Use mamba instead of conda to install your packages, and always use the conda-forge channel. mamba is essentially a drop-in replacement. I have always found conda to be horribly slow for installing packages. For environments:

- `conda env create|list|remove` commands to manage them

- `conda activate <env name>` to enter your environment

- `conda deactivate` to return to your base environment

If you want to use a conda environment in jupyter, you must install ipykernel and create a kernel definition for your environment:

conda activate <env name>
mamba install -c conda-forge ipykernel
ipython kernel install --user --name <env name>

In practice I have found anacondas environment management and usage to be pretty seamless.
15 characters ago feels excessive, I get maybe 1-2 at 120-140wpm. Do you know what your ping to the US east coast is?
In principle SRAM is just flip-flops, and flip-flops are just logic. I realize that in practice SRAM isn't implemented quite this way, but if logic transistors continue shrinking, maybe it's time to think about doing so?
well yea, because your parents were essentially slaves, the property of higher elite classes. I'm pointing to the class relationship, nothing specific to your parents.

I wonder if such practices were used in schools reserved for royalty and other nobles in the UK
It's rich that the author unfavorably compares python's docs to go's. Go's documentation is barely more than API auto-doc level documentation: and many if not most of the open source projects using it have followed suit. It's some of the worst documentation out there, in my opinion.
Most inner-ring streetcar suburbs of old major cities are like that. Nassau County in New York, the North Shore in Chicago, anything off the Green Line in Boston.
There is no reason to start a new project in python IMO. Existing ones should be deprecated.

the packaging ecosystem alone is enough to make anyone mad. I maintained a production system in python for a few years a while back and code refactoring was extremely painful.

I hope I'll never touch python again.
If you're going to be in Boston at some point I'd be happy to have you over to talk about this, and you'd be welcome to look around the house.

But this is not that I have nothing to hide, it's that a strategy of hiding is much more risky than most people think it is.

Yeah and the best defense you have to your position is a ridiculous example about a pencil. You can't engage with the hypo because you can't genuinely make your argument in it, so you are talking about pencils. I'm not stupid. Your argument is a personal attack to everyone's intelligence because it's so specious.
There have been large scale controlled studies on masking (via recommending mask usage, sending masks, etc. to a randomly selected group of villages / districts). They showed that masking has a moderate effect on COVID spread.
I don’t agree with anything in this rant except for “Python is slow”.
2-6 could also be described as 'political furor'.
500$ is a quite average price for the country I live in. Of course I don't mean cheap airlines, only the national ones.
Well, shameless plug.

https://superintendent.app (paid with free trial) enables you to load a bunch of CSVs and write SQL on those CSV files.

It's a much faster to work with if you know SQL well. It can also handle millions of rows easily (e.g. Loading 1GB CSV file takes 10s on Macbook Pro). Excel can't load a CSV larger than 1M rows.

I initially built it because I had to identify the mismatched transactions between 2 giant CSVs using. Using "full outer join" with Superintendent.app took only a minute to do.
I apologise, I’ve not read literature on it, or the particular methodology you describe. I’m not judging you.

That said, whatever the merits of a structured approach, for every parent that diligently follows them, there are others that are less careful. And I’ve met them.

I’m responding to sentiments like “I just ignore them and they go to sleep eventually”, “don’t go and check, he only wants attention” from other parents, and other reports from someone I know who is a midwife.

The model we followed was “Hand in hand”, which resonated for us. And we were saddened that that philosophy does not seem to be very mainstream amongst parents I have met.
And they block that domain again. Domain has been up for over 5 years so it’s something my users know.
That's good news. There was a lot of drama in the late 90s when I lived there, because a widow was being kicked out of a house on Santa Ynez. I'd guess that was on-campus and maybe the reason for a change.
Unintended consequences of blocking IP addresses
The best webcomic hosting site I'm aware of is ComicFury. Its not very well known, probably because its layout is very early 2000s, but it's loaded with features, and allows custom layouts like Tumblr.
This should be higher, that's exactly how it went.

The FDA even said: "both hydroxychloroquine and chloroquine phosphate “have shown activity in laboratory studies against coronaviruses,”", but they stressed it was not proven yet. i.e. your step 1 was based on current evidence.

Then everything went insane exactly as you describe.

