Read about the rat experiments in mazes for an example of how research on this subject would have been done, if it was done properly.
Check out the Delta Debugging paper. There has been a ton of follow-on work (1000+ direct citations), and lots of tools exist.

Here's the citation, abstract and link to a PDF copy:

Simplifying and isolating failure-inducing input
Andreas Zeller, Ralf Hildebrandt
IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering 28 (2), 183-200, 2002

Given some test case, a program fails. Which circumstances of the test case are responsible for the particular failure? The delta debugging algorithm generalizes and simplifies the failing test case to a minimal test case that still produces the failure. It also isolates the difference between a passing and a failing test case. In a case study, the Mozilla Web browser crashed after 95 user actions. Our prototype implementation automatically simplified the input to three relevant user actions. Likewise, it simplified 896 lines of HTML to the single line that caused the failure. The case study required 139 automated test runs or 35 minutes on a 500 MHz PC.

The idea I'm talking about here is an older one that virgin soil epidemics devastated American populations because they were innately susceptible to them, often as a result of genetic homogeneity or something. That's not supported by decades of research into those kinds of questions.

This article is talking about selective pressure as a result of epidemics, which is absolutely a thing.

I considered that too, and eliminated it as a cause. (I was looking around a lot; there was nothing particularly different about my body language.)

Locals should absolutely have the right and power to change their local laws to prohibit Airbnb. However, I'm not going to feel guilty for using Airbnb in places where it's legal, because it's simply a better product than hotels by a long shot (when it works).
Yes. And the balance between under testing and some loss of early treatable detection and over testing with some incurring unneeded operations is a hard one. Everyone tends to the over test side. For some things like knee operations the evidence appears strong that surgery is the worst path to take in most cases. Surgery stems from improving imaging of knee joint tissue. Treatment regimes need to catch up to return to a sweet spot of detection and remediation.

My partner feels her breast tissue calcification detected in improving imaging of annual checks should have been left alone and incurred discomfort and scarring she didn't need, but we both know breast cancer survivors who owe their life to detection and intervention

> There's no point in arguing with literal children

Isn't there? How do we expect them to learn? There is no point in getting frustrated or angry with literal children, but I believe that arguing with them, in the educational and not rhetorical sense, is helpful. Children learn from example, and if the only examples are their peers, then how do you expect them to grow up differently than them?
Maybe you're right. I never bought a PC from any of the name brand 'computer companies' and maybe there's no sense to start now.

Just wanted to compare their Thelio mini PC to my last PC setup in a NCASE M1* Mini-ITX case and found that their 'tech specs' page (intentionally?) lacking.

*NCASE M1 cases are discontinued, but are widely available secondhand.
You still can, but you need hosting in another jurisdiction, owned by a company in yet another jurisdiction on a domain name somewhere else. Seems we are going there as though I believe, like many here, in accessibility, however for free (old) content, this makes little sense and is simply a bad thing.

What if archive.org had to comply to this for all their videos, audio and sites (no matter the language); they can delete mostly everything at that point.

Not to mention: how about games? In game video, game content; many games from the 80s and 90s etc (or current ones but there I do think accessibility should be addressed where possible) can be played by people with certain kind of disabilities if ‘fixed’, but they won’t be or cannot be; they should be removed from the web?
Pay. Productivity. Commuting. The War to Define What Work Looks Like
I don't think I've ever heard people claim that Apple or Musk "can do no wrong". Not even their most enthusiastic proponents. What I do hear from their proponents (including myself) is push-back on provably false claims, conspiracy theories, and opinions-declared-as-fact.

I don't think you'll find many devout fans who will defend Apple's intransigence with the butterfly keyboard debacle. Or how they're marketing ProRes RAW video codecs on a smartphone that doesn't have a USB-C port.

As for Musk, he's just a person. I am impressed by what he has achieved and I greatly admire his work ethic. That doesn't mean I defend the entirety of his character. But his flaws aren't reason for me to avoid rebutting claims which are obviously false, such as claims that he's just a "cheerleader" with no particular skills.

You mention a "track record of over-promising and severely underdelivering" but I wonder if that's just a matter of which parts of his track record you place emphasis on. Far from over-promising or under-delivering, Falcon 9 is an astounding success. Dragon is an astounding success. Starlink is providing a level of service previously unheard of and is now the largest fleet of satellites by an enormous margin.

The Model S was described as vapourware before its release, then it won multiple car of the year awards. The Model 3 was described as vapourware before its release, then it won multiple car of the year awards. The Model Y is currently the top selling car in Germany. I don't recall any of them turning out to be flops or disappointments. The yoke steering wheel was described as dangerous and maybe illegal, and it won't make it to any production vehicles, then it was released and the howls of controversy vanished overnight.

Right now the criticism is focused on claims that Full Self Driving (FSD) Beta is vapourware. For a long time it was described as impossible. And also that it's scandalous how it is taking some years longer to complete than initially estimated. And also it doesn't work. And it is killing people. And it's unimpressive and Tesla's technology is dead last among competitors. Just don't look at YouTube.

