Telemetry is definitely a no-go for a tool like this, but professional engineers (usually very highly paid) really need to get over their free tool addiction. Good tools in every profession cost money. We'd probably get even better tools if creators knew they could earn some money for delivering value.

One thing as an old gamer (who played many tournaments 30 years ago), tactics is really the key for good players. Map awareness, spawn points, lines of sight, travel directions, common congestion points. Learning weapon recoil of the game, learn what weapons have advantages. I probably won't beat the younger reaction times, but I can still make the leaderboards, and still have fun.

The only thing that sucks, is most games are pay to win. I dont mind paying for simple xp boost and skins, but buying pay to win objects ruins the fun.
Research back in the 70s showed that (for example) if you studied the subject high, you should take the exam high.
I don't like it personally. I feel it is exaggerated, especially the part "I don't have the right words" I would feel awkward if I were on the receiving end — I lost my job, not someone died. Maybe it is just me, I get awkward easily, for context.

It highly depends on the context. Are they 20-something single person working on a high-pay job, or someone older with a family to support and struggling? The response needs to be different.
It was definitely not a CCS charger; my car will only play with CHAdeMO & J-1772. Aren't the only differences of CCS over J-1772 the addition of DC power pins at pack voltage, and the lack of populated AC line voltage pins? Or is there an alternate signaling protocol in use as well? I'll have to pay closer attention to the display the next time I'm at a public charger.

Findable Claim Reviews
the world needs fact checks to combat disinformation.

one challenge there is that the false claims tend to be more visible than their fact checks.
fact checks have gotten metadata annotations in the form of schema.org ClaimReview,
which has allowed Google to incorporate claim reviews in their search results.

while this is a step forward, dubious articles get their traffic in various ways.
this made me wonder if it might be viable to build a database of ClaimReview data.
as these contain URLs to both article and their review, this could help make a reverse search.

in other words, given a url one could find corresponding fact checks.
this could then be incorporated into e.g. browser extensions or websites (think search engines, social media).
there was in fact a similar browser extension called Fact Layer, although it predated the ClaimReview standard, meaning it still lacked an effective way to populate it with the relevant data.

the bottleneck here then seems gathering such data.
now, CommonCrawl does annual crawls of the internet, and metadata is then extracted by WebDataCommons.
they're not currently including ClaimReview in their separately extracted entities yet tho, while annual data also seems too slow for the purpose of combating current fake news.

only a limited number of websites seem to (structurally) publish ClaimReviews tho, meaning a manual list of such websites (e.g. based on those WebDataCommons found) might go a long way toward building such a dataset.

has there been any such an existing effort?
Why is it easier to use the commerce clause as a catch-all to ban app store distribution but not to just ban TikTok? Are there not similar rights concerns in play?

Also dead cockroaches is still better conditions than a lot of people in third world countries get.

Hey there! Advait here - author of the blog above. That's awesome to hear, hopefully you enjoy trying out Warp and switch over to it full-time ;)!

That's an interesting point you raise - definitely agree that there's tons of wasted efforts solving the same problems multiple times. With Warp, the eventual hope is to build an ecosystem for developers to be able to collaborate with each other and build reusable extensions directly on top of the terminal, to help address the concerns you mentioned.

Though, fostering this environment for collaboration can be quite difficult - in your experiences, what do you think would work well for creating such an ecosystem, where we can prevent duplicative work and encourage sharing?
One thing that helped me along is also the explanation that between two points in space, a straight line is the shortest distance. Take a different path and it will always be longer. Now, a straight line between two points in spacetime is the... longest time, which, at least to me, is counter intuitive. (note: i'm far from an expert in relativity)

> Ideographs take longer to recognize but contain more information.

I think this is a huge part of what makes it hard for people. You have to read denser code slower. APL code can easily have 1/10th of the characters when compared to code in popular languages. If you read at the same speed then you're reading... ten times as fast. That's a bit much to ask. You could read a five times slower and you're still covering information at twice the speed.
I wasn't aware that something had to be "my business" before I was allowed to discuss it on HN.

And "dedicated hardware wallet devices" are exactly the kind of thing that I'm talking about here. There is no way those are going to be appealing to mainstream users; thus, if cryptocurrency were ever to genuinely enter the mainstream, the vast, vast majority of users would be keeping their crypto on exchanges.

Y'know, exactly the way the vast, vast majority of people keep their money in regular bank accounts. Which don't require this kind of rigamarole, and never result in regular people (ie, not the very wealthy) losing money, because it's all regulated and insured by the government.

(Yes, I know FDIC insurance has a limit. The limit is high enough that regular people will never even have to care that it exists.)

Thanks to Apple and Google having a stranglehold on the apps people can run on their phones, an effective ban on tiktok in America is much easier than any of that.

(Yeah you can sideload apps on android, and technically on iOS too, but I think we all know that being booted from both those app stores is a death sentence for any popular app.)

Agree. I think they underrate Cartland and Jonagold but maybe it’s because I am a New Yorker. I think Honeycrips is OK but not stellar.
> And as petty a thing as, “We’re going to give you smaller to-go boxes so you can’t take the steak we’re giving you and go feed your family with it.”

