Holtz said last night he does not work for Twitter, and is focused on what he's passionate about which is solving self-driving car automation.
The other factor unaddressed here is methylation. To form a complete human person, as far as we know, you must have one set of chromosomes from a female imprinted via an ovum and another from a male imprinted via a sperm. If this doesn't take place, you may have strange genetic symptoms. Male bodies deactivate certain genes and reactivate some others so that, when combined with the way in which female bodies do the same thing, the resultant genome has a full set of proteins sufficient to form of a homestatically stable human.

When this goes wrong, genetic disease can occur such as what happens with Angel man and Prader willi syndrome, which is caused by the exact same mutation but dependent on the sex of the parent it was inherited from.

> systemd-coredump is honestly incredibly useful. Any time an application randomly crashes in the background, you can easily pop it in a debugger to look through the backtrace without having to re-run it.

coredumps are of course incredibly useful, as they have been for decades. Couldn't live without them.

Is systemd adding any value here other than making things more complex and brittle?
GitLab Support team member here.

As a work-around, if you know the name of the existing branch you want to switch to, you can change the URL in your browser's location bar for the IDE. Here's the URL format:

https://gitlab.com/-/ide/project/<namespace>/[<subgroup>/...]<project>/edit/<branch>/-/

This will re-load the IDE on the different branch.

You can also switch branches in the GitLab UI's Files view, before launching the Web IDE with the "Web IDE" button (or the `.` shortcut).

Also pressing "Web IDE" from an MR in GitLab will open that MR's branch in the Web IDE.

So it depends upon your workflow currently, but I agree it will be nice to be able to swap within the IDE itself later (also when the GitLab Flow extension is added).

The built-in git support in Code is already an improvement over the old Web IDE's Stage/Commit workflow, IMHO, and after the first load, the new Web IDE also loads faster than the old one, for me at least.
I was thinking the same sort of things but my understanding was the sperm that carries

This the current most used model. It trades having to do expensive mixing on the server with more bandwidth and vise streams on the clients.

Since each participant sends several resolutions, each receiver will only get what they ask for. In a “gallery” style view, each video is not in full HD, for example.
Hmm. If anyone can suggest a better title (i.e. more accurate and neutral, preferably using representative language from the article), we can change it again.
I'm no longer religious, but my parents—both PhDs—are.

Their take on this has always been along the lines of "The Bible says God created the world, and all the creatures in it. Evolution is the tool He used in that creation process."

So long as you're not dogmatic and don't insist on treating the Bible—particularly any one particular edition—as absolute, ironclad Truth, religion and science are absolutely not incompatible. Many of the professors—both sciences and humanities—at the college they both work at also go to their church (American Episcopal, fwiw).
No, it doesn't really encourage closed off instances.

I've been using for a while and, especially during recent times,my gut says the author's just wrong here; not my experience and also not likely to happen -- even if that's what some people think they want.

My belief is that the collective "want" for something like Twitter, plus the superior model for doing so, will drive Mastodon to be effectively the new Twitter.

Roughly, I think the human desire to "be up on everything" aka the desire for a "town square" will override this "divided up little spaces" thing.

Two things make me optimistic about that. The first is the personal experience of watching a strong push for "Content Warnings" and the subsequent mostly-dismantling of that idea (owing to the fact that it became apparent that the sort of thing some people wanted to be warned against was also the very thing you should be paying attention to, mostly in the realm of racism).

But the second and bigger feels like the killer here, if companies are smart enough to figure it out.

On Mastodon, companies and corporations can be their OWN primary source of truth. No Eli Lilly Situation. They're starting to catch on.
1984 - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/6541168/

> A laminar-flow fractionation method, developed primarily for removing dead sperm from human semen, was successfully modified to enrich X and Y sperm to 80% purity, and to characterize each enriched fraction for individual swimming behavior. Y-sperm fractions were rapidly detected by fluorescent cytogenetic staining. Subsequently, the degree of enrichment was quantitated with DNA extracted from each sperm fraction probed with a human male-specific recombinant DNA clone. In stationary fluid, X and Y sperm swam in circles with the same average speed. However, in a flowstream, X sperm shifted to a nearly straight path of movement in a significantly decreased angular velocity. This shift was four times more pronounced in X sperm than in Y sperm, especially after the initial transition from stationary fluid to flow. The velocity gradient across the flow axis was essential for separating X and Y sperm; uniform flow velocity did not separate them effectively.

AMA Journal of Ethics - Sex Selection for Family Balancing https://journalofethics.ama-assn.org/article/sex-selection-f...

