that will not pass muster to even be argued in court. i’m so tired of arguing with people about this.

go read some court judgements on PACER for a while, you’ll see.
Its incredibly rich to see an article about parasitic publishers in a Nature article.
Would love to hear more. Discussed this sort of possibility with an anesthetist friend at length and heard all about the importance of intuition. And limitation/absurdities of existing technologies (“humans aren’t a solid ball of fat and flesh!”).

Clinical trials sound incredibly difficult to achieve - such a slow industry!
My life. I had help, surely, but it’s been mostly me for some time now. :)
What was your involvement in iNaturalist?
It would be more appropriate to say that Keynesians understand the system well enough to say that it is impossible to get rid of debt without negative interest rates so the only way out is to have slow burning inflation and the most effective way to generate inflation is not via the central bank but by government spending.

I advocate replacing slow burning inflation with negative interest on cash. When that is done, debts can be repaid.
Yes as reported there are out of date info pages still up.
There is always the option to change the odds for fans. E.g. offer cheap tickets for members of the fan club and last minute tickets to fans who post the most convincing appeals on social media.
I'm actually happy to see discourse like "The right kind of white" because it shows a thoughtfulness I don't see with more offensively generalising notions like "white privilege". The message is essentially the same but the author seems to have the intelligence to realise that the privilege of some white people is not necessarily afforded to all white people.

I'll take it over the discourse I normally hear but my standards are low.
Application to register donor organs so they could be matched with potential transplant recipients as fast (we reduced the registration time from 4 hours to 45 minutes if I remember correctly) and accurate as possible. Java offline swing application (no UMTS available in the operating theater), details would be send with soap to a matching service. First actual field test resulted in 7 patients receiving new organs. Was really weird experience to be in the Operating theater seeing a surgeon walking around with a heart in his hands.
I love all the comments in the parenthesis.
Just wait for the transition to parenthood.

If possible, try to time it with your closest friends because otherwise you'll rapidly run out of both 'lifestyle in common' and time.

(Tangentially: I've been thinking a lot about the theme of 'lifestyle in common' ever since both my parents and in-laws have retired and almost instantly assume that, because they can schedule 100% of their day, that we can too: my mother organised a family gathering for a Tuesday lunch - "Mum, I'll be at work, in the city, and the kids are at school...". This extrapolates in interesting ways as well)
Here a nice thing of nuclear warhead maintenance/decommisioning of nuclear warhead. The article discuss mostly about the plutonium cores, but modern weapons uses triutium to boost the yield, see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boosted_fission_weapon. Tritium is faintly radioactive, and it decays over time in the stable helium-3. This is a quite rare isotope of helium, in comparison to the much abundant He4. He3 is much needed in dilition refrigerators, the big machines often seen in advestisment of quantum computer. So such activities on nuclear weapons are the source of a critical and scarce ingredient for quantum computing!
I built an email forwarding app[1] which now all of my engineer fiends and my family used it to signup for random services that ask their email. I also use it to route email to both me and my wife such as biz@ourdomain or finance@ourdomain insurance@ourdomain etc

Can't edit, but I just realized that when you go from continuous to discrete via the sampling step you also introduce replication in the frequency domain. So you have

Continuous sin wave: Spectrum is a single dirac

Sampling: Infinite samples of sin wave - spectrum is periodic train of impulses

Windowing: Fixed number of samples - spectrum is sinc convolved with that impulse train. The DTFT would end here.

DFT: Windowed samples are then periodically extended - spectrum is spectrum of DTFT multiplied by a comb.

Even assuming nyquist is satisfied, the tails of the sinc would still interact with each other, so the shape of the DTFT isn't _just_ a sinc, right? It'd be almost a sinc but with some additional wonkiness from the tails?
The cool thing is that hypothesis tries to build minimal examples that make your test fail.
You had a massive, untested assumption about life which ended up wrong.

At least you got the family part
It sounds like your definition of a close friend differs from the one described.
You probably would prefer colima to get an easy VM for docker/kubernetes using qemu in the background.
Who needed convincing? Remember this guy thinks AI is a thing.
"Typical" and "normal" are synonyms to all except those seeking a reason to be offended.
Unfortunately, "salient" does not mean anything similar to "fancy", which invalidates the original grandparent's statement (unless you can cite something else).
I hadn't realized that Bitwarden would work fine locally (in hindsight it makes sense as otherwise it'd be useless without an internet connection). Maybe I'll try self hosting it then.
But we have seen that countries who did more QE had even less inflation like Japan. The reason for that is that interest rates hit zero and therefore debt does not grow from interest which means less inflation is needed to erode debts.

