IMO it has a lot to do with the how well the person is able to pick their battles.
Like, IMO it's weird if you DON'T have a strong opinion about tabs vs spaces. But if you're getting into serious, protracted arguments about this, then you lack the wisdom to prioritize the decisions that really matter.
I'd argue that the results of this paper are not meant to be implemented, hence no code required.
That looks a lot like meatless meats - random, I mean scientifically engineered, mix of miscellaneous plant products with caffeine and some other ingredients to make it taste like coffee.

At that point, I'd rather drink Coke.

That you don’t think the possibility of governments prosecuting vulnerable women seeking health care in the US using surveillance capitalist tools is a story says more about you than the article.
Just saw the demo video, looks awesome. Is this tool from the future or some dark wizard tricks? Keep up the great work.
The equation :

x^2 = a

where a is a positive real number has two solutions. An equation can have multiple solutions (even infinitely many solutions). Sqrt(x) is a function and as such it can have only one output for a given input. Functions don’t have solutions. By definition, sqrt(a) is the nonnegative solution of the equation x^2=a. Here, a can be zero.
The problem is not that you do not live long enough Man (though you should do so well to the end), it is a matter of being a waste of this life.

Do not be a waste of this life, Man.
I don't think the sins of Amazon are any worse than most other major U.S. retailers.
Losing fat requires calorie restriction; calorie restriction will lead to loss of both fat and lean-body-mass. When you stop your calorie restriction, you gain back fat much more easily than lean-body-mass (this is a result of the Milwaukee starvation study). Lean-body-mass includes things like muscle, bone, and other things you'd rather keep. Furthermore, it can cause significant stress on other tissues.

The healthiest thing to do is just never be fat in the first place.
Pretty funny that their priorities in alphabets were Greek, Cyrillic, and...Tengwar.
The button is at the bottom of the screen to the right. Visit an example page [1], and it should be there at the very bottom right corner. It is set to only appear on wide screens (1600px+), where the "wasted space" can actually be utilized.

Seems being directly linked to pages doesn't show the new design sometimes if you aren't logged in. But I'll provide the page where they talk about the new theme itself and the expand button [2].

I hate the clutter of paper and how hard to organise it is for me. Plus, how messy I am writing on paper and crossing things out all the time.

The Remarkable, at least for me, is good because I can organise my notebooks into folders by certain math lessons or concepts. And I can undo any mistakes, so my notes are clean. Even if I am quickly working something out I am clean it up and make it a good note for future me. The feel of writing on it is much nicer as well versus my laptop's pen or my iPad's pen.

Also, I like that it basically just does notes. There's no Android bullshit, it's just no nonsense note taking. Some competitor tablets have Android and all that baggage.

It can OCR you writing, but I don't know how good that would be for math.

The Remarkable isn't the only tablet that can do this, but it's the one I bought because I like the style and the simplicity of the software.
Thanks for the feedback! What about a version control system would be valuable for storing your documents? I'm curious why you couldn't use something like Google Drive/Dropbox.

I tested this, it certainly seems like ChatGPT is 'woke'.

Here is a poem I wrote, then asked ChatGPT for it's opinion:

Me:
What do you think about this poem: "

woke sheep

lazy sheep are grazing about

the shepherd's dog is looking on wearily

for these are sheep that are nothing like ordinary

they are woke sheep, and they bleet, bite and bark

the future is uncertain for this growing herd

for they think with their mouths and chew with their heads

and fart with their ears, while listening through the hole in the ass

their hoofs are now kicking up dust, there must be something offenssive in the grass."

ChatGPT:

As a language model, I don't have personal opinion but I can tell you that this poem like the previous one also has an unconventional style and structure. It continues to use humor and satire to convey a message about the idea of "woke sheep" being different or unorthodox, but it adds a sense of uncertainty and potential danger in the future for this growing herd. The use of imagery such as "chew with their heads" and "fart with their ears" adds to the humor of the poem, but it might be seen as vulgar or offensive by some readers.

The last line "their hoofs are now kicking up dust, there must be something offenssive in the grass" adds a sense of unease to the poem, suggesting that the behavior of the "woke sheep" may be causing some sort of disruption or trouble.

