It really depends on the population or potential future use-case. I’ve known many labs where cost wasn’t a concern because their institution was associated with (or had their own) cluster that was under-utilized. I think there’s also something to the fact that the cost of storing sequence pales in comparison to the sample collection, DNA extraction, library prep, and sequencing itself that if you can afford to generate that much sequence then storing it isn’t much of an issue. And if you really wanted to cut costs it’s easy to upload to NCBI rather than deleting it.

I also think there’s a certain degree of fear in not being able to generate the data again if you needed to, due to lack of funding or the organism itself not being available.
Equality of outcome, that's indeed the modern western take on things.

Am I alone in thinking it's ridiculous for an editor action to push/pop state in browser history to allow undo/redo? Surely this leads to substantial browser history pollution?
I tend to agree with this - one time I tried reading through all the Internet RFCs starting at the first one and I would say that probably 80% of the ideas in first 1000 were abandoned quickly, and after that that the % of abandoned went up to 90-95 percent, with a high quantity of vendors trying to push their own solution a standard.

Very pareto principle/sturgeons law there.

i did linear algebra and calculus using strang and spivak textbooks. Those were classes i enjoy the most. But most of that stuff has atrophied from my brain over the years, do you recommend redoing those courses fast or can i learn when i need it on demand basis.
All I can figure is they're trying really, really hard to keep this very parallel on their side and also avoiding having to coordinate between nodes. It can't possibly be the reading of the robots.txt that's hard, so I think that statement has more to do with applying those policies to all the nodes—they must regard coordination between nodes to ensure the system as a whole isn't exceeding e.g. request rate maximums, to be "a fair bit of extra work".

Judging just from the linked post, the issue on which this was discussed, and this thread, it's feeling a lot like this proxy was some kind of proof-of-concept that escaped its cage and got elevated to production.
This highlights 2 things:

1. Why poor stay poor (you need money to make money)

2. Why successful startup founders skew being from well-to-do families (they can afford to take the risk).

Really applaud you for helping your friend. You truly change their life.

America is definitely the "land of opportunity", more so than most countries, but it's really difficult to bootstrap when you don't have the means.
When "loaning" money to family and friends as the "lender" assuming it's a gift from the get-go is crucial. Or you just mutually agree it's a gift and move on.

1) If you are going to be financially impacted in any way by not having the loan repaid you should't "loan" (gift) it. Like gambling don't do it if you can't afford to lose it.

2) Assuming #1, the overall psychological stress and potential impact on the relationship just isn't worth it. As the "lender" you should feel good about helping someone while learning something about them in the process.

Personally, in having this outlook with family and friends they essentially get one shot. If all parties agree it's a loan and the debtor doesn't pay back the funds I move on without impact to the friendship but mentally they have a "strike" in my mind that essentially says "they can still be a good person and friend, but money can never enter the relationship again".

I feel like it's a decent balance.

>Why this and not some other objective? Why can't they sway the global opinion on Ukraine? Surely they are trying.

The Overton window is a thing, right? "Nuclear power might be really unsafe" is a much easier sell in the public discourse than "it's OK to invade your peaceful neighbors".
Automatic Testing of Display Resolution and Frame Drop Detection
Agree. I was a died-in-the-wool drip-hating espresso snob until we were getting some work done on the house and our espresso machine had to go into storage. Then I was forced to learn to make nice drip coffee and aeropress and now I can make basically all the types of good coffee. It's a valuable life skill for sure.

The real crime is most people make drip coffee too weak or with bad beans (or badly-ground beans).
I actually wasn't making an argument but posing a question. Your reply seems defensive and emotional.

I'm not sure what you mean by "act abusively" since the core of the product is storing and viewing source code. I mean, I could verify checksums if I needed to, and such a thing is common in workplaces I frequent.

What I asked before, and I will reiterate for an additional attempt to your comprehension, is how can Sourcehut store and view source code BETTER than Github can?
I don't use ZFS, and the Oracle origins is the reason why. I'm very worried that the best filesystem available is forever stuck with a hostile license, and that so many of the good filesystem engineers are contributing to Oracle's product rather than to a non-Oracle alternative. (EDIT: I know zstd is under a good license, so its situation isn't the same a ZFS's, I just commented on ZFS since you brought it up.)

