I don't know. There have always been custom headsets, and they can be replaced pretty easily if not like for like. I personally find modern bikes easier to maintain. It's good to be aware of specialist parts but even Shimano hardware can be hard to source sometimes.
Thank you. The thing is, my salary is still like 2x what I could get in the country with the highest salaries (UK) in a slimiar timezone to mine. So I’d still be looking at getting my income halved.
While I also agree that static typing is the easiest, statically decidable way to significantly increase program correctness, I’m not sure we can do significantly better with it then we currently do. Most interesting properties are not expressible even with dependent types, and those are very hard to prove, making their advantages non-no-brainers.

What I’m trying to say is that we should be open about another concept, for example contract-based programs (clojure’s spec for example), because they might have better properties.
I don't understand why we throw away perfectly working things
Thanks! My idea with the workbench is I have 4 of those 2'x4' benches (there are two in the photo above), and I can mix/match them as a 4'x8' assembly table, an infeed/outfeed/side feed table, the photo shows the table saw "side car", and the slide out platform that I store the table saw on. And the 2x4 sections can nicely store along the back and partial side of the garage for more space.

The idea with the profile was to be able to use it like T slot for attaching accessories to, but I haven't really made very good use of that yet. I've been doing mostly inside renovations this last couple years and the garage has been a mess, so I haven't made much use of it.
As a Pole living in Poland and very much not a fan of the current government, I still greatly appreciate the preparations, regardless of the obvious propaganda value.

Looks like the Finns and the Swedes are thinking along the same lines. Si vis pacem, para bellum.
Calculus, flight, transistors etc. were not delayed because of knowledge being confined, but because of knowledge being persecuted.
Infrared!!!! (scientifically proven)

Everyone know about UV, vitamin D and blue light to help your circadian rhythm.

But very few people know that we need infrared to keep inflammation in check.
Our mitochondria use infrared light to create melatonin that remove oxidative stress from normal metabolic respiration. The melatonin we know from the brain is merely the backup plan for the night.

We have create an environment completely void of infrared (IR blocking windows, living inside, led light) and we get a lot of inflammation that trigger autoimmune disease, depression, etc.

I think that one reason why it feel so good to snuggle up to a fireplace in the winter (way better than just the heat)

This research has been done on human and mice, replicated, etc.
I think there is no money to be made by the pharma (in fact a lot of money to be lost) if this was widespread knowledge.

I bought a cheap infrared heat dish at costco and healed a terrible eczema i have every winter for 20 years in a few days.

I implore everyone who has an autoimmune disease or depression to try it out.
For sure the sun is better, but this can help in the middle of winter.

Great article concerning the state of JP Camera makers.

As an amateur photographer I feel this is just the natural order of things where companies succumb to the competition. Eventually leading to two or just three competing makers. Similar to Playstation, Xbox, and Switch.

My personal vision for a better camera is interoperability and an open source community.

Imagine if the major parts, pieces and software of the camera can be interchangeable rather than just the lenses.

Focus system of brand x, sensor of x, screen interface of x and view finder of x etc…

In this way, the components and technologies can be prioritized individually.

Open specifications can allow others the chance to invent.

Edit: another serious issue are the prices. This can be improved on greatly.
I agree, but you are trying to convince an audience made up of a "few" of the types of people who came up with those methods you raise here, or at the very least trying to get to that position. If anything you might even be provding a few of the younger ones with a road map. (joke / sort of). Source: see the reponses :-D

Ban people from leaving their homes and then ban alcohol so they don’t kill themselves from the depression. We’re gonna need a bigger hammer.

There were ways of getting alcohol for those people who are dependent to that level.
It's a post from before the iPhone came out, try reading the WAP version of the blog on your Cingular connection.
In the US we took the complete opposite approach (at least where I live) and massively deregulated alcohol sales during the pandemic. For example, it became legal for restaurants to deliver alcoholic drinks (including spirits) to people's homes.
I didn't want to make an unreadably long comment by trying to solve every detail.

But GPL just adds that the source be made available to any recipient of code you used. That's pretty easy to arrange because even a link satisfies it.

If copilot can be made to spit out attribution, then it can spit out links at the same time.

Another idea is copilot could be changed to only include code where the authors opted in to an aggregate credit where your new program only has to declare that it used copilot and a link to copilot's training set along with your programs source, without trying to itemize each bit of output.

