It blew my mind when I was able to set the viewport pointer to where my program code was, and SEE THE CODE AS IT RAN. Like, watch the bits flip as counters incremented, etc etc.

It was a wonderful, impactful lesson in foundations of software engineering, before I even knew what any of that meant.
Unsurprisingly, given the linguistic similarity, it's same in Polish ("babie lato"). But that's sexist and ageist, of course.
I find it interesting that the article mentions the government is working with “hoteliers” multiple times, and then randomly inserts:

> One specific measure, for example, would target day visitors, many of whom drive in from around the Netherlands, as well as from neighboring countries including Germany, and sleep in their cars instead of staying in a hotel.

The measure is not specified, nor explained. Sounds more like the gov/hotels are annoyed that some tourists don’t book rooms, but want to find ways to make them.

This makes me suspicious that the campaign is unfairly influenced by lobbying groups for hoteliers/etc, rather than a real concern for the local residents…
If Hey has shown me anything, it is that Hotwire IMO is a complete gimmick. The frontend of Hey had so many issues for me. I used used hey from release until about a month or two ago, and it was the terrible UXUI experience that pushed me to cancel. Weird loading issues, things would update after performing actions, not loading in place correctly etc.

That's the point: I wouldn't gain any money by not taking the loan either. I gained the "money" (wealth, really) by my house appreciating in value. Anyway I'm not advocating that everybody borrow against every shred of equity in their house, just noting that this temptation exists. If my house is worth more suddenly, my spending can increase suddenly, without my even having to move. Whether or not this is wise is a separate discussion.

These "purity" movements will eventually come for everybody.

I don't think it is even fair to call what these "far left" people are doing "far left" because they're not actually pushing any new position and if anything are drifting to the right on a number of economic issues that were previously center stage. They are just employing extremist tactics on already broadly accepted positions, and looking for opportunities to edge lord.
I expected some psychological insights, something, but this was it:

Strongest signs that your pet is dead (by VetenariansToday):

- doesn't respond to you

- doesn't eat

- doesn't want to take a walk

- doesn't pee or poop

- smells funny

- there is no heartbeat

If you see these signs in your pet, chances are your pet is dead. This is not the end of the world. Pets die for all sorts of reason, but if you think it may have been because of you, this is an opportunity to reflect and learn. Going forward, remember that there are plenty of pets in the pet shop.

> I wonder if “trigger warning” has been labeled offensive because those doing the labeling have realized it’s become a joke

No, the discourse about the problematic nature of the “trigger warning” as a flag for advisories of potentially-offensive content and the way it (and some other related terminology adopted around the same time) was grounded in a misapplication of terminology and concepts surrounding PTSD in specific and trauma in general began very shortly after the term began popular and had nothing to do with the insensitive dismissal of what the term is a label for (in fact, it is largely diametrically opposed, which is why that the kind of people who dismiss the need for the concerns about content have embraced the misapplication of “trigger” that it involves for their own attacks.)

Ask HN: Best private email on your own domain in 2022?
It seems that these days email isn't just a means of communication, but it also serves as our identity. I've been using Gmail forever, but trust Google less and less given their stance on privacy. I also finally started caring enough about owning my own domain so I'm not at the mercy of Google if they decide to change T&C at some point in the future.

Having looked at options available, I'm not sure what a good email solution would look like. It seems I can go for Google Workspaces, but that isn't solving the trust problem. (side question - if I have my own server, but use Gmail as client, would google still read my data?). Fastmail has good reviews, but I'm not sure if spam and ease of use would be ok? If you have migrated away from Google, MS or Yahoo and started hosting yourself of using a private paid-for email solution, what would you recommend?

Here is a short-ish list of my requirements:

- Own domain (@my-own.com, not @gmail.com)

- Good spam filtering

- Secure (and trustable)

- No issues with deliverability or blacklisting

- As hassle-free as possible. I want to pay to avoid setting up my own servers

Food poisoning from improper handling of rice is sufficiently common to have inspired studies on the risk. Here's one that's thorough from an age when public health still mattered: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2130471/. The meat is on p. 440 - 10^5 - 10^8 colony-forming units is danger territory. Note - it's not the bacteria themselves that cause symptoms, it's an exotoxin that sends people to the bathroom, don't kid yourself into believing you "have immunity" or something.

