Or, hear me out - FAA is in Boeing pockets. Being able to transport 2-3x more passengers equals 2-3x less airplanes sales.

> "brew install docker" is just another way to install Docker Desktop.

No, it's not! that would be "brew install homebrew/cask/docker". As you can see here!

https://formulae.brew.sh/cask/docker

This is the docker CLI utility, ie "brew install docker" which is what I said:

https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/docker

Again, please actually look at the commands you are referencing before spreading misinformation, you are confidently incorrect and being rude about it.

Not only that but the information you are providing has legal implications because these two (completely different!) pieces of software have different licensing... docker-desktop is commercial license, not open-source!

You clearly do not understand the distinction here between the docker CLI utility and backend, and the docker GUI application, and it's very important here.

rancher-desktop is the equivalent to docker-desktop, ie the commercial portion, and docker itself can be used freely because it is (as I said) open source.

> Any programmer dumb enough to just blindly accept that their program is correct is also a dumb enough programmer not to have begun writing a test in the first place.

Then what's the point of this methodology? It requires you to write tests and also blindly accept that your program is correct.

Maybe they should just rename it to "plausibility tests" or similar because that's what they're really testing. And while that does have some value, I think most of the value is negated by the fact that it sounds like they are properly vetted tests which they are not.

So a more appropriate name would help a lot. I still think it's a bad idea though.
Sorry, but why "Analog"?
Twitter API uses oAuth for authentication. Third-party clients saw their keys revoked, meaning oauth social sign-in ain't going to work either.
Yeah you are right. Also, there is another side of this coin. I used to work for a FAANG and here is an outage story for you. We had every angle covered of preventing user errors and stopping a single data entry to take down systems. We had reviews of changes, multiple approval required etc. One of my co-workers was working on a change that got approved he had to change the IP of a dns entry pointing to a load-balancer. The change involved inputting the IP address of the DNS server and the load-balancer's IP as well. Needless to say he mixed up the two IPs causing a several hour outage. The moral of the story is that you can architect the shit our of everything try to avoid these problems but there is always going to be a case that you did not cover and it can cause serious outages just like this one.

"The opposite of addiction is connection." —Gabor Maté
As someone who still take mdma occasionally in their thirties the few times I can actually go clubbing and have a couple of free days after when it’s not going to matter I’m somewhat tired, it’s very much a question of how much.

Taking MDMA while partying is undeniably fun and does enhance the experience at least for me. It’s very much about the physical sensation, the energy and what it does to how you feel the music. Plus it doesn’t massively alter my judgement the way alcohol does and the come down is mild provided you don’t take a lot.

I think I can understand both side of the fence however. Part of the issue is that most of the people who are extremely attracted to party drugs are both young and not very reasonable in how they use them.
"It's very unclear" in legal cases is synonymous with "it hasn't been challenged in court yet". You say they're moderately confident because they're fairly reputable, but remember that Madoff was a "reputable business man" for the 20 years he ran a ponzi scheme. They don't have to be confident in the legality to do it, they just had to be confident in the potential profit. With openai being values at $10B by Microsoft, I'd say they've successfully muddied the legal waters long enough to cash out.
To move from 0 to 1 in R starting at time 0 and arriving at time 1 means x(t) = max(0, min(t, 1)) ignoring the problem of infinite acceleration at 0 and 1 which we could smooth out. I would find it paradoxical if that motion was not possible. All our laws of physics assume und describe motion in space build on top of the reals and tell you how it works and they can perfectly describe the motion I sketched at the top. If anything, then should expect to not be able to move in the real world if space can not be indefinitely divided because the laws showing that this motion is possible do not apply.

I think the rather straight forward solution is to simply say that you can do infinitely many things in some fixed time. Where is the problem in saying after walking one meter that by doing so you managed to traverse an infinite number of intervals? This is only problematic if you think that doing an infinite number of things requires an infinite amount of time, but why would it?

Oh my god I need to watch this. Any recommendations?
Not being able to reproduce the inputs (each image is contributing single bytes to the neural network) is relevant. Torrent files are a means to exactly reproduce their inputs. Diffusion models are trained to not reproduce their inputs, nor do they have the means to.
Atlanta, having a much smaller transit system, has (or had) what looked like an oversized airline food service cart that was moved by regular passenger service between stations. In K-Mart "Blue Light Special" fashion, it had an amber rotating light on top of a pole connected to the cart. IIRC, there were always two armed employees operating it but otherwise the whole operation seemed rather relaxed. Most stations only had kiosks to vend transit tickets. The ones with manned "Ride Stores" might have had a more secure procedure for moving cash in and out.
>E.g. calling `useState` multiple times with different (or the same!) arguments and getting different things back

Absolutely. There is also no such thing as internet addiction. When you compare drug based addictions to things people enjoy the difference is clear. The drugs create increased incentive salience even without enjoyment. This is very different from say, watching a video where you actually have to enjoy it intrinsically many times before it alters incentive salience.

