Has anyone hacked a "smart" garbage can boot that can self-right the bin and find its way around like an autonomous luggage? (Bonus points if it can somehow unlock the bin for you and detect and ward off bears and other animals).
I'd be willing to bet there are a lot more pedo preachers saying this than drag/trans child strip parties.
Make sure to give Home Assistant a try. It's local first (option to add a "Cloud" connection). It has, by far, the biggest community around home automation. It's easy to extend yourself. It just ticks all the boxes. I've never heard someone talking bad about it.

Tip: don't bother running it as a container or "standalone", just use their HAOS distribution.
I grew up in Ashland (visiting there right now, in fact) and have family who funded one of the first marijuana companies in the state.

Some problems were bad behavior from legal growers, but I'd argue the bigger problems were caused by regulatory and oversight failures from OLCC and enforcement of existing laws on illegal grow operations.

1) OLCC allowed for way too many grow license at first. For a state of 4.3 million, you have a serious upper bound to how much the legal market can support. There was some discussion about weed tourism, and a bit of work to allow legal interstate sales between Washington and California, but nothing really materialized.

2) A plant could produce $500+ in product, but it cost tens of thousands of dollars per acre just to get your plants in the ground. That's not including harvesting, drying, trimming, and storage. Given that there's no crop insurance, if anything goes wrong you're easily a couple hundred thousand in the hole.

3) OLCC often added regulations mid-grow, after it was impossible to effectively respond. This included things such as dropping the batch size for a test (which costs hundreds of dollars per run) down to 10lbs per batch. This sort of uncertainty, the oversupply of licenses, and the huge up getting operational costs made it financially impossible for a lot of farms to break even. I don't condone it, but I do understand why a lot of folks under reported yield and sold part of their harvest in other states.

4) A lot of the truly bad actors we're organized crime rings moving in (Russian mob and Yakuza from what I heard). They got a hemp license and grew marijuana illegally (usually having a few hemp plants in case a state tester came to the grow site). Local law enforcement knew about it, but they were literally out manned and out gunned. The feds eventually offered support, but it took a while. Folks understandably freaked out, but OLCC mainly used the mob as a pretense to try to wrestle hemp regulation away from the ODA (which they have been trying to do for years) rather than acknowledge that this was an enforcement problem, not a regulatory problem.
Thanks for writing it. Yes, definitely didn't mean to imply that it could be done in just a year, just that it's a useful resource in general that people might not know about.
Yes, the web. Responsive by design.
It's deeper than capitalism, power-acquisition is such a fundamental part of agents that it's part of the problem space for "how do we pre-emptively prevent an AI dystopia?"

Capitalism is[0] "huh, even greedy people can be useful, because their greed is best served by supplying other people's needs".

[0] or, I should say, some forms of it are, because Laissez-faire died with the New Deal as hard and for the same reasons as USSR-style Communism (the economic system not the dictatorship)
You mean the same guy who prolonged the Vietnam war for his own political gain? https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/nixon-prolonged-vi...

"Nixon won by just 1 percent of the popular vote. “Once in office he escalated the war into Laos and Cambodia, with the loss of an additional 22,000 American lives, before finally settling for a peace agreement in 1973 that was within grasp in 1968,” says the BBC."

I would say "beyond evil".
Some time ago we migrated a few hundred thousands lines of Py2 spread over dozens of services. Easiest case possible: every service can be converted and tested separately.

Took a calendar year of ca-a-a-arefully migrating these one by one, all while delivering stuff and making sure nothing falls apart along the way.

Not pleasant. Can't recommend.

