Not to be pedantic (ok a little bit), but you don't normally include any costs on your balance sheet, but you might want to include them on your income statement.
I suggest using XSLT to transform Docbook to other XML. It’s purpose-built for that task. Saxonica offers a Python plug-in, though truth is that the XSLT solution can do everything you need.
Would it really benefit Amazon though? If Stripe are already putting hundreds of millions through AWS, they'd essentially be losing a large customer by buying them.
Luckily,I am fine with people having different points of view, even when they are wrong. I have the right to see them but not engage or to point and laugh and move on, they don't reserve the right to force me to engage. This person wishes to take the right away from people to even know of the differing point of view, never allowing dissent or support. Good effort though.
Yep I've seen similar in various countries with a parent. They were prescribed large doses of some opioid pain killers and despite them being aware of the risk of addiction and thus being very careful about dosing (often skipping doses if the pain was tolerable and asking doctors to minimize the dose), in the end they still had a difficult time coming off them. They didn't end up trying to feed that habit from elsewhere, but it was still a lesson in how quickly a dependency can be formed.

How do you manage to get 20-25% on Hilton hotels? True, I never accomplished anything more than Silver membership, but I also read the analysis that one Hilton point is worth like 0.6 cent. It takes a while to accumulate even 100.000 points, and then that's worth maybe 1 free night.

> Why do so many people want to check out of life completely by abusing medicine?

Painkillers can provide relief for emotional pain as well as physical pain.

Even something like Tylenol can help people going through painful breakups.

Unfortunately opioids are addictive and users build up tolerance, which is bad for people with chronic pain of any variety.
Ok just to be clear you're saying a 2400 rating isn't impressive? I'm not sure this is a hill worth dying on for the sake of useless pedantry.
I have now after ensuring that he came back the second time and he said its not practical. I would have expected him to have told me the first time as that's his area of expertise. He only said its not practical after he came back out and I asked him to confirm that he was confident there would be no issue with the existed lifted floor. That's exactly what I mean, they say yes to anything to get the job and then only after the deposit is made do they start to hedge that there is a complication. We are now not going to fill the sunken living room but are going to attempt to seal the exterior of the house, add gutters and add a french drain system. Something completely different from what he originally pitched.

If I ask a contractor how to prevent water seeping into my sunken living room and surrounding areas, and he tells me filling it with concrete is the best approach and provides a quote to do so I expect that he has taken all existing facts into consideration.

Most of the responses to this are just preconceptions or assumptions.

Azure does have unique offerings, such as higher-spec compute nodes than AWS and RDMA-capable “HPC” sizes that can be used to build mini supercomputers.

AFAIK, no other public cloud has this type of capability.
Highly Anticipated HIV Vaccine Fails in Large Trial
Less than half is not "most". 1.4 million felons were covered by the Amendment the voters approved to restore felon voting rights, but as your link states a few months later the legislature passed a law to limit that which made 775000 of those felons no longer eligible.

What’s your solution to the low pH and total lack of minerals? I’ve tried mineral drops (out of Utah) but their composition is not comparable to „normal“ water and they seem to give me headaches sometimes.
You're right. When I meet a guy off craigslist that wants to sell me his car, he needs proof that I didn't steal the $12k I'm handing him in an envelope, and then I keep tabs on him to make sure he doesn't do anything illegal with the money.
Adjacently, on the Russian side you have SF-flavored satire like Bulgakov's Heart of a Dog, and on the French side you have stuff like L'Écume des jours.

I can confirm that the code looks totally different. Anyway there's no reason someone writing a libc would waste their time with pieces of code from other provenance. It takes less time to write a minimalist printf than trying to adapt an existing one to your exact needs, types, validity domains etc, and it'll be easier to extend yours that someone else's. You can write it however you want, it will always end up with a loop around a switch/case :-)
If we won't jail CEO and BoD, a snitch reward would fix much of this abuse. It could be funded privately.
Thinking it’s not my fault worked for me. Your argument is a conservative argument.
The US is really a bunch of corporations in a trenchcoat. Each year, my faith that the executive class will see meaningful prosecution in cases such as this diminishes.

I see it similarly to asking the police to investigate themselves for negligence.
There’s also the medical systems unwillingness to help certain people and medicate; then people end up on the street getting more dangerous drugs in an uncontrolled fashion.
Not sure why you're downvoted either, it's a legit concern. One way to address it is by being very conservative and picky with gems. A good example is Hey's Gemfile (the app made by Rails creators): https://gist.github.com/dhh/782fb925b57450da28c1e15656779556. It's a good (albeit slightly outdated) example of not straying too far from defaults, while not reinventing the wheel either.
You know, if there are enough people like you then you can generate a lot of additional demand for flights, and an airline will actually add flights to their schedule to accommodate that. The law of supply and demand still works here.