The second order effects that limit money creation are highly fluid but the fact that governments with their own currency cannot default is set in stone.
I definitely know what you're talking about! This means you're developing strong muscle memory, which is good -- but having too much dependence on muscle memory is something to watch out for. It's dangerous because:

- Muscle memory is extremely transient; it starts to fade a bit after just a day or two of not practicing one specific piece, and drops off extremely quickly the longer you go.

- Your sense of timing in muscle memory is based on how long it takes for you to physically move your fingers, rather than on the rhythm of the piece. This means that as your muscle memory gets better and better, you unconsciously and inconsistently speed up, causing you to actually become worse at maintaining a steady tempo.

- Muscle memory immortalizes bad technique/"shortcuts" that you took early on in learning the piece. This can cause sloppy playing; inconsistent ability to nail tricky sections; an inability to push the piece beyond a certain tempo; or even repetitive strain injury.

- As you observed, your muscle memory can't get you back on track if you get disrupted.

- Muscle memory doesn't work when you're playing with other people, because you need to be able to consciously adapt your playing to your bandmates.

- You can't improvise/transpose/adapt your playing on-the-fly when relying solely on muscle memory.

- Muscle memory will randomly fail you at the most inopportune times, especially when you're nervous. It's no fun to suddenly forget all your music whenever you try to play in front of people!

My piano teacher taught me a variety of practice techniques designed to disrupt muscle memory; to force me to be able to play a piece because I know it in my mind and not just in my fingers. For example:

- Metronome! Lots and lots of metronome practice. Putting it on the metronome trains you to play to the pulse of the piece, and playing at a variety of speeds disrupts muscle memory because of how timing-dependent muscle memory is. My teacher recommended starting each practice session by playing each piece half-speed on the metronome, and repeating a few times at increasing speeds until reaching my desired tempo.

- Practicing in "rhythms": play a section (with just one hand), pausing briefly after every other note. Then play it again, but pause after the other notes this time. For me, this does wonders for tricky scale-like runs, because those little pauses force me to consider each transition between notes.

- "Backwards practice": play the last measure of a section, then play the two last measures, then the three last measures, etc. This is remarkably effective for me, especially in learning how to resume playing the piece anywhere rather than just at specific spots (which is really important for being able to smoothly recover from mistakes).

All of these practice techniques are infuriating, because suddenly really easy stuff you can play in your sleep is hard! But the goal is to reach a point where you have comfortable muscle memory, and are able to play without thinking too hard about it -- but you also have the "head knowledge" to keep you on track, and to fall back on when your muscle memory suddenly fails you.
Sorry but I call bullshit.

> Someone to talk to? Well, we don’t talk outside of boardgame night and we don’t really talk at boardgame night, other than about the game.

So you never, ever mention any personal event at game night? I don’t think so.

If one of them moved to a new house and needed help, would you go? Yeah, you would.

Nonsense, the secret ingredient of a good game is good company. So yeah, you big fluffy, you enjoy your friend’s company!
Wow. You should write a post about it that goes deep into what you had to do to make it work.
Curiosity is essential. Eg guy with chest pain and trop rise gets sold by ED as a NSTEMI. But why is the pulse pressure so high? Hang on what is that scar on his back? Oh he had an aortic root repair 20 years ago after a car accident... Ok I’m calling in the radiologist at 2am to do a CT angiogram. Sure enough, his aortic root repair is failing, and he has new onset AR. Curiosity saved that guy’s ass, following the protocol would have probably killed him.

Creativity also has a role for non-critical conditions when standard treatments aren’t working.
I had constant migraines until I started wearing blue light coated (plain glass, no prescription) glasses. Before that I was wearing dark glasses indoors on gloomy days.