When was this? And which community? I haven't noticed this either in the Discord or https://love2d.org/forums. Then again I haven't spent a whole lot of time in either, I'm mostly just building my own stuff. My kids are still too young.
Much harder.for us as our code base predates Django so we (years before I was hired) have our own framework, our own orm, … so we’d basically have to port everything all at once, with no clue if we other half is correct until you’ve ported both.
Good grammar, capitalization, punctuation, and vocabulary are class signifiers. These become pretty irrelevant at the highest echelons of class, and intentionally breaking them starts being a sign of personal style.
We are all human. There are limits to what we can do, defined by our biology, and there is no way around that, no cheat available. If you can trust the stuff coming from psychology, there are numbers like ~25h/week floating around for being the most efficient when focusing on one task for white collar work. Anything beyond that makes you less efficient, your rate of mistakes increases, and your "batteries" will get drained. You can compensate latter through physical exercise, but I remember reading a headline that even this goes only so far (and I agree, from personal experience). Plus, if you have to do that to stay afloat, shouldn't be the time be accounted as "work" as well?

Thing is, it will damage you, and no amount of money can save your rear end from an early exit out of this world through the accumulated damages.

Suspect? This is literally what Country Clubs are for.

Ever work on a project for the C-suite that had a lot of urgency, some strange amount of substance and a huge amount of bs that resulted in some huge action/deal but when you sit back and think about it nothing really of value was made?

Yeah you just worked on the coverup for the country club deal that got made weeks ago.
Sure they can make evidence up, but the logic is that even authoritarian regimes need an inner circle of honest supporters. Think CCP or USSR, they do honestly believe in what they do was right.

Well strictly speaking a) they don't say they're proud of it, they say the "refuse to apologise for it" and b) they have ethnic minority members and their leader was afro-cuban (Enrique Tarrio).
I wondered the same. I also guess this is a typo.
Joe Rogan is an American commenting almost exclusively in the American political context. Referring to him as a liberal in this context is misleading, as the term here is almost exclusively understood to mean “center-left relative to American politics” and is almost never used in the economic or philosophical sense in mainstream political commentary.

So far I haven't seen a counter experience from you about how Jobs treated the "regular workers" at Pixar, so as I see it, it's a quote from people who were close to what happened versus the absence of a counter experience.

So, on a publically editable crowdsourced website, someone recently added that as a definition, so it must be true?

Yeah, no.
I've actually recently got a "travel" card (Wise) even though I don't have a plan to travel. But it allows me to top it up with say $200 and present it locally and online (with attractive exchange rates) and limit risk and potential lockouts on my regular bank issued card. I can use the physical card as well as via Google Pay on my phone. (In Australia contactless payments are pretty much ubiquitous and have low fees if any)
Chrome only has a near monopoly on desktop. There is no monopoly on mobile due to Apple forcing all browsers on iOS to use their WebKit. It creates an interesting situation, I don't want a Chrome monopoly and I'm thankful for Apples policy preventing that, but I also want choice on my device and so think that policy should end. Where do we end up? Potentially with Chrome gaining that monopoly on Mobile too.
> Depression is not about how things are but how things seem. This characteristic is one that both concepts, hope and depression, share. Here’s how I perceive depression: today I wake up and think about certain problems I face. I feel challenged yet capable of tackling them. Tomorrow, I wake up and I think about the same exact problems, yet this time, I despair. They now seem infeasibly hard and I don’t even want to start tackling them. This is depression.

A simple and correct explanation. Looking at it from the outside, it seems silly to experience. But in the trenches it hits like a truck

The last wxPython release that even supported py27 was from close to three years ago, and you would have known if you spent half a minute looking into it before making an absurd claim.
Of course, it's true an evil regime can just accuse random people of crimes and arrest them.

But it's much worse if they manage to identify actual critics, people who actually defied them in some way.

The regime that strikes out randomly, probably that ferments opposition, right? The revolution that eats its young is a lot less scary than the revolution that consistently eats its enemies.

Just sit in public and you'll see parents threaten and humiliate children for the smallest things. It's baffling. The effects of these actions add up and we call it "mental illness".

Not to mention how many parents think assault (smacking) is a "just punishment". It actually achieves the opposite of what it purports, i.e. more violence and disobedience as soon as the children grow large enough to hit back.

And then there is the peculiar acceptance in the USA of male genital mutilation for many non-Jewish children.