> Don't they have, in the sense that to keep probing ever more precisely, you need ever more energy, and at some point too much mass~energy in a too small volume is going to form a black hole and you cannot go further ?

This may or may not be true - we can't probe those length scales yet, and maybe ever, so we don't really know - but it has no bearing on ordinary QM, which is nonrelativistic.

Fishery: paid for transportation to the job, free housing and food on the job, and at the end of it you have a couple grand that hasn’t been blown on anything — free to do whatever you want with.

Tough work. You’re on a boat for 1-2 months. You work 12ish hours a day. If your body is able (or you can make it able), it’s good.

Next up is getting housing and cleaning yourself up for greener pastures. Oil fields is one. Lineman/tower climber is another.

Easy six figures. After a year of doing nothing but work, figure out what you want to do from there.

The work will distract you from your problems, and the change in environment will reset your mindset.

Lots of well-paid trades work in Washington for people that don’t have anything to lose.
That isn't the only way to argue for a minimal significant distance. Arguably QM sets a strict ~60-70 digit precision limit on physical constants [1], beyond which you arguably can't differentiate between discrete and continuous theories, and so a minimum distance seems like a perfectly sensible way to frame it.

Displayed would have been a static unmoving screen of text (a typical BBS display), so the unsynced perturbations of haphazard raspberry motion should create enough randomly coincident content time-slices to form a complete image.

Reading HN, I get the strong suspicion many people didn’t grow up around drugs.

People don’t always think they are throwing away their lives. They think “this makes me cool” and “it’s no big deal” and “anyone who’s anyone does it”. Often there’s the confident assertion “this ruins other peoples lives but I’m too good/special for that”. And often they don’t even realize it’s a problem, even when they’ve hit rock bottom, even when they’ve ruined their families lives for their drug addiction.

I’m not claiming other, much sadder reasons don’t exist. Or that we shouldn’t do something to help people survive and recover, like this vaccine that could mean thousands of lives saved, thousands of fewer mothers crying at funerals.

But there is also a lot of personal responsibility involved, and we can’t make this claim, that I see so many people on HN try to make, that people who have ruined their life (and more importantly, often their families lives) thru their own choices have no responsibility. That it’s all fault of vague “society” and if we just ban together with <vague handwavy socialist/utopian/whatever vision>, that people will stop making bad decisions about their lives.
The reason for this is that a lot of the base has a "Strong man" centric world view, where a good thing is a thing done by a "good" person, meaning a good person can do no wrong and a bad person can do no right, while everything a "good" person does is by definition good.

This means that the people they follow and support can do an identical action to someone they hate, but the liked person does a good thing and the hated person does a bad thing in their eyes.

Take for example, epstein. Both Bill Clinton and Trump (among a hundred others) were clearly and publicly acquaintances of Epstein, however, to conservatives, clinton is a pedophile and trump is innocent.
That's a pretty good observation though - it's only because ChatGPT spits out language that appears to convey some of the sorts of thought patterns that humans have that we're even having this discussion, but is it even relevant? I would think a chimpanzee or a dolphin (or a human with the inability to use language for some reason) would far more obviously qualify as sentient than a LLM. And as you say, a similar computational model that generates images or music instead doesn't even provoke the debate about possible sentience.
Personally I don't think there's any doubt at this point - ChatGPT itself constantly reminds you in no uncertain terms that it's "just a language model". I've never seen it display anything remotely like emotion, hope/desires, seen it attempt to plead or engage with you in any sort of way. It can't initiate anything (unprompted, it will never just bring up something to talk about), it shows no curiosity, fails to appreciate or recognise humour, never seems to show uncertainty, and frankly has no "personality" (at best there are a few particular turns of phrase it tends to use that I might associate with it, but compared to the 100s of cases where I've got to know actual humans purely through online text-based interactions, there's really no comparison).
Once we start to see those sorts of clear indicators of human-like sentience (probably sooner than we expect!) then it's worth revisiting the discussion.
What I meant was that maybe we should discourage everyone to be “one person” online and rather encourage using multiple different identities and especially not posting party pics (or anything personal) under real names.

Maybe we shouldn’t use real names at all on the web.
You shouldn’t dismiss people’s opinions because they’re addicts… I agree with this hypothetical addict that you think should be ignored.
AoC lets you ignore how bad the set it.

Banach-Tarski says:
Take a measurable set.
Split it up into 2 unmeasurable sets.
Recombine them into a set with twice the measure of the original.