There's a reason the DSM5 and ICD-10 don't have any of the "internet addiction" "video game addiction" "porn addiction" or other cult concepts that scammers use to defraud people of their money. They aren't actually addiction.
Well, ddrescue can definitely “read audio tracks” and is perfectly suited for making archival copies of Audio CDs but it sounds like the problem you’re actually trying to solve is interpreting the data as Red Book CD-DA and decoding it into chunks you call files ;)
> Manhole covers are round if they cover a pipe and square if they cover a brick built manhole

This is inaccurate as a generalization - in the three jurisdictions I've worked in, they're round if they're newer than ~1990, and mix of round and square (or two triangles that go together to make a square) if they're older than that. The frame and cover are replaced independently from the MH structure itself so the cover doesn't tell you anything about the makeup of the structure.
Well, there is no CLI option right now. The main reason is you can, and you probably will, find multiple results for your search string.
Other than simplifying what you can already do with a combination of "grep" and "dd", the main advantage of RecoverPy is its TUI which lets you select a result between maybe thousands.

And I worked to optimize performance if you, for example, search the string "e" in your whole home partition. Which would be a disaster if I output the result into a file.

Overall I guess a CLI option would be a great addition but I have no good idea in mind to make it work :/ The only thing I see is like outputting the first result from Google into a file. Good for the user if the first one is the right one, but else...
Cool. That's all optional, is it not? I was talking about HN, not optional third-party addons.

You're supposed to use it as a repl, so you start with a test for `fib(1) = 1`, then `fib(2)` and so on. Once you're confident of your implementation, you use quickcheck to test general properties of the system.

Similarly if you find a bug in the live system, you add a test for that and the initial output will be wrong. Then you fix your code until it prints the correct value and commit that so any regression will be caught.

Sorry for my late response. Anyway:

I get your point. However, this is worked on by researchers who get paid to work on unsolved problems. This is one of them. It's a surprising one, since it looks like such a simple and obvious effect governed by physics we've (seemingly) understood for centuries. Gauss's Laws are from 1773 and much of the work on static electricity is from that era.

So, it's not just an internet debate. Knowing how things work _exactly_ is what scientists do. Getting the majority is not good enough.

And yes, that will often surpass the scale of "Is what we're doing useful?". However, won't know until we find out. Most likely understanding this effect will not bring any revolutionary insight but we should understand it nonetheless. Maybe our understanding will help someone else solve a problem, that solves another problem, that solved another problem, that gives someone a brilliant idea.
People are blaming the system designers a lot in this thread, but:

Right. Engineer closest to the fault gets scapegoated and fired, new hire gets hired in without any idea what they’re coming into, and the show goes on.

Good interview question to ask: “am I replacing a recent departure? If so, why?” You either get the truth or deception signal once hired. Both are helpful to know, and asking the question is free.

Same here.

In the places I've experienced with poor management and engineering cultures, what I've seen is management dictates all sorts of horrible, asinine things (like story points being treated as deadlines, etc.) that leads directly to problems like this because engineering is not given the space it needs to create robust solutions in the first place.

The prevailing winds are, "Just get it done." The outcome is constant fire fighting and triage because of simple problems like bad data finding it's way into the system.

I’m surprised with how much care went into breaking down the various pieces of the industry, there was zero mention of the Teamsters Union. Nor is there much mention of any of the human issues which lead to things like most trucking companies failing in the first couple of years.

Perhaps looking at trucking from a human centered design perspective would identify problems and needs which are missing from this otherwise deep analysis. What are the pain points of the various types of roles/people involved, what makeshift solutions are they currently using, and do they have money to spend on a better solution?
I think the biggest flaw of Swing is that it didn’t provide or promote a standard ‘Controller’ class. I have seen tons of Swing code over the years that is a spaghetti code mess of UI creation, initialization, updating and responding.