We are still in our infancy with parenting.
the farm products when used once are used up, videos, texts, "content" can be reused theoretically infinitely.

furthermore you paid for the right to work the land what the landowner asked, nobody pays a minimum rate to have a YouTube channel that I am aware of.

The problem lies in the word navigate. The code in the article navigates through a graph. There is simply no way to navigate graphs in an eagerly evaluated language without running into the N+1 problem. A declarative language that can be lazily evaluated by the DBMS is the only way to efficiently query a graph.
What I meant is: getting success on youtube requires a lot of luck. Instead earn $60k part time and spend half of your take home on lottery tickets to get the same success/probability distribution as youtubing!

I'm sort of surprised the extension doesn't ask for your intentions or what your goal is.

> Writing on Go Note Go, my headless keyboard

This, uh, is a unique solution. I like the concept but it seems too impractical to me. I might put it on my list to see if I can think of something that suits me more.
You encode strings to bytes, you decode bytes to strings. A string is an abstract representation of text, which can be encoded into whatever supported format you'd like; bytes are a concrete representation of binary data, such as text encoded in UTF8, which, if it represents text, can be decoded to obtain a string.

If you think about it, that's the only way that makes sense; if you wanted to go from, say, UTF8 to UTF16, you'd need to have an intermediate step that was abstract and formatless. Similarly, when you're operating on text, you don't want it to have a particular format; the format should only exist at the edges, where you take text in and output it. The format is a way to communicate with other programs, not components within your program.

My advice would be, if that doesn't stick in your head (totally legitimate), write down a code example and stick it in a personal wiki or something. I find it really helps me to understand something once and more or less copy paste it forever.
> One of the drawbacks of white-space sensitivity is the accidental mixing of distinct white-spaces (e.g., tabs and spaces)

I discovered something really surprising regarding whitespace awareness of others, TL;DR that many juniors fundamentally misunderstand "tabs vs spaces", thinking that "tab" means the tab key rather than the tab character.

As a follow up to migrating a bunch of repos and discovering every possible combination of "wrong" indentation... I asked what people's preferences were, my assumption that the cause of this mess was different people working on the same repo with differing preferences. Only to find that this was not the case at all, they were mostly from the same individual. And those individuals had a severe misunderstanding of what "tab" vs "spaces" meant. Essentially many people are either not aware of the tab character or not aware that the tab key does not necessarily insert a tab character due to auto indent features. So those people interpret "using tabs" as "using the tab keyboard key", getting confused at why anyone would be using the space bar.

I then realised that the source of this misunderstanding comes from auto-indent defaults in modern text editors. The automatic, per-line indentation type detection, combined with automatic space insertion and automatic navigation over spaces when using cursor keys makes tabs and spaces indistinguishable unless you either turn these features off or render invisibles. This becomes a problem when chunks of code are pasted from somewhere else with different indentation styles, since they act as seeds of an indentation type that start to propagate and compete with adjacent line indentations. The worst combinations are competing space-based indentation levels, e.g 2 vs 4 spaces, when these are adjacent the automatic indentation behaviour cannot figure out which is correct since 2*2 = 1*4, 4*4 = 2*8 etc etc. This can make it impossible to set e.g a closing bracket onto the correct indent level. Rather than realise the auto indent is insufficient, It seems that novices will just submit to the editor - thinking it is somehow broken.

So rather than enforce a tab/space/indentation level style guide: I said I didn't care what they preferred, so long as they turned on invisibles and made sure their code is self-consistent by manually selecting an indentation style/level. i.e I've ended up mandating specific text editor settings rather than a style guide.
I want to build a digital / smart foosball table with features like

* automated goal detection

* trigger things like lighten up the field on specific events (e.g. a goal)

* build a league backend / frontend and player management

* allow players to "login" via NFC on the table itself

There are a lot of ideas and questions right now. I pitched the idea to my employer to make it a continous "hackathon" for the employees. If that gets rejected I have at least one colleague that wants to build it in private.

