The video paid a nice compliment to the “modern farmers.” It’s the right thing to say in the video.

But I’ve worked with tech in ag for 10+ years now. There are some motivated/excited early adopters. But there is still a lot of resistance. It generally feels 10-20 years behind. I’ve worked quite a bit with the very company mentioned in the video. Like any big company, it’s made up of all kinds. I’ll leave it at that.
Do you wear glasses? Would you say you have a dependency on them? I know my wife does. So what?

Again with the stigma.

There’s little medical reason to expect stimulant effectiveness to change after the first couple of weeks, the “honeymoon period”, during which the mood lifting effects are most pronounced. It’s also that same effect that is the main attraction for abusers because it can give euphoria in high enough doses. And yes, that mostly goes away.

But other than a possible slight increase in dopamine re-uptake due to a long term increase in dopamine (over what’s initially a dopamine deficiency as far as we know), there’s no long term habituation (as far as we know).

If you feel better without medication, that’s fine, but please don’t guilt others into throwing away their metaphorical glasses.
> it’s just so uncommon to see straight men showing any type of vulnerability or affection with each other.

In Angloamerican countries, maybe. What you call 'vulnerability and affection' is a requirement for social conduct in Mediterranean, especially Latin countries. You wont find people who behave distant like in the US, or gasp cold like in the Nordic countries. They would be either foreigners, who would be identified as such and their behavior of being cold would be considered normal because they are foreigners, or, if they look local enough, they would be thought to have psychological problems, even autistic. In Spain, there is even a proverb that goes like 'being cold like a Swede'.

And in some places, if you arent emotional and crying in important moments as a man or a woman, people could easily think that you are psychopath.

Not exaggerating or kidding. There are great differences in between cultures on the planet.
Not really. Rainbow tables are inflexible TMTOs that are slow to construct and have been made largely obsolete by advances in GPU cracking and more widespread use of good salts. Your WPA2 example doesn't hold up in the real world, where even default manufacturer SSIDs typically append a random number to avoid collisions with neighbors. One common pattern is manufacturer_####, that would be 10k rainbow tables per manufacturer and would only cover the defaults!

Honestly if I hear someone in infosec start talking about rainbow tables in 2022, that's a good indicator that they have not cracked passwords in a long time, or they are just regurgitating what they learned to pass some basic security cert. Hashcat on a modern GPU is blazingly fast, and barring some really niche edge case, your best bet is just going to involve throwing more GPUs at the problem.
The idea that gay people having more social standing and more rights has somehow ruined straight relationships is laughable. You’re saying that when being gay was literally a criminal offense straight guys didn’t have to worry about holding hands?
You’re right, that’s exactly where Racket really shines.

Start here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/fo...

Once you throw a few input elements and a submit button into an html file, you can use the network tab in your browser's "Web Developer Tools" or "Inspector" to see how the form submission looks over the network.

You will need some kind of stack on the server to interpret the submission and do something, like stash it in a database or maybe in your case just append a string to a file. I like Node and use nothing but its built-ins for creating servers and writing to my filesystem.

Speaking of built-ins, python and php can be good too, they can create and interface with sqlite databases out of the box.

So I don't have an exact direction to point you but feel for you re: crap medium articles. I found it worth paying $25 to https://teamtreehouse.com/ to choose from the many tutorials there, lots of intro content of good quality.

I think it was Dijkstra that said that software actually lives in the mind of the programmer, and the code is just a distorted, lossy representation of that. Anything that gives us light on their thoughts is likely to improve our understanding of the software. Bugs happens when there's a mismatch between what's going on the mind of the programmer and what the code actually does, so when we read code a primary task is to understand what the programmer thought it should do.

Comments informs us what are the stuff that the programmer cares enough to write down. When we see a seemingly trivial comment, we may ask: why did they took time to write down that? Did they think there was any subtlety we aren't aware of? Or perhaps they were inexperienced with the language, to the point of having a hard time reading the code they themselves wrote? (if I put this comment on Google, will I find they copy-pasted from Stack Overflow? -- in this case, the comment may be very helpful, if only to track down that [0])

[0] but even better would be an IDE that highlighted code copy-pasted from Stack Overflow, Github repositories, etc
A Fermat test with base 3 shows the number to be composite. I think that could be done in a day or so of hand calculation. That amounts to a brute force method and as svat says, there are better ways. The Fermat test only shows that it can be done without much subtlety.
Agreed, I’m definitely coming at this as an American. Even more so as a Seattleite, a place known for its relative social coldness even by US standards.
Sure, I agree with them, but I also know there are a lot of mixed feelings around stimulant medication due to the attached stigma. And it bears repeating that using ones prescribed medication is not a moral failing. Especially in people who have stopped using it before and for those who might still be on the fence.