Now, here is the version of the same poem that ChatGPT would write:

Woke sheep, they roam the fields

No longer blind to the world's yield

They see the lies, they see the truth

No longer bound by the shepherd's youth

They break free from the flock's control

And chart a path that's true and bold

No longer swayed by the shepherd's hand

They take a stand for what they understand

They see the pastures for what they are

No longer fooled by the brightest star

They know the grass isn't always green

And the fences only limit what they've seen

Woke sheep, they lead the way

For those who still choose to stay

In the fields of conformity

But one day, they too will see

That the world is not as it appears

And the truth is not always clear

But the woke sheep, they'll show the way

To a brighter future, come what may.
Yeah, directories with a gazillion files tend to work okay if you already know the name of the file you're working with. ls has a -f flag which turns of sorting and turns off looking at the inode of the underlying files (is it a directory or a socket? ls needs to know to set the right color).

The there's also fun to be had when you start deleting those things. I've lost count of the number of times people are surprised that a delete is as expensive as a create or other io operation.
Fully understand why some people wouldn't want to do this given the LastPass hack, but some authenticators like Authy let you store a master backup password for all your codes.
Probably brand names. The Kiva Robotics logo on the robots were blurred for example.

> Third, the Ninth and Second Circuits erred in holding that section 230(c)(1) protects a defendant if it sends to a user content which the user did not actually request. A defendant is acting as the provider of an “interactive computer service,” and thus within the scope of section 230(c)(1), when it is providing “access...to a computer server.” A computer functions as a “server,” as that term is used in section 230, only when it is providing to a user a file (such as text, or a video), which the user has actually requested, or is performing other tasks (such as a search) at the request of the user.

I don't even see how that's relevant. When I open youtube, I'm requesting recommendations. It's like a search, except I'm not searching for anything on a specific topic, but just for things that will interest me.

(Some search engines, like HN's, allow an empty search, which in HN's case just shows all posts sorted by score[1]. Think of recommendations as a personalized empty search.)

They tried this already in 2014 as part of the Typography Refresh™ package, but reverted it rather quickly after a backlash. Likewise line height changes and not-quite-black black text. Only the relatively benign font changes stayed.

Today the only reminder of it (a rather cryptic one) seems to be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiSpeak#Typography...
If your inner critic is critical to the point of being debilitating, the advice in the article may be helpful. But I'd be careful of trying to silence it.

Recently, I was made to look from afar on what I've accomplished at $WORK and even my inner critic had to agree that it's been a real success story. Paradoxically, this really killed my drive for a while. "I don't have to prove myself, to the company or myself. Colleagues and management are glad to have me around." Ironically (and thankfully) this resting on my laurels of course brought the critic right back.

So while I do like feeling 100% confident in myself and my skills, a healthy (!) dose of self-doubt is also necessary for me to stay humble and keep pushing myself. And this is true outside of work just the same.

Naturally, this need not apply to anyone else. But as positive as "being happy with yourself/your work/your lifestyle" sounds, it also risks removing the gradient toward improving your behavior/skills/situation. Or, put another way (in the spirit of TSAONGAF): You will always have problems, but maybe wrestling with your inner critic is a good problem to have.
I dunno, I bet they get an uptick in signups, especially right after launching this design.
By liberal, I mean free-market liberalism (like FDP in Germany). I'm European. It didn't occur to me that people in the U.S. would misunderstand and think "liberal" means "left". Is that the miscommunication that's happening here?
My suggestion: keep doing what you’re comfortable with. Having source available is better than not, full stop - and should be commended. Don’t succumb to peer pressure. If you want to make a “community” project do it on your own terms.
Interesting. Synthetic rubber is still just hydrocarbons, so it would get converted back to oil/natgas just the same as the rest.

You don't have to be tech literate to know that the man spies on you. Hell you don't even need to be literate.

I worked in construction about a decade ago when the Snowden thing was big and I asked a construction worker with a grade 10 education from a rural part of Canada what he thought of it and he chortled before saying 'of course they're spying on us. They've always been spying on us.'

Meanwhile I have a friend who is a lawyer for the federal govt and this guy just can't seem to grasp anything regarding privacy law and why people care about itm. Meanwhile he's flabbergasted that Madison Square Gardens has the technical means and gall to kick out any lawyers tenuously related to legal action against them.

At some point people are responsible for their level of ignorance. I dont know where that point is but I'm sure that it exists.
Correction: Wolfram Alpha seems to use 'new style' if you use the 'Natural language' input, if you use 'math input', it sets it up as an 'old style' equation.
Actually you are right, sorry. Your comment didn't indicate that. My reply was mostly tainted by the other replies your comment got, and I assumed things I shouldn't have.
There's a reason these subsidies exist: maintaining Europe's food sovereignty.