There could also be other versions of copilot that includes other code under other terms, like pure MIT or PD code where the original author already explicitly granted usage with no terms, or paid commercial code where github paid the authors to be able to include code to be used in this way and maybe with terms where the end user does not have to re-share.
I suggest, if you can afford it, to try go for a European university. There's great ones in Germany, Netherlands, England, Ireland (my home)
Yeah, unfortunately I think a huge amount still comes down to luck.

HN is better then any other platform (which is incredible considering how many engineers work on it) at detecting fraud (e.g. "upvote rings"). But I think a ton still comes down to the first few people that see the post.

Both concepts have their problems; it does not have to be an either-or choice.

The problem with market value is that it downplays the needs of the poor, and is sensitive to all kinds of regulation (intuitively, if regulation makes the same thing more expensive, it doesn't make it more valuable).

The problem with use value, as defined by Marx, is that it ignores the differences between individuals, and technically the needs of individuals at all. It simply means "what the one who controls the society considers valuable". (If you think this is a strawman, just read the Wikipedia article carefully.) Of course, it is assumed that the one who controls the society is omniscient and can determine the value correctly, but that's just answering the question by passing the buck to a hypothetical omniscient entity. (And if you look at actual communist societies, it turns out, perhaps surprisingly to many, that the ones who control them are neither omniscient nor benevolent.)

What seems to work best, so far, is a hybrid system where:

* the value of million little things (often not useful per se, but as a raw material for something else) is determined by the market;

* some form of social security ensures that anyone's needs have a non-zero weight;

* the "socially useful but not market profitable" projects are paid for by taxes and charities.

In other words, the "use value" can be implemented on top of "market value" by financing things by taxes and charities. In the opposite direction, the "market value" can also be implemented on top of "use value" by trading the government-assigned things on black market; the only problem is that this is typically considered illegal. The fact that both things occur naturally in different kinds of societies suggests that both are necessary. (And the proposal of "free market with unconditional basic income" is how they could exist side by side without having to implement one of them as a hack on top of the other. The last component you need is some kind of Kickstarter.)
The affinity cursor is a really smart solution to such an old and common problem. Bravo! I hope more editors adopt it as a standard pattern.
I like how you squeezed a crazy conspiracy theory that’s been largely dismissed in at the end. Slick.
A good teacher should explain why the definitions and theorems are useful. I'm sorry you've had a bad experience.
Absolutely. There have always been domains where industry roles have been just as sought after as academic ones - think Computer Science broadly, and all the opportunities one has with a PhD there. Other domains have been slow to catch on to this, but it seems like there has been an inflection point over the past 10 years where we're just so grossly overproducing PhDs in so many domains relative to academic jobs that there is mounting pressure on degree programs to revamp their training/prep for "alternative" career paths.

Myself and colleagues are definitely trying to encourage our alma mater to have more support for externships other opportunities in industry. I think things will continue to change - for the better, for early career scientists - over the next 5-10 years. If only because there is a workforce crisis in my field where skills like AI and software engineering are in extremely high demand, but even 3-4 years ago we actively discouraged PhD students from pursuing this type of work!
Here's some advice I gave my brother. (My daughter was 15 months old, and I was thinking about what advice I wish I'd been given before she was born)

1) Remember at all times that no matter how tired you are, your partner is almost certainly much more tired. Basically, give her a free pass for the first few months, if not longer. (The hormonal changes a few days in are no fun either)

2) There is no point comforting a crying baby (when there's nothing actually wrong) - they just don't understand what you're trying to do. Distract the fuck out of them instead. (This from a baby psychologist on a BBC documentary.

3) Babies are their own tutorial. They start off really simple, with about three things to remember, and then once you've got the hang of those things they start adding new ones on. But you don't need to panic about whether you can do it, it's not complicated, just full on.

4) Bonding - do not panic if it takes you six months (or longer) to fall in love with your child. I certainly felt incredibly protective of Sophia from the moment she was born, but I didn't feel fully connected to her until she was able to smile at me, and we could have some kind of interaction. It's really easy to feel awful because all the TV and movies says it happens instantly, but it can take a fair while, so don't worry about it.