It's really a mystery why the government is so incautious with the matter, food poisoning in the very young and elderly is life-threatening. If you are young and healthy you'll survive, but for 48 hours it's a beastly experience that you are better off without. My theory is institutional capture by business interests, after CDC shortened COVID isolation guidelines upon the insistence of the airline industry no one should ever believe a word from them ever again. Imagine people went off rice - it's big business in Arkansas!

Yes, get the degree (as long as you’re ok with the cost / debt burden, which you did not mention).

It’s very, very unlikely IMO that AI will take our jobs in the next 5-10 years. But I think the demand for good ML engineers will stay strong. Having a master’s in this is a big leg up, it’s hard for people to learn ML well without formal education.

Also, education is a great way to ride out the current crappy job market.

To me, your entire comment feels incredibly snobby. It's like you see people who use streaming services as lesser people, just because they use a different way to listen to music. It also feels like that opinion is based on an incredibly limited assumption of how people use streaming services.

GB Interceptor: A Game Boy capture cartridge
I clicked on the link thinking: "sigh, another woke propaganda campaign".

"Brave", oh wow, and no alternatives either. "Geronimo", ok, I can kinda get behind that one: I mean, we don't want someone using "Gandalf" or "Gandhi" in similar vein, I suppose. "For god & country, gandhi, gandhi, gandhi" would be kinda weird (chuckled softly).

"Guru" -- :O -- I have always felt we diminished the weight of this word in the western, English speaking world. "Pundit"/"Pandit" & "Guru" have the same connotations as "sir" in my home country but when I came to the US I was mildly disappointed they had very different connotations than "sir" did -- even outside formal contexts.

Then it hit me: Oh snap! Now I get it! I get why someone else may feel the same way about "Geronimo" or "Brave" or "Bury the hatchet". Those are words that _I_ obviously discovered through Western/English-speaking cultures. Perhaps, if the medium was not-English then those words wouldn't carry with them the same connotations that didn't originate from the rightful heirs of that culture.

[The point]: I literally went from thinking "oh, great, more policing of words", when I read the headline, to "Hm, I get it" / "I support this effort". I'm seeing a lot of HN comments tend to lean on the side of taking issue with the post & the effort. I hope sharing my (contrasting) perspective helps.

The OpenZFS project added support for ZSTD a while ago for transparent compression, and it's fantastic. I was seeing substantial compression rates given the type of data we were storing for basically free.
The problem with Colab is that I tend to run into two issues:

1. Disconnect during training
2. Not enough storage

I tends to work on somewhat mid/large models and TB+ datasets so I run into these issues frequently enough that it's become a hurdle I want to avoid going forward. I suspect this might make online compute expensive too though I've not looked at pricing plans. Where would you recommend buying personal cloud compute?
It's tempting to think that way but maybe it's worthwhile rephrasing the question as "is it worth getting a Masters degree at all?" In some fields the answer is clearly yes, in others not so much. Where does CS fall in that spectrum? I think you could spend a couple years doing some great research that will serve you well in your future career, even if advances in the area you're interested in are outpacing your work. A lot of it is about the mindset of a researcher vs. a practitioner and of course we all want to be both.

Some professors are better than others, though, I think the value you get will depend a lot on that.
I try not to question the intelligence of others that I don't know, but this might be a case where that's merited. Leaving aside whether words can cause harm (which - I don't know, maybe they can), there are a fair number of logical inconsistencies and standards for what makes the list, as well as just factual errors.

For example "balls to the wall" comes from aviation (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/balls_to_the_wall) and not from human anatomy. Even when the source of that expression is well attributed, later on the list goes on to call out "rule of thumb" even though it says it is unable to attribute the source of that expression (and, yes, maybe there is a violent past to it, but also: a person's thumb is about an inch, a useful way of measuring things of that size scale). And of course, they suggest instead of rule of thumb "standard rule," even though the etymology of "standard" involved "stand" - which elsewhere seems something the list would consider ableist.