Yes-- there are a plethora of examples. Here is one page full of them, and I doubt these are all mandated: https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-watch/apple-watch-ultra

Brightness, battery, cell support, limited water and dust resistance, etc. are the most obvious ones. The footnotes list other details, including demographics on which certain features are less effective.

For example,

> Irregular rhythm notification requires the latest version of watchOS and iOS. It is not intended for use by people under 22 years old or those who have been previously diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AFib).

As someone else linked in the thread, it turns out Apple actually does claim their oximeter method is special and improves on conventional oximetry, accounting for the range of human skin tones: https://www.apple.com/healthcare/docs/site/Blood_Oxygen_app_...

If their O2 meter functions poorly depending on skin tone, that's very obviously worth noting in a footer.
Correct. Left foot on the clutch as I was (in every one of these situations) backing out slowly. Then I see the pedestrian, lift foot off the gas and jam it on the brake. I guess, in my panic, I don't move the right foot far enough to the left (to get it fully off the gas pedal).

This is part of why I hate nose-in parking.

Magnetic north moves in a fairly predictable way.

If you are in the UK you might be interested in Standup Maths’ video https://youtu.be/HcFvegnQpPo.

Currently true north and magnetic north are broadly the same in the UK - and over the next year or so, there is a point where grid north (Ordnance Survey maps) also coincides with both other “norths”. That point will track north over the UK.

The video shows Matt visiting Cornwall at a place where that point was.
let's poor one out for kobe here since his obituary was flagged off hn at the time.
The Brazilian team he played in, Santos, was not really a great team when Pele arrived... but once Pele showed up, that team became a win-everything team, 23 titles including two world championships, for over 10 years. Some claim Pele's Santos was one of the greatest teams to ever have played football. Wherever they went, it was a full house, and they did tour outside Brazil, but not very often, sure. In any case, Pele's fame is in no way exagerated. He won 3 world cups, something nearly unheard of even after all these years, won every championship Santos tried (his teammates were also amazing [1], of course - but Pele's prominency has never been questioned by anyone, specially his teammates) for a really long time... and he just made the game beautiful with every touch... watching his works in situations that did not even end up with a goal has always been as popular as watching his most amazing goals as I grew up.

Yeah, it definitely feels sluggish, so I assumed it was bugging out. It started pretty snappy and then slowed way down.

Ping tester says somewhere between 50 and 75ms to Amazon's Virginia center.
Getting the correct phone number and pin combo is step one. That's the four digit pin.

Step two is as many tries at the 2FA as you would like. The format is 0#####. It will take some time for sure, but you get to control the phone number as your prize

Alternatively, the 4-digit pin is the security for their support line. You can obtain that without guessing the 2FA. Social engineering takes care of the rest.
> And tech companies have some of the biggest war chests.

Most tech companies do, but if reports of Twitter's finances are to be believed, they do not.
Reminds me of some surveying data in the UK that was maintained by a BBC micro and a laser disk system.

Tesla's 'market' is hipsters who are well-to-do. Upper middle class and up, in history I think the biggest political car dealership owner was Henry Ford, and he himself supported the Nazi Party in the 30s and would've welcomed them with open arms had they breached the Atlantic.

Sure you can try and separate Elon the CEO from Elon the Twitter Influencer but he's saddled himself to Trump, and I for one wouldn't take a free Tesla. Ultimately Tesla's future is tied to Elon, the longer he's at the helm, the more likely the stock continues a downward trend. Same probably trends for all of his companies at this point.

You can't cater emotionally to the right, and hope to sell 70% of your goods to the left. Honestly, I even used to be a Musk Fan... probably if you check my comment history circa 2016-2017, the BFR, and the mars mission video had me jonesing for an interplanetary greyhound system which thus far hasn't even close to materialized on schedule. Since, a colony was supposed to be launched by 2024.

Most CEOs historically usually play close to center on politics, maybe they are openly dem/republican but they don't broadcast it all-day, till everyone is weary of listening to them rant.

False. There was an large scale international trial and it showed that HCQ did little to nothing to treat covid.

You cannot say “well you probably haven’t done this one, specific, highly unlikely thing for someone in the UK to do. So yeah caning probably worked, right!”

I haven’t knived anyone. I was never caned at school.