5) Ignore any advice you don't like.
I agree. It’s quite scandalous.
“literally cannot agree on anything”
Funnily enough I've been considering going the opposite way. I'm on Windows, Android and iPadOS right now, but this diversity of operating systems means nothing integrates well, so it's not a great experience.

Buying into the Google or Microsoft ecosystems would improve things on this front, but this seems not great w.r.t. privacy, which is why I'm thinking of going all in on Apple.
Isn't that... Umm good ? Windows completely rehauls everything in every major releases and makes it difficult to navigate through.
It is Russia's, and only Russia's, fault that Russia has territorial ambitions on Ukraine. Russia has no viable claim to any Ukrainian territory [1]. The limits of Russia's territorial ambitions appear to either be the boundaries of the Russian Empire (which would include much of Poland) or the existence of large Russian-speaking minorities (which would exclude Poland, I believe).

[1] Even in Crimea, it is not clear that a majority of the population would have voted to become a part of Russia in a free & fair election. It's certainly clear that everywhere else in Ukraine, support for being a part of Russia extends no further than wherever Russian forces occupy.
The time for action is when they start reorganizing things into neat rectangular grids.

“Ye olde organically-evolved peasant villages tended to be complicated confusions of everybody trying to raise fifty different crops at the same time on awkwardly shaped cramped parcels of land. Modern scientific rationalists came up with a better idea: giant collective mechanized farms growing purpose-bred high-yield crops and arranged in (say it with me) evenly-spaced rectangular grids.”

For me, it was too long and verbose: instead of showing with no prior knowledge, it starts telling me how intuitive stuff will be. Also the sound started activated and by clicking, as instructed by the blinking text, I disabled it, which was confusing.

I thought what followed was equally thought-provoking:

"In Rey’s view, the notion of “recursive processing” as a unique form of cognition is in itself flawed. Even in humans, he says, this capacity can most likely be explained simply through associative learning mechanisms..."

AFAIK, this contrasts quite markedly with Chomsky's position that recursion is central to his universal grammar.
Wonder how many people it sent to alternative drugs, that were even more harmful to them but won't show up in the numbers as having been victims of government one-size-fits-all policies.
So many of my older coworkers only seem to want to drink. Every outing is to a bar or pub of some sort. I do not drink at all, and often feel excluded. Constant questions and pressures "Why aren't you drinking? Just have one..." Even in the office there are mini bars scattered about. The culture needs to change.

Strange that users have private keys. Is that kinda forward-looking, so that at some point those keys could be moved to the users themselves? So they can keep their identity, even if the owner of their instance becomes malicious?

Sadly there’s another system that really should know better with terrible 2FA policies: Amazon AWS. The mechanism for protecting an AWS root account is not quite as bad as PayPal, but it’s not much better.

AWS should offer the ability to enroll multiple second factor devices and to configure a policy for what subsets of them can log in. But they don’t even come close, and their actual capabilities are far worse than, say, Gmail or GitHub.
same boat.

i have an air from mid-2013 and my last upgrade was Big Sur. i may have gotten the upgrade by mistake. since it happened, i am no longer getting any patches. and Monterey, of course, does not install. the upgrade app still nags me every now and then that i need to upgrade (to what?).but i do have a 2022 M2 on the side, for comparison. as far as i can tell, our problem is not the operating systems.

my biggest problem is with our browsers! or rather, our modern resource hog web applications.

i only use my personal macbook airs for the web. and i do use safari, chrome, edge, and vivaldi daily. each dedicated to a single purpose. so, on my M2 air, these beasts load most sites i visit fine. my mid-2013 air, sometimes, struggles opening gmail or youtube. i also never open any fancy webgl application on it.

oh by the way, edge, whatever you are doing, you are the best when it comes to youtube ;) and that's my only task for you.

Calling binary search and mergesort implementations "broken" does the author no service with his argument. If the key lesson is to "carefully consider your invariants" then the proper takeaway is that binary search and mergesort implementation lose generality with large arrays.

