This makes me curious. Would you mind answering, from your point of view, why do you think that is? Is it a specific scenario or type of scenario you wish to avoid or is there a generalized concern that comes with it? Is that due to uncertainty or past experience?

Thanks! So - midi velocity translates to PWM and hence solenoid force? Cool. You can always add some kind of mapping function if lower velocities are too low force. Nice work.

(old pre-electronics player pianos could do dynamics but most relied heavily on input from the operator to do so - with various limitations - it's probably a good plan to avoid directly imitating them :-)
That's not the hardware wallet being exploited though, it targets the user's computer. Verifying the address on the screen of a hardware wallet during confirmation would reveal the mismatch.

But most HW wallets have tiny screens that make users apathetic to validating tx data.

> it's generally considered a pseudoscience.

Only by people who have no experience with it.

NLP ("Neurolinguistic Programming", not Natural Language Processing) is pre-scientific, yes, but that's not the same as being a pseudoscience, and calling it such is a disservice.

We have pretty much discovered the operating system of the human mind. applying the principles and techniques discovered and systematized under the rubric of NLP one can do amazing things.

It is strange that academic research psychologists seem to have trouble with it. But that's their problem, it doesn't change the fact that people all over the world are learning and using this stuff every day. If academic psychologists can't understand it that just makes them irrelevant, it doesn't change the facts.

If the term 'ordinary users' implies users who use specialized commercial software, then yes, Linux does not have it all yet. It's a reality we all know but it's changing gradually, fortunately.

ioctl really is a ugly unixism that's totally out of place there.

Citizen has a quartz movement that is rated to only drift plus or minus 5 seconds a YEAR which is quite impressive though they cost around 2000 dollars and are exclusive to the Japanese market. Several other brands out there make high accuracy quartz movements (which is done with thermal compensation) but they do generally cost more than cheap Casios.
The amount is the same though so for large companies it’s just a minor inconvenience

People never change because of YOU. This applies to work, relationship and family.

It made me click about the saying that science advances one funeral at a time. It is easier to rally people of similar thought than to change people of opposite opinion. Not impossible, just more difficult. It explains a lot of thing in my opinion.

1. It is easier to start a start up than to convince your boss to take a certain product direction. E.g to not pursue certain pursuit, as outlined by John carmack's departure from meta. The ultimate judgement will be whether YOUR idea survive rather than whether your boss buy your idea. And I prefer bootstrap, at least for now, for that reason.

2. Never attempt to change your spouse. Find the common ground instead.

3. Empathy is mostly about experience sharing. You can't have people feel something they never experience before. If you can empathize, it means you have experience to draw similarity between. Imagine teaching a 18yo to be a father, that's how preaching people to be empathetic felt like.
This isn't a replacement for unit tests. This is an alternate syntax to using asserts. You would still want unit tests to see if those asserts are being violated.

It makes perfect sense from a biological perspective. I am not aware of any transgenic methods to increase yield as that is done through breeding and hybridization. Do you know of a specific seed that has enhanced yields through a crisper like process? I am aware of accelerated mutations by irradiating seeds, though I think this is rare and I only know of red grapefruits that successfully used this technique.

> 4. You can't A/B test a farm (yet)

On the ranch I grew up on, we would "A/B" test new bulls all the time. Literally the first year we would try a new bull, we'd only give him access to 15-20 cows. If the calves came out easy, and grew fast, he'd get put into circulation with the larger herd.

We also tried different things with crops... plant one side of the field one way, plant the other side a different way.

Different kinds of fencing in different pastures... I can't remember a year when we didn't test a new kind of fence. Fencing takes so much labor, even something that shaved a few days off the maintenance each year would have been welcome improvement.

I remember we tried moving gates to the corners one year, just to see if it made moving cattle between pastures easier. It did!

We tried a lot of different rotation patterns, too. Mostly to try and reduce bugs and have to spray for flies less.

Perpetually testing new medicines. "This pill costs more, but you don't have to give it as often, vs. that pill costs less, but you have to give it every day..." turns out there's benefits to being out among the herd every day.

Ranchers aren't very technical folks, but they tend to know their profession extremely well. Above all else, they need things that reliably work.

I remember switching to electric branding irons... like they made branding faster, gave a more consistent brand, and had faster heal times -- but it wasn't just a decision to switch the whole herd, we had to test them out on a small group... and learn and then apply what we learned to the larger herd the next year.

A ranch was, honestly, a sort of perpetual experiment. There's very little "We do it this way because that's the way it's always been done..." If you talk to one generation of cattlemen vs. their fathers, the sons will inherit a bunch of the equipment, but they almost always want to change things up. I'd wager no group of fathers and sons on the planet butt heads more.