But I've changed my phrasing, just to be clear.

Great story, thank you :) This one seems to precede Bell's writing, though: it's mentioned in the 1911 Britannica biography https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/1911_Encyclop%C3%A6dia_Britan... and this 1905 book: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/24492/24492-h/24492-h.htm so it may be older.
For me, I've been on dexamphetamine sulphate for about five years. I had to have my dose adjusted after about a year, because I experienced what you mentioned (decreased efficacy). Once the dose was increased, the effect became pretty stable though (I'm currently on 45mg a day). I wouldn't say it completely negates my ADHD, but it definitely makes things a lot more manageable.
What is culture other than the shared set of beliefs that you agree to work with? LP questions are culture fit questions. What’s excluded are things that go beyond that, for example “how do you feel about drinks with coworkers?”

For some reason Firefox has horrendous issues on older devices. On my Win7 company-issued laptop a fresh window from a fresh FF install grabs 3.2 out of 4GB of RAM. On my phone (2GB RAM) it gets into a crash loop where trying to type into the address bar or load a new page crashes the browser. Data loss due to crashes is less frequent than when I was running Chrome, but spending 10 minutes every few days repeatedly restarting the browser is gradually getting me to move to Brave.
You’re right. I din’t want to be perceived as gay. What is wrong with that? I have so many gay people I know. My dentist, my next door neighbors, my ex boss, my ex classmate, some work colleagues. I get along with all of them. Live and let live. Let me enjoy being straight.

This thread is full of generalized insults at a million people based on where they work. If someone did the same based on a different attribute of a population, they'd be banned.

I've worked at one of these companies but left over a decade ago. I know how we're looked at when we do client work (part of why I left). Some of my colleagues were less competent, true. But, some will wipe the floor with the client employees we did the work for.

To WITCH employees:
If you are an employee at one of these companies, remember you are not the worst. Many of you come from humble backgrounds and are just learning the ropes. The world is cruel. It is a tough place, and you will be discriminated against. This is your fuel. You've already made great strides; keep going. You have to.
Humans are advanced, yes, but we cannot easily solve coordination problems.

Think of how different the world would be if everybody was controlled by a single unified mind.

If everyone was perfectly aware of where in the world their skill were best applied, if everyone agreed on social and economical objectives.

AGI can duplicate itself and can reprogram itself.

It is not about which one is more marvelous, more advanced, or more evolved.

It is about specific possibilities that AGI has that we don't.
I always find that portion of ADHD somewhat amusing. Getting fixated on a task and unable to context switch is a big thing, which I think is surprising for many people.
> It's best to use some tooling

Please don't hurt OP. They're new to this and want help.

They should avoid web tooling forever if they want to maintain their sanity. It's just a mess of a hundred and one tools that all do half of what every other one does, built by people who just refuse to get along and standardise on the Best Way ™ to do things.
I purposely wrote my home page (https://langworth.com) with plain, vanilla JavaScript, which features both WebGL and plaintext clients for a server-side text adventure game, because I wanted to remind myself that it's not that difficult to build something interactive and fun without miles of modern front-end tooling.

It started as a single page but I eventually broke it out into a few files for organization. The WebGL parts are lengthy and boilerplate-y because, well, that's GL for you. https://github.com/statico/langterm
Trying to settle in on a Mac coming from Linux yields a ton of moments like

> What the fuck? The window manager can barely manage windows!

> What the fuck? The volume mixer can't mix volumes!

These are the core functionality of the desktop environment. It's a whole host of absolute basics that are missing.

This also extends to lower levels. The filesystem has huge chunks of functionality missing to the point that it seems to basically defeat the point of running a CoW filesystem at all. Containerization support is pitiful. What the hell happened to multimonitor support?