I don't know, presumably there are statements in a bank, employment contracts. Take them to a journalist, I bet they would be interested; you could stay anonymous if wanted to avoid NDA trouble.

I think it would be newsworthy! And the fact that it hasn't happened makes me skeptical.

Can I flag my own comment?
Honestly, I don't know if that's a totally fair take. I purchased exactly one game on stadia and have zero regrets (particularly since I'm apparently getting a refund - but that's a bonus, really). I was definitely the target market and it was, in theory, the perfect product for me.

The only problem is I may have been the only person in the target market so that wasn't going to work financially... And even I was going to have an exceptionally low LTV at maybe one game purchase per year (or less). And if they charged a monthly subscription, I'd never do it. So, yeah, terrible business.

But Google's track record wasn't a showstopper for me on a toy. It's different for business stuff like GCP.
1. There's a Slack flatpak based on the .deb distribution. You could also install the .deb directly from Slack.

2. I'm not sure how mandatory flatpak is. I suspect it's optional, but I'd suggest testing removal on a non-essential install before committing to it.

3. The tiling feature is completely optional and can be disabled easily in the settings.

Sums up the majority of whinging about JS you see online. I’m confused what “the front end community” even is.
I am sure I would, however, removing content completely just because you cannot afford to backtrack over 1000s of hours of content to add this requirement is not good and many people with disabilities would agree with that. Why not simply say it only applies to businesses and only for content that was released online after the law came into existence. And then a grace period of 60 days or something. What is wrong with that?

I wish there was an intermediate AH mode. the page is signed but not encrypted.

Or baring that I wish that browsers would ease up a bit and make tofu style self signed certs acceptable.

I really don't like how there is an expire time built into tls sites. Have you ever found someones old site, usually hosted by a university, that just lives year after year like a time capsule. well not gonna happen with tls.

And on the subject of CA's I don't think I trust them any more than a tofu model Have you looked and verified every authority in your CA file? Do you really trust the turkish government to be able to sign for any web site.

Aha! you say, this is why we have cert pinning.

To which my reply is. cert pinning is the tofu model where you have removed all user agency. it is better than the CA model but really sucks from a end user perspective. when thing go wrong, there is no easy way to fix it.
A lot of hai’s is what one end of a polite Japanese conversations sounds like. In my experience Japanese friends speaking casually say it much less, unless one of them happens to be on some extended monologue. From this perspective one reason English speakers use acknowledgement much less is that conversations coded as formal or polite are much rarer.(think how you respond to a desired job offer, chances are you would be very active in frequently expressing positive assent).

I've looked at the clock before, it's been about 5 minutes. That's how I arrived at that value originally, as before needing to drop off my child at daycare I budgeted about 5 minutes to get to the office and was usually just about right. As mentioned, it's less than 3 miles on streets with 40+mph speeds. Sure, sometimes I get stopped on the by one of the two stop lights and it adds another minute and a half to my journey.

And ok, instead of my garage door it's my living room door 15 feet from my car door. Why not make it my bedroom door or shower door while we're at it.
Have you ever thought about bringing that to life?

I had looked into an older version of projectM and the logic is pretty simple overall: use the current frame as a texture and render it to a slightly distorted grid. Then render a new wave on top.

The grid distortion causes all the motion. But the distortion is static over the lifetime of the animation.

A bit more is needed to make it look decent but this was the main loop iirc. A few hundred lines of OpenGL code.

Geiss looks nice, I think it needs more variation on the frame projection and wave drawing.
Pop has pipewire since 22.04 IIRC.
I thought an objective collapse theory was one where the observation (whatever that is) causes the collapse. An observation is necessarily an interaction with the system, where the observer is part of the environment. So if the system is that isolated from the environment, the collapse or lack of it can't be observed. I didn't think it meant the collapse happens after some amount of time like radioactive decay, even without an observation (interaction). Maybe I'm wrong.
Thanks for mentioning it, I'm not familiar with the printing process in general. I learned CMYK is always used in the context of printing, and RGB doesn't have a defined transformation to CMYK, but because I was displaying this digitally I chose to ignore a lot of details. But I definitely wanted to mimic the undercolor removal, which to me meant making the CMY channels as light as possible. I didn't think about gamma at all, there's no CSS filter for it.
Tons of people who spent some time with their friend’s dog recently but did not observe any psychic phenomenon aren’t posting an anecdote to HN right now. This could be as mundane as Littlewood’s law.
BeOS was the other option being considered. It was arguably more advanced and powerful than NeXTStep. But Jean Louis Gassée played hardball thinking he had Apple on the ropes, and they went with NeXT instead.
No one said anything about 'every opinion you encounter', so if anyone is exaggerating it's you (and personally it feels more like you're lowering the quality of the discussion at this point).

In this specific case I'm also incredibly frustrated by the negative language used in these articles. I see the same thing all the time here in New Zealand, despite house prices being completely out of reach of nearly everyone and most young people wondering if they will ever own a house.