That's what she thinks is petty? I wonder if she feels the same about replacing snack bars and drink fridges with free vending machines to slow down the workers who fill their backpacks full of Odwalla, Monster, and expensive snacks every night.

These benefits were worthwhile when employees appreciated them, but appeasing increasingly hostile and entitled workers is a losing battle.
Fun game. I hit an exception at the end of the Thursday puzzle, was going to capture it but it went away too fast.
Being retained when a co-worker is laid off is a weird experience. It happened to me once, and the co-worker was also a friend. I thought his layoff was poorly handled and it appeared (at least to me) that it was based on bias and not business need or a performance problem.

I started looking for other work the same day.
We know, beyond any doubt, that you can influence someone's behaviour by just showing them targeted videos and ads. It isn't rocket science or some conspiracy nonsense - just basic psychology. The argument being that if a foreign government has an app on the phones of most Americans it can, at any point, decide to show them content that will influence how they lean politically, morally, religiously, or in any other way - the possibilities are really quite endless. Knowing exactly what all users like and what kind of content they are likely to consume is just a tool that could enable it.

If you ask "well why aren't we concerned about Facebook doing the same to citizens of some other country(or even Americans)" - we are, but this is specifically about American government.
That's why they are only practical for short haul connector flights. Longer flights are not practical.
It's absolutely better than nothing. If that's all you can do, keep doing it.

But it's far less than ideal.

Unfortunately, long, low intensity cardio (zone 2 on the order of 4 hours per week) is also incredibly important for longevity and health. You also ideally should be doing some kind of real strength training (e.g. barbells) for 1-3 hours per week for long term well being. A good maximum strength building program is usually going to require 30-60 minutes 2-3x a week. Muscle mass degradation is one of the most significant factors affecting quality of life in later age. You mitigate this decline by a) maximizing your potential in your youth and b) doing consistent maintenance work in your middle to late age.

Again, something is always going to be better than nothing. Sadly, our current society doesn't really allow for people to get an adequate amount of exercise, at least for many white collar workers with families.
Maybe that is true of transferring money between USA and Russia, or between USA and the EU, or the USA and any other country outside of Canada and Mexico, but there is no reason that the UK and Argentina don’t have a bilateral agreement in place that would make transferring money between the two countries quick, cheap, and easy.

Much of that figure are payments for untaxed, but otherwise legal activities. On the other hand, crypto figures are straight up payments for illegal activities.
Still playing TF2. It is currently as popular as it has ever been, even though you could have concluded that it was dying around 2018 or so. It's a little different from other FPS since you can play several roles that aren't just twitch-n-click.
Where's the news-worthy-ness in that, though? I get the sense that a large point of this isn't functional but rather to cause people to talk and think about it.
There’s nothing I love to see more on an App Store page than that super cool “Data Not Collected” check mark. :)
> Your mouse sensitivity should be very low.

What in the WHAT?!? As a fellow 40+ year old gamer, who's played more Q3A and UT4 AND Counter-Strike than I'd care to admit, I've never heard or scene this strategy. You must be very entertaining to watch with all the ...flailing about!

UPDATE: I watched some YT videos of competition and while there's no "flailing" there's definitely increased arm movement. TIL thanks guys!
Because the explanation, of course, is very simple. Kids have a lot of free time, adults not so much, and practice time is the biggest factor in being good at almost any competitive activity.
Even more so when you see how quickly a skilled harvester runs through a vineyard. They're pulling clusters almost every other second.

Agreed, I was surprised that the "equipment" section talked about monitors with high refresh rates as opposed to ergonomic mice and such. It was somewhere around 30 when I started to worry more about getting RSI than losing.
This is why I don't play Call of Duty or other similar games.

Overwatch and its successor/patch Overwatch 2 have had less toxicity compared to other FPSes I've played. And I've almost never encountered a cheater.

The burden of proof is generally on the person standing up and making a claim, no matter how obvious the claim is or which side they're trying to prove.

But even when two people make opposite claims and there's no good consensus either way, trying to assign burden of proof by what seems obvious or reasonable isn't a solution. That just takes you back to two people disagreeing about what is obvious or reasonable, it's just going in circles.

Something you can do instead is put burden of proof on the person deviating from the null hypothesis, because everyone can agree on that. Crucially, the null hypothesis does *not* mean the obvious thing, or the expected thing.

In the case of whether breathing is fundamental and healthy, the null hypothesis is that breathing does absolutely nothing. And of course it's not very hard to reject that one, the null hypothesis is clearly wrong here. If it really is obvious, then you shouldn't have a hard time rejecting it and all is right in the world.

But trying to make a claim that's not so easy to prove, and at the same time trying to escape the burden of proof because it 'seems obvious or at least reasonable' harms your ability to notice when you're wrong. It's dangerous and it's bad epistemology.

> Which is why coffee works so well for ADHD because the stimulant action from caffeine is produced by glutamate.