Certain lighting (especially fluorescents) and just about any screens always set me off.
Ok, well everything you’ve said in this subthread up until here has seemed to defend the request as reasonable. That is the confusing part. Our entire conversation still works if we swap in “please measure the length of your forearm and report to the 10th floor” for the request. It’s an unreasonable and arbitrary way to compare employees for immediate dismissal, yet it’s definitely a way that would let you cut 75% if that was your goal.
You typically use build-std and possibly abort on panics or immediate-abort to disable the string formatting code in stdlib, and you do fat LTO. after stripping the binary, it’s pretty damn small.
If you want even further savings on std, you can use an utility that LZMA compresses the different ELF sections of your binary and unpacks them to memory at runtime. That’s language agnostic though…

Regarding multiple rust binaries each bundling a copy of stdlib and inflating the space, this approach would only link the bits of the stdlib each binary uses, but still it’s not ideal. Three approaches I can think of are:

1. Use a file system that compresses its contents like btrfs or zfs or their embedded variant. It should reduce the redundancies.

2. Go the busybox way, as you said. This requires work but it’s definitely doable.

3. Link stdlib dynamically. There is a way, I believe. Rust maintains a “stable” ABI as long as you use the same rustc version if I’m not mistaken.

4. This is ridiculous, so I don’t even count this as a way, but what if you just stored the .a static libs and did the linking on demand into a temporary file that would then be executed?

I personally have never encountered 50MiB optimized stripped and LT optimized rust binaries, only ‘materialized’ which was like 138MiB but it contained debug symbols, no LTO and is quite a large database application.
I not only welcome reasonable scepticism, but I do my best to facilitate it. I have accrued sufficient evidence over time of my own fallibility, and idiocy, that I now try to give people the opportunity to spot mistakes so that I might correct them. As a happy bonus, this also gives people a way of verifying whether the work was done in the right spirit or not.

To that end we work in the open, so all the evidence you need to back up your assertions, or assuage your doubts, has been available since the first day we started:

* Here's the experiment, with its 1025 commits going back to 2015 https://github.com/softdevteam/warmup_experiment/ -- note that the benchmarks are slurped in before we'd even got many of the VMs compiling.
* You can also see from the first commit that we simply slurped in the CLBG benchmarks wholesale from a previous paper that was done some time before I had any inkling that there might be warmup problems https://github.com/ltratt/vms_experiment/
* Here's the repo for the paper itself, where you can see us getting to grips with what we were seeing over several years https://github.com/softdevteam/warmup_paper
* The snapshots of the paper we released are at https://arxiv.org/abs/1602.00602v1 -- the first version ("V1") clearly shows problems but we had no statistical analysis (note that the first version has a different author list than the final version, and the author added later was a stats expert).
* The raw data for the releases of the experiment are at https://archive.org/download/softdev_warmup_experiment_artef... so you can run your own statistical analysis on them.

To be clear, our paper is (or, at least, I hope is) clear to scope its assertions. It doesn't say "VMs never warmup" or even "VMs only warmup X% of the time". It says "in this cross-language, cross-VM, benchmark suite of small benchmarks we observed warmup X% of the time, and that might suggest there are broader problems, but we can't say for sure". There are various possible hypotheses which could explain what we saw, including "only microbenchmarks, or this set of microbenchmarks, show this problem". Personally, that doesn't feel like the most likely explanation, but I have been wrong about bigger things before!
That's probably the size of the market I am thinking will remain. I would love to see a thriving motorsport industry catering to track sports and hill climbs, and then we can happily get rid of ICE cars from our cities.

If all I can do with my petrol car is drive it to the track and for special events, I think I would be content enough. I don't need the thrill of the sights and sounds of racing on my commutes, and I believe motorsport is the only exception that isn't trivial.

HN always renames the titles to be garbage. Either automatically or manual.
> I didn't realize that people just stop making new friends after 30 (outside work).

I think this might be a self fulfilling prophecy.

I’m 40 and I’m still making friends. I don’t see why there must be some sort of magical age limit.

Imagine there’s another one of you. Wouldn’t you want to be friends with them?
There's a comment after yours that says you can do it via:
wmic RecoverOS set AutoReboot = True
Twitter is half a content delivery app (getting tweet from you follows) and half a content suggestion app (tweets TW thinks you might like)

In a charitable reading it looks like Elon wants to remove hateful speech from the latter and leave it off the former.