Cattle Trace is great for people with 10s of thousands of acres to manage. But that's not all that many cattle operations in the grand scheme of things. Most of us are small operations that don't interact with major processing plants and so on. We all know when someone has a sick cow and we all talk to each other.

I was part of a pilot program using drones and RFIDs in Brazil some 10 or 15 years ago. It was cool, but the ranchers still ended up having to go out and put eyes on cows when some went missing or died so it didn't really solve a problem, just narrowed down the area a bit.

I have a small drone here that I use so I can sit on the deck and still check water tanks and cows, or look for babies so I don't have to go out in the mud. But I don't know anyone else in 20 miles of me that does that.
why is it that you can't control it?
Probably some of scale - while body and brain size map together well enough that tanners knew that any creature had enough brains to tan their hide there are limits to how small a viable brain may be. Second would be exposure towards some sort of input to respond to.

It's not the "like" button. It's the "likes" number. Hide the number and the like button is signal to the system. So "likes" and it's a signal to the poster. That IMO is the problem, not the button itself, the "score" you see visually.

I've hidden the score here on HN for myself and on StackOverflow. Two places where score has a negative effect on myself.
How does the brighter backlight affect battery life? Doesn't the original model have a 7-year battery life?
Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone.

It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.

The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities.

It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population.

It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some 50 miles of concrete highway.

We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat.

We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people.

This, I repeat, is the best way of life to be found on the road the world has been taking.

This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.

Sad thing is, the fines aren't really harmful at this scale. Any company large enough will just count this as OpEx and in some cases be able to write it off their taxes.

I have nothing against Tesla as a company, love their cars, and want nothing more than for them (as well as EVs in general) to become even more mainstream.

But we as a society have enabled corporations to behave like this and let them get away with crap time and time again only to be hit with fines that add up to a day or two's profits. This has to change.

Yeah, this only highlights how ridiculous the requirements are.

The system needs to be tolerant of failures and faults of multiple natures. And cryptocurrency is very intolerant or many types of failures and faults.
This is great because it highlights something a lot of people don’t understand about writing software professionally: you are a translator of domain knowledge into useful applications. If you have a lot of domain knowledge in something, regardless of what it is, if you also write software it would be a waste to not improve that domain for all of those who are just like you but do not write software.

It’s not about being a 10x developer, it’s about identifying a problem and solving it.
> this incorrect notion that fiction cannot depict things in a historically accurate manner

This is a misunderstanding of what I wrote. I didn't say that fiction cannot do this. I said it is wrong to cite it as the truth. If you've got evidence of the truth, cite the evidence.
This. The big clue is signs for a seed company.

As a teen I detasseled corn for a couple of summers - pulling the male tassels off the female rows of corn to create hybrids.
Perhaps, but barring concrete evidence it's safer to assume that it was bad practice rather than a malicious endeavor.

The answer is still “no”. I make more than enough to meet my short term and long term wants and needs and I’m at about 90% of the compensation of an SDE 2 at BigTech at 49 years old.

I asked in another reply would someone work for Twitter at twice their current compensation. Both of the replies were that wouldn’t.

If I had an opportunity to make twice my current compensation but I had to give up my current lifestyle - working remotely, traveling six months a year, never being on call, doing the work I enjoy, I would say no without thinking twice.
Goldberg's answer "The 1Password Secret Key may not be the most user-friendly aspect of our human-centered design..." is unfortunately true.

We experienced a lack of understanding on the user side that this secret key needs to be printed and stored safely. It feels like a huge barrier for the adoption of 1Password for non-IT affine people.

This and other challenges led us to develop heylogin which does not require a master password and has no secret key that needs to be printed. Instead we generate cryptographic keys using the user's smartphone. For providing your desktop browser temporary access to passwords you simply confirm on your smartphone. This feels similar to modern SSO solutions but is technically a password manager.
Ask HN: Photo cloud service to use in 2023
I have resisted for many years to use cloud services to host my pictures, but the friction to use multiple devices and share photos with my wife is only growing, so I am looking for a good alternative. I have about 70GB of pictures from all my life, which I am currently keeping both on a Mac laptop and on an SD card on my Android phone.

Ideally, my workflow would be:

- take pictures from either my personal of work phone

- have them magically backuped on my laptop

- possibly, have them synced on my personal phone as well

- the work phone can just be a source, if I need to access photos there, I can use a client to look them online

My needs are:

- basic tagging functionality, possibly automated (dates, places, maybe people) with some sort of search

- possiblity to share albums with other people

- important: pictures should never live in the cloud only, so some sort of sync at least on the laptop, possibly on Android phones as well

- clients for Mac, Android, if possible Linux

- the service should have at least some chance of lasting forever - moving all your pictures is a hassle, I would like to have at least some chance to be able to use it 30 years from now

I have considered Nextcloud: I already have some hosting on Hetzner, but I couldn't find photo management apps that are usable both in the browser and on phones. Otherwise, there is Google Photos, Amazon Photos... Anything else?
Creditors wouldn't care about controlling Twitter, as it generates no profits. They would have to find another buyer, and that would be hard going considering that Musk has chased off most of the big advertisers already.
How does a DLP projector work?
Not the writer, but it seems obvious to me. It’s a luxury version of assert. You leave them enabled in debug builds to get better bug reports from testers.