Caffeine also antagonizes adenosine receptors which modulate dopamine. (Caffeine is complicated. Nicotine too.)

> Regardless, here is so much evidence that B6 plays a large role in ADHD and what, you all just ignore it?

The problem is it's the same kind of thing as saying that eating more reduces nutrient deficiencies. It might be more effective than placebo. If you're deficient in one thing and you get more of everything, you get more of that. It might even be the right solution if your underlying problem is actually that you're not eating enough.

But you want the solution that solves the problem as effectively and as narrowly as possible. Unless your underlying problem is actually a B6 deficiency, it's completely plausible that B6 could be more effective than placebo and less effective than Adderall. At which point nobody wants to hear you telling them to give up their Adderall for B6.
The thing I've noticed is that many games seem to depend on connection/host, even more than in the past.

Halo Infinite is pretty much the poster child for being shot through walls and otherwise being a several frames out of sync or behind. No amount of reaction will fix that.

Am I wrong for expecting games to get better instead of worse over time? Seems like its all about loot boxes, subscriptions, add-ons these days. Actual game play, content, and consistency seems lacking.

Caveat: I'm mostly talking about the big popular ones.

> Japanese is indeed harder to read than other non-symbolic languages. Symbols are harder to recognize because there are far more of them than letters in alphabets (latin, greek, cyrillic).

Do you have a study that confirms that kanji are harder to read for Japanese speakers than romanized transcriptions?

In English or Spanish, we also don’t read individual letters to reconstruct the words that they represent. We read the shape of each word. This is why “floor” and “flour” are harder to tell apart than “floor” and “flower.”
I tried dipping back into TF2 a couple months ago. The first two servers I tried had a cheater join and aimbot the bejeezus out of everyone. Gave up and uninstalled after that.
Kudos to you for trying.
Even before the live nation acquisition, they were a monopoly. At the height of their careers, Pearl Jam tried to tour without using them to sell tickets. They failed. I doubt any current bands have as much market leverage as Pearl Jam did back then.
The article misses probably the easiest way to level up: Join a team. A four-stack is almost always gonna have a leg up on a team of randoms. Playing a game consistently, with the same squad, form group dynamics and strategies that are much more difficult to execute with a first time squad.

Unfortunately banks had a tendency to pay a bunch of senior engineers to do a build out for 3 years and then turn it over to cheap nearshore consultants to operate for 10 years. The core of most big bank code you see was written before 2010.

Where I have seen bakeoffs and largely failed attempts to replace, the challenge is the number of vendor & open solutions you need to cobble together to replace all the use cases that KDB supports. Every year it was a slightly different combination that didn't really cover all the bases.

To replace KDB in many of these large use cases, you need - a fast columnar PB-scale database, an efficient on-disk store, a fast in-memory cache, SQL support plus with expressive query language additions for time series operations, an event bus, a stream processor, and a programming language to write more complex applications close to the data.

A lot of the newer cloud-centric offerings are more about massive parallelism/scale than about pure single thread/individual request-response performance.

This is great for the vast majority of CRUD apps with millions/billions of users.

It's even great for some financial "backtesting" type use cases where you can kick off large

It generally isn't sufficient for many of the real-time financial use cases of doing ad-hoc analytics on billions/day datasets with expected responses in ms.

The biggest complaints are its expensive, and the devs are expensive.
On the other hand you usually don't need as much hardware or dev staff to support it.

As a self-diagnosed autistic (dodged a diagnosis as a kid, in hindsight quite good seeing how france in the 80ies had some pretty rough approaches to it) that came to that conclusion at age 40, believing for most of my adulthood I wasn't because "look how many friends I have", the reason people seem to "celebrate" it is that it finally gives context to a lifelong suffering and feeling of alienation.

It's not like it will make your life any easier, since accommodations are scarce to come by, an official diagnosis can come with significant discrimination, and if you made it this far, it doesn't feel like a great way to spend your resources. It however allows me to not only realize that my experiences are shared, but to finally be able to learn strategies and find therapists that are helpful, vs actually aggravating the situation (say, framing you as argumentative and arrogant or schizoid or whatever, when what is going is mostly a communication mismatch).

However, my nephew got diagnosed and it allowed him to find a school that accomodates his cognitive style. He's gone from puking every day and turning into a shell of himself to being back to the bright and happy kid that he is. While in some ways I'm sad I didn't have that opportunity, it makes me so happy to see that the field has made progress exactly by widening its diagnostic net.
I think YouTube shorts has a decent shot, as they can leverage the mega YouTube pool of creators.
I know, its almost like the job of an operating system is to run the programs their users have, rather than just churning the innovation wheel at the expensive of the users who have to replacing perfectly working solutions.

This is such a BS take, the nice thing with opensource is that you can go look at the commits that say remove windows 7 support from python. And pretty much anyone who isn't a child can see its less a technical move, and more political. Because out of a million line codebase those half dozen lines were causing so much grief.

Frankly, all this "we have to remove legacy ports" and "legacy code" is some kind of OCD levels of mental illness.
