Yea, but he was already a professional practicing surgeon! The rest of us should not attempt this; we should hire a professional. It is similarly preferable to hire the services of a professional lawyer most of the time.
The publishers in this case are the free riders.

They not only get free content from the authors, free labor from the reviewers.

They get to charge the readers but also THE FREAKING AUTHORS for their submissions.
There is a lot of air between you and space, unlike the moon and space.

True. But the magnetic field is not insignificant.

We'd be fine.

False.

And the power grid isn't going to be taken down by just the magnetic field switching off, even CMEs are only a risk to the grid because of how they react with the magnetic field (and even then we could prevent that but for the politics).

Where are you getting this stuff man?

Plus we could fairly trivially make a replacement magnetic field.

Hahaha. Yeah right! As if
It really depends on what exactly is broken. If it's a BGA chip, it's much easier to just replace the whole board, because almost no one has the facilities or expertise to replace BGA packages on a board correctly. If it's a connector or a capacitor, you can do that with a soldering iron if you have some skill. If it's some little 14-pin SOIC package (with 0.5mm pin spacing) and you have a hot-air rework tool, it's trivial to replace it. Of course, most hobbyists don't have hot-air rework tools (they're not expensive though).
I used the language panel a lot, to see what differences are in an article in different languages.Now they shoved it away to the top right, why? Plus it's a searchable box... aaaarrrggghhh.

Have they used a heatmap or something and made changes based on that or just thought this will be fine?

The textual structure should change into something easier to digest. In the first paragraph I'd like to see a dead simple answer phrased with common words. There are a lot of articles where they use all kinds of mumbojumbo in order to explain something trivial...
Not necessarily bad name, but the company where I'm currently in is itself called "CAW", short for "Chimps At Work".

It can't do that yet but I'm really excited about the day coming when AI can understand an entire code base.

ChatGPT has already completely revolutionized programming for me, I loove forward to further advances.

It's truly unbelievable, like have a permanent pair programmer with me who I can ask how things work, how to fix problems, and more importantly than anything else, ask for examples of how to do things, which I then hack into my code.

I met a luthier who really liked Gretsch hollow body guitars, so much so that he counterfeited a late 1960s vintage model right down to the serial number, building every part by hand. Gretsch are highly collectable, can sell for up to $5K and more for a vintage year in good condition, but many if not most of them are notoriously poorly made and play terribly. The only way you could tell the counterfeit wasn't real was that it was too well made and played like butter. His 1968 Country Gentleman counterfeit Gretsch would sell at auction for over $30K. He probably finished it in 1991. No one believed it was real, that's just what his guitars sell for.
It's the Windows version; you can run it on Linux with Wine though. I'm not sure there ever was a DOS version of Fallout.

IMHO Fallout 2 was a lot better; it's a lot larger and has a lot more story to it. Neither game has aged especially well though. The UI in particular is awkward.

Underrail is a pretty good "modern Fallout", although it also shares some of the general problems (e.g. too much reliance on randomness, can be unfairly hard unless you already know the game well, bit of a walking simulator at times).

Thanks this is helpful!

I started my project without cargo at first and tried to start writing code without a cargo.toml. I was surprised that cairo didn't default to 2021 until I specified it in the .toml file. Good point that cargo init/new would have solved this!

I guess my point about the compiler was that it seems to rely on cargo.toml for many 'optimizations' that I would expect to be defaults. (Examples include the two i mentioned above).

But I'm new to the language and understand that most people will just use `cargo init` and google a few other common cargo.toml settings to improve compile times.
> How much of, say, Suburban Florida remains usable if we price cars high enough to make their use unadvisable?

Idk. How much remains usable if it’s under water? Should we let people in Florida tax the rest of the country for their road development? Can Florida afford to maintain and build the roads they want to build?

> Old US cities only became car centric through massive amounts of pain and hardship, which happened to hit people that were mostly politically disenfranchised.

> You can be a scientist without publishing in top journals.

But you can't be a scientist without obtaining grant money. And publishing - particularly in top journals - is the major way to accomplish that.
The authors are voluntarily submitting their work and agreeing to any contractual provisions, no?

Scientists are not obligated to publish in journals at all.
Is this downvoted by salty Android users, or actually disagreed upon?

