I meant that lying was more acceptable on police applications because police, in the course of their duties, often have to lie whether its telling a suspect that you have proof of their guilt and they just need to confess or using boilerplate language like "there was a strong smell of marijuana" to justify a search in the paperwork whether you smelled anything or not.
For those following along, these are lyrics from the Bob Dylan song that is the source of the name for both the Weather Underground website as well as the militant group, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_Underground
The idea that a tiny number of billionaire investors who invested early in social media startups get to decide what political speech Americans are allowed to express on the internet makes a mockery of our values as Americans. Social media is the digital equivalent of telephone or postal service and at some point the largest social media sites must be regulated the same politically-neutral way those public and privately owned communications services are.
As a programmer I really wish math notation was more rigorous: less ambiguity, more explicit typing, no implicit variables, etc. So much of it would never pass code review. We programmers figured out that code should be optimized for readability, not writtability ; I wish mathematicians did too.
Friend, I tell you truthfully that you are buying into a conspiracy theory, propagated by people like Jordan Peterson and Andrew Tate, which is not a true reflection of reality.

Men shouldn't be in touch with their emotions to attract women - they should be in touch with their emotions for their own well being.

The idea you're expressing is called hypergamy, and it's more of a caricature of human courtship than anything. There are women who are attracted to status and women who are looking for someone with emotional sophistication and there are millions of other things they might look for. They aren't robots; they don't behave in unison.

The other idea you're touching on is evolutionary psychology, the idea that human behavior stems from certain knowable evolutionary pressures. This makes sense at first glance but it ends up being a way for people to dehumanize others and use scientific language to justify the belief that a certain group of people are robots operating under a known ruleset. It's a rationalization of prejudice.

Evolutionary pressures are so vague and difficult to know, and sexual selection in particular, that you can justify anything with this framework. Try this on for size; "women disproportionately bear the cost of childbirth, so they're incentivized to select for partners with a high degree of emotional maturity, because these partners are more likely to attend to their needs during pregnancy, withstand the often traumatic stress of parenting an infant, and to be caring parents who will pass on these high-value traits to their male offspring." Is that any less sound an argument than that they select for high social status, or physical strength, or what have you?

I'd really encourage you to look into criticisms of these ideas. Unfortunately I don't have a lot to offer as far as places you may start, I've routed through my browser history and turned up a couple things that might interest you:

I'd avoid them at all costs. There is one in my hometown. (Software Engineering Institute)

It's employees love to stroll off onto online dating sites and list of things like drug use, foreign ties, or... other things that would preclude a clearance, then act aggrieved that someone like this poster thinks people who want to weaken the internet under the guise of national security shouldn't also obstruct them from private employment and have done so since the days of "don't ask don't tell".

I interviewed with CERT a couple times... and I got a PA MMJ card after rather than have one more job interview treated like a free consulting session, and I suspect the solarwinds breach happened because so many people who shouldn't have clearances use their positions to obstruct perfectly good candidates because they feel threatened if the tech savvy at risk youth of Appalachia are lifted out of precarity.

Do not work for these people -- stay in the private sector then get a barista gig or something when you have a nest egg.
I can’t believe you are downvoted. In math sqrt is defined as the positive one. It seems HN readers need a refresher.
Next time they need to go classic and use a horse costume.

I've not heard the term "probabilistic tree" and I've having difficulty pulling up references. I suspect it's implemented by subpackage ptree[0]. Could you explain what makes probabilistic trees different from hash tables or other similar data structures?

I have heard of an anecdote that in some company, can't remember which, when meeting to take a decision, they would have people speak up in order of seniority, from the most junior to the most senior in the room. That way they could avoid the problem you're describing: you don't risk contradicting someone preceived as more experienced, or worse, your boss.

I found that an elegant solution, at least in abstract, I've never actually see it in practical use.
I think the cause and effect here isn't linear, but circular. People dislike the same trait in others, and themselves, and seeing it in either of them causes them to further dislike and suppress it.
Anecdotal but I gave them a shot but also felt ill after eating Impossible burgers, now sticking to beef and planning to increase red meat consumption (raising cattle and pigs). I do usually opt for ground chicken or fungus over ground beef though.
Me too, and I believe OP is just saying that it's better to substitute your nutrition with other non-meat whole foods, instead of substituting it with heavily processed fake meat. And I agree.
I have not yet become significantly better, and not a math book, but I recently read A mathematicians Lament by Paul Lockhart and it resonated so much with me that I plan to take another stab at math different from how it is taught in school.

Waiting to get my hands on his book 'Measurement' and approach it more like art.

If what he says is true, perhaps many who would have turned out great at math are locked out by how it's taught in school.

For now, I have a test subject of one :)
I second this suggestion for Calculus Made Easy by Thompson. It's become a bit of a classic...was published in like 1915. Super unique approach to teaching calculus. It's an excellent supplement...lots of good insights. It may be particularly good for people who believe they're bad at math. His style may convince people otherwise.

Also, Vibrations and Waves, by AP French. Granted, this is a physics book, but I appreciate his style so much. He makes use of a lot of geometric methods to solving problems. It definitly expanded my math horizons! His other books are good too.
Numba is a Python compiler for heterogeneous programming. It builds kernels with the same back-end NVCC does. With the equivalent AST, the kernel code it also equivalent.

