Some people know about Linux but aren't going to touch it and there are some that touch it but wish nothing to do with it when they aren't configuring servers. It's not necessary limited to Linux, some people use Macs when they work on PCs at the office, but the greater question is what would switching Linux provide to the switchers when you claim, "It should answer the needs of the vast majority of people". If my car is fine for my transport needs, why would I buy a truck?

Do you have refereneces to NeRF papers that can directly compute the field in the latent code? Because it NeRF based methods are essentially performing solving the rendering equation to learn the mapping, what could be alternative equation for directly learning latent code? Your idea is interesting, could you elaborate on it!
It's the best kind of correct, yes.
The law does allow for adjustment of status to Permanent Residency (and subsequently citizenship) for Immediate Family members of US Citizens/PR.

I made the mistake of not immediately downloading and backing up a book I "purchased" from Apple's Book Store. When I went to download it some months later I found it had been removed from the store and could no longer be downloaded. No refund was offered.

I had expected it to work like Apple's App Store, where as far as I can tell you can generally still download apps you've purchased (although older apps often do not work with newer devices and/or iOS versions.)

Since then I've moved to PDFs or Kindle. If Amazon pulls the same trick I may have to rethink my strategy.
Honest question: isn't it a stroke of the pen that then must be executed? The proclamation is a very short read and what I got from it is that now things need to be "administered" and "developed" and "reviewed". Maybe these things require a little more coordination, planning and capacity than you're suggesting?
> Build scripts that fail and return 0 are my nemesis.

I was also once party to an argument caused by a developer who thought that non-zero exit codes were an acceptable way to communicate success states. I suspect that he may have been trying to communicate different success conditions, but I couldn't tell you for certain.
Something something pandemic means kids aren't seeing their friends so they need social media to fit in. This is what I usually hear. I know people say to just parent your kids, but the right choice isn't always obvious
an activist tool court would have made a 3-part legislative like framework for banning abortion nationwide.

it didn't do that, it returned the question to the legislatures.

I can agree that is disruptive, and dangerous for actual individuals, because the legislature never reached consensus. I can agree that several of the justices lied in their confirmation hearings for the goal of applying logic to an abortion case. I can also agree that its a job for the legislatures.

I’m aware of the ultimate goal of the people that approached it this way - find the most compliant way to get their way - I think that way was unguarded because the democrats are barely even competing. But it is disingenuous to focus on the idea that its an odd ruling when it isn't. Its near the average of time that cases get overturned, not an improbable reality, and the reasoning wasn't a stretch of the imagination at all if you actually read it.

I don't even see how that observation needs to look like a partisan perspective. So many legal journals have pointed out how odd and shaky Roe and Casey were, for Supreme Court rulings, for decades. People just didn't want to have that conversation and now its been hoisted on them after generations.
Going Phishless: How We Deployed WebAuthN with Okta and Yubikeys
On the one hand, you’re right. I fight this battle in my mind all the time. When I’m happy with MacOS I’m not terribly tempted to go back to Linux and live with the quirks.

But the way Microsoft abuses me every day with its constant invasions that can’t be disabled, and worse: Windows Storage Sense deleted my personal files from my computer. It’s right there in the logs.

So yeah, Windows is out for me. macOS survives a while longer, certainly while my machine feels like mine.

But I really do think something like FOSS operating systems have to survive for people. It’s great that the cloud is run on it, but it’s far too controlled by corporations, and more than a decade ago.
Had a similar thing on my iRiver H340, running Rockbox, device had no network at all. Those were the days.

Pardons can not apply to _future_ crimes. So it only affects those currently convicted. People can still be charged/convicted of the same crime moving forward.
Wow if these were "classic" mistakes when this was written in 1996, they're positively antique now. We've made so much progress in being able to build more complex things and yet we're still humans often making similar mistakes again and again. Software is hard.
> It's a stroke of a pen. There's no process or negotiation involved; he just methodically slow-walked it for electoral considerations.

