This is great. I want to see more of the web to be like this. Simple, direct, light, and functional. I've came to learn on this thread alone that other projects such as teddit and nitter exist, which capture this same spirit. I'd like to know if other projects for popular sites exist as well. Someone should make an aggregation of sites and open source libraries like https://github.com/Demindiro/agreper that exist.
The maximum unemployment benefit in CA is $450/week[1], $100k/52 weeks is $1,923/week. Even if Meta paid the full amount of $5.4M per week the net is they are still saving tens/hundreds of millions with the reduction.

> chemo never leaves you the same

For the chemo your friend likely experienced, this is especially true.

Colorectal cancer is often treated with the chemo cocktail, FOLFOX. The "OX" stands for oxaliplatin which causes nerve damage-- hearing loss (less than cisplatin, though), peripheral neuropathy, etc. The second half-life, in the body, of oxaliplatin is 535 months (44 years). And, the platinum remains in a reactive form.

I'd love to hear a professional chime in on if there are ways to speed the elimination. E.g., something like extended/extreme fasting (to free oxaliplatin from tissues) + sodium thiosulfate + blood plasma donation, or something?

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2559818/

Some choice quotes from the link:

"The first elimination half-life (t1/2) for cisplatin was 5.02 months and the second 37.0 months. For oxaliplatin, these half-lifes were 1.37 and 535 months."

"...it was shown that Pt species in pUF were still present in a reactive form."

Edit: just submitted the above article:

What strikes me as unconvincing about interpreting vision as operating on the frequency domain is that anyone can look as a sound wave's spectrogram and understand what it's representing, even if they're totally unfamiliar with graphs in general. I've looked at spectrograms and noticed sounds that I was missing, then looked for them at the right times and frequencies and found them. You may not be able to understand the sound from a spectrogram (e.g. understand words, or melody), but you can understand what it's representing.

If you look at the 2D FFT of a bitmap, the result is completely incomprehensible. You could look at two videos and their corresponding 2D spectrograms side-by-side and not know which corresponds to which.
At this point, who would want to? Genuinely. I haven't any idea. I'm a huge F1 fan and F1 racing there feels like such a bizarre move, and it's one that has almost put me off the sport. Dirty money and F1 go together like mac and cheese but this feels like a new low for them.

> Not true; if housing prices continue to increase, then even without rent it becomes a reasonable investment.

Only if other investments with the amount of capital needed for housing don't produce better results and you can guarantee that there will be buyers of the property post appreciation. There are very few (but they are there) housing markets where real estate has appreciated faster than stock markets or other asset classes and can offset taxes in selling the home. If you're using housing purely as an investment vehicle there's also the risk of a downturn causing real estate prices to decrease due to the low liquidity of housing (compared to, say, a fund).
TLDR: the author thinks accessibility and new UX is more important than mimicking real-world UX.

IMO accessibility does need to be a consideration, VR can be a big help to disabled. That said, I don’t agree that the default should be “remove UX for accessibility”. I’d wager that mimicking the real world is VRs “files and desktops” skeuomorphic analogy that makes it more approachable in the short run to new users. Like other devices, there should probably be an accessibility mode in VR tools. The authors use case seems pretty common (reclining to use a headset) and probably should be handled well at the OS level.
Ask HN: What was your “honeymoon phase” with HN?

Ah, that was a mistake on my part: I'd initially thought it was. Rereading that screenshot, it's clear that it's not a security measure, just trying to help the user set the keyboard up, in which context it makes sense.
Unfortunately, when it comes to performance, the devil is in the details, so even the possibility of stuff that isn't in Darwin means you're doing some reverse engineering.
VR may open up a totally new field that is independent of current games.

The best examples are Echo VR and BeatSaber. Some call them Exergames, but i think "exercise" discredits the amount of fun you'll have.

When the movement of your body itself becomes a major component of the gameplay (beyond gimmicky reload sequences), VR begins to shine. For example, EchoVR has players dribbling, precisely throwing, pushing themselves off walls and even _physically jumping_ to catch a disk.
> The problem with your doctor's recommendation is that doctors recommend colonoscopy based on age, not whether you have any factors that might indicate colon cancer. I have no cancer of any kind anywhere in my family tree and they are always on me to get one.

Wrong. They recommend on both. I had no cancer in my family history but then I got colon cancer (no, I hadn't gotten a colonoscopy before--yes, I was an idiot). As a result, all my siblings' (some of whom are still in their 30s) doctors had them get colonoscopies right away. All negative, thank goodness.

Good luck with sticking your head in the sand.
Not sure if you're familiar with Mike Acton (as mentioned in the article). One of his key points of focus is data-oriented design, and that when designing software, ignoring the architectural realities of the hardware is ignoring one of your responsibilities as an engineer to deliver performant software.

