I have an iPad Pro M1 11" with the Magic Keyboard.

It doesn't fall off or detach unexpectedly at all. And the keyboard size is close enough to "normal" that I don't notice for normal typing. The only thing I miss is a dedicated ESC key.

All that said, it only replaced my personal laptop. I continue to use a 13" MBP at work.
Passive (pasta) cooking refers to leaving your pasta sit in warm water after having cooked it in boiling water for 2 min. That's 7-10 min less cooking time, which, depending on your daily pasta consumption may not be that much per year.

I wonder what amount of CO2 went into paying people to come up with their smart solution, their dedicated app as well as the marketing costs for this.
The titular upgrade to private browsing is that you can now launch the application directly in that mode and private browsing mode is displayed in dark theme by default. Oh and private browsing mode has a new logo. Exciting stuff.
I mean, yes. The biggest risk on the road is cars. So, moving off roads and dedicated biking infrastructure is already moving the needle a lot.

However, don't under estimate how much you can hurt with a low speed fall from a bike.

Also... this is just what I was asking. I was not intending my ask as a challenge that they are wrong. I'm genuinely interested in the data.
Interesting, I had no idea this would have such an effect, I simply assumed it would be performed in-memory and written out sequentially. I can agree with a flagged option being a nice idea, but what's so heinous about adding a dependency?

I try to avoid it generally in my coffee too, but for something that could potentially offer a measurable benefit in a world of multi core-solid state computing, would it not be "worth it"?
Acquiring first users through offline workshops
I'm a founding team member at Power Club, a Bangalore based EdTech startup where 11-17 year olds test drive careers to design their dream lives.

We are considering workshops in apartment complexes and offices as a channel to acquire first 100 users.

If you have prior experience in this channel, please guide me how to go about doing that.

If by "internationally" you mean Western countries: Xi Jinping doing dumb things to save his "face" is very detrimental to his reputation there.

No one outside of China thinks his stubborn refusal to abandon the failed Zero Covid policy is in any way a good idea. Everyone sees it as a stupid and irrational face-saving action.
One problem with choosing a collaboration platform slash messaging app for a development team is that, once you got one running, it is very difficult to test and switch to another.

I would, for one, love to see a good comparison of all the contenders in one place - Slack, Linen, Mattermost, Zulip, Twist, Element, Discord etc...
The research described in the pre-print aimed to understand the mechanism of action behind the decrease in pathogenicity observed with Omicron strains, and specifically, whether mutations in the Omicron spike protein can account for that decrease. The experiment they carried out is about the most straightforward one you could draw up to begin to answer that question, and I would never even think to characterize it as
a "gain of function" experiment. If you want to classify this study as GOF then you might as well do the same with any study of a virus where even a point mutation is made - good luck doing any virology under those conditions.
Apple can get away with a lot more given its dominant market position (esp. when it comes to delivering paying customers to app authors). But when you're the new scrappy contender with minimal market share, so you need the devs to make apps for your store rather than the other way around, it better be smooth sailing all around.
Please write that big post! Sounds interesting
Does "Product Lead" evoke similar (negative) thoughts for you? I find that title (and anything "... Lead") carries the least connotation.

And IME, in an org that has PLs, PM becomes "one who manages PLs" - otherwise, if there are PMs but no PLs, I get the impression they are mostly Project Managers, rebranded to Product Managers, but without any of the Product responsibility or thought.

That's all well and good, but you also can't demonize an entire culture based on unrealistic navel-gazing. It's entirely possible this was a process or design problem that could have been prevented, but it's also possible that it's not - pretending you know based on few details in a one-sided article is pretty silly.

Science reporting has been dead for decades, these rags are glorified blogs that race bait and endorse politicians.
Why not? Automakers recall cars and 'patch' them years later.
Why wouldn't they?

If you had a budget of ~1T for several decades how would you (acting as MBS) spend it all?
Indeed. It's a bit like if a programming language was trying to represent base classes and meta classes using the same mechanism.

My guess is that no one realized the need for "meta" categories when the system was implemented, so later the existing hierarchy was simply co-opted instead of implementing a new functionality for that use case.

