That was my immediate reaction. At first, I thought they were isometric drawings...
This also makes them presumably not source controlled in the same way? I.e. is it the equivalent of a shared text file of SHA->Text mappings?
I don't know about other markets, but Euro NCAP (https://www.euroncap.com/) includes pedestrian and cyclist safety in their assessments and Land Rover claimed that they had to stop the production of the original Defender because it did not comply with the mandated minimum safety standards for pedestrians and occupants.

I spent a lot of time in a 2012 Defender without any airbags and seats which were essentially just screwed to a wooden/sheet metal frame - but the high and upright seating position made me feel safer than do in an (objectively safer) sedan or hatchback.
My understanding is that 1200 kcal is independent of height or weight. I was told that the rough calculation was based on the lower estimate of basal metabolic rate and then subtracting a couple hundred kcal.

We both come from a South Asian background and discussed how the number would change for a home cooked vegetarian diet which is more nutrient dense but low in protein, and I was told that would lower it below 1200, but he didn't feel comfortable recommending that diet unsupervised. He emphasized that I should decrease calories by removing carbs, then fats, then proteins. And that I should prioritize eating proteins above fats and carbs, especially if I planned on increasing the amount of exercise I did.

I asked him if the 1200kcal was net or gross. For example if I did 2 hours of moderate exercise, should I eat back 400kcal+ to maintain a net 1200kcal. He didn't have an answer for me, other than saying, if I start to feel weak or lightheaded I should immediately stop exercising. I don't have pre-existing conditions related to blood glucose, but I imagine that would would change many of these guidelines. I was told to stay mindful of hydration.

The stories I hear of fasted work outs is the reason I asked him about low calorie diets. My non professional intuition makes me believe that even intense cardio should be okay, but moderate or heavy resistance training should be avoided on a low calorie diet.
How Monogamy and Incest Taboos Made the West
I don’t think any jews advocate for suppressing nazi symbols on asian soil, but maybe i misread the article. So, i don’t see what imperialism you’re talking about. Fight against nazi is a traumatic experience for every european, american and westerner in general, because every person in that part of the world has some kind of family history related to this fight.
While Russia and China don’t want to see North Korea collapse as existing nuclear powers they don’t especially want to see other countries acquire nuclear weapons.

Active support and collaboration came from Pakistan, Iran and Libya who were all trying to develop nuclear weapons of their own.

Huh, interesting. I do know someone who is quite happy to use Scrivener, so if it works it works I guess, but it seems to do way less than I thought it would.

At this point something like org-mode or markdown sounds more useful. At the very least you could annotate scenes with metadata and read this metadata using other programs. Should be reasonably doable to tag scenes with the characters in it etc. From what I know of org-mode it could do quite some magic with just that info.

I reckon LaTeX is also a good choice, though it's tricky for other tools to read, you'd basically always need to compile it first, or stick to simple LaTeX.
Hardware costs are coming down, hopefully this will be more and more prevalent.
From the top of my head:

- First class functions (pretty much all languages)
- First class null values through Option/Maybe (several languages use nullable types like Typescript but it's an approximation to the real thing)
- Unit type instead of hacks like 'void' (Kotlin, Rust)
- Expressions over statements (ex. if..then..else is an expression, and you don't rely on hacks like ternary expressions) (Kotlin, Rust, Scala)
- Statically typed with full type inference (Kotlin, Rust, Scala)
- Pattern matching (Java and C# are continuously extending this feature)
- Green threads as default (Go, soon Java)
- Decouple data from interfaces through Type Classes/Traits (Rust, C#'s static virtual members in interfaces is a start)
- Generic programming. Do not confuse this with parametric polymorphism (I think Rust has an approximation through macros)
- Effects (like IO) as first class values (Scala's ecosystem tries to mimic this)

Haskell was released in 1990 and feels more modern than most "modern" languages.
May be, but the people are allowed to think something else, and say that too. So, bad luck if they get grouped with neo-nazis, and that's it? When in Rome...
Seems like a standard git thing: have a process that works in a specific, but not a “helpful” way and also have a undiscoverable setting to configure said process.

