This is an interesting idea, and I'm interested to see investigation in this area.

However, for my sample size of 1 (my paper, https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S002186932... ), it didn't really produce anything useful, and was actively misleading quite a bit of the time. Of course, maybe I'm a bad writer -- I chose this paper because it is technically complicated.
We absolutely need low-stakes mechanisms to discover potential causalities to research further.

What we need to stop is put unreasonable emphasis on association studies (i.e., interpret the results incorrectly).
wtf is an "elite" anyway?

I actually don’t want comments on my site. No comments, no user database.

HN or Reddit can be my comment site, if anyone actually read my blog :P Or people can write their own blog post in response and host it on their site.
Moving out is a big decision, for now, I just want a remote job
It would take way more than your hour just to get the cargo there, and then load and secure it.

So the only way is to have the cargo already secured on board. You still have to lift, seat, and fuel the can. It will necessarily be scrapped after the one use, so claiming it ahead of time doesn't cost any more. It could be customized for the job, maybe with missile ports ranged around the belly.

I figure a minimum of six hours from "go" to a container on the ground. Maybe it delivers a whole truck and load. Or one main battle tank. (An F-35 wouldn't fit.) Longer if you want crew.
I'm getting to a point in life where I can't figure out what are they talking about: a game or a real-life racing. Or both.

Also, I am baffled that this is apparently a Nature publication, sounds more like an op-ed for a newspaper. What was the research result that was communicated in the article? It's barely exhaustive enough to count as a literature review.
We have been dealing with American shit for years.

More seriously, it is weird. It would seem a good opportunity for us to solve one problem and benefit in some other way as a reciprocal arrangement. For example, US air supply options are likely vastly superior to ours.

Because we want it to be open and free - but we think we should be the ones that owns it.
I was always impressed by Ben on the old singularitarian and SL4 mailing lists. This was back in the days before deepnets took over and other approaches were still popular (and people still harked back to Eurisko as the state of the art in general intelligence). I feel like his impact has been lower than it should have been, although I suppose the rest of the main characters from around then have disappeared into AI institutes to play various forms of elaborate LARP.
systemd-logind(1) manages user sessions. If you want to replicate the functionality of what “nohup” used to give you, I am reliably informed that “systemd-run --scope --user $command” does the right thing. Or, you can enable it permanently for your user with “loginctl enable-linger”.

Account data migrations are already supported on ActivityPub. If they didn't like the way they are implemented, they could have extended the specs. Building a completely new protocol just because you want to support account migrations your own way is just dumb.
> They are in no way as flagrant as Russian sources are, but you have to eat some salt with anything they release.

Russian sources (meduza.io, novayagazeta.eu, Katz, Savromat) are great and I consider them as a totally freedom, while Ukrainian sources are exactly as fascist as pro-Rashist ones. Any critics of UA regiment is totally forbidden if they are speaking from Ukraine. Even when UA government fails in something like using schools as a military base, nobody used to criticise army or government (I searched it). They used to criticise Amnesty Internecials for spreading "fakes", Russians for doing same as Ukrainians, West for not providing enough ammo, of course blame is on anybody except of themself. That was one of two main reasons of why I the Ukrainian stopped to support our army (another reason is bulliyng small businesses using war time when nobody can criticize govenment).

Isn’t exactly this happening on the other side of the fence as well?
Not everything is just an opinion.

Thinking that everything is, is a symptom of consuming certain types of agitprop.
To be fair, this was built by a toy company, who also makes things to the likes of Power Wheels toys or whatnot. It was never intended to go particularly fast or be particularly powerful, and most of the cost was probably from the fact that Tesla had input on the design.

I cannot be sure what kind of motor is actually used in it but the "crappy brushed escooter from 2000s with lead acid batteries" style of motor is far too obvious to ignore in the videos I've seen of this.

Everyone can go and waste their time in whichever way they like.

Some people like gardening, although they will never get to "sell produce" at the vegetables market. That doesn't mean gardening is bad, it just means they enjoy it and enjoy wasting their time doing gardening. Other people just go and buy vegetables at the supermarket that were grown at commercial farming.

Same with doing configuration management on your laptop, if you really want to enjoy it, go for it. For most people its a complete waste of time and a useless activity compared to the alternative, which is changing the few files you need changing by hand, and backing it up to solve the "lost my work" problem.
My memory is from three or four years back now, and there are many more lines of code that have gone over the weir since then, so I am sketchy on certain details but one of the things I looked in to, when working with bcache, was how to disable certain features of the code that were clearly hitting an IOPS limit, one of those being the dirty page cache, rather than letting memory pressure handle the flushing of the cache. I was not smart enough or educated enough about the code to figure it out for myself.
how about we don't fall into mass hysteria and wait?

People don't move from platforms, they drift away naturally.

I didn't move away from slashdot, I just found reddit suited my needs and naturally visited the site less and less.

and then, I didn't move from reddit to HN, I just used reddit less and less until I realized HN fit my niche more.