Setting up your first Mac as a Linux user ends up feeling like a ton of work involving a ton of disappointing dead ends. That's what GP means by 'unusable'.

It's worth noting that this is not about being accustomed to doing things only one way. Most of these unmet expectations in DE functionality are part of a common minimum among Linux DEs. Sitting down at a GNOME desktop and getting to work is not nearly as frustrating for a Plasma user as trying to limp along with the builtins on the desktop that macOS provides.
You aren’t wrong, but there’s a chasm between mindlessly scrolling through social media every day (even HN) pretending it’s for your personal development, and actually creating content that may end up discussed on social media.

The latter can absolutely be incredibly beneficial, for the reasons you’ve mentioned.

I attended Montessori from 3rd-6th grade and then went to a 2-year transition program called "Project Based Learning" before returning to traditional schooling for 9th-12th grades. I loved Montessori and it helped shape me into the person I am today.

However, transitioning back to traditional schooling was extremely painful, and sadly it never got easier. I hated the rest of my school experience, from 9th grade until basically the end of college.

In Montessori, when it was time to learn a new subject, I'd have a brief, one-on-one conversation with the teacher to get oriented, and then after 10-20 minutes, they'd set me loose to apply the ideas on my own until I mastered the material.

Compared to that freedom, ordinary classrooms were miserable. Trapped, listening to lectures for 45+ minutes at a time before I was able to get my hands dirty and try anything out. And if I caught on early in a lecture, that made things even worse! Now I had to sit there for a half hour and listen to a teacher explain something I already understood—to no one's benefit. I'm getting worked up just thinking of it. Suffice it to say that moving at the pace of the slowest person in the class was torture for my ADHD brain. Montessori spoiled me and I never really reacclimatized.

I don't have any advice except that for some people (like me) Montessori works extremely well, and for many others, it doesn't work well at all. But if it works well, then transitioning back to regular schooling can be tough.
Is that unfortunate? If you've managed to avoid serious hardships with a modest level of income, do you need that sense of brotherhood? Brotherhood is forged in hard times because it's necessary in hard times. It strikes me a bit like looking for an emergency prepper kit in a land that doesn't have serious natural disasters. It's as if you're saying the old Chinese curse to yourself "may you live in interesting times".
I'm a man. I don't even like showing tremendous physical intimacy with the women I go out with on dates. I hate it when people at my workplace or church touch me. My brain says "Get away from me, all of you".
> Except it's not alive, or a child, the law explicitly says so.

From my reading, that indicates you support abortion under any circumstances at any time. Is that correct?

My position is, that it makes sense to use prevention first and foremost, then third trimester there can be an abortion for any or no reason, afterwards with reason.

Yes, the foster system is shit and needs a lot of fixing.

I feel you are portraying me as someone who wants to outlaw any and all abortion, which is pretty much the opposite of my original comment, in that such measures as in the article undermine the process of finding a compromise that works.
wouldn't it be easier/cheaper to just enclose the whole field in a giant greenhouse with a 100% controllable environment? I mean, I hear many crops are lost every year to things like floods from rainstorms that require pricey insurance coverage, the idea of having a guaranteed crop every year with no unauthorized organisms and perfect lighting and watering and nutrition seems like it would eventually more than make up for the initial construction cost of a giant greenhouse
Electrification is fairly easy once you have generators, motors, and even modest transmission infrastructure. Many early generator plants were for quite limited service areas, or even single applications such as a factory or electrified rail system. Some of those later expanded to sell surplus or additional power, Duke Energy (now the Southern Company) being once such instance, I've recently learned.

The basics of electrical traction design were optimised to a large extend fairly quickly, especially relative to ICE technologies, which are relatively more complicated, and high-power (as well as high-reliability) ICE propulsion took considerably longer to develop. So, 1860s--1920s or so for electrical vs. 1890s--2000s for ICEs, which saw improvements in basic design, metallurgy, machining, emissions controls, injection, and computer controls, among others.

The alternative was steam locomotion, which was still being used in the West into the 1950s, when diesel-electric traction largely replaced it. China didn't retire its last commercially-operating steam locomotives until the 2010s, and possibly later. (There's a set of photographs of a train engineer who'd graduated from steam to high-speed rail over his career, and possibly within only a decade or so.)