The absence of someone doing a thing is not proof of a thing doing what you believe it does.
It's not from supporting an earlier version but targeting an earlier version. You can support earlier versions and target a newer version. Presumably, that's what they're doing in 20, but it requires so many changes that it isn't worth their time to backport them to 19.

^ Wouldn't this apply to ChatGPT bots as well?
You actually being serious or snarky here ???.
The 'government' is responsible for a couple orders of magnitude more harm than 'criminals'. We're talking hundreds of millions deaths worldwide over the last century.

I'm much less concerned about the government knowing what the 'criminals' are talking about (there are plenty of other ways to track them) than I am with the government knowing what the citizens are planning on standing up for/against.
Python class syntax sucks. Other syntax is mostly nice. List comprehensions etc are great, I really wish I had those in c++. Plus, I wish I had a similarly useful standard library, repl, and package manager in c++.
Did you actually try running the code vs the formula and compared it works the same way in the expected cases?

The times I've tried using ChatGPT, it has mostly giving me code that seems like it'd work but doesn't.
This doesn't deserve to be downvoted, it is a perfectly apt description of many of NYC's newest skyscrapers.
Nationalistic flamewar will get you banned here, so please don't post like this. You can make your substantive points without it.

"Comments should get more thoughtful and substantive, not less, as a topic gets more divisive."
If you try to please everyone you end up without personality. Python has plenty of flaws but it feels also as a very distinct way of solving a vast range of problems. But its longevity will depend on how well its community can address legitimate complaints (which do not require it become all things to all people)
What is such low effort post doing here? I use Python way less than I used to, but this is just unfounded whining. And imagining js is better on those points... omfg.
My bad for assuming some bad faith. I start arguing with people on HN or Reddit…I’m being stupid.
>How is that going to happen? We're assuming the AI posts exactly like a human until the comment about Pepsi comes out. It'll be impossible to distinguish from a human, by assumption. Or are you going to just have the site reject everything which mentions Pepsi negatively?

You could have a reporting system.

>AIs don't need to be paid.

At scale, this sort of service is not going to be free. But I suppose AI could make it a lot cheaper.
Disagree on typing. Modern types, as evidenced by typescript, are very helpful and don’t incur significant verbosity cost. They are expensive in large projects during linting.

My personal recommendation is to use typing and mypy in all new code, coming from somebody who was celebrating new-style classes in 2.2.
I'm writing this will waiting for an validation run of a new project's MVP to finish running. The excitement building up to this, and how happy I'll be when (if, so not to jinx) it succeeds is palpable.
I’ll ask the ISP for the exact reason for blocking although I am certain it’s due to them profiting from selling IpTV services themselves.
I like this very much, it's suitably evil.
On other hand that is often the part of documentation with Python I would love to have. And for a while I have missed with many python things.
This game is pretty fun :)

Intentionally omitting context in order to mislead is still lying. Communicating with the intent of deception is lying. That's absolutely a common meaning of the term.

Lying: "The sky is hi-vis yellow"

Also lying: "Under Biden's EPA—can you believe this, folks?—the sky is blue. Here with us today is a scientist and fellow with the Bullshit Institute for Mercenary Science who will tell us why blue is the worst color for the sky to be, and Paul Ryan to tell us how bad this will be for American families."

The latter is a pattern that a lot of Fox News stories follow, to single out just one set of—yes!—liars; omit the context that it's entirely normal for the sky to be blue, suggest that it's a new thing that's a scheme of the current bogeyman and not long-standing policy, and don't even check to see if there are good reasons it's the way it is (or if you do know any, certainly don't mention them). Like, you can sit there and spot these (perhaps with the aid of a smartphone) all day long watching that channel—hey, gotta do something to stay entertained at the parents' house when they leave the damn TV on, tuned to cable news, all day every day, making conversation difficult. Seriously, it's constant, and my made-up version does condense the process but isn't an exaggeration (check out their extensive coverage of "secret nighttime illegal immigrant flights" for an example of the real deal—there was at least one day when that seemed like all they wanted to talk about, and it was a made-up story in exactly this fashion, but was being covered heavily even on the "real news" portions of their programming).

These cases are lies.

They go beyond making a case for one side, to turning a non-story into a story through lies of omission, entirely on purpose. That's lying. No need to make up facts, in order to lie.