Of course the idea is to make at least the software stack open-source (and give instructions on the integrated / used HW) but before that there is a lot to think about regarding the architecture ("offline" only? connect to a "cloud" component for league management outside of the office?).
Unless I'm missing something what in here supposed to justify a decade of pain? Hell most of it could have been easily done in python 2 and slowly via warning and errors transition codebases.
Not so strange. Experience of people who write small programs all the time and people who work on big programs all the time will differ. Maybe the author worked on small programs half the time and big programs half the time.
Carebit | Full Stack Ruby on Rails + React Mid/Senior Product Engineer | Remote | Full-Time

Carebit is a young, design-led healthcare technology company helping hundreds of private doctors across the UK run their practices more effectively and efficiently with our web platform, along with hundreds of thousands of their patients.

You’ll consider yourself to be a mid-senior level developer with solid technical ability and good communication, but what really sets you apart is your interest in product engineering [https://blog.pragmaticengineer.com/the-product-minded-engine...]. You’re not so interested in pumping out leetcode, but instead you’re looking for a rewarding, creative environment in which to write, prototype, iterate and ship where your work has immediate real-world impact on doctors and patients.

Our loyal customers - cancer experts, doctors, secretaries and other medical staff - love our product, are generous with feedback, and are chomping at the bit to help build a best-of-breed platform with us. Having tripled in revenue in 2022, we’re now looking for a curious, empathetic and product-focused mid/senior full-stack Rails & React developer with a strong focus on product to help them and us on this mission.

We are a bootstrapped, profitable and fully-remote company, and we intend to keep it that way. Having been remote from day 1, we believe in its benefits.

Requirements:

* Proven ability to take a brief idea from a customer to a designed, shipped and tested feature that wows, and even goes beyond the brief

* Ability to see the big picture when building a feature (e.g. how it can be made modular or flexible to accommodate changes in future, or where else could it be deployed in the Carebit application)

* A keen eye for UI and UX, colour, simplicity and hierarchy in design

* 3+ years of Ruby on Rails

* 3+ years of React

Benefits:

* Salary in the range of £70k-100k + annual bonus depending on experience

* Async work (minimal meetings)

* Fully remote within 4 hours of UTC (if UK based, we usually meet up in London every 2-3 months)

* MacBook Pro, ergonomic chair and anything else you need to do your best work

Please reach out to hiring AT carebit DOT co and introduce yourself with examples of products you have worked on - shipped or not!
Yeah I’m sure there are all sorts of considerations. Also not saying it’s straightforward, just easier than writing a new db. You can for example write proto message extensions to support custom field behaviours.

But like a sibling comment said here, if you want the database implementation to dictate your models you can probably generate protos from something like EdgeDB. But then the db implementation is in charge, which seem a bit backwards.

If you’ve used graphql you’re presented with a similar challenge but on the other end of the spectrum - the graphql schema that needs to map to application models.

So one of the main considerations is to figure out how and where you want to define your source models. Is it the view layer, the model layer or the database layer.

Tldr; yes you’re right, it depends!
Yes, because a and b represent a specific combination I said I was interested in exploring. What you've shown doesn't lower the plausibility of those scenarios. Are you being intentionally contrarian or is there a reason why you are trying to muddy a simple thought experiment?
I'm aware of who he is, and the context of "liberal" when referring to him and his views. I'm offering an explanation as to why someone might describe him as "liberal", because if anyone outside the US listened to his viewpoints they would describe him as "liberal". I'd be willing to bet that the original commenter is not American, and that's why they chose "liberal", not to be misleading, but because literally the entire rest of the world uses the word differently.

"USA: the primary use of the term liberal is at some variance with European and worldwide usage. In the United States today, it is most associated with the definition of modern liberalism, which is a combination of social liberalism, public welfare and a mixed economy,[12] which is in contrast to classical liberalism."

I did a production of the Diary for Standard Ebooks[1], it’s still the longest thing on there (amazingly enough given that we also have The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire). Phil from pepysdiary.com was a big help and pointed out a bunch of OCR errors that he’d previously fixed for the site, which I flowed straight back into the SE production.