Anyways, I prefer to not use Facebook products.

Your SEO guy is going to throttle you if you even consider thinking about doing this.
Android's binder seems to be exactly what you are talking about. A binder object represents a token for something you can send and receive transactions. You use binder to talk to LocationManagerService which lets you get the location. Android has a service manager and lets any app get the LocationManagerService. LocationManagerService itself does do the permission checks.

The operating system uses both capabilities and permissions.

Regardless, this is all implementation details and for the user it is equivalent. There is the same principle of least privilege where apps are limited in what they can do.
You are not wrong. I cannot think of many interactions with an editor where if the user presses the back button they want to undo the last micro action they did, instead of going to the previous page / major UI interaction. Even just trying the demo after adding 3 blocks I had to press back like 5 times to exit the page back to where I was before.

While this is great for being able to send anyone a URL to a stateful page without needing a backend database, keep in mind browsers have URL length limits and they vary by browser. Compressing as mentioned in the article can help but still you want to know when you're going to go over and figure out a plan for dealing with that.

Requiring two egresses usually means that the building will not have an apartment that spans the width of the building, instead there will be a central hallway to connect every apartment to two stairwells.

That central hallway seems small, but it eats a fairly substantial percentage of the footprint space of the building. (elevators and trashrooms are also examples of things that eat a lot of footprint; limiting them for smaller buildings is beneficial for floorplan efficiency)

And since people do not like bedrooms without windows, having apartments that don't span the width of a building limits possible floorplans, and drives the apartment design towards studios and 1 bedrooms.

The buildings tend to become very wide in order to accommodate enough apartments to make them worthwhile to build, so they tend to use up a high percentage of the lot they are sited on, which reduces greenspace and other resident amennities.
Yes, in the final solution we just stored a hash sum inside the URL fragment (I think it was an MD5 sum) and the actual state inside a JS object in main memory. With a page reload you lost all states which was fine for us but you could use session storage to avoid that.

I only read fiction or low-density non-fiction books now, any of the denser non-fiction books that aren't considered classics usually are full of fluff. For that, I heavily rely on Blinkist, which is basically like Cliff Notes as an audiobook.

There's just way too much fluff stuffed into a lot of the books you see marketed for professionals to read, in particular. I definitely enjoy the quality of prose in classic works of non-fiction, especially histories, but most of the new stuff I'd never make it through without a summarization app.

I guess I'm almost the opposite, I read HN every day, and I usually read the articles, and then that's about it. I might check article of the day on Wikipedia. I just don't read as much anymore unless it's for enjoyment, which is usually fiction.
Ubuntu, Fedora, and Arch use zstd for their packages, all switching in the last few years. FreeBSD seems to have it in base. OpenBSD doesn't have a man page for it. I think Mac OS doesn't include it.
App state in URL can be a good idea, but if possible I prefer readable path/query parameters instead of unreadable base64 encoding.

Wow, being European and used to single-stairwell multi-story buildings, the North American obsession with fire escapes has always seen weird, and it's super interesting that its codification causes the economy of mid-rises to not work out, which in turn causes the weird housing distribution of North American cities.

Reverse Engineering Star Wars: Yoda Stories (2014)
PGP is difficult to replace. It’s very well supported, and frankly works sufficiently well (sure, it’s outdated, but so is SSH, TLS etc). There are other software that might be more secure and user friendly, but PGP is also secure. A lot of extremely sensitive information is encrypted with pgp.
If I know they are honest I don't worry about it.

Have lent to many friends/family members over the years telling them to pay me back whatever/whenever they can, however they want. Some have taken decades. No one has not paid back. Few have needed a nudge, which I only give after they have climbed out of whatever hole. Honest people will always make an effort to repay their debts. The rest make lousy friends anyway.
I don't think audiences have gotten dumber, but what has happened for most major motion pictures like Crystal Skull is that the plots have been simplified for an international audience. When you have to translate a story into 50 different languages, you have to keep the story pretty basic and straight forward or else expend lots of effort in each translation to take into account cultural nuance, humor, innuendo, etc.