("I argued that, although the media is often deceptive and misleading, it very rarely makes up facts." Yes, sure, OK, but the headline is wrong and he surely knows it—one might say it's a lie. Nb I usually like Slate Star Codex pieces quite a bit, and this one isn't even overall bad, but it's framed more click-baitily than it would be if it were honest, and people going "well ackshually nothing they said was technically false so it's not a lie" is the kind of incorrect pedantry that drives me up a wall)
So, one mistake is all is needed to fade away all other great things he did?
Ok, caps should work now! Please let me know if you're still having issues.
I'd add:

> When babies are sleep-trained (with the "cry it out" method), they don't actually sleep (much) longer; they wake up as often but have learned to not signal their parents.
Presumably you're someone quite well paid and can afford to pay a cleaner at western rates (I pay mine 15 GBP per hour in London).

A cleaner will clean better and faster than you, letting you not only enjoy a clean stress-free home, but also enabling you to make a more productive use of your time.
Out of all of that only packaging criticism is valid, it does suck. But poetry almost solves that.

You can add IP addresses of the NTP servers being used in the captive-portals.txt file, which serves records even before the operating system considers a network interface as active.

Or add cert_ignore_timestamp=true to the main configuration file. Initially, cert expiration won't be checked, but as soon as a DNS server will be reachable, this feature will automatically disable itself.

This is for dnscrypt-proxy. Alternative clients may have something similar.
How is everyone wrong except you?
No they don't use mobi. Amazon has two formats newer than mobi, AZW3 and KFX. Both support more features. Using mobi is like saving your Word docs as RTF these days.
I'm not sure if you're arguing for or against it, but for those who don't know, this is at its core sleep training. It doesn't require a parent to just throw their child into a crib, slam the door, and put in ear plugs. Anyone who ignores the needs of their child is cruel. That said, sometimes a child's needs are met and they just need to learn to go to sleep without someone patting their back.
This is a very weak rant, dude having a bad trying to get off on Python. Why is this on front page? So lame.

It brought to mind a similar talking point reported across far-right media:

The CDC's own official numbers drastically reduce the number of COVID deaths, or conflate them with other illnesses.

You could read the CDC page, and come to such conclusions, and write articles about them (and people did, and linked to those CDC pages even). However, to come away with this conclusion, you would have to ignore the lower part of the page titled, "Understanding the numbers", which goes into why and how they split up numbers due to co-morbidity. (i.e. Official cause of death might be pneumonia, but you most likely wouldn't have had a fatal case of pneumonia without COVID, not unlike cancer also causing a lot of pneumonia deaths.)

By this author's logic, these breathless articles aren't lying about the COVID numbers, they are just "missing context".

Intentionally misinterpreting CDC data, which is easily explained further on down the page, with the assumption that your readers will be too lazy and dumb to scroll down and read and/or understand it is fucking lying, and not incomplete context.

The author of course is making the point that censorship will always be hard, because people can make the argument that they are just reporting the facts. But the story is a simple one in some ways: It didn't used to be hard, because news media was trusted by the public because they exercised good editorial controls. The public trusted them, because they did a good enough job with it. The public lost that trust because they started to loosen standards due to declining revenues as a result of the internet.

The problem of censorship will be solved when somebody figures out a business model for news which makes news media profitable enough to operate with the same editorial standards, and not having to resort to clickbait for ad views. This is the hard part to solve, but if you solve that, the hyper-partisan and fringe news sites will start to lose eyeballs. Currently, the mainstream media is incentivized to be dishonest, and people rightfully have lost trust in them (creating the fringe ecosystem where people seek out news sources which just cater to what they want to hear, or whatever is most stimulating).

Or, to summarize, censorship (or as we used to call it, "honest news") in our current media ecosystem is hard because you impact your profits, and people don't want to do it. A systemic fix is what is needed.
It is not horrible for doing basic things or light weight things.

And after they learn those and have few fights. They might be ready to research what to choose for next project.
I appreciate the disclosure at the end but please don't do this. HN is for conversation between humans.

I think there's a niche market to be had for offline/air-gapped computers, not only for security but for independent operability. If you're in BFE and have solar-powered computers running your AC you want something efficient and reliable, and everything in the hardware and software purpose-built.