As long as the categories are only used by human editors and use is only within some small subcommunity, it can work quite well. The problem starts if you want to combine categories used by different communities or if you (or your program) lack the domain knowledge to understand which nodes represent "meta" categories.

As another poster said, the better approach to use Wikipedia data for automated processing is using infoboxea or the explicitly machine-readable Wikidata repository. The category system looks machine-readable on first glance but really isn't.
That's really interesting! And, I guess I think, good for you!

Right after writing my post above I had to google "dutch bike helmets" and found stuff like [1] which really makes it very clear that you (as a nation, I mean) just really aren't much into helmets. Cool that there are exceptions, although of course there always are at this level. :)
mm. I don't believe in doing that. You don't owe anything to the company as an abstract entity, but I believe you can be honest about your plans because it's respectful of the people around you, as people.
I didn't downvote the op. I downvoted you.

Having someone to disagree with your stance doesn't mean there's a conspiracy.
I really prefer the new look. I don't need or want labels in my field of view all day for buttons that I learned the purposes of years ago. If there's a new icon I don't understand, I can simply hover over it for a second.

I tend to rely on keyboard shortcuts and fall back to Search Everywhere (double shift), so the first thing I do on a new install is hide the menu bar.

I find the extra bit of whitespace helps with less travel and accuracy when switching to mouse.

The new UI has been a net positive in my personal experience.
Not saying that wasn't difficult, but that actually sounds pretty cool to me.

And not to be overly pedantic (although we are on hn here, and when in Rome...), but leading American socialist movements are focused on democratic socialism, much like many European countries where I'm pretty sure forced agrarian labor isn't a thing.

I would play games on my iPad... but there aren't very many that work, because Apple hasn't spent the time (or money) making Metal support widespread. Really, they should just fund / build their own MoltenVK implementation, but I would guess that they don't want to support two paths. It's surprising how MoltenVK only has one full time dev, I could easily see Apple throwing some money at that with huge returns.
truly baffling
> they would get tens of millions of new insurgents.

I doubt it. Most people will be passive and will just live their lives. They will get a few for sure, but they won't be able to do all that much. It's not like the ruling elite cares if there's an occasional killing, after all, they already use that method themselves, see the list of Russian businessmen and manager deaths.
The specifics of the top three economies in the world going to non-proxy war with one another, in the age of MAD, is incredibly hard to imagine.
That's a bit strange because here in Norway if the payment terminal in my local supermarket loses contact with the payment processor the checkout operator just print two copies of the receipt and has you sign one that they keep. When the terminal regains contact it uploads the transactions and life carries on.
Not only that, we have active duty American service members stationed in Saudi Arabia working as instructors and advisors on how to maintain and employ that hardware.

Saudi pilots are routinely trained at American military flight schools like Fort Rucker and NAS Pensacola. The performance of these Saudi student pilots is usually terrible[1], by the way, to the point that it's a running joke in the American military aviation community. This is probably because their officers are selected based on having royal blood, not based on merit, whereas getting into flight school is highly competitive for Americans. I'm told that Saudi Arabia pays a lot of money to send these guys for training, so instructors aren't allowed to fail them. Basically, the instructors pencil-whip their progress and let them graduate, but then Saudi Arabia seems to really need some experienced Americans on-hand to keep things from going off the rails.

[1] I was paired with a Saudi during flight school. For example, all students had to score 100% on a written test on aircraft limits and emergency procedures before ever getting into the cockpit. American students would get a second chance if they got one or two questions wrong, but that was rare and embarrassing, and there would be no third chance. My Saudi partner, on the other hand, scored something like 16% on his first attempt and then received five or six more chances. When we actually got into the air, he wasn't much better. During the first week, I approached my commander and told him that I was uncomfortable flying with this guy, but he assured me that our instructors dealt with this situation all the time and knew how to manage it safely. Later in my career, I saw a bit of what happens behind the scenes and learned that cheating among Saudi students was also rampant and effectively allowed to continue.
Its very frustrating that I have a stack of iPhones that I can't do much with even if they are still perfectly good hardware. They are either updated to some version where I can't jailbreak it and turn it into the worlds best raspberry pi, or I've forgotten my old passcode and its basically bricked as a result. If only I could run them as a small arm cluster or something useful like that.