Now, it's possible to argue that writing performant software is not important. The prevailing modern sentiment definitely seems to be "The compiler / interpreter takes care of that". But given his track record of delivering high performant running software, and the trend in computing towards sluggishness, I'm trending more and more towards his camp, than the "don't micro-manage the runtime" camp (which is starting to feel more and more like a thinly-veiled "I don't want to have to think about it").

That's an extremely rose/favorable look towards Apple which is doing everything in it's power to put itself into the relationship between a developer and a customer (to charge 30% and limit, limit, lock, block). Thats very evil.
My best guess:

One proponent of EA did something different from what another proponent of EA suggests is correct (i.e. held a lavish funeral for a family member rather than something more sustainable).

This is a demonstration that when EA creates an internal conflict between what our natural impulses say are correct and the deductions of EA's tenants say are correct, the former is destined to win.
>> Fatal accidents are largely caused by reckless behavior — speeding, drunks, texters, and people who fall asleep at the wheel.

> This is just not really true. Every research on this suggest the opposite.

Can you explain?

In the US in 2020, 30% ( 11,654 ) of fatalities involved alcohol-impaired drivers. 29% of fatalities involved speeding (63% of speeding drivers involved in fatal crashes were not alcohol-impaired).

https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/ViewPublication/...
https://crashstats.nhtsa.dot.gov/Api/Public/ViewPublication/...

What research suggests that fatal accidents are not largely caused by speeding, drunk driving, distracted driving, and falling asleep? It seems like just drunk driving or speeding are involved in close to half of all fatalities.
We did that shit to ourselves with our offshoring and MBA bullshit. China just took advantage of it like any superpower would. America's commercial greed is what will cause it's downfall to China, if anything. Not that I even ascribe to the idea that China and the US should even be enemies, that's just more "red scare" BS.
Ah OK, that makes more sense. I think my main confusion there is that getting twice as effective at spaced repetition doesn't seem to directly translate into learning more — as another comment mentioned, you're still learning the same number of flash cards in the second week, right? What really is the y-axis in the graphs?

> The post is arguing that you should do that AND spend a little bit of time doing spaced repetition, not to only do spaced repetition and nothing else.

From my perspective as a reader, I'm not sure I see either post discussing working through problems and applying your knowledge, but I do think the inclusion of that would make them both much stronger, especially since it seems like you've clearly thought about them from your comments! I do see the mention of reading + spaced repetition and the mention of memory helping math problems in the other post, but I'm not sure I see where you've explored what that active use and problem solving looks like (or how spaced repetition helps).

Again, I think this a great idea, and I don't mean to be negative for the sake of negative — you were asking for feedback on your post, and I figured I'd offer some :)
That may be true. It's also using an open source browser engine, isn't being used to embrace/enhance/extinguish web features, and isn't built deeply into the market dominant OS by a company already found to be using other anticompetitive practices. Don't get me wrong, I'm not nominating Apple for sainthood. They're far from the territory Microsoft was treading at the time.

I don't think the GP is saying the government needs to enforce laws on the usage of the blockchain, in general. Rather, one use of the blockchain is to run a centralized investment bank. In such cases, the government should regulate them just as they would any other investment bank, on or off the blockchain.

I think there is more behind SerenityOS that elevates it above being just another OS project. They've attracted hundreds of contributors and have instilled a unique sense of culture within their community (as an example, going as far to devote an entire GitHub repository to documenting a list of "yak-shaving" yak emojis[1]).

I think that kind of social endeavor isn't something a lot of maintainers can accomplish, not even those with the skills to work on such a project all by themselves.

> The problem with “I’m entitled to my opinion” is that, all too often, it’s used to shelter beliefs that should have been abandoned. It becomes shorthand for “I can say or think whatever I like” – and by extension, continuing to argue is somehow disrespectful.

These people have every right to think whatever stupid stuff they want. We built an entirely country around protecting people's rights to believe whatever ass-backwards stuff they want to believe, because ultimately it is their right to express themselves (even if the expression borders on insanity). The beauty is that we can have scientific discussion separate from these "entitled opinions". Our medical research is not predicated on the New Testament. Our Bible study is not bound by the understandings of modern medicine. Similarly, I think people will always believe vaccines are dangerous, just as we thought that barcodes were the devil and Beanie Babies are worth their weight in gold. Personally, I think that discussion is fine as long as we recognize it as totally distinct from factual, scientific research being done. Maybe that research doesn't refute what other people feel, but it does give a factual basis for future generations to base their opinions on.
Looks like Intel sold their Drone business...to Elon Musk's brother. Interesting development although it seems like they were focused on providing light shows. Explains why we are seeing these light shows at Tesla unveiling events ha!
So this is apparently an "open" (you have to apply) model which outperforms GPT-3 and can be run on 4x3090's. Seems like a pretty big step forward. I'm especially interested that they got it down to INT4 for inference.