In the past decade or so we've seen increasing limits on ICEs, most especially of their fundamental characteristic of carbon emissions, whilst EVs are benefiting from incremental advances in battery and other technologies reaching past a critical tipping point.
Thanks for the link.

> By this logic they should let you drive drunk until you hit someone too.

I have said no such thing. The only implication of my position for drunk driving is that the law should not be able to punish you for it if you cause no harm. But that in no way means that, for example, a cop who sees you driving erratically can't pull you over, give you a breathalyzer test, find out that you're too drunk to drive, and lock your car, making sure that it's safely parked, and then ask you who to call to come pick you up and take you home. He just can't write you a ticket that forces you to either come to court or pay a fine.

It also in no way means that other people have to let you drive drunk. Bars don't have to sell you drinks if you're going to drive. Friends don't have to let you drive drunk. And in a sane society of responsible adults, those kinds of preventions work better than any law possibly can. The fact that our society has so many nanny state laws that micromanage all aspects of life is a sign that we don't live in a sane society of responsible adults.

> I think doing things in your car that have substantial and easily preventable risk to other people should not be allowed

I think you are way too ready to give power to the government, which will abuse it, and the costs of that abuse of power will far outweigh any possible benefit from such laws.
I remember when Java EE came about. They had something called "Petstore Demo" running, and documented in articles. Isn't there anything like that for Node.js/js/html/css ?
> Claiming that it didn't exist before the 70s is rather a stretch.

Hey, noone said this! Read back what I said. What I said is that the state of the language was bad. Because it was only spoken in villages not in urban area and for lack of standardization/normalization. So they did have to reconstruct a part of it.

> And it had to be recovered because using the language was literally criminalized during the dictatorship.

As far as I understand (know that my family if of valencian speakers, so do not think I am talking out of thin air) local languages were out of the education system but not forbidden or criminalized. Namely: it was not illegal to speak those. It is just that they were not used in the education or administration, which I admit it can have an impact.

> having to bribe officials to give basque names to their children.

Interesting, did not know about this, but yes, I do believe it.
“Good is the enemy of perfect” would mean just trying to make something good enough means it will probably not be perfect. Which…ok…makes sense. I’ll have to run that by RPG next time I see him.
I'm a guy and have been focused on building tools to explore emotions for like 10 years. I think a lot of us men lack intimacy with close friends, especially emotional, because we lack it with ourselves.

The analogy that came to mind this morning is that of a swimming pool. If intimacy is the depth of water, many of us are afraid to go into the deep end. We want to feel the narrow slice of what we've learned is ok to feel, aka stay in the shallow end of the pool because it's safe. Maybe in the past we went into the deep end (often falling in love and then it ending) and we almost drowned, and therefore we may be terrified to go back there, even if we are a much better swimmer that we think we are.

Also, I don't think this applies just to men, as I was crafting this analogy today as a result of a woman who wants to seem to avoid going too deep with me or other people in her life right now, whereas I want the depth.
A winch would be many orders of magnitude more efficient than a heater. Now maybe a heated tarp to help unstick it, if it happens to freeze in place.

Yeah that's a valid point. It definitely shouldn't put them in a situation where they need to depend on crime because they have nothing left to lose.

I'm just suggesting that there is a line to walk and for a lot of this white collar crime I think harsher punishments probably would act as a deterrent, as opposed to drug/violence/petty offenses where making them harsher than what we have already isn't likely to deter much

You don't need framework. You can create classes, make api requests (axios), add 3rd party libraries in vanilla.

The only thing you have to watch out for if you are making a public app (but I think you are doing internal) is security- in vanilla you must implement protection yourself (xss, content secuirity policy etc.) and most modern frameworks already either implement that or make it easier to do.

Depends if you care about Safari.

Real browsers like Chrome, Firefox and Edge generally "Just Work", Safari on the other end seems to be an endless tire fire that either implements things poorly or not at all. Doubly true for the iOS versions which generally tend to be older and worse than desktop Safari.
I've been hearing a lot recently about FTX after it's collapse and I'd honestly never heard of it before it's collapse. I've read that they were a prominent donor to far-left organizations. Is there any truth to that? If there is, what kinds of "science" donations have they done that are far-left?