Glanced through the article, and I see no comparisons on how performance of the DB is in Rust versus their current C++ implementation, no mention of if maintaining the Rust code is easier than their C++ codebase, no stats on how devs are ramping up and how it's tackling their "hard to find a dev who knows both C++ and Python well" issue.
Thanks for the input!
I have only second and third hand input from the 787 program so didn't want to imply anything there.
I hope Boeing fixes that managerial issues leading to what you describe as I am a fan of its historical product in general. (If I am reading your comments right and I am not blinded by my pre-conceptions.)
I'm always skeptical when people say x% of scientists agree or disagree with a given hypothesis. Most of the time these numbers are flat out wrong or misleading. Most scientists have very complex views on their own domain. Those complexities lead to a very nuanced understanding of topics that we lay people don't fully understand. Most have subtle disagreements on most topics.
Why selling them weapons then? Except if they were intended for gardening and what we have here - an obvious breach of TOS.

> Do dormitories put acceptable use/abuse policies on the free electricity they give you?

The dormitory did not give the free electricity to the author, but to their friend.

If, for instance, an "all you can eat" buffet had an acceptable use policy, I do not think that it would allow "you can also feed a friend".
Eh, I get where you're coming from, because most Android tablets are indeed terrible. However, I finally got myself one of the higher-end Samsung ones (Tab S7) and it's ...fine. Not earth-shatteringly good, but I'm happy with it.

It's completely replaced my iPad usage except for one game that isn't available on Android (FTL) - I still break out the iPad to play that occasionally.

No tablet is going to replace my laptop for my primary task of coding, but for video calls, email, note taking, slack, checking my calendar, web browsing, movies, and occasional gaming, the Samsung tablet is great.

Two things I particularly like about the Samsung tablet are the microSD slot for expandable storage, and the fact that I can unlock the bootloader and install a community ROM whenever Samsung stops supporting it.

The lack of a headphone jack is disappointing, but I think Apple is partially to blame for that.
Any experience gained cab also be said for the opponent. Facebook and Amazon are completely different entities.
Noooo, but wait... that doesn't matter linux doesn't care... M2 GPU is all that matters...

I mean it will be ported to iPad Pro in a week.

They will crack the bootloader eventually!
This is awesome. So excited to see where you folks take Linen! :)
Curious, what about that title caused bad outcomes?
You're right about dogs, but dogs cannot build radio telescopes so I don't understand the point. To be capable of interstellar communication, you have to be able to build machines, and doing so requires a systematic engineering culture and understanding of at least basic principles.

To put it differently, do you think such an advanced civilization would not be able to do something as simple as calculus, which would be far more advanced than manipulating a basic truth table? They almost certainly won't do it in any language that we understand on Earth, but they'll be manipulating and reasoning about the same concepts.
It looks like you HAVE to set an expiry on this new shape of token?

That's frustrating (though you can at least set it to an arbitrary far future date - though apparently limited to a year).

I tend to use this kind of token for automations - where I have code running outside of GitHub that needs access to something.

I very rarely want to limit that by time. Having to remember to rotate the access token every X months is annoying.

I care much more about audit logs and the ability to easily revoke a token.

Is there an argument for why non-expiring tokens are a bad idea that I'm missing here?
I get planting the wrong tree in the wrong area. That's part of what I meant by not being planted correctly. Not treating the root ball properly is another.

However, I have pecan/oak trees in my area. Every spring, I get free saplings from the nuts that actually germinated and sprouted in a lot of my pots that I use for my container garden. If I were to actually try to get one of these nuts to grow, it would never take. Yet every spring, Mother Nature gives me freebies that I feel guilty about plucking when it comes time to prep for the next round of veggies instead. I have an almost perfect spot to let another tree grow to full size. If it weren't for the remaining stump from where the shitty developer planted Bradford Pears, I'd transplant some of the Live Oaks saplings in their place.
I think drone designs have become so disposable that the value of collected intelligence and dick-waving outweigh the risk of being caught and reverse engineered. Such programs have value in intelligence and psyops against the US.