The copyright date is 1999. A lot has changed since then in our practices, societal impact, and socioeconomic status.

Maybe it's useful to consider that this code of ethics is what some people in 1999 were thinking about software engineering ethics, and compare&contrast with what kinds of code of ethics for software engineering we could use today.
This falls apart in higher dimensions, but in the example given in the article the two answers only differ because they have different priors. If you repeat the bayesian analysis using the prior \theta ~ N(0, x), and let x go to infinity, then you approach the frequentist answer.

In my opinion, https://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/2272/whats-the-dif... is a better explanation of the difference between confidence and credible intervals.

Editing to add more commentary to my link:

If you've read the link, one of the principal objections of the frequentist is "What if the jar is type B? Then your interval will be wrong 80% of the time, and only correct 20% of the time!"

This is because, if you look at the original numbers, jar B has all types of cookies, and therefore any single draw from jar B can "look like" any other jar, and because other jars have more concentrated cookie types, they are "more likely" answers for each potential sample.

This issue also comes up with the frequentist analysis! If you look at the confidence intervals, they all say "This jar could be jar B". Instead of being bad at detecting jar B, they are good at always considering jar B no matter the evidence – but it's the same uncertainty.

The bayesian version of this objection is "when you pull a cookie with 3 chips your interval is only correct 41% of the time". This is because if we get jar A, we'll probably draw a 2-chip cookie, so it's outside of our confidence interval.

But note that we probably don't really care about the confidence interval or credibility interval. It's basically a hack to take a probabilistic problem and turn our answer into black and white. To say "these hypotheses are valid and these are invalid".

But this is statistics! If you just take the Bayesian approach, and throw out the need to create an arbitrary interval, you can just stop at the table titled P(Jar|Chips). That's all the information you need. If you draw a N-chip cookie, you can use that table to update your P(Chips_2) for a second draw, and you'll get a concrete probabilistic answer. Yes, you have to assume a prior. But frequentist statistics literally can't answer this question! Without a prior, there's no way to turn P(Chips | Jar) into a P(Jar | Chips) to update on, so you can't track your evidence to get better predictions. You just sit there saying "well, my interval meets the criterion even in the worst case".
That's easy, just put solar panels in the receiver!

There's a reason people use everything apps in other countries:

1) It reduces the number of apps you have to download, which in countries where data is expensive for the average person, is a big deal.

2) The proliferation of internet enabled services is still relatively new. So from a branding perspective, it is easier to communicate one service rather than many different services. The US saw a similar phenomenon in the everything app known as AOL back in the 90s.

Also, I wish the author would read any of the work by Mumford regarding technics. Or Ivan Illich wrt the over adoption of specific technologies. Many of the issues I think affecting firms wrt productivity declines vs the lack of well being of employees is something we can probably measure reliably, it's probably more that firms and their shareholders don't really care that their employees are basically burning out faster than their demands on ROI and productivity.
In math, it's common to extend the numbers, but the problem is that most of the times you lose important useful properties. For example in quaternions you add i^2=j^2=k^2=-1, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quaternion but the problem is that ij=-ji, so the multiplication in new set of numbers is not commutative. It's possible to continue extending the numbers adding more fake "roots of -1", but the properties of the operations are even worse.

There are a few ways to add infinite to the operations, and add some operations for them, but the extensions breaks the properties of the operations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinal_number

Physicist use something like what you are proposing, using Taylor and hand waving. I read a few tries to formalize that, but they are just too weird and no one use them. I think the siplest example is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graded_ring that you can use to define ϵ and a number is something like 7.9+3.1ϵ+27.4ϵ^2+... So you have that ϵ is almost like 0, and ϵ/ϵ=1, but 7/ϵ is undefined.

It look hard to make an extension where ?/0=1. I think it's better to be happy with something similar enough.
I built a new PC recently and installed Windows 11 on it. The bluetooth & sound UIs were completely broken. I had two headsets connected, one was displaying as "Default for audio" but sound was coming through on the other one, and for the life of me I could not figure out how to change sound to the other headset. I think it wasn't showing up in the Sound menu despite clearly showing as connected (disconnecting and reconnecting didn't help).

Definitely agree with the sentiment to hold off on the upgrade as long as possible.
That's definitely not how Apple works. They'll just break it if they want to, though the change would probably show up in a beta OS first.
That’s pretty darn mild as far as current day politics go.