I still have my slashdot account, but it's been unused since 2014

with reddit, I deleted my account in a fit of depression... but hilariously I still visit the site regularly (much easier to track my various entertainments there), i just no longer comment there.

I don't user Instagram because, I just don't... get it? Too old for it.

I deleted Facebook when I realized all my extended family was on it and I just didn't to see them on social media.

Who knows how I'll fare with Twitter. I rarely tweet (honestly, because I am afraid of speaking on the platform, public speech is dangerous in my country) but I regularly use it, because where else will I get my instant updates?

So I will go where the updates are.

You might enjoy an operating system that operates fully in RAM. I’ve used picore (a modified tinycore Linux) and it’s nice. It lets you chose when to write to the SD card. Everything else happens quickly.

I think there are some more distros with larger ecosystems that use just RAM, but picore has met my needs and is a piece of cake to set up.
I have rpi4, installed almost 3 years ago on 64GB Sandisk SD card. I also have attached external storage. Still alive with tons of doker services.

I have /var/log and /var/tmp on tmpfs tho
>Are there any other languages that focus on "reproducible builds" for packages?

I think you misunderstand what "reproducible" means in the context of OP, but I will try to answer your question in the context of Rust.

When you upload a crate to crates.io it gets uniquely identified by its cryptographic hash. It's not possible to replace code for an already uploaded crate version. Now, when you get dependencies for your build you may get newer (semver-compatible) version, but you always can retrieve the older version. To prevent such automatic updates, Rust applications often commit Cargo.lock to their repos, which contains hashes of all dependencies. So unless you manually run `cargo update` you will get exactly the same dependency tree, which with some minor build tweaks makes properly reproducible builds possible.

Arguably, it's a much better system than relying on VCS as Go does.
I had a similar issue. Casual once or twice a week, turned nightly over the pandemic. I also live in a country different from my birth, though the locals still speak decent English. When the country went into lockdown (followed by curfews) I didn't leave my area to see my foreigner friends, and only saw the people in the neighborhood I live in.

I feel the pandemic revealed something in me, which was basically an underlying stressor of living in a foreign country and working from home. Previously, I was able to distract myself from the stressor with a lot of activity. I filled my days with work, being among friends, and other activities. These things were a distraction which sort of enabled me to outrun having to face this underlying issue. The pandemic slowed time down to the extent that I had to face these things head-on. Instead of dealing with them properly, I numbed myself with alcohol and a relationship which didn't have lasting fundamentals.

Towards the end of the pandemic restrictions, I had a difficult time with focus because of issues in the relationship and being hung over every morning. The switch back to "normal" was leaving me behind, because I wasn't adapting. I had built a lifestyle in which both the alcohol and the relationship were the escape, and then the relationship ended and I knew I needed to stop the alcohol.

I don't think I have gone backwards, or that alcohol has negatively affected my skills. In some ways, I feel that age helps. But I'm far behind where I would be if I didn't drink. I didn't do nearly as much work as I would have, and the work I did wasn't as high quality. Otherwise, it's hard to measure.

You may need more time to recover. To fully recover, you may need to stop completely. Though my tolerance went way up, I'll still feel horrible the next morning even with the equivalent of two beers. My greater concern right now isn't even so much the alcohol, as it's the underlying issues which sent me into the spiral in the first place. I feel that I'm working through it emotionally, so it's hard to put it into words. Maybe feeling my way out of it is the key, rather than rationalizing it. I feel I'm making progress though.

Good luck!

I'm not sure small wheels would really be an improvement, and large wheels would weigh a lot. So it's entirely possible that a smooth surface is actually the best approach here.
A takeover was announced a week ago (https://blog.gitea.io/2022/10/open-source-sustainment-and-th... ; discussed in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33339421). This got a negative response by the community (https://gitea-open-letter.coding.social/ ; discussed in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33372471) but the owners disregarded them (https://blog.gitea.io/2022/10/a-message-from-lunny-on-gitea-... ; discussed in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33394280). The reason behind the response being that Gitea was a community-led project with an electionary process. A fork is eminent.

Easy OS installation and experimentation by swapping SD cards is a neat feature made possible by this design choice. You can improve durability by underprovisioning - SD card of 64 GB capacity costs a dozen euros or so. Judging by the popularity, RPi isn't generally seen as pointless but certainly it's not the best option for every application.
Version numbers are just a form of documentation, giving the developer's best guess of whether the API broke or not.

In particular, Maven's use of groupId:artifactId:version is inadequate as an identifier, since many artifacts can have this same "identifier", e.g.

- Making changes without updating the version number (bad practice, but easily done)

- Building with different versions of dependencies. Maven allows version ranges, and resolves them based on the contents of third-party servers, so this can change over time even if we're building from the same git commit.