> Currently, there are three available methods for sex selection. The first option is prefertilization sperm sorting using flow cytometry, which can provide a semen sample enriched with sperm that bear the desired sex chromosome. Its accuracy is in the 84-92 percent range, and it is not yet available in the US [6, 7]. At the opposite end of the spectrum, the most extreme form of sex selection occurs after conception in the form of elective termination of pregnancy if prenatal testing shows the sex of the fetus is the opposite of that desired. In certain regions of the world, such as India, such procedures are commonly performed, despite being illegal [8, 9].
Doubtful. Males methylate their X chromosomes differently from females during the production of gametes.

I do use a password manager.

PortableSecret is a complement, not a replacement.

e.g. where do you store the recovery key for your password manager?

I also use this to store tax documents and other mildly secret documents which definitely don't belong in a password manager that copies to who-knows-where-and-in-how-many-copies.

It's surprising to me that effective knowledge of C and/or C++ is the stumbling block for contributing to the core of the JVM.

I work at a company with one large C++ codebase, and also many Go projects where C and C++ knowledge are helpful. We have trouble hiring good C++ developers, because our candidate pool starts as "people who want to write web applications".

But if you're already restricted to people who want to work on an extremely mature compiler, VM, and JIT - is lack of C knowledge really what's making it hard to hire people? These are people who are likely to end up reading kernel code and C-defined ABI documentation and etc. etc. even if the codebase is 100% Java...
Jami has "Swarm" conversations, which are git-backed behind the scenes, and can be synchronized across multiple devices and/or participants seamlessly. Actually, thanks to the way Jami uses git, a subset of participants in a group conversation could enter a local network and continue chatting amongst themselves, and once they connect with the rest of the participants again their histories will automatically be synchronized and merged.

You can read more about Swarm here: https://jami.net/synchronizing-conversation-history-with-swa...

To add a new device, from account settings select 'Link another device'. This will create an encrypted archive of your account details and temporarily (for 10 minutes) put it on the OpenDHT network, and give you a PIN which you would use on your new device to have Jami retrieve and import your account. You could also do this manually and without going through OpenDHT, by having Jami create a local backup of your account on your current device, and then transfer the backup archive onto your new device yourself, and import it into Jami. After adding the new device, your Swarm conversations and their histories will begin synchronizing shortly.
>> It's worth asking why they can't get customers the traditional way, and why they have bandwidth internally to go to this amount of effort

Those seem like rhetorical questions designed to call them on the B.S. My new philosophy is not to ask those kind of questions, but instead (optionally) say why it's dumb, and (definitely) just don't bother with them.

When you ask those questions it lends legitimacy to what they're doing by offering thr chance to justify it. By shooting it down directly they would first have to address the dumb part.

It's called our public domain rights. Culture belongs to everyone, that's the natural way of things.

Tell HN: We Need a Distributed GitHub

I asked about that recently in another thread. Besides the argument that you can just make the panels bigger, the dust is also statically charged so it is sticky, and wiping it off is not easy. It is also amusing that we, as programmers, are inclined to suggest adding MOVING PARTS to a system that is not servicable, and that the same problem can be solved just by adding more of an already proven solution. It sounds like this one clever special mitigation that solves a minor problem, but instead brings the system down.
To be fair, there's a very real business reason for keeping login and sign-up prompts. I'm surprised he didn't recognize that as a founder. I imagine some PM panicking and running around after learning about the change.
I don’t see how. User replaceable batteries require extra protection around the battery and extra volume for the mechanisms required for taking it in and out.

They’ll never get the difference in lifespan and charge capacity to go to zero, but it might be able to get it low enough that a few more years of hardware improvements will cancel out the difference.
Simply to get stronger.

I've been running through the problem in my head from a theoretical perspective but am in a similar situation in regards to familiarity with tooling.

The depth map encodes an array of relative positions, but without knowing the camera settings, field of view, etc. mapping them back to a coordinate is a guess. Luckily if you are rendering your initial depth map from a 3d model, you can use the camera settings to get the information you need to convert a depth map back into a correct array of 3d pixel coordinates.

You can use those pixel coordinates, which you know lie along existing surfaces, to subdivide the mesh to add complexity where needed. Then when you generate the new image and corresponding depth map, you can project those into 3d space using the same camera settings. You will need to filter out coordinates that are past some margin of error from the existing mesh and then use those to push and pull the existing mesh faces.

Map your textures onto your updated mesh and then also generate a confidence texture. The more each face points towards the camera the more confident you can be about the texture there.

Then move / rotate the camera and repeat, but this time also render the model with the confidence texture to generate an inpainting mask image. Continue from different positions / angles until the scene or model has been full textured with a high degree of confidence across the entire texture.

That depends on what you eventually want to use the money for. Don't put your 6 month emergency fund in stocks or index funds! If you get laid off along with everyone else, stocks will be down, and that means the money you set aside for an emergency is gone!
This won't work. Male genomes are imprinted to form a placenta. For example, when embryos receive two sets of genes from a male and none from the female, they turn into molar pregnancies (a giant, aggressive placenta). Embryos receiving both set from a female and none from a male do not form a placenta and can't implant.
The value in this may be in tokenizing data for privacy in web applications. An example would be medical test results, where you are the lab and to meet privacy requirements, you don't want to show them to every party involved in processing and billing, but the blob has to be stored and transmitted to the patient and their physician.