Man in some context means an adult human male, but sometimes it just means any human (see https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/man). When Neal Armstrong said "... one giant leap for mankind," he was not speaking on behalf of the species. Some groups of Christians have a prayer that reads in part "for us men..." which is prayed equally by the female members of the congregation. There are plenty of cases where the word "men" is equally clear that we're referring to all members of the human species.

And the word "guys" is routinely used to refer to a group that is not just men. People use it all the time, everyone knows what we mean, it does not cause offense, and in using it to refer to a group you are no more implying that the group is all male as you are implying that the group is composed of clones of Guy Fawkes (from whom the term originated).

Besides ones where just facts are getting in the way, there are also many that just seem ineffectual. For example, "the use of person-first language" - In English, adjectives come first. Sometimes English makes use of substantives, either directly or as lone words from other languages. When you put the word "person" first, you aren't magically changing how people construe that sentence - if someone wants to be uncharitable and define someone entirely by a characteristic, they probably will, and the rest of us will go on understanding that each of us can be described in multiple ways depending on the context.

The "Latinx" also needs to go. Every poll I've seen indicates that the people whom it was meant to describe don't care for it, and find it disrespectful of their linguistic heritage.
I have to agree on this one, it feels like some people are in denial of type issues within the Ruby / Rails community.

Great, another excuse for the automakers to keep prices high. But the truth is that they're shooting themselves in the foot. I simply refuse to buy a new vehicle until we see significant deflation in the auto markets. And I'm not the only one. Nobody wants to play this stupid game with these greedy bastards, especially not when wages haven't budged an inch to keep up with inflation.
That's gonna be a fun one to watch if they ever follow up on this reasoning, given that at this point, most land-dwelling animals are "subservient to the charity of humans". Those that aren't are either hiding in few undeveloped areas, or gone extinct.

> This isn't about "celebrities" (a word I never used), it's about popular people all around, like authors, journalists, and so on.

I don't want to quibble over terms. Celebrities, popular people, whatever you want to call them.

> And popular figures absolutely interact with and reply to tons of their followers quite frequently, that's the whole point.

And popular people have plenty of places where they can do that. But why does everyplace have to be amenable to people with 10+ million followers?

> But to argue that a place like Mastodon should make it impossible for anybody to be popular, is ludicrous.

That's a straw man. It's simply a question of whether it's technically/financially feasible to scale to that level. And there's no reason why it has to be. I don't see why it needs to be designed around the needs of super popular people.

> The idea that an author with only a few followers could have a best-selling book, and then at some point enthusiastic readers try to follow them

It's possible for a person to outgrow a place. That doesn't mean there was anything wrong with the original place. Popular people have different needs than non-popular people, but that doesn't mean we have to cater to popular people as a prime directive.

I find it ludicrous that every social space on the web would have to make itself accessible to celebrities (my word), as if it were a legal requirement like making it accessible to the disabled. Celebrities are not a protected class. ;-)

The sites that cater to celebrities are supported by advertising. They need all the eyeballs brought by celebrities. Mastodon does not have advertising. It doesn't have the same incentives. That's not a flaw, it's just a different set of choices and priorities.

Seems like the real story here is that iRobot can't protect the data it records from its own internal reviews and R&D process, so the people who were paranoid about "they're watching you" are actually MORE justified, because not only do we need to worry about deliberate watching, but also the company's general incompetence with data security.

> child prostitute, child who has been trafficked, Using person-first language helps to not define people by just one of their characteristics.

I'm sorry, but I'm aghast (is that term okay, or is it too close to "ghost", which suggests "death", which might be triggering for somebody who knows somebody who died?) that somebody was able to type this out - a suggestion of a "more sensitive" term for a child involved in prostitution, ostensibly to "not define people by just one of their characteristics" - and wasn't immediately shocked into deleting it right away.
similar to the legality of unpleasant speech .. a private venue does have the right to exclude because it is.. privately owned.

Instead of taking to the streets (or social media) in righteous anger, I suggest considering your economic support right now, of companies that build and operate societal surveillance machinery; that build and operate companies that rely on indentured servitude; companies that build and operate private shopping areas with pleasing music and eye-catching ads while paving the living earth and hiring private snoopers. worthy of scrutiny and operating widely today in your town, no?