The implementation shown works perfectly for arrays on the order 2^30. Calling them broken is like saying strlen is broken for strings that aren't null terminated.
Summary:

- “In March, the Senate voted to put a stop next year to the twice-annual changing of clocks”

- “opinions break down by region, not by party”

- “they do not expect Congress to reach agreement before the end of the year”

- “Senate would need to reintroduce the bill next year if it is not approved by the end of the year”

- “Critics … say it will force many children to walk to school in darkness during the winter”
Thanks for the posts! I agree that part one provides useful background. One thing I note, I think it would be interesting to see a comparison of brightness (reading distance) and fuel consumption with a pressurized kerosene lamp - even if you don't like the hiss! I assume they throw more light with the mantle. I don't have a "cold blast" lantern so I'm not able to do the comparison myself.

Well, you can't run 2002 OS X software on a modern Mac anymore, but you can still run 2002 Windows software on a modern PC (and probably 2002 Linux software too).

Actually, you can't even run 2010 iPhone OS software on a modern iPhone anymore (but you can run 2010 Android software on a modern Android phone).
> This symbol is "valid" and we don't need to do anything. This symbol is "invalid" and we need to escape it.

It's quite a stretch to call symbols that need to be escaped “invalid”. And it's often possible to escape without discerning between “valid” and “invalid” characters. For example, in HTML you might just convert all characters into numeric entities.

> It is however balls to the wall insane to say "Just use it" in general.

Good thing the parent didn't say it in general.
This is the most scientifically-validated answer. Full-spectrum lighting has been shown to reduce the effects of SAD. I keep a normal lamp with a full-spectrum bulb at my desk and turn it on for meetings during the day. It is enough for me to eliminate SAD.

In conversational English, you can turn nouns into verbs by adding "ing", similar to a contraction.

"Cancel culture"-ing means "engaging in cancel culture". (Which, to be clear, optimizing ad spend is not).
Where though? Echoing the parent poster, where I live (metro Chicago) there is very little room to build and it’s more teardown/$1M+ rebuilds happening. I can see more building happening in the boonies/far burbs but you end up moving too far from the city. NYC is in the exact same spot.
If you’re outside Columbus, OH or Little Rock, this might be a good sign but for those who prefer urban or urban+suburban living, I can’t see much relief happening any time soon.

As one of those white collars in Poland, I think some of that hesitancy against defending your country is because current ruling party seems very anti-intellectual and it seems like a lot of country supports them, so intellectuals think "If they wan't tnis, let them have it with all the consequences". Me: I'm preparing to defend my country, but it's no use if I'm just sent to meat grinder by incompetent politician-ass-kissing generals.
When you’re talking indices, you should NEVER use int, unsigned or not. The world is 64-bit these days and int is stuck at 32 bits almost everywhere. And even on 32-bit systems indexing with unsigned int may not be safe unless you think about overflow, as this bug demonstrates (at least unsigned overflow is not immediate UB in C and C++ like signed overflow is…)

C has size_t. Use it.
I cut out alcohol a year and change ago. I was starting to get bad heartburn and I wasn't bouncing back the next day like I used to. Not just physically but emotionally. Kind of a dead to the world/not firing on all cylinders sort of thing.

Even with essentially a 1:1 replacement of alcohol with weed I feel much better. I don't have the heartburn I did and even if I get super stoned on night I wake up normal the next morning.

It's just kind of obvious in retrospect. Alcohol is a substance that will kill you if taken in a dose 2-4 times what people drink. Not shocking that those sub-lethal doses have side effects.
Russia had a force for 240 to 260 thousand stationed across the border with Ukraine at the eve of February 24. They are a highly mechanised force, with more artillery firepower than of any NATO military except Turkey, and Greece.

It was only because Ukraine was uniquely prepared to give Russia a symmetric response using a lot of raw firepower, they managed to withstand their first attack wave.

If that force of 250 thousands would have rolled into Europe instead, you would've been fucked. Do you realise that?
Watching Russian convoys sport the Soviet flag pretty much signals their intention: roll into all of the old warsaw pact countries.

Poland has absolutely 0 natural geographical barriers.
While you may not like what the Bee or the Onion or any other publication satirises that does not mean it is "not welcome here". Others find the same satire a welcome relief from a narrative which is being pushed hard, often with the threat of unemployment and social ostracisation as a threat for disobedience.
"On days when I don't get my dose of sunlight, I use a daylight lamp that I sit in front of for at least 20 minutes. Often as much as an hour."

Does the sunlight work better than the lamp, or do you just prefer it for some other reason?