Is that why people keep building UIs and wrappers for git?
Same thing happens when error messages push the whole form down. This is annoying when for example I log in to my bank account using 1Password. When 1Password gets focus (and the login form loses focus), the login form immediately complains with an error message saying the fields are required and pushes the form down. When I select my bank login from the 1Password dropdown, I always immediately try to click on the "Sign in" button, which at that point moves up because the error disappears.
I find the work week is often short to get bigger multi-person things done, and when doing them over 2 weeks the weekend in the middle really breaks the rhythm. A lot of the discussion centers on individual productivity - but so little of what companies do is individual! My dream scenario in terms of getting stuff done would be something like a 10 day work week, 10h per day (nice round 100h block) - and then something like a 5 day weekend
This stylometry tool was discussed yesterday: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33755016

About stylometry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stylometry

Ahoy! In response I became curious about how t' obfuscate me posts. One idea be t' run me text thru google translate t' one language 'n back t' english fer one identity 'n another language fer another identity. Thar are many valid reasons fer havin' an alt account. I 'ave a main account that I share wit' the public, then I 'ave a private account where I can discuss me bipolar illness 'n recovery from alcoholism wit' anonymity.

From Alcoholics Anonymous: "“Anonymity be the spiritual foundation o' all our traditions, ever remindin' us t' galleon principles afore personalities.”

So obviously stylometry outs me t' scallywags readin' me main account, which violates me spiritual principles 'n could cause me harm in me real life. Thar could be other reasons. Political repression fer example.

As a hiring manager in the field, my opinion is yes. Companies are realizing reliably obtaining and processing data is harder and more critical than model built. Especially for early stage companies.
In the book, as far as I've read, the focus on septic violations was an effort by the county to get people off the land. They often gave 10 days to get a septic in place and daily fines after that, when getting someone to put one in if you had the money would take months and you needed a permit to do so which was often denied.

The reasoning was the people who lived in the towns around there didn't like off-griders buying the land on the flats and moving in, so were trying to push them out however they could.

In the book there is a group suing the county for it, but they can't really afford lawyers and also are sort of free-men-on-the-land loons, so it doesn't go well.
Most people have working lives spanning decades, so maximizing the output of any one month is generally counterproductive.

However, if you have a well-rested, happy and productive team that has adequate time for leisure and recreation, you can turn up the pace for those exceptional months that are really make or break.

But if you try to get people to run at that pace continuously, you'll get a lot of resignations and a few heart attacks at 50.
Where do you host your fossil repos (or do you not centrally host them at all)?
A particular bane of mine is the self-oscillating UIs, youtube is particularly bad at it these days - if the mouse pointer is in 'just the right place' (which is bigger than it sounds) then you get the seek-bar preview frames popup, which moves things just enough that the mouse pointer is no longer over the area that triggers it, so it vanishes, and the whole thing starts again.

"Power user" is relative and ill-defined, but I don't think I've ever met a git-user who at least haven't heard of git bisect.
There are different type of works.
I can push boxes or clean a ship as long as I have strength, which is likely to be 10 hours.

I can't make productive decisions for 10 hours in a row. If you increase the amount of hours, you don't get more knowledge work done. You just get more meetings and useless fillers or procrastination.

All in all, I think dictating when employees work is stupid, exactly how it's stupid to pay a contractor per hour. You should always pay based on output, no matter when that output was achieved. On the contrary, you might even want to pay more if the desired output was achieved earlier than expected (and not pay less because he must have worked less hours).

Be ruthless on the output, don't bother about the hours.
Rosetta absolutely does help.
You register rosetta (which can be mounted into the VM using macOS's virtualization framework) with binfmt_misc and your x86 binaries inside the VM will run through Rosetta.
Working in a crisis (crunch, etc) mode 100% of the time is not healthy or sustainable.

People can stretch to meet a deadline, or avert a crisis—but they need time to recover afterwards. The extra effort and productivity comes at a cost that needs to be repaid for their health and wellbeing.