Right, my point is that while you bemoan what this says about Biden, I am encouraged about what this says about the electorate. Who would have thought that this would be a politically savvy move 10 years ago? I will gladly take every other October becoming “get rid of laws we should have gotten rid of 50 years ago” month.

I cannot wait until someone says that future President X doesn’t really believe in copyright and patent reform, and that they’re only strengthening fair use protections and eliminating software patents because it’ll help them in the future election.
I learned that there isn't a single person currently in prison under this old law. The press isn't making that clear. Turns out Biden is merely expunging these convictions from people's records.

That is substantial since these convictions can limit career opportunities and present obstacles from doing many things. But no one is getting released from jail over this action.
Yes these are the coils used for excitation and reading. But really what you hear are the gradient coils inside the magnet assembly.
Library or school in a remote village. There are computers (usually old computers), there might even be a LAN of some sort, but no internet (or very slow internet).

In those cases having local access to Wikipedia (and not necessarily just en; Kiwix has archives for all the languages) can be a great learning resource and reference.
There is also CDPedia, a project from Python Argentina originally intended for making Wikipedia available in rural schools without Internet connection.

Uh, yes? The naïve Windows user has Windows Defender scanning downloads to offer at least some token protection against known threats.
Would you find it less surprising if the let command behaved differently than most other commands, and didn't stop the program if it returned a non-zero exit code?

Because, this example works exactly the way I would expect. The next one (using the double parentheses syntax) is more questionable, and I could see it going either way, and would either look it up in the manual, or put an `|| true` after it to be safe. The fact that it changed in a minor release is pretty bad though.
> I don't feel that static typing offers much benefit for most programs I work on.

Maybe for example you have a good memory and I don't (I certainly don't). I forget things so quickly that it's always a huge hassle for me to be productive when I have to use e.g. python. That's just one example, there are surely other different traits of people that make them prefer one over the other.

Another one is that I really hate to write documentation and tests, except for very highlevel ones (UATs and high level documentation). The reason is that it gets outdated quickly and I don't like to keep it aligned. With types, they are automatically always aligned (the compiler forces me to) and it's easy to do so because there's lots of tooling for refactoring types.

Maybe other people actually like that part of the job and hence don't feel that a typesystem is helping them much.
I totally understand the reason why it is made for read-only consumption. However, we live in a moment where storage is significant cheaper, and so is processing. There could have a compromise, though I do not see any indication of such. SQLite could very well be used here.
It's a pretty bizarre use case, why would you need the second if statement, you already are in logic based on the return code

I can't think of an example of the if statement being confusing that isn't relying on $?
I sincerely doubt the 10x brain surgeon talks only about brain surgery in their downtime. I would assert that a true 10x person is smart enough to maintain good work-life balance.

There is an infinite pool work you can do. Smart, real 10x’ers understand what is a priority and are smart enough to pack their shit at the end of the day, go home and do nothing at all with their work.
This can be applied to anything that gives us comfort. I take the view that we do these things because of a deep psychological knowledge that we will die.
There's a book called The Denial Of Death. It's speaks all about how a lot of choices we make (almost all) once you still down deep enough, are because we are creatures who know the power of our own minds but also are aware that we will die one day.

Another way to think of it is, we have kinds that can imagine and simulate anything. We are practically gods in our own minds. The tragedy is that we have this power but will sooner or later die. This is a tragic a deep realization we all have.
I was just talking to my wife about it. Her opinion is that fish in the US is more expensive than chicken and more comparable to beef in that cheap fish is similar in price to cheap beef and expensive fish like expensive beef.

Ask HN: Which RFCs do you think most developers should read?
Some RFCs are complex and esoteric, and some are approachable educational, and rewarding even for generalists or non-experts.

As an example I felt that RFC 1034 ("DOMAIN NAMES - CONCEPTS AND FACILITIES") [0] was well worth reading.