I think we'd also be shocked at just how trivial some of the drones are that are able to evade defenses or detection. I suspect we're good at detecting airplane-sized targets, maybe even ICMB-sized targets, but we have little to detect and stop drone-sized targets that can fly at relatively low altitudes, can be launched from inside the US, are easily smuggled and assembled domestically, etc.
"Close enough to walk" and "has walking infrastructure" are two very different things. In making schools and other things easier to access by car, we have often made them harder to access on foot, especially for children who are more vulnerable in dangerous situations around traffic.
Please don't tell me what I am aware of based on what you choose to ignore. I have moved off golf courses during lightning storms because I knew that I was creating conditions likely to increase my odds of getting struck. I have swum closer to the shore because I know that out in the colder waters past the breakers is where shark attacks happen and because I live in a country where 4 people get attacked (one fatally) in shark attacks every year.

And if either of those things do ever happen, I can guarantee that my last words won't be "but this was statistically improbable!!!"

I agree, it's unlikely. You don't have to wheel out numbers about how unlikely winning the lottery is either. But I know that my chances of getting attacked by a shark in the Costco car park are the same as my chances of winning the lottery without buying a ticket: zero. And if we can't agree that zero is different to one we'll just have to agree to disagree.
I always feel odd, why v0.0.1 not v0.1.0?

This was the first "naive" implementation on finclout. Every post get automatically scanned for ranked keywords and then matched with other known entities about the post. We also user collect tags from the user and have users verify keyword matches.
> But would they recognize 12 tones scales?

Assuming they have musical instruments and don't have far more digits (fingers or other dextrous appendages) than us, they probably would, and even if they did have more digits, it'd seem like a fairly obvious choice for a species with our anatomy. Especially for equal temperament, but also for just intonation, a 12-tone scale provides exceptionally good approximations or numerous instances of the simplest possible frequency ratios, so any creature that has to limit the number of tones on their instruments for practical considerations will have a high likelihood of stumbling on a 12-tone scale even before developing an understanding of why it actually works so well and/or find it a very compelling option given a more in-depth analysis.
Yeap, what the other guy said. I prefer byobu to vanilla tmux, but the idea is the same. Create a byobu session, detach, give it group permissions, group collaborators attach, enjoy the nano editing party. :)
Memes typically have some basis in reality. If your project reaches a point where it could benefit from fearless concurrency or better memory control, Rust is probably your best bet at the moment.

I could see huge benefits from Kafka and Cassandra being re-written in Rust.

1) Again, we know it's dangerous even if nobody has been harmed in Germany yet. Related relevant reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_orphan_source_incident...

2) The only reason nuclear power exists is because governments have stepped in to support it and cover most of the expenses.
If you remove that support, it can't exist. No organisation of any kind anywhere in the world can afford to run a business where income is generated for 50-60 years but expenses continue for 1000+ years after. France recently learned this: https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/france-keeps-edf-buy...

3) There are a lot of viable energy solutions with better tradeoffs than nuclear, and it seems reasonable to build them instead of building nuclear power plants. Heat storage, gravity storage, synthesized fuel, hydrogen gas to name a few.
The costs of a nuclear power plant invested in any of these concepts would go a long way.

All this talk of China invading Taiwan and attacking other countries in SE Asia is bonkers. Their economy would be cut off from the rest of the world in an instant. Their commercial fishing fleets would probably be driven back to port.

It would take a matter of days until they had massive internal protests. Hungry people topple governments in hours.
Gain of function research on dangerous viruses is one of those things that seems like such a obviously and totally awful idea that I have to assume I'm missing something. Is the whole thing just a bio weapons program with a sheen of paint and the occasional lab escape is a cost of doing business? Like this is stuff that will, eventually, always have an accident, no? Especially when it's financed to happen in countries with less than stellar working conditions. I can't imagine that everyone involved is so deluded as to think they can repeatedly make super viruses with no consequences, right? What am I missing?
>I'm going to wonder why Mozilla didn't do those things.

Self respect?
I think it goes both ways, but I agree, we’re mostly bad at making software work well for human beings.

I do think people have individual limitations though, and eventually complexity becomes exceedingly difficult to hide being a well designed user interface. That’s not their fault though, and I worry that we don’t consider this often enough as we race towards higher technology. We’re definitely leaving people behind.