The purpose of the 4 day week trials around the world has been to evaluate if there’s a measurable drop in productivity, and it seems overwhelmingly there hasn’t been.
I had this happen to me once. Between when I accepted the offer and my start date the company had a 10% layoff. I pretty much got the cold shoulder the moment I walked in the door and it was a pretty miserable experience. I only stayed at that company about 4 months before I had enough and moved on.
An elastica curve doesn't depend on the stiffness of the material - as long as it is linearly elastic.
Back in the early 00s there was a browser plugin called Third Voice that did this. I seem to remember people got concerned that it would lead to "graffiti-ing" of websites. I don't remember what happened to it.

Best I can find, there's one brief lesbian kiss right at the end of the last season - which also featured a straight relationship with kissing - in a TV-PG rated show that seems to have made everyone lose their damned minds.
It is not. Significantly more people died in WWII. Taiping rebellion is third if ordered mu causalities, WWII first.

My family doesn't have a history of ladder accidents, but I'm not looking to be the one who starts that legacy either.
It might even help your odds.

My company desperately needs people but also instituted a hiring freeze. We're not canceling any existing interviews and will treat those candidates like normal. I would suspect they have a much higher chance of acceptance given that it will be the last opportunity for teams to increase headcount for a while.
There are a lot of automotive standards that address pedestrian safety, other crash testing besides the ones for passengers. This is why pop up headlights and hood ornaments are rarely used now for example.
I'm sure it depends on what skills you have.
> In practice, scientific computing users rely on the NumPy family of libraries e.g. NumPy, SciPy, TensorFlow, PyTorch, CuPy, JAX, etc..

this is a somewhat confusing statement. most of these libraries actually don't rely on numpy. e.g. tensorflow ultimately wraps c++/eigen tensors [0] and numpy enters somewhere higher up in their python integration

But that is kind of my point. There are plenty of reasons to use Rust that have nothing to do with performance. My brief toe-dip into the Rust world loves the static types, good dependency management, and single executable deployment. That it is faster than my standard language is just the cherry on top.
Look at the Green Arrays F18, the "conclusion" that Forth reached:

https://www.greenarraychips.com/home/documents/greg/PB003-11...

Here's a clear description of what each instruction does:

https://colorforth.github.io/forth.html

Hilariously, the system has no logical OR, only AND and XOR and NOT, because "Inclusive-or is rarely needed."

This system was designed by Chuck Moore, father of Forth. Here is an entertaining video of him explaining the F18A stack machine and programming system:

This is such a simple machine. I am planning to make a tiny emulator for my site. One could probably write an emulator in 80 lines of Go (one goroutine for each of the 144 cores).
For sure. But the destructive wake of people with actual NPD is so large, it is a relatively stable rate.
It all adds up to what I call the 'overhead of living problem'.

I am not sure to be honest, as I don't ride anymore(I figured 3rd strike will be the one that gets me).

There is a quote that seems to ring true to me: "There's two types of riders; those who have crashed, and those who will." Most new riders don't believe it, but the truth is that whether you crash or not is almost never in your control, and being naive of this will just get you killed faster. Unfortunately, death seems to be something that is ever present if you are part of a bigger rider community, a lot of riders know someone close that passed away.
Looks and sounds like event sourcing.
We've looked at Yjs but ultimately decided to write our own thing from scratch.

Even scale-ups with thousands of users will have people working on different parts of the document tree in practice. The client doesn't need to receive every keystroke for people editing somewhere far away in the document tree. Those updates can be sent in batches every once in a while.

If 10.000 people decide to edit the exact same location in a document then performance will degrade. The client will start to lag behind if it can't keep up with the stream of updates (cpu or internet bottleneck) but eventually it will process everything and all clients will end up with the same state. We have two channels. One for state updates (soft real-time) and one for UI hints ("hard" real-time) and other user actions that aren't CRDT mutations.
That's what it says in the textbook, but you are woefully misinformed if you believe that this strongly matches reality, especially for individuals and smaller players in this thing.

Ideally, I would add three graphs to the post:

(1) Table size on the x-axis, and time on the y-axis for index merge vs composite index

(2) Number of columns on the x-axis, and time on the y-axis for both

(3) Number of final matches on the x-axis, and time on the y-axis for both

But ran out of time and decided to test with the table size of 10M rows, and a 100-ish result set. That's in my experience a decent representation for what you might be doing with a relational database.