Which RFCs do you think most developers would benefit from reading through in their entirety (or close to)?

[0] https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1034
Yes. The Department of Justice. I filed a complaint stating the nature of deal may be in violation of antitrust regulation.
They can't but they can and will lie to you and tell you they will deny entry. They also can and will threaten to revoke your passport despite no legal basis to do so. They have made both statements to me. If you read above I said they would make "threats" to do so (of the sort a common citizen would probably believe), not that it would actually happen.
Because they are smart enough to realize they could make a shitload more money in their current occupation and treat their cycling as a hobby. Often times once you make your hobby turn into an job it no longer is fun. …maybe… never actually tested that theory personally so I don’t actually know if it is true.
Had a conversation with a financial professional just after Jack Welched announced his retirement.

One of the big problems in the UK is that housing is not built like that. In most of the UK it rarely gets below freezing, yet even new homes come with big gas boilers because of how poorly insulated they are, and if you turn it off for half a day, it will get cold inside.

The housing energy certification in the UK is very misleading, as a home built with walls with a U value of 0.25W/m2K is rated as "very good" (the maximum). Where as in my country all new homes built in the past 5 years have required a U value of less than half that - of course that doesn't tell the full picture as need to know how thick the wall is, but you don't see new UK homes with 1m thick walls. Even with the pretty lax requirements, very few new homes in the UK have an A energy rating.

One major issue is that homes are still built the same way as they were 50 years ago with a cavity wall. Facing bricks are porous, so you need to allow water to escape, and the cavity wall is usually open at the bottom and the top (usually into the attic) to allow that. If you were to wrap the interior wall with a layer of 200mm PIR board and ensure it is air sealed, you could have a pretty well insulated wall, but often the cavity is filled with mineral wool pressed tightly against both walls. Then it inevitably gets moist which impacts the material's thermal performance. And that's just one the most basic things, other modern high performance items such as triple glazing, mechanical ventilation and heat pumps are also rare.

A tiny bit, maybe. Those commands usually run as root, at least Windows warns you if the installer wants root.

But I think the main point is that this debunks "whilst files from other sources are never run at all".
I had the exact same thoughts my first time. Everything became HD. I was noticing the smallest of details everywhere. It was kind of nice because noticing the little things became second nature. I had no desire to go do something else other than sit and watch life around me.

>Is this worst-case scenario for linux users any worse than the average-case of windows users downloading an .exe from a vendor's website and running it?

Well in my case, I screw around a lot on my computer. So I end up copying and pasting a few lines of bash code that download god-knows-what because I accidentally deleted the entire /etc/ directory and the howto guide that was the 3rd result on Google says "run this it will totally work".

So at least for me, yes, it's often worse than installing an .exe from a vendor's website.

But I didn't mean to say Linux installs don't tend to be safer than Windows, just that it's not as rosy as the original comment made it seem like.
I'm running Ubuntu on a Framework laptop. I installed Linux because I was too cheap to buy Windows, and wanted to try it out (why not, it's free) but now I've found it's very good. Good enough I won't be installing Windows. This surprised me. So, yeah, give it a shot!

But then cocaine use is in the double digit millions as well. Drug use feels like a public health issue but drug supply is a law and order issue. Would decriminalizing the supply chain help much more than trying to enforce prohibition?

None. maybe its just my perspective but my end users dont really read.
I don't understand? What are these things you have to change?

Your second paragraph mentions changing defaults. Of course software evolves over the decades. You may not like every change, but evolving along is always an option, of you don't want to tinker. Also, most UI config is stored in dotfiles. Upgrading doesn't apply the new defaults to an existing account.
Yep as a programing language shell is weird, I am sure you know this better than me, but I got nerd sniped by your snippet, and want say what I think is happening.

false the command returns 1,
! the command turns a 0 return code into a 1 and anything other than a zero into a 0,
if is vaguely backwards from most languages in that it deals in return codes a rc of 0 is true and anything else is false

in the first case false has a rc of 1 this will execute the else list then the test command 1 is equal to 0(rc = 1 false list) so "msg" does not print

in the second case false(rc 1), !(rc 0), if(true list) now you check if rc is 0, it is and "msg" is printed.