Those testers may hit cases you forgot to write unit tests for.

Of course, you can also forget to write invariants, or write invariants that are less tight than they should be, but I think it often is easier to write invariants than to write exhaustive unit tests.

Firstly, writing “p should always be a prime” is clearer than writing “if p is a prime, and you call f, p should be a prime afterwards”, and secondly, invariants can apply to multiple methods that you, otherwise, would have to write separate tests for (“foo keeps p a prime”, “bar keeps p a prime”, “bar keeps p a prime when called with a null argument”, “baz keeps p a prime if it throws an exception”, etc)

Also, invariants, IMO, can be way better documentation than unit tests.

Finally, invariants leave open the possibility of using a theorem prover to (dis)prove that they hold.
Would you be able to write it down on paper?

When I'm interrupted, I often lose my train of thought. I might be able to recover it after some struggle, but not always, and it's very exhausting and I often give up, especially if it happens several times in a short time span. Articulating words and sentences and thoughts is a slow and tiring process for me.

So how would we do if we had to speak together?

I will let someone speak as soon as possible if they express the need to speak with some body / face clue however.
You might look at something like the median life expectancy of a 65-year-old. That skips over a lot of early deaths that really bias the "average life expectancy".

For instance, you might find that in 1980 the median life expectancy at 65 was 25 years, and today that number might be higher. You'd still be getting a lot of lifestyle disease deaths though. Obesity and diabetes really grew after 1980.

https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/health-statisti...

It might be even better to look at median life expectancy at 70 or 75, if your idea is to gauge whether modern medicine is keeping people alive longer. Start with the group of people that at least made it that far. 70 or 75 is still probably too early for "died of old age" to happen, and those people are past most of the "died of something else" deaths.

Why concede? He has every right to question the election results if he believes they can't be trusted. I don't fault him for doing that after this insane election. Instead of pulling out all the stops to prove the voting machines weren't tampered with, they doubled down on it, declared the results "unquestionable" and started fining and censoring everyone who questioned. That was before the armed forces report showed the potential for a compromised supply chain attack. I see news about attacks like that posted here frequently, I think the newest post was from yesterday.

In a serious country like Germany, voting machines are unconstitutional due to lack of process transparency and concerns over election integrity resulted in a new election. That's how things are supposed to work. None of this "unquestionable" nonsense.
No need to bother with LLVM16 and / or GCC. Enabling avx2 for Clang compiler produced following results that are more or less in line with what was expected.

I thank you for your thoughtful reply. I think we understand each other.
That's the point. If you're a criminal, you don't get to keep the proceeds of your crime. In this case, people were blocking streets and creating nonstop noise disturbances in order to get donations from foreigners who wanted to shut down the city.

Or do you think I should be able to pay a trucker to block your driveway and honk their horn all night? If so, the way to solve it isn't to let anybody get money for any illegal activity (which is only possible on Bitcoin because regulation hasn't caught up, not for any technical reason) but to make it legal for me to pay the trucker to block your driveway and honk their horn.
I think he’s just implying that since asymmetric depends on the reverse operation being slow, there will eventually be a system fast enough or a non slow algorithm for the operation.

A bit far fetched IMO if the threat model depends on quantum computing but I have no idea about the subject so…
>Non-occupying owners are a factor in supply and demand; banning them (or even just increasing costs on them, e.g., via taxes on long-term vacant units) reduces the number of prospective non-occupying owners buying and causes existing ones to sell.

The problem with this analysis is that it ignores that homes owned by non-occupying owners (ie. landlord) are still occupied by somebody, and is therefore suppressing demand for buying houses. Or put another way, if you got a landlord to sell a home, there would be one more home on the market, but at the same time whoever was previously renting that home will get kicked out and will also need a home, so the net effect on supply/demand is zero.
I have colemak layout and use vim as default editor for all system configs. I don't use any plugin or anything else to remap the keys. At first, this feels very weird and unintuitive, because now the key for up is actually below the key for down. But over time you start to see Vim in a different way. You lose the muscle memory associating vim commands with key positions, and instead you form connections between the commands and the keys themselves. It starts to feel like you are talking to Vim on a higher level language. If i want to change this word to something, I don't think "press these keys in a sequence", I say "c i w" to Vim which would do it for me.