The secret/key management part is just an OOB secret, and provided it's in the form of a long passphrase, it should be sufficient, and doesn't rely on patients and regular people doing key management or maintaining keypairs. You just send them the passphrase in the physical mail or some other channel. If they lose it, you just generate another token blob with a new passphrase, etc.

That use case may be declining as privacy rules have been gutted lately, but WebCrypto could facilitate some interesting new protocols for a variety of cases.
The equation is better expressed as "Build versus Buy", imho.

Actually it seems to me to be a 'natural law' of software development - no matter the discipline/industry/inkling - that on certain event horizons, one must decide whether to build something, or buy it.

For many people, the act itself is all that matters.

For some, its the users who decide.
Expecting investors to vote against their own financial interests for the greater good is a terrible system. 3M investors only care because of the threat of lawsuits and other legal trouble; those are the mechanisms we need to improve. Stricter environmental rules and enforcement will force companies to reduce harmful externalities. The shareholder pressure is incidental.

Free markets are generally bad at handling pollution because the costs are so diffuse and long term; there's often a way to increase profits at the expense of someone else's health in a manner that can't be precisely quantified immediately.
This issue has been talked about quite a bit over the past few years and to me it comes down fundamentally to incentives academics have to keep churning papers because that's what they get measured on. Of course the good thing about that is that you can change the incentives, just as how science funding changed significantly post WW2, but I'm afraid just like in many problematic areas of society nowadays there is a large group of people who benefit from this situation and are hence hostile to any sort of change. As such if change does come I think it will have to be top down rather than bottom up.

For an interesting perspective the physicist Murray Gell-Mann spoke on similar issues in a 1997 interview:

Of sex characteristics, I mean if I was attempting to be accurate as possible to what sex is, it'd be some composite of morphology, chromosomes and gamete structures, which would place most humans in two main tranches, but some individuals would fall in between or outside of those two, which sounds a lot like a spectrum to me.
What do algebraic topologist do?
I'm on the fence on this. From one angle it looks like a conflict of interests, from another one looks like the opposite of a conflict.

1. Conflict: Microsoft becomes a large shareholder in company X, then uses their seat to steer that company into using Azure rather than AWS, despite AWS offering a better deal. Bad.

2. Alignment: Company X wants to get Azure cloud services. It tells Microsoft if their offering is so great, are they willing to get paid in stock rather than cash? If Azure lowers the company's compute costs by tens of millions per year, then the company will show an improved income statement, analysts will love that, the stock will skyrocket, and Microsoft ends up better with the stock than with cash. Microsoft is incentivized to provide the best user experience. Good.
> The argument looks like it's based on large n asymptotics, so even assuming everything works correctly the strongest statement they can hope to show is that the theorem is true for all n > n_0, where n_0 is some large constant. But there is no mention of this fact. The theorem is claimed for all n.

> I might have not discerning enough taste but I honestly can't tell between 1 day or 2 day dough

I do sourdough, so I use a levain not a dry yeast, but I have done many 2-day doughs (48 hours rest in the fridge) and many 1-day doughs (24 hours in the fridge), and yes, I can easily tell the difference, and I prefer the 2-day dough, and will always do that timeline when schedule permits.

Serious eats reached similar conclusions: https://www.seriouseats.com/the-pizza-lab-how-long-should-i-...

NB thier "day 1" is same day: "Each day (including the first before it went in the fridge), I pulled out a 6-ounce chunk of it... and baked it"

So what I call a "two-day dough" with about 48 hours in the fridge, is what they call "day 3", which isn't wrong: Thursday, Friday, Saturday are 3 days; Thursday afternoon to to Saturday afternoon is 2 days. Dough made on Thursday rests for 2 days before Saturday, and Saturday is the third day.

I agree with them on the dough that rested 24 hours or less though - "tight, small-holed structure ... The flavor of the crumb was ... one dimensional". It is spongy and bready. Not bad, just bland.

This is the dumbest assessment of the fediverse I've seen in a month full of dumb assessments of the fediverse.

For all the talk of peculiar rules, I haven't seen any servers with peculiar rules. There seems to be a general understanding that a server may be set up to focus on tabletop gamers, or STEM nerds, or journalists, that doesn't mean they can't also talk about politics, or movies, or whatever they want.

But ultimately, even if the fever dream hypothetical dystopia were real, people are free to set up their own dedicated servers just for themselves. That is, in fact, a point in favor of the federation model. There are a number of dedicated mastodon hosts already[0] for those who don't want to roll their own from scratch, and more will probably come online with time.

Just a really, really dumb assessment.