> Layers - Why are artificial neural networks setup as "layers"?

They aren’t all set up like that. It’s a simplification of the effects of the limitations of the speed limits of synapses firing and vs the distances between them.

Spiking neural networks model the propagation more precisely, and have some promise. Their biggest issue is that it’s hard to get training data into an appropriate format for them… and that once you do... they don’t really seem to do better.

Every parent will have different philosophies and every child matures at different rates.

That being said, we have continued to push back the age when our kids have an internet connected device of their own (oldest is a 7th grade / 12yo boy).

Went with an Apple Watch with cellular so my son could text his friends and listen to music. Neither him or his 2 year younger sister can be on a laptop in private. I use NextDNS to block a bunch of sites. They don’t have any social media accounts.

This sounds draconian. But the stuff kids can stumble upon online is terrible and I don’t buy into the idea that they’ll learn through experience. I think many people don’t realize how under developed a child’s brain is.
Wow are you advocating to hire people for teaching and for evaluating separately? Sounds both interesting and a cultural war ground.
Perhaps I am missing something, but alchemy sounds completely in character with Jung's works.
Never heard of this system. Please can you post a link/source?
Part of the reason I think 21st century automation is different from 20th century mechanization is that when you mechanize jobs, that requires physical machines, and the number of factory workers and mechanics needed to build/maintain those machines scales linear-ish-ly with the number of machines needed. And so mechanized farming got rid of a lot of farming jobs, but also allowed more farms to be built, which required more and more machines, and thus created manufacturing/mechanic jobs.

Software jobs don’t scale like manufacturing jobs. If you automate a particular profession’s work, they’ll lose their jobs, but meanwhile maybe now 10x more customers can afford the service they provide. But now, scaling the automating software to serve 10x the customers won’t require 10x as many programmers, maybe just a couple good devops people to tend the flock.

You might then argue that customers will still find things to want from the newly freed up labor, but I also think we’re going to start being hard-pressed for categories of work where “the human touch” makes a difference, and also where there is room to employ large sectors of the workforce. Add in that customers “new demands” won’t necessarily correlate with the need for human workers, and it becomes easier to see a world where people keep coming up with new wants, and automation keeps swooping in and immediately satisfying the demand.
I just downloaded the legal PDF, opened it up in Preview (took a few minutes) and then did a search for my full name (also took a few minutes). Yup, there I am... All my transactions (amounts and dates). WTF? Why didn't they redact names? This is a leak of personal information right?
Sounds like a terrible experience.

That's fascinating. I really want to "Google stalk" you now to figure out what this could be about.

what antivax people don't understand is that vaccines are extremely well understood, especially boosters for vaccines which have already been through testing.

it's not like a vaccine for a new virus is 100% experiment, or even 1%. a vaccine is like a Rubik's cube; a known thing which you hope is in the right configuration to do its job. if it's in the wrong configuration then you're basically vaccinated against nothing or you are vaccinated against something you didn't need a vaccine for.

once you've built a few million Rubik's cubes you can stop doing human testing and quality control on every single one of them.

like Rubik's cubes, vaccines are made from known and understood ingredients, each with known and understood behaviors.

vaccines are inert to every part of a human body, except the immune system, by design.

vaccines are not an unknown thing, which could be made from any random junk on the shelf, and which may or may not kill you; vaccines are safe.

the amount of scare-tactic half-truth coming from antivaxxers is nuts because they are just repeating stuff they've heard that they don't understand but that sounds super bad on the surface, and then letting their fear override everything else then repeating the half-truth to the next person.