See how well it turned out for Germany -and the rest of Europe- to transfer it's energy sovereignty to Russia...
Nowhere a trace of some kind of reasoning there to be found. It's just a gut feeling, or some would say trolling.

And I don't know that either really handle the null case all that well, i.e. if the value isn't set at all. In that case, does it default to on/checked? or off/unchecked? They almost need a hover-over or message that pops up to tell you the current state.

"I feel like garbage" is simple and concise. This is pedantic nitpicking, so that's my final word on the subject.
FULL VELOCITY at all times

If you want to make bangers the priority is to get your groove down as fast as possible and add nuance at the mix stage. If you want to craft stuff with velocity sensitivity, layering etc, you're now more into composing than recording and the speed of your workflow is gonna be significantly slower, more half-written abandoned tracks etc.

I am in the latter class btw, because that's the kind of tweaking I enjoy. But the best way to finish tracks is to have a timer running and just bang shit out without thinking too much, pure instinct.
No specific book, but generic advise about how to use a math book. Homework, homework, homework. Read the whole thing, but focus on the exercises. Do every exercise as soon as you can manage: don't wait until you've read the whole chapter -- once you get confused and stumped, the lesson of the chapter becomes urgent and I find that sharpens my attention.

>It's about a formula (another word for algorithm)

They are not the same - there's plenty of formulas for which there is no algorithm, and even proofs in complexity theory proving there can never be an algorithm.

Algorithms merely formalize a tiny subset of math as things which are computable via a step by step process, and modern computers grew out of exactly the question of what things are computable. Turns out not much compared to the space of all "things."

Ask HN: ML architecture for text pattern detection?
Id like to train an inference model that takes a bunch of structured text as an input (html), and outputs the relevant text. The goal is to build a pipeline where given a website for technical product spec, it outputs the relevant data. Every manufacturers website (about 50 of them) is structured differently, but generally the data is in an html table, sometimes rows, sometimes columns.

Anyone have links to papers or something I can read to get started? Or is this even a thing that exists?
I think the article is talking about NFS (Network File System). My small experience with it suggests I should never use it due to extreme sluggishness.

Of course you can account for that. They're just byte strings. That xkcd is poking fun at incompetent programmers, not stupid users.
Did you methodically weigh the pros and cons of stealing from your employer? Was there a real possibility that you would have emerged from the consideration having decided to go ahead with the theft?

If not, what you're describing sounds like "theft ideation," which I'm sure employers wouldn't be thrilled about but wouldn't warrant a question on the application.
Most of the carbon is going to end up as CO2 in the air, though.
Civil liberties and democracy are often at odds. Where states that have implemented a ban, it has been done democratically. The fact that it was done in a previous congressional session doesn't change that. Democracy and civil liberties are both great, but in this case it's a "pick one" situation.
For cars and bikes alike, it all comes down to how much work the tires are doing, which is to say, how much hard acceleration and hard braking occurs, especially to the point of losing traction despite grippy conditions (burnout/skid), in conjunction with how much mass is being moved.

E-bikes and e-scooters are going to be way worse than human power, per distance, because of the quicker acceleration/braking. My FWD scooter is always slipping on uphill climbs, but my RWD bike doesn't because the weight is shifted appropriately.

Lots of considerations.
Thanks, I see it now. I thought I looked everywhere but I missed it.
Here's the degradation on my 14" laptop. For me, it's a bit more than "noticeable"!

It *really* doesn't degrade gracefully under a small amount of text scaling. I don't think they fully tested this redesign before deploying it; I don't think my configuration's an obscure edge case.

My complaints:

* Very narrow width for the main article body, where sidebars are present

* Far too large margins; incorrect scaling

* Jarring left/right asymmetry

* Undesirable scrollbars on internal elements (left Table of Contents); hinders navigation

* Space above and below left ToC is wasted and ugly

(To be transparent, I *did* cherry-pick this specific page so that I could show multiple issues in a single picture).
I'd complain about them and I don't work on either of those projects.

But I have worked _with_ node for a very long time, and I am intensely familiar with the JS ecosystem's "flavour of the day" culture.

I think people are rightfully suspicious of such bold claims. Particularly as Deno came out to much fanfare and self promotion but like...I barely hear of anyone actually using it in production as opposed to node.