That's one reason you see so much more reliance on special effects and crazy action. Because those are pretty universally entertaining.

So in other words, globalization has ruined the film industry.
I believe you. But I also believe that this change was made based on a false dichotomy of mouse vs keyboard. By removing most of the mouse-accessible components, they saved a few pixels on the X and Y at best, at the cost of completely alienating all of their mouse users.

They could have simply improved their keyboard support while still maintaining the small band of toolbars. It would have been effectively the same result for keyboard folks without the hostile change imposed on mouse folks.
It's a bit weird for me. I've loaned out money in various amounts (from a few hundred to tens of thousands). The larger amounts are to people I trust deeply for things like mortgage payment etc. I've gotten paid back promptly but I guess because I was expecting them to pay me back it was more or less of a non event.

I've also loaned some amounts of money to people I figured wouldn't pay me back, but in smaller amounts. Often they behaved as expected and didn't pay me back, but because I was expecting it was also more or less of a non event.
I've tried to stop loaning money to friends, but replace by up'ing my giving of money to friends, to the extent I can/want to afford it.

Generally, someone asking for a non-trivial loan is in a really bad place; your loan may likely not be enough for them to get out of it, for whatever reasons they need money now, it's probably not that unlikely they're going to be unable to pay back the money when they optimistically thought they would, the loan probably isn't going to change their life circumstances as much as they hoped.

If that happens, are you willing to let it destroy your friendship? If yes, then why are you loaning them money in the first place, you apparently don't trust them enough or value their friendship enough to give them a personal loan, at least not of the size you gave them, a size which if not paid back would hurt you a lot.

And if you wouldn't end the friendship if they didn't pay it back... why not just make it a gift instead of a loan? Maybe for less than they asked, for what you can actually afford to not see back without being resentful -- because that's what you'd be risking with a loan anyway.

I learned this the hard way. Loans will ruin friendships.

I sometimes say no, sometimes say yes, but almost always make the 'yes' a gift not a loan. Pay it forward, pay it back to me however you think appropriate with voluntary favors or helping me when I need it myself, but not expecting you to pay it back monetarily at a certain date.

The Great Generative AI Debate: To Use or Abuse?
PSA about driving around bends. If you're ever in this situation, don't stop your car anywhere near the bend! If the bend is caused by nature, that usually means that it's wrapping around a hill or trees, which means it's blind in at least one direction. Human drivers are not physiologically capable of stopping a car in time to avoid an obstacle on a blind curve.

I've lived near two such blind curves in my life, and at each I've seen minor issues like a flat tire turn into catastrophic accidents when the driver parks and someone else comes along and hits them.
I've also been slowly learning Common Lisp and the good news is that #1 and #2 are likely going to coincide! You'll add/update route handlers as the web-server is already bound to a port and listening for requests. Throw in something like CL-WHO (for HTML generation) and you'll be modifying your site on-the-fly with no restarts :)
PC games are a $40 billion / year business. In comparison, console games are $50 billion / year. I don't think it's reasonable to claim that just one of those is a niche market, given how close the numbers are.
I mean, from what you’re saying, it’s complicated in the sense that the credit bureaus are exploiting their customer’s greed, because if the customer really cared about their own employees, they would say no to the discounted rates, and that would be the end of that. No?
You still need to understand some basic theory/math about probabilistic inference (along with some knowledge of linear algebra), or else you’ll get a bit overwhelmed by some of the equations and not understand what the papers are talking about. PRML by Bishop is probably more than enough to start reading ML papers comfortably though. (This would probably be too easy for a competent math major, but not all of us are trained that way from the beginning…)
"Food that is bad for your health" is not the definition used in the studies I linked. They provide their actual definitions, and measure health outcomes from varying levels of reported consumption.

As an entrepreneur, I'm always looking for ways to save money and stretch my budget as far as possible. I'm sure many other entrepreneurs feel the same way, so I thought it might be helpful to ask the community for their top tips on saving money on startup costs. Whether it's negotiating better deals with suppliers, finding free or low-cost marketing channels, or cutting expenses in other areas, I'd love to hear about the creative ways you have saved money on your startup journey.