This is an emphatic no. Thermophiles are bacteria and archea. We are not that. We evolved during period of mild geological climate. We move out of this period we will cease to exist as a species. Which I am not against.
Postgres is capable of doing this with some index types, but generally more slowly than a B-tree index being asked about its leftmost columns:

Also worth noting that for very complex workloads that need to support arbitrary subsets of equality matches over columns, a Bloom filter might work best:

I wound up creating two. One is on hachyderm.io, which is a medium-large instance with lots of k8s nerds. The other is self hosted.

I’m leaning towards just keeping the hachyderm account. Self hosting on digital ocean is a bit more than $50/mo. Instance is underutilized with basically just me on there. I think I’ll maintain a self-hosted fediverse home, but:

- I want to run it in my homelab to avoid cloud fees

- I’ll move from Mastodon to something lighter, like maybe Pleroma.

- I need to figure out how to bootstrap enough subscriptions to make an independent instance useful.

Really, I think we need more managed hosting options. The only one I know of is masto.host, and they’ve frozen signups.
Cool. Might try this for creating some assets in the future.

While I agree that styling elements that are outright pedestrian harmful(a row of spear heads across the grill, etc) should be banned, I also HATE the way that these same regulations are making all cars look the same. Maybe folks who don't like cars don't care. I DO care what a car looks like.

As someone who also would not like to meet his demise by an errant vehicle, I think I would rather see a bunch of safety tech designed to not hit pedestrians in the first place would be ideal. Auto stop seems to be getting pretty good and while you could never eliminate vehicle to pedestrian crashes(suicide by car is likely impossible to protect against in many scenarios) But I hope we can stop making all the cars look like a shin destroying tear drop. :)

Remind me, what was that thing Obama did?
Classically, I think that scripts are small/one-off bits that were written in an immediate language like Bash or maybe Python.

Scripts I think are meant to be run by tech people so might lack documentation, error checking, etc.

Often you'd write a script to set up the environment for a program; paths, environment variables, rotate previous logs and write PID files.
Small scripts can evolve, and if they are part of an important program, can be more complex.

Programmers tend to write programs, while system admins used to write the bulk of scripts.

I'm not sure these divisions are as clear anymore, but that feels like how things originally evolved.
Nazism existed in 1927. It started right after WWI. Beer Hall Putsch was in 1923. 1927 is when Hitler got the right to speak in public back. The movement was considerably large at that time and publicly very much known about.

Hitler gained complete control over Germany in 1933.

It's not that unusual to see swastikas in their appropriate context among the various Indian communities living in Canada; I've seen them on homes, temples and on Diwali holiday cards.

> "It's nothing with Hitler. We don't follow Hitler. We don't follow even extremist people right now, okay? We are a religion against that," he said. "Believe me I don't know that's his symbol. That's a Hitler's symbol? I don't know."

Naive is a little harsh, but maybe it's the right word. It's usually not trolling. When I was a kid, a family in our neighbourhood, recent Chinese immigrants, initially chose the English name Adolph for their son. They'd certainly heard of Hitler; but they were unaware of the intensity of the name taboo.
> Generally they make 25-50% more than a similar level vanilla software engineer.

It's often even less in my experience. Despite having a "unicorn" skillset (soft-skills, advanced degree, domain experience, and SWE experience), I make about as much as a vanilla SWE. There are a huge number of inexperienced PhDs that want into the field, and we are flooded with resumes every time a DS leaves. Also, most of the time, models don't really matter. What makes or breaks most DS projects is soft-skills, stakeholder management, and data cleaning / feature engineering.

In the Jewish Roman wars, the Jews murdered 250k men, women and children on the island of Cypress, skinning them and boiling their flesh, and they also completely depopulated Lybia and did similar things in Alexandria. The result? The Romans renamed Judea to Palestine, cypress passed a law that activated instant death penalty on any Jews who landed on the island. Maybe that was the origin of modern day antisemitism? Maybe we don’t move on from stuff like this, instead it becomes racism. Maybe we can be different this time and not say that all these ancient religions (including ancient Germanic paganism) are evil.