This is a randomness distillation function that gets entropy from a system source like linux getrandom() or the OpenSSL RNG. It's nice but it is purely computational. It doesn't harvest entropy on its own, if that is what you were hoping.
You can be a scientist without grant money, though. Most “scientists” are not published in these so called top journals.

That’s true and I am not worried for Google in the slightest. However, once a tool is good enough, both the branding and use of it becomes somewhat sticky. It’s why people still call any tablet an iPad, and it’s one of the reasons even if a large search engine launched tomorrow people would keep using google for a long time. The problem isn’t being first, it’s if they crack changing consumer habits while google is biding their time.
No, but involuntary celibacy can cause mental disorders.
No. First off, I said grammar, not word meaning.

Second, saying "Ouch" is not even language. My cat says something when I step on her paw. That doesn't mean she understands language, nor that she speaks some language.

Third, you're right about pain, but an ML model can associate the word "red" with the color, and "walk" with images of people walking, and "sailboat" with certain images or videos, and plenty of other concepts. If that was what learning a language was, then AIs would understand language in lots of areas, if not in the specific domain of pain. But they don't.

Corruption usually involves multiple parties. It really is the universities that are corrupt equally, if not more.
From that link:

"AE: Although the Soviet Union collapsed, the communist ideology remained strong, so I grew up in an environment where communism was still an inspiring idea. Hence, I always understood Sci-Hub as a communist project. The first version of Sci-Hub even had a small hammer and a sickle on the website, and if you hovered a mouse over it, text would pop up stating, “The communist society…is based upon common ownership of the means of production with free access to articles of consumption”

Knowledge today has become the private property of corporations such as the publisher Elsevier. These corporations are making a lot of money, while researchers are poor and exploited. Sci-Hub is against all of this. Knowledge belongs to everyone and all people should have equal access to it. Sci-Hub is fighting for communism in science."
'Modern' women just aren't that interested in hookups with 5/10 guys, deal with it. Maybe blame men for being so indiscriminate?
I agree with both points. One of the things I miss from my previous job is a thriving mattermost instance with channels full of jokes mixed with technical (but not necessarily work-related) info. It really brought the team together and I believe it had many indirect positive productivity effects.

For some reason I never saw this magic replicated with Slack.
>which is nice because I watch Youtube mostly on the TV, so I don't get ads.

How do you avoid ads on the TV? I have a TV running GoogleOS (Android), with YouTube as an app of course, and it's full of ads. I finally learned about SmartTubeNext and installed it and it's bliss. But the regular, out-of-the-box experience was horrible with the regular YouTube ads.
Yea exactly. At this point I am checked out of the mass internet and the things I do use (other than HN I suppose) I’m glad to pay for.

There is no such thing as a “US Federal DA”.

I assume you mean a US Attorney. OTOH, US Attorneys and Federal Public Defenders (in the judicial districts that have them, its a district by district decision under the governing law) may not be the most knowledgeablr about this since most cases are tried in state court and the federal indigent defense delivery system is very different from most state systems, both in structural model and caseload.

Somebody described Slack vs Teams this way:

- Slack is so easy and fun to use that we use it for things we shouldn't be (fun channels, fun integrations). It creates too much noise and hard to extract signal. It ends up being distracting past 100+ people company.

- Teams is so bad that people try not to use it. It forces you to use it minimally because everything is terrible. It actually ends up being more productive than Slack.

I can't say for sure, but it seems like there's a big market for internet-of-things developers, and working on small-capacity systems with limited computer resources definitely demands such understanding. It's cheap to try out, since microcontrollers with a usb interface can be bought for just a few dollars, and the development tools like Arduino IDE or VS code plugins are reasonably mature. IT's also fun to work on tiny computers, without being difficult to get started.
Ugh, I worked at places like that. Usually the more enterprisey ones are like that in my experience.
Love your tools!

I think you should consider changing "library" to "documentation" - for whatever reason I also struggled to discover "library" actually meant docs - but only after I also clicked on a specific version.

I think the best UI/UX for this is something like django's [0], where "documentation" brings you straight to the latest version's documentation.