I guess it's just natural for those who only see housing as a 'market' to be exploited.
> There are very few bits of software that are more arcane and broken by default than this absolute crapstraction of a platform.

And that is exactly why a more programmable platform would be good! These issues arise in the first place largely because TeX is not easily programmable, so people have to find arcane workarounds to do anything complex in it.
Checkout curiosity stream. I know I will.
Is it easy though? I had a professor do it for his own videos because ‘it is easy’; it is a horror show; everything is badly out of sync etc. I don’t think it’s easy for an average person at all. I am a programmer but I have 2 left hands where it comes to video or photo editing and then it gets expensive fast. People here saying ‘it costs only $150/hr to fix’ probably don’t provide anything free nor have a small business. Throwing 1000s against something that will never make you a penny but is a hobby/something you like because of some lawyers is insanity.

I for instance script my videos, so I have the subtitles already, I just have no way of putting them in so I provide the transcript. Which seems fine for people.
Don’t forget the terrible dynamics at play between having a full head of hair (hair density in terms of grown follicles per unit area to be technical about it) as an obvious signal of youth/health while there’s also the common perception that bald men are better lovers, which is backed up by research and makes obvious sense since the hair loss is (outside of more specific circumstances) caused by testosterone slowly killing the hair follicles on the scalp and higher testosterone levels being well associated with mate selection not just in people but across primates in general!
Maybe they are opening and closing parentheses of a lambda program.
Since this is now a post your favorite MOD music thread, here's one of my old faves: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKMZfPqWpak
i am not happy with my galago pro.

system76 is a name that often comes up when you ask about linux laptops. so i decided to try their galago pro. and i have to be honest here. as a long time macbook user, this is definitely a downgrade for the price. especially when you can get an M1 and a better experience for the same price.

the trackpad is weird and does not work well. i apply too much pressure for my clicks to register. my taps, however, would register with me barely touching the pad, or finger scrolling. i have disabled tapping. and natural scrolling does not feel natural.

now, having page-up and page-down keys above the left and right arrow keys is a bad idea. it gives a bad user experience.

but of course, it's linux, you can remap the keys. you need a handful of commands for that. and since you are on a custom OS, you need to look at the base OSes. lucky me, someone wrote a blog post for ubuntu.

system76's discord is not (in my experience) where you get help. it is full of people who will ignore you. my impression is that they live in a bubble and are all doing similar things. you get the silent treatment for not doing things their way.

not sure what people are happy about with pop!_os. i spend my time looking through ubuntu and debian documentation. pop!_os docs are a series of articles and they are lacking. i am happy with what ubuntu and debian are doing! this custom OS does not make much difference in my opinion.

all that said, i will continue to support system76.
I can't remember the last time I read an article that made me feel more like quitting my career and starting a new one.

Isn't this how a lot of people who read "The Waste Land" for the first time react to it? I'm reading Exile's Return by Malcolm Cowley at the moment, and he writes about the reaction of the generation of younger writers watching Eliot's progress as a potential way forward for them, and being disappointed that with this poem he zigged when they hoped he would zag, so to speak. Doesn't matter to me, I really like it. It's dense and allusive, but a lot of poetry is hard to read without seeming to have much to back it up. This one, I never put down, because it feels like even the parts I don't get have a reason for being that way.
> Especially when some celebrity says some real shit about govmnt,

LOL indeed. Celebrities rarely say "real shit" about the government. They are good at the thing that made them famous. They are... tertiary sources, at best, when it comes to talking about things relating to government. Celebrity didn't give them insight, just a larger megaphon to shout through.

Doesn't matter what their political beliefs are.

I'm probably psyops too.
Apparently native populations had a different immunogenic profile and that made them more susceptible to European diseases such as smallpox, and this was amplified by the lack of any immunity acquired by childhood exposures:

Honestly? I think it would result in a smarter image generator. Part of the problem with the "hope-Authors-Guild-v-Google-is-controlling-precedent" approach is that the data set is extremely noisy. In AI, the training set is gospel, and people are almost certainly overfitting their models. DALL-E 2 is suspiciously familiar with how to draw Getty Images watermarks, for example.

Man, if I knew how half this training software worked, I'd be downloading the whole image set today and shoving it straight through my poor aging 1080 Ti.
Pretty strange isn't it. I would think that headless server is #1 deployment for ubuntu, but out of 4 headline features only one is for this usecase and it's for a different product by Cannonical. Boring is good, but is there actually nothing interesting happening?
Wouldn't you first want to prove that psychic abilities exist at all and if you planned to do that use humans.

At worst it promotes bad science. To form the hypothesis that psychic powers exist where's the observation?

Very cool. I was ready to be annoyed, frankly. None of these tools sound like the right tools for the job. But I am impressed at how far the tooling is along.

Linus is the fuckin man, I love this guy. His demos inspire me to no end.
IF Lina had to be an extant member of the Asahi Linux project, it is much more likely that she would be Hector (marcan); Lina and marcan had identical dev environments when she first started making videos and Lina’s introduction to the Asahi Linux YouTube community was her “hacking” one of Hector’s streams.