We adopted it last year, and we don't rewrite code in C++ for GPGPU anymore. We save tons of effort on rewriting and even more on support.

How is this computer science?
No, I noted that in the other subthread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34440812

For RTL languages, everything is simply mirrored though: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/globalization/localizabili...
It doesn’t change the general argument.
Yes, that is true, if your body is healthy the two type of cholesterol ( LDL and HDL ) contained in foods should balance each other and you will not have cholesterol problems. Some people can have medical conditions and can eat maximum ~3 eggs/week. I can't know if OP is one of those people, this is why I suggested a way to avoid cholesterol rich ingredients.

Edit: replaced "have cholesterol rich ingredients" with "avoid ..."
They would revoke your clearance. You would lose the job which required the clearance. And you would never get cleared again (source: happened to a now-former coworker).
Yes my point. They still are.

Soybean oil is used in a wide range of lubricant and functional fluids applications:

Gear oils and lubes
Chainsaw bar oil
Compressor oil
Two-cycle engine oil
Metalworking oils and
Wire rope, chain, and cable lubricants
General purpose and penetrating lubricants
Transformer and transmission line cooling fluids
Greases - automotive, machinery, rail curve, track
Food-grade, industrial, and elevator hydraulic fluids

Obviously this is a backwards example (food-grade oil used for non-food applications), and my question was using this plastic oil for food applications.
It's also an easy way to get a rough estimate of the bottom of the clouds: 400' above the ground for every 1degC of difference between the temperature and the dew point.

This is useful for a couple of things, including whether or not you can legally take off or land when flying under visual flight rules.

An hour is a popular unit for me personally. I measure my work and plan my day in hours (since pretty much all clocks use hours, not kiloseconds).

I don't use seconds very much (with the exception of Unix epoch seconds, or a short experiment).

I can't divide by 3600 in my head. I can, however, multiply by 1. Therefore, Watt-seconds (AKA Joules) are not as useful to me as Watt-hours and kiloWatt-hours.
Not just the taste, but all that processed crap is terrible for nutrition.
One thing that was a problem for me for a while was having a bad experience with someone, and writing off entire swaths of the population that had similar characteristics. For a long time I refused to date anyone that ever voted republican or democrat, believed in anything supernatural, had student debt, made less money than their age * 2000, owned a pet, used windows an iphone or photoshop, enjoyed music that is played on the radio, or a bunch of other arbitrary "dealbreakers" that excluded the vast majority of the dating pool.

When I realized that I don't actually care about most of those things, I just was being reminded of previous bad relationships, it became much easier to figure out the things I actually cared about.
Seitan is very cheap and easy to make at home, and can be quite tasty.
There's one fairly obvious error in that article: the fields are $F[0] etc, not @F[0]. Otherwise yes, that's a good way to make Perl look like awk. I personally translate awk concepts to more idiomatic Perl (I had no idea about -MEnglish, for example) but the concepts are still the same.
Ask HN: Easiest way to implement payments on my website?
The website I am working on right now is completely static, except for one page that does some serverside work.

What is an easy way to turn that page into a paid service?

Something like this would be perfect:

<?php

$token = $_GET['token'];

if (file_get_contents("https://stripe.com/check?token=$token")!='ok')
die("Please pay first: https://www.stripe.com/pay?domain=mysite.com");

# User has paid .. let's do the work ...

If Stripe would send the user to "mysite.com/paidservice.php?token=..." after they paid, all I would need to implement in paidservice.php would be the 3 lines of code above.

But I guess nothing as simple as this exists? If not, what is the closest?
It might be - for an actual spy. For omitting that detail on a security clearance form? After 45 years, no, nobody cares.

Probably because "following the straight line of the laser beam" should have a "for a bit" at the end; the lightning only goes (relatively) straight for a short distance so it doesn't look very impressive.

How do you imagine this withholding system would work?

Does your tax burden stay the same, and they just make sure your dollars only go to the programs you support? Do they give you a list of every active program? Every single one? What happens with 800 page appropriations bills where you don't support one line-item? Can I opt not to fund the salaries of specific members of Congress? If my neighbor is a veteran, and they annoy me, can I disagree with their VA benefits?

Durable plant-based meat brands have existed for decades. Beyond/Impossible certainly raised the bar, but when I was a vegetarian teenager in 2003-4, Tofurkey had already been a thing for a long time, and as far as I know still is. Impossible/Beyond had a “tech company” veneer, so a certain kind of business writer maybe expected more from them in terms of growth, but that was probably never a realistic way to judge these companies.
It's weird that americans always seem to have this sort of siege mentality. We already know the causes of the other outages, and they have nothing to do with the foreign interference boogeyman.
As a long time mostly vegetarian (still avoid red meat) I have long avoided all imitation "meat". The ingredients are generally utter garbage, if you are at all concerned about long term health you don't want to be eating that stuff. I don't know it its worse than meat but its probably close (trading heart disease for cancer or maybe increase risk of both).
Robert Hooke’s “Micrographia” had a really profound effect on the history of science. Here is the book— check out the letter to the king. I think people’s minds were blown and were ready to accept some new realities.