So my big tip is to create a SwingController base class for any of your UI panes with the following methods:

- JComponent createUI();
- void initUI();
- void resetUI();
- void respondUI(Event anEvent);

Theres a bit more to it than that, since you want resetUI to update all of your components without triggering respondUI(). And you want all your components to be automatically configured to call respondUI() when there is user interaction.

I’ve written one of these before, but I don’t have access to a public version anymore. I do all my current UI dev in a UI kit built on top of Swing. But here is what I use there that solves this problem:

> No semblance of the original image even remotely exists in the model

What does this mean? It doesn't mean you can't recreate the original, because that's been done. It doesn't mean that literally the bits for the image aren't present in the encoded data, because that's true for any compression algorithm.

This is some crazy shit. Only you can decide if a behavior is addictive. People can suggest it but it's only an opinion. They dont live your experience. Having said that, your watch patterns are shocking to me.
For addictions I've wanted to get rid of I have:

2. Kept a running log of how many days I have not done the activity - goal is usually 28 days

> I don't think this is right. One code smell here is that your `chapterPromises` is no longer a set of promises for chapters. You've had to turn exceptions into objects to work around the unhandled promise behaviour.

I mean, or you do any sort of sensible thing, like automatically retry the failed request (with backoff and a cap) directly in the catch, where the error is local, understood, and you have the information to handle it.

But in either case - you're right that it's no longer `Promise<chapter>`, it's now `Promise<Option<chapter, err>>` But... that's not a problem. And it's a much better way to indicate to other sections of the code what has happened than changing code paths completely with an exception or unhandled rejection.

Using something like an `Option` (or `Either`, or `Result` - depending on what library/languages you're familiar with) is a pretty sound way to handle errors in a pipeline, and is routinely found across basically every functional language out there.
Strongly agree. It’s been frustrating to deal with this at work. I’m at a FAANG, and we’re required to come in 3 days a week. Coworkers came in visibly sick coughing away without wearing a mask. I wrote to people support and they say they can’t do anything about it, just recommend that I wear a mask and that’s about it.

You took the images, encoded them in a computer process, and the result is able to reproduce some of those images. I fail to see why the size of the training set in bytes and the size of the model in bytes matters. Especially if, as other commenters have noted, much if the training data is repeated(mentions of thousands of mina Lisa's) so a straight division(training size/parameters size) says nothing about the bytes per copyrighted work.

Yeah. YouTube's algorithm does a really great job of stopping me from watching too much YouTube. For me it's a lot of videos I've either already seen, am not interested but continually get recommended, or are just short, low quality videos.

I would like to be able to watch more YouTube videos, but their recommendations are so bad at this point that I have to find other things to do.
People are (and should be) questioning the use of the word addiction. One of the components of addiction is: is it causing a harmful, unwanted effect on one's life? OP laid out his:

> I've been struggling with my mental health during the summertime, a time I traditionally have fewer problems. I wasn't recharging like I should. I was waking up tired, napping during the day, and generally not feeling at all prepared when the day started.

Yet, some people do activities excessively, even compulsively, but they're not addicted because it's not causing them any harm. My elderly parents have the TV on 16 hours a day, basically from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed. It's CNN and cooking shows and blah blah blah just to have a head on a screen talking in the background. It irritates me, but they're not addicts. Same with my daughter and YouTube. Streamers talking about nothing for hours, but her grades are great, her social life is fine, she's healthy and growing properly, so I can't really object. Some people just like to have blah blah blah as background noise all day, and I've come to just accept that it's not for me.
Is it? I thought bias was "I have a distorted view of reality"

per wikipedia:

>Bias is a disproportionate weight in favor of or against an idea or thing, usually in a way that is closed-minded, prejudicial, or unfair. Biases can be innate or learned. People may develop biases for or against an individual, a group, or a belief.[1] In science and engineering, a bias is a systematic error.

If you are correct, you are not biased.
Yeah, it’s definitely a major hole in the accounting.

Having said that, heat in Manhattan tends to be very efficient because of the density. The majority of the radiators in my apartment (it’s a prewar building with old-school cast iron radiators) are permanently off, and there are a couple we turn on only when the temp dips into the 20s or below. It gets unbearably hot if they are on even just a little bit at other times.

Obviously I’m benefiting from the heat in other apartments, but anecdotally my neighbors have very similar behavior - it’s not like they’re all running the heat on full blast and I’m free-riding. And we all share the building oil bill in any case - there’s no water heat metering so no major incentive to turn down the radiators, it’s just that excessively hot if we don’t.

Most of the heating demand in Manhattan apartments goes toward showers and baths from what I can gather.