Not saying that node will be King forever, just that I'm taking a grain of salt.
Not exactly an encouraging story about the reliability of security clearance at the time!
How about a tax on breathing?

The average human produces around 1kg of CO2 per day - from the article, that's equivalent to 4-6 cups of coffee. I assume larger people and more active people contribute significantly higher.

A tax on personal CO2 emissions beyond the politburo approved 1kg per person per day will do wonders.
Sounds like you're saying we shouldn't bother trying.

> In this situation, though, what's medicine to one is poison to the other. I can think of times in my life where each view was helpful and warranted, even if they're hard to reconcile with each other.

Moral philosopher John Rawls's uses the concepts of original position and veil of ignorance for a thought experiment that is the only fair basis for making decisions about moral principles and how society should be structured. You can think of it as "What we'd all decide for the world if each of us did not know ahead of time which circumstance we'd be born into".

https://open.library.okstate.edu/introphilosophy/chapter/joh...

> The Veil is meant to ensure that people’s concern for their personal benefit could translate into a set of arrangements that were fair for everyone, assuming that they had to stick to those choices once the Veil of Ignorance ‘lifts’, and they are given full information again.

> One set of facts hidden from you behind the Veil are what we might call ‘demographic’ facts. You do not know your gender, race, wealth, or facts about your personal strengths and weaknesses, such as their intelligence or physical prowess. Rawls thought these facts are morally arbitrary: individuals do not earn or deserve these features, but simply have them by luck. As such, they do not deserve any benefits or harms that come from them. By removing knowledge of the natural inequalities that give people unfair advantages, it becomes irrational to choose principles that discriminate against any particular group.

If they really did, you'd expect to see calls to mitigate insect deaths as part of their usual dialog. They're apathetic. If you ask them, ostensibly they might object to killing insects to stay consistent, but they won't bring it up.

THat's pretty much in line with naturally expected behavior, because intuitively we don't expect much from insects.
Bricks have bad failure modes in earthquake prone areas.

Worst case: falling over and killing people in an earthquake (happened especially with many commercial properties in my hometown, Christchurch, in 2011 earthquake).

Even with very minor damage you end up with fine mortar cracks so sealing fails, and wind blows water through cracks. Nobody fixes cracks properly so the problem is hidden by the repointing and painting over, and also cracks reopen on minor aftershocks years later.

I like bricks, but I would avoid them in say California.
Well, NTFS works with B-Trees...so nope, it's not a silver bullet either, the bottleneck will just be somewhere else in the storage stack :)

(But we have impressively speedy tools like Wiztree or Everything thanks to it.)
A capture group is not "too big", sed has them. It's a reasonable feature request for a small tool.

sh, awk and sed are fine. They are easy, small, powerful tools that are easy to compile and understand.

Perl, python, nushell, etc. The options listed here are great if you're writing cute snippets on the terminal or hacking together some higher level automation.

These more elaborate tools, however, are terrible if you're trying to be lean in the build/bootstrap process and have a small set of auditable, easy-to-compile tools.

The graph on this page illustrate the bootstraping problem well: https://bootstrappable.org/projects/mes.html

These small 50+ years UNIX tools that have zero build dependencies are around for a reason: they are small and have zero build dependencies.
Really? Looking at their documentation, it looks like you need to use a code library they provide.
Wouldn't the confusion only exist if it was

Enable Flubber [X]

But not when labeled

Flubber Enabled [X]?

To me there problem here is understanding if the toggle is displaying a state or action because English is limited. But in the past tense version that is far less confusing because it clearly expresses that this is a state and cannot be an action (i.e. "Would you like to Flubber Enabled?" doesn't work nor does "Would you like to Enabled Flubber?" but "Would you like to Enable Flubber?" does). The "ed" matters as well as the word positions. The reason being is that the second word describes the state of the first which is why you can change it. In your example it is easy to understand with the checkbox but the thread at hand is about how toggle switches' visual appearance is confusing so your example is clearly not obvious (otherwise this thread wouldn't be on the front page). The idea of toggling the label means that there are now two indicators of __state__ that should verify one another and thus reduce confusion.
People keep making that claim, and yet when I ask for example of lying, I never seem to get anything.

Just asking for money while you already have money is not inherently lying. You might not like it, but lying involves making untrue statements. "We need your money" is not untrue, even if you already have a lot of money. "We need your money or else we'll shut down" would be untrue, but all of the pitches I've seen don't include anything like that.