OK, you can do that, but you've lost the ability to make any reasonable theorems about measure of measurable sets, unless you add qualifications of the form "this theorem does not apply if you introduce a set of uncountable sets" which. What's the benefit? To get a bunch of "proofs" for things that are only true because of the axiom, and don't model anything else we care about?
Something Is Strange with the Google Pixel 7 Pro’s Zoom Processing
Coming from a more traditional (yet still digital) photography background I think it's fascinating what tricks manufacturers are using to improve image quality. E.g. using the optical image stabilizer to add (!) a bit of camera shake, somewhat increasing the optical resolution.

Is this a common thing for smartphones today? I never heard about that, but it's always hard to decode the marketing speech such as "AI enhanced super resolution".

I'd trust your nose. If you can smell it printing, it means you're smelling the outgassing of unburnt and burnt plastics.

You could also get a pm10 and pm2.5 air quality monitor for a more scientific measurement. Gasses won't trigger those, depending on what they are.. I guess you could make a forced air device with 20 sensors in it, but nothing on the market is like that.

As for limited exposure, it's probably not too bad. But uncovered in bedroom... Whole different story.

In 2022 and start of 2023 we have moved all of our servers away from Docker Compose to just running bare metals. Yes a bit more setup in the start, but it makes it easier to maintain the servers. It really feels like all of these good ideas of the unix philosphy are getting rebuilt ontop of this new stack. Like they're rediscovering all of it again.

Really GitHub, no details? That looks like something which could easily hugely decrease donations for _some_ people.

TikTok is popular because it brought back humans, and importantly nice humans to the Internet.

> was that the village idiots would also come along

An example of a village idiot would be someone with Down syndrome, I couldn't say I see it more or less than real life on TikTok. I think that's complex, we didn't handle that well in the past, we don't handle it well now but it's still orders of magnitude better.

TikTok is more human than anything else, unlike Instagram for instance, but it's still an escape from the real world. It's not fair to expect it to be reality, we have reality for that. Just be happy it's non-toxic.

Even the awareness of our own thoughts, and certainly the sensation that we're somehow "in control of them" (vs being determined by the laws of physics) is almost certainly largely an illusion...

Interesting, 1800-2000 years ago is right back in a time when it's somewhat harder to make a distinction between the various Germanic language families. Very close to a more common Germanic era, so if there's much written here it could tell us a lot about Germanic family language evolution.

But it does sound like it's the usual "I, cmrdporcupine, wrote this rune" graffiti form :-) Not a lot of words

What worked for me was the old Chessmaster tutorials done by Josh Waitzkin. It gives you structured practice problems around general principles and strategies. It was kind of addicting the way they structured it and made me want to keep going. What I got out of it were the general fundamentals that allow you to perform an opening without using pure memorization, and how to look for tactical advantages in mid game like forks and skewers. Once I finished it I started easily seeing all the opening mistakes other beginners made and won a bunch of games just following the general principles. I’ve tried some other similar tutorials since but it is still the best I’ve used as an interactive tutorial.
Conflating a holistic approach that acknowledges the material effect of the context around a person with the assertion that those things existing nullifies the contribution of said person's agency is one of the very stupidest contributions of individualism to society. Things can materially make abuse more likely. Actions can be taken _by society_ that will make any particular _individual_ abuse less likely, whatever the specifics in each individual situation. It is still largely effort by an abuser and their closest contacts that will make _specific, individual_ abuse less likely in the future. None of these analyses contradict.
I know that if I print PLA and stay in the room, it will give me a headache after a while. And I can definitely smell it, so at least something is getting released into the air. I don't know if that actually means it's harmful, but I stopped staying in the same room if a printer is running.

But URLClassLoader does, which definitely has something to do with this.

True, before you get there, you'd first need it to compile - but modern JDKs have a compiler API that allows customization via the StandardJavaFileManager interface, and that looks like it should be able to do the job to make source file names follow a different convention.

How we turned the tables to catch my sister’s Bumble stalker
I worked for a company back in 2009-10 that was trying to make giant (8ftx12ft ish) LED billboards by using 6 spinners with LED arms that overlapped (IYSWIM.)

Only saw it spin up once and it terrified me - all the wheels had to be chain-linked and -driven because they'd tried keeping 6 motors synced up at the same exact speed whilst spinning round hefty 4ft propellors and it just led to the arms hitting each other and "rapid unscheduled disassembly" - not what you want for your roadside adverts.

They also made huge cylindrical ones that were actually deployed at a few places in London and around the UK. Never really took off because the mini-PCs inside[1] tended to shake themselves to bits after a few months of spinning around at 4000rpm.

[1] I obtained my first Mac Mini from them free because they'd tried that in a cylinder, the hard drive Did Not Like It, and they were just throwing it away.
Great project! I used it to create a Twitter bot that posts Doom videos (@tweet2doom). Back then it didn't have sound support, but it is great to see that it supports it now.