Fairly simple analysis to do, and I suspect (as I think you do) that the trend will align with a split between A/D vs B/C not A/B vs C/D.
That feels like green-washing.

The Dutch farm example, while it possibly reduces transport of milk also, I suspect, requires that all the cows' food and their excrements must be transported in and out on pretty much a daily basis. Then, there's still the issue of packaging.

Overall, and perhaps cynically, that seems to be a way to position your product as premium and high-end in order to charge a large and profitable premium over 'normal' milk.
I think Apple Watch was a far safer bet. Wrist watches have been a thing for a long time. It's pretty clear that people would enjoy even basic functionality on their wrist.
The ingredients aren't the main problem. The main problem is that a lot of nutritional value is stripped out during the various industrial processes. This causes one to not feel as sated as they would from the same caloric amount of non-processed food, and causes overeating.
> You become confident by taking on challenges, repeatedly coming out on top, and providing your brain undeniable evidence you are who you say you are.

Yes... and also failing and learning how to take care of yourself, rethink things, and make new plans after you do.
I remain a zealot about the harms of leaded gasoline and corruption, for example. Also the roundness of Earth, and the applicability of Newtonian physics at human scales. There are a large class of things you should be zealous about if someone offers opinion to the contrary!

Yes Mediterranean countries tend to have less meat in their cuisine. But Anglo and Germanic cuisine tends to incorporate more meat and that's just what people are used to.
The point would not be that it's a threat to you (though it may be), it's that compromised accounts (like one you don't care about) are a threat to an ecosystem that can't identify whether a "user" is a human or a bot.

That is, your compromised account could be used in an attack and it would look like a human.
I wear an apple watch, it's not really a good information display vector. It's great at displaying certain things but definitely bad for textual information, in addition to needing to raise the arm to actually read it.

My imagined concept of glass display is to be able to read while I'm hiking/walking, a 80x24 that can be hacked would have been perfect. I don't need my hand to hold anything, and probably scroll using eyeball movements.

It was good enough and getting notifications on your watch so you don’t have to pull out your phone is probably the top reason people get an Apple Watch. That’s the reason I wear mine. Only thing that was flawed with the first version is that it wasn’t waterproof.
No, that would be silly. "The Naked Eye" is what normal human eyes can see without aid. There is a lot of grey area there, but microscopic creatures that you can only see with specialized equipment invented in the past 100 years certainly are not visable to the naked eye for any reasonable definition of naked eye.
That $0.10 is just for the chip. I’d say $30 actually seems quite cheap for a small quantity board like this Forth one.

Counterexample. Numba is a Python compiler for heterogeneous computing. We adopted it last year and stopped rewriting code in C++ to run it on GPGPU.

On one hand, the conception from the 90s based on the most common Python implementation, on the other - a compiler that saves us tons of money. Which one adds value again?

Interesting, we say "If my grandma had wheels she would've been a wheelbarrow!" ( "Se mia nonna aveva le ruote sarebbe una carriola" ). And there's also the version with grandad, but it's better you look that one on Google "Se mio nonno aveva..."
Looks nicer but is less user-friendly.
I have been in the "workforce" since 1995. What do I know about this, right? I never said what you are claiming. I simply stated the obvious. Companies exposing bad economy on employees while never give out more when economy is doing great. This is in fact true. What is the motivation and what should we do about it is a different question.
I think it is possible and I think it helps to explore what you don't think about. Everyone has things that never/rarely occur to them to consider performing as an action, even people with significantly broader consideration-spheres than others. For example, I've considered suicide but never going pro in ballet. I've considered stealing from my employer but never becoming an opera influencer. I'm less athletic than a sibling of mine, so things like vaulting over fences/climbing trees aren't things I that would even occur to me to perform but my sibling is always thinking of ways they can get over and around physical obstacles with their body.

I don't think that it's some people follow prescribed paths. I think everyone has familiar and less-familiar paths, and some paths are totally out of the way. And I think the overlap of what's considered familiar and what's considered out of the way have much less overlap than is commonly understood.
Making more than half the screen white space is wasted space. The point of resizable windows is to be able to adjust the content as desired, so it's pretty ridiculous to argue that everyone else should suffer wasted space because long lines are scary.
The Oz government used some similar loophole (or threatened to use it) with the Djokovic covid saga at the Australian open. As I recall, a judge said that he could get a visa for whatever covid medical exemption reasons, but on his immigration form he said that he hadn't been travelling elsewhere. Social media proved otherwise, so he was caught in an easily provable lie on an immigration form. He was then able to be refused entry for reasons unreleated to the covid rules. In the end, they didn't have to rule on whether or not the Oz tennis association could issue a medical exemption for covid - they could kick him out on a much clearer legal basis. I don't recall the exact details, but that is the gist of some of the legal drama.
Hah, that's exactly my thought after reading some comments here.

Last I checked, impossible burger was $7.99 on sale. More expensive than beef. That might have flipped recently, with beef rising to obscene prices because of grocery store gouging.