- Building with different property settings, e.g. due to a different profile getting 'activated' due to some ambient aspect of the system (OS, presence/absence of some file path, env vars, etc.).

- Building with different versions of Maven, Java, etc.

- The contents of Maven's cache also affects builds. If a file path exists in the cache, Maven will use it regardless of its contents. Also, undeclared dependencies can sometimes be picked up from the cache, which would otherwise fail if they weren't in the cache.

Maven also uses that scheme as a location for fetching artifacts, which is not only inadequate but also insecure (we can put arbitrary code at a certain path and Maven will happily fetch it). Maven does perform SHA512 verification, but those hashes are fetched from the same location as the artifacts, so subverting one allows subverting both.

Also, in case you weren't aware, git tags are just a convenience. Commit IDs are SHA1 hashes, so they're unforgeable and tamper-proof; whereas git tags can be deleted and recreated to point at anything.

FYI at my workplace we avoid some of these issues by:

- Performing all builds using Nix, which uses a sandbox with versions of Maven, JVM, etc. specified with their SHA256 hashes. This avoids differences due to tooling, profiles, env vars, caches, etc.

- All builds are performed without network access. This prevents Maven resolving version numbers differently.

- The SHA256 of the build environment (including all tooling, env vars, properties, source code, etc.) gets appended to the version number, which distinguishes these different artifacts from each other.

- Our projects specify the expected hash of their Maven dependencies (essentially like a lock file), which avoids having to trust third-parties for the hashes (a trust-on-first-use policy).

AWS Adds Container Lens to Well-Architected Framework
To be a pedantic shit, I wouldn't say React is a _UI_ library. React's deal at the time of its release was 3 things:

- You can mix js and 'html' in one component

- The unidirectional 'flow' of state

- The internal model / diffing so only components that changed would update the dom

It's a mix of a library (the 'html' elements) and an architecture pattern (unidirectional flow) imo.

I'd expect a UI library to be things like buttons, windows, UI components, etc.

> human efforts should be directed to the pursuit of social and moral progress and the increase of leisure

For better or worse we gave up on slavery a long time ago. We decided that humans shouldn't be directed but rather be left to choose their own direction. This means that they are likely to choose, literally and metaphorically, junk food over vegetables. While vegetables may be better for you, it turns out humans like to taste the competitive struggle for material wealth. If it wasn't obvious 200 years ago, we have learned that helping your neighbour live a good life doesn't spark the same desire as striving to have something to show that you are better than your neighbour.

> It's unclear who this destructive machine is serving.

Those who participate in it. This "machine" you speak of is nothing more than the aggregate of choices made by a population of people. They could change, but what's the incentive? Leisure isn't the top priority of the human. Mating is. And displays of "being better" help attract higher quality mates. We have yet to figure out how to provide decent mating options for all so competition is still required.

It might have started out that way, but over the years Twitter also added behavioral requirements primarily aimed at undesirables. Most prominent case I can recall is Richard Spencer.

Absolutely.

But I don't see them banning anyone from speaking.

The idea is that people are able to say whatever they like. Their unpopular opinion may enlighten you to some salient information that you were unaware of.

Banning, imprisonment, fines, etc, should be reserved for actions. Speaking your mind should be free. Even on privately owned platforms.
Cause and effect is backwards there. Designers only went to multicore because single core performance improvement was leveling off. It's not that people wanted multicore systems and were willing to sacrifice single core performance to get it.
> That would take years. I use Debian Stable.

That kinda is the whole point of static releases like debian stable, ubuntu lts, red hat or windows ltsc? That you actively don't want to have any changes like these but want stable (=static) foundations to build on. (currently writing this on old stable; don't feel bothered to upgrade right now)

I'm not sure I'm a fan of that. I would like to see more cars parked in garages or underground garages and not "polluting" the streetscape. Before we had so many cars, the streets were so much emptier and nicer. Here in the neighbourhoods the cars cover the pavements and in other places the shop windows. A large part of the quality of life in cities is lost due to parked cars.
It doesn’t make a lot of sense that they’re trying to move people to old protocols that can be intercepted. It’s an authoritarian country, why not intercept at the provider who has all the keys anyway?
A lot of people don't think of it from this angle. There was a period where I pulled a few days to catch up on work with very little sleep and no drinking. And the end of this period, I noticed that I felt the same being sleep deprived as I did after a heavy night of drinking. At that point, I realized that much of the feeling of hangover was likely sleep deprivation.
1. I run my own instance, and it's not that hard to set up and get connected to other instances. Those that don't want to run their own instance usually either join an existing instance (there are about 10k servers out there), or just join mastodon.social (and that's where most people are anyways).

2. When I joined I didn't know anybody either, but in a short time I connected to a lot of new interesting people. Now I have my own bots to relay content from people that are still on Twitter, and I have my own organic circle of followers - that's almost the best of the two worlds.

3. Muting profiles (and, even better, instances) is a good way of getting rid of a lot of spam/undesired content.
