), and remind him that calls are not allowed by the relevant authority (flight crew). Firmly direct him to end the call right now. Throughout the conversation keep stern demeanour, keep eye contact and the same level of volume when you speak.

If he complies right away, then mission fucking accomplished, requite by showing approval (nodding, making a slightly more friendly face), or perhaps even something expressing gratitude if that's appropriate in your culture.

The argument "not on a call, this is FaceTime" in an attempt to shift away from the central point of the conversation. Do not let him pull you into his frame. Simply ignore this sentence, keep referring to the call as a call. If he's stubborn, or ignores you, or wants to have a quarrel, then it is okay to metaphorically lose the fight. Walk away and inform the flight crew instead, it's out of your hands now. In the end, it is a certainty that you will win, even if the talking person turns out to be highly neurotic or narcissistic and throws a tantrum.

Pointing out disrespect is not likely to work, the talking person has already shown he does not care. However, shaming is more likely to work, it is a powerful social tool and it is very much appropriate to use here. You could say that all the people around are affected (insert hand gesture here) and they do not approve of what the talking person is doing.

What should not be done is body contact other than touching the shoulder to get attention; trying to take the headphones or mobile device; talking down (literally and figuratively). Do not ask, beg or demand, instead use the appropriate word that comes closest do instructing or directing, use the imperative verb form in your language.
From the second page of the article:

> We tested the switch without any devices attached. It settled in at around 6.5W.

> Adding each successive 2.5GbE link also included an additional 1.5-1.7W or so of incremental power consumption.
> resisting NATO encroachment on Russia,

That one was just a lie. It has zero to do with nato.

It is ideologically against westernization of countries around Russia against their souverenity and for making them authoritarian puppet states responding to Kremlin.

But encroachment by NATO thing is nonsense. It frames Russia as vicrim od nato, but that is not what it in reality was. Even nato enlarging was because countries actively seemed membership, pushed pleaded pressed. Because they have seen nato as only available protection.

I assume that this is a bad translation and the meaning was that the sterilized food is safe for humans, not the ultraviolet light.

The part about the LED looks indeed right, the aluminum gallium nitride LEDs can emit ultraviolet light, but at short wavelength their efficiency was very low, while the new LED with a more complex multilayer structure has improved the efficiency about ten times, allowing them to replace mercury lamps for sterilization purposes.
Fixedsys Excelsior?
If you use a popular instances your account will show up in searches, likes and other things.

But when using an independent server, one would need to type your full username, and then try and see if such an account exists.
if you only type the display name, or username without the server address, nothing will show up.

Which is fine for chat apps like Matrix or E-Mail, but not for platforms where discoverability is important.
I get Nordic Naturals and just eat the oil, it actually tastes pretty nice and you can taste if it’s rancid and not consume it. Sure it’s very slightly fishy but not in a horrible way and mostly is somehow quite enjoyable with the lemon flavour they add.

> You can just emulate it and it's fine.

Not quite.. Apple also had to modify ARM on the hardware side to support x64's stronger memory ordering. But RISC-V has options for both I think.

For an attempt at doing it without modifying the hardware see Microsoft's slow emulation attempt on their ARM version that was rejected by consumers and increased battery consumption much more.

Ask HN: Best book to learn C in 2022?
I know a few other languages but have really been wanting to learn C. I see a lot of books all with a lot of praise and it's difficult choosing one.

Any recommendations?
That is true, and indeed what happens with some passive index funds, for example.

However, from my experience, when looking for profits, people tend to prefer to arb inefficient markets before they choose to work on larger scales. So if one can choose between charging more than one provides, or charging "fairly" but at giant scales, the first step of the evolution will be the arbitrage.
For Best Results, Forget the Bonus
I always find it hard to trust articles like this. Call me cynical but in the opening paragraph the author clearly states that they make their money from other algorithms that lose money.

They therefore have a vested interest in filling the market with more such suboptimal algorithms that they can exploit for profit.

I remember getting a copy of QNX “Proton” (?) on a cd-rom with a Danish computer magazine in the late 90ies. About the same time they distributed Red Hat Linux (5.2/Hedwig) and BeOS. I don’t recall if the QNX desktop was actually installable or if it was only a ram-disk. I remember it as blazing fast.
This feels very much like a post that will be followed by a future post titled: "Lessons learned losing 200k in a flash crash". These sorts of systems and models often work until they don't. Often, there is a hidden risk that isn't hedged correctly - a black swan event not predicted by the model, or even just an exchange losing funds after a hack.
I think you're serious!

If you are, then a contract that does not do what you expect it to do is buggy, by any possible definition of the word.

Otherwise, well done!, you fooled me.
More like humiliating. And like most Scrum terms, absolutely zero to do with poker.

They should rename it "Scrum Auction", as all it ever devolves into is some morons overselling their capacity and shooting themselves in the foot regarding any chance at cleaning the codebase.
Watch notifications are a positive for me, _after_ I disabled all but the apps I care about (plus, in messaging apps I muted all but the persons I need to communicate with in real time). Every time I get a notification and the Watch is not on my wrist I am annoyned by the phone vibrating on the desk, or wherever it is.

In any case, I wear it mostly for the health monitoring. Notifications as described above are a benefit for me, but I would probably not wear it for that alone.

Never being able to achieve financial security or wealth.

I live in a shabby house, and never feel I can afford anything whilst also trying to save for old age and knowing it will be an improverished life.

I've never been able to figure out how to make enough money to not be a salary slave. The fear of job loss and having to work til I die doing work I don't enjoy (and having no idea what else I could do and still keep a roof over our heads) is crushing. Every day.

And then I see folk succeeding in every financial way, buying; building and refurbishing homes, holidays, cars, socialising, clubs, private healthcare, private schools, private tuition, retirement, none of which I can do for my wife and son.

45 now and my body, brain and brain hurt from chasing a salary each month that's just enough to keep me going for the next month.

Excuse me, but do you believe this is "normal"?

I mean, if you returned 287/602=48% of the items you ordered, either there is something wrong in what you order or - more likely - your supplier (Amazon) is not reliable.

On the other side, if 48% of items (particularly if low value ones) are returned, the costs of shipping/returning/handling must be enormous.