This will allow you to say what you want and to follow who you want. Who ends up in your suggestions has nothing to do with free speech.
HN Changes Submitted Titles
I'm just testing something I might or might not have misunderstood reading a thread
Oddly, I was quite awkward as a teenager and really struggled to make friends then.

I had friends in college, but I don’t really keep in touch with any of them these days.

My closest friends are a few I’ve had since childhood, but mostly those I’ve made since adulthood through work and just striking up conversations outside of it.

Try a few new things and put yourself out there. We’re none of us that different and we’re all social creatures.
> Microsoft wants people to register online [...] in order to increase the market share of the Windows app store and other Microsoft online services

I would have to firmly disagree there. Microsoft are pushing the notion that an online account with some identity provider is a necessity for home computing by hiding the (perfectly functional) option to create a local account.

Medical treatment is obviously not fully-solved, or anywhere close.

But it is just as formulaic as described above. The doctors aren't trying to solve your issue. They're following a flowchart, and if that doesn't work for you, that's your problem, not theirs. Next time, be a better patient.

I've had doctors tell me "Good news! You don't have a problem!" when they were testing me to see if they could explain the problem I have. It's good news for them, because their next step is to tell me to fuck off. It's not good news for me, but apparently they can't tell the difference.
You can’t rely on cloudflare for infrastructure. They have proven too many times they will just drop stuff almost as much as Google will.
Yeah, it's a very specific "class" which almost certainly doesn't include much of what HN would consider "programming tech" jobs.
True. We can tolerate orange screenshots if it makes some people feel better. Even if it’s a placebo effect.

One study found out that people using such blue light filters tend to have more screen exposure at night. Perhaps they think the filter allow them to watch more the screen, which may not be good.

No. That was the ultimate plan but it never really got to that point.
What's may be more surprising than their malice is your surprise at their malice. These 'dark patterns' are so numerous now it's exhausting to remain duly outraged. I hope there's a future (or alternate universe) where dark patterns, such as this, result in economic loss rather than economic gain.

See if changing the URL from piped.kavin.rocks/watch?v= to piped.video/watch?v= will work. I've never had the "Unavailable for Legal Reasons" error when using the latter domain name.

Additionally you can set up a permanent redirect with a browser addon like the Redirector to always be sent from piped.kavin.rocks to piped.video.
It's a shame they didn't want to go one more 00, because that nicely lines up with a billion

The colors you get are a function of the brightness (also hue and saturation) you use. If you pick a fixed brightness and require yellow and blue to both be that bright, either the yellow is brown of the blue is washed out (or both) depending on which brightness you picked. As you adjust the brightness you're trying to design the palette for, it switches from one problem to the other.
Manuals are still ubiquitous where I am in the UK so I don't agree with that assessment. They are still vastly cheaper than automatics as well.

The bleak brilliance of Peanuts [Centenary of Charles M. Schulz]
A true hardware watchdog is separate electronics. For example, it's really easy to make an electronic circuit that operates a relay once every 5 minutes, say, unless a 'restart timer' button is pressed. Connect the relay contacts across the PC reset button, and run a program on the PC that 'presses' (electronically) the 'restart timer' button once a minute, say. Then if the PC fails to boot, it gets reset once every 5 minutes until it does (fairly obviously, another set of relay contacts can be used to trigger an alerting device, e.g. wailing sirens).

We use this sort of approach with diskless systems in particular. If there's a power cut, the first boot attempt after power restoration might not work (because the network isn't back up yet). So the diskless systems just sit there, continually attempting a network boot until successfu (at which point the software on the PC hits the 'restart timer' button periodicaly.

This is closely related to the concept of a "deadman's handle", for example train drivers who must keep a lever pressed down during operation - if it's released, the train stops automatically.

There’s no point in getting into the philosophical debate that is your first point - with the most obvious response being if they weren’t here they wouldn’t know the difference. There is no “they”.

It’s really disheartening to see this come up again and again on this thread.

If anyone would really trade the first 10 years of their life with their mother for any amount of money I truly feel sorry for them. Yes they have a dad. But they also have a mom - but not really because she’s in prison.

This tendency here on HN to presume this situation won’t be of significant negative impact to these kids is shocking to me.

If you really think a kid who lives the first ten years of their life never seeing their mom outside of a prison will be just fine because they have a “millionaire father” I’m not sure what to say.