> "ok I'm just going to do only this now"

for most of the games and other VR entertainment stuff, this is precisely what the producers what of you. they throw around terms like immersive. they want you in the world they created and believe that it make the experience that much more when you forget about where you really are and believer yourself to be in the virtual place. there's a definite time and place for that idea, but have never once felt that the content i was "immersed" in really had me at a level of suspension of disbelief to the level the producers had hoped.

at that point, what is the point of it. i am not one bit intrigued by theZuck's vision. i do not want to hang out in a virtual conference room around a virtual conference table looking at cartoon versions of people because it's cute. you can cute the fuck out of it until the knob goes to eleven, but it doesn't make this boring as meeting any more enjoyable.

Nope. I don't do labor on demand for anybody but my clients. I'm sure you can figure it out if you try, though.
You see related issues with operations too. I was contracted to a company using WebSphere, and they had 4 people (including myself) doing very little except tediously deploying applications to the clusters.

So I took a chunk of my downtime and wrote a deployment engine, to eliminate some of the common mistakes, and ideally make things much faster/predictable.

In hindsight I can see why the team didn't like the idea: in addition to the new Perl code that someone would have to support, it was a serious risk to their jobs. If deployments that previously took 2-3 hours of tedium were reduced to 20 minutes of scripting, why would they need 4 people to do it?
How can DataDog threaten open source developers? Can they sue them? what is it?
I did look up the definitions and they don't support your argument

License: a permit from an authority to own or use something, do a particular thing, or carry on a trade

Credential: a qualification, achievement, personal quality, or aspect of a person's background, typically when used to indicate that they are suitable for something.

Sure, you can characterize the license as an achievement. But it's really just a license.
I would be extremely surprised if they don't still support traditional iRules syntax (or even offer Lua, honestly). This is hardware that gets used by banks and governments; they don't just switch their API, with all the massive re-training that would entail, in a few years. There is a gargantuan amount of legacy code and support to consider.

Yep. Let those below argue over “they want a credit card!” as if that isn’t exactly what people have been begging for. I gladly pay for Kagi and people who are now complaining because it doesn’t have some esoteric payment method were never looking to have the problem solved in the first place.

I’m not sure what these people are searching for but I want to pay for a search engine that doesn’t show ads and doesn’t track me. A credit card comes with the territory for mass adoption.
I would quit, but I'm currently a student and pay $7.49 monthly, which is worth it to me because in addition to the delivery times, I find some value in prime video. If I wasn't paying that rate, I would quit, because it just isn't enough value for the money for me. Same deal with Spotify.

If there was no such plan for students, I would not pay for either.
Cool. Continue using Google then.

Maybe, maybe not, but its 100% a qualification, so its definitely
a credential.
Lust for Luxury: Yahya Jammeh’s Car Collection
As a good consultant and contractor, Slack great at holding people - particularly decision makers, to account.

Oh you forgot you told me to do this? Here's the message from 6 months ago.

I'm excited to work with organisations who have executive staff that use Slack, but from talking with employees - even Stewart Butterfield stopped using Slack over the past few years except for company announcements.

Companies that embrace open decision making, blameless (to a degree) culture and transparency who embrace Slack, and good work-life balance, are far and few.

People who get mad about having too many channels simply are putting too much pressure on themselves. As long as you look at your DM's, when people tag you directly - or your close team's channel - you're using Slack correctly. If people expect you to view or have seen something elsewhere, you should have known about it through your manager, through direct tags/DM's or whatever your #very-important-announcement channel is. That's it.

I haven't form my opinion on the gatekeeping nature of the academic journals, so I won't comment on that.

Verificationism isn't some stunning riposte. Call it a god in the gaps if you'd like, but there's no straightforward route from matter -> qualia.
In this case there is very much intent. OP knows there isn't enough data to form a full model so is relying on stochastic death to get the model data, literally and knowingly trading lives for data. The intent is to kill people to figure out what information is missing.
Where I see VR go the most wrong is, particularly when business people get involved, is the mistake of trying to recreate reality. I have at least a Library of Congress on my computer, which I can access without having to deal with Euclidean Geometry. I don't schlep through miles of shelves looking for something. I just look for it. That's profoundly important to the reasons why we went to digital from analog.

If you want to make VR "work", you have to also have non-Euclidean Geometry. Things need to be smaller on the outside. You need to be able to affect the "world" through intention, not action. In a word, you need magic. Which dovetails pretty well with video games.
