Mind fleshing out how you think that relates to this article? One is left guessing at what you mean.
Because Framework is only available at, what seems to me like, tablet sizes. I know a lot of people love that size and that's fantastic, but I'm happy to see a ~15.6" option also being offered for those that prefer it.
Brutal Spear of Destiny – Floor 4: Tunnels [GZDoom]

Also drop downs are "attached" to some element in the UI, and you probably want those menus to scroll with the page
Henbane contains Scopolamine which is, in my opinion, the best drug available for long term motion sickness prevention.
Makes sense the Norse had it on a ship.
You can get patches of it today, one on the neck lasts 3 days, transforms a person who gets seasick easily to one with the stomach of a seasoned sailor. Never used the stuff myself but have had to get it prescribed for buddies who couldn’t keep their dinner (or water) down after dark.
I would too, but https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34759951 suggests otherwise.
> So, musicians of HN, what resources have you or yours used to learn how to play a new instrument or style?

For guitar, the single best online resource is justinguitar.com. The dude is a legend. He has made hundreds of free lessons providing a comprehensive education in guitar.

A lot of people also swear by Yousician for guitar/piano/ukulele.

I've used the video game Rocksmith, which claims to be able to teach you guitar or bass. It's OK - more a bit of fun than a learning tool.

For more specific instruments - like clawhammer banjo and the dobro (which looks like a resonator guitar played lap-style), I think YouTube might be your best bet.

If you guys already know some music theory, you'll probably pick things up pretty well and have a lot of fun just through YouTube.

If this is your wife's first instrument, might I suggest something a bit more common? It makes a big difference, as there's so many more online resources for, say, piano/guitar, and a lot more answers when you get stuck.

> Declaring the body to be correct and the mind wrong seems arbitrary...

Hardly, our understanding of the human body is more experimentally valid and much more aesthetically developed than our understanding of the human mind. If there is some kind of 'mismatch' as you say and the body appears well regulated, then the medically responsible move is to defer to it.
That's a cute bookmark, though this is unfortunate:

As a non-Muslim, I wonder about the medical necessity of male or female circumcision, especially as it is commonly practiced without the consent of the patient. The latter is illegal in the US as of 2021, but the former seems a much larger and more pressing issue than gender affirming care.

I just don't get the obsession with this topic. If you're a parent, your kids are being told things you don't like all the time, including being propositioned or being offered recreational drugs. This is very low on my list of worries. Talk to them to help them make better decisions, using logical arguments instead of groundless religious commandments. Problem solved.
Looking at the comments section, the misleading narrative of H-1B workers being underpaid is so damn widespread. It is an issue where some crook firms exploit it but isn't one when it comes to Big Tech. Why would employers willingly spend thousands of dollars of immigration expenses if they could do without it and hire US workers? The employment-based visa program has tons of flaws but cheap labor isn't one of them.
Japan adopts plan to make maximum use of nuclear power

I run a self hosted version of Sentry.io on a NUC at home and a relay on a VPS, the. Use Tailscale to connect the two.

If you have an old computer at home, using a VPS as the gateway is always a good option.

Edit: you can then use the VPS as a exit node for internet.
You think it's implausible that some top-level brass think their employees have gotten a little bit too restive for their liking? Sometimes they're even not too circumspect to say it: https://www.wsj.com/articles/layoffs-labor-market-bosses-pow...

> He added: “I think the recent trends, the layoffs, will help to bring a little bit of balance into that.”

And frankly, people have come up with a lot more cruel things to do to other human beings than just dismissing them in a deliberately humiliating way.

You still occasionally come across dictionaries ordered by this poem.

Yes, you can easily pass the URL of the README.md to slidesdown via the ?slides=URL query parameter and it will load that file instead of SLIDES.md.

The level 38 is my personal favorite.

I have seen so many of my friends otherwise good at puzzles struggle with it.

It's the first puzzle that requires two relatively non obvious tricks to solve. The first is bringing two pieces in the middle corridor, the second is to use back and forth movement to pass a piece.
Both tricks need to be precise and deliberate. It's the first level that is very tough to solve by random walk.
The previous owners of our house did all the electrics and plumbing. So far we've had 3 major floods, an electrical fire, and the garage door cables snapped. I'm all for people actually having qualifications to show their training. You wouldn't want people driving around who'd never passed a driving test would you?
Also would explain why the majority of these modern sightings is in American airspace.
Hackers Interrupt Raisi's Revolution Day Speech on State TV
> It falls apart when you have multiple monitors with different scaling

Yeah that's my colleagues! This is why half the monitors in the office are not being used :D. Someone thought it was a great idea to get three or four 4k screens but only one person actually wants them; everyone wants their laptop as a second or third screen. (Personally I'm a single-screen type of person anyway, but what made me commandeer a 1080p screen is the very noticeable lag that my 2018 i5 Lenovo had when trying to drive a 4k screen with or without display scaling. Got a new work laptop now that ought to not have that problem, but I haven't bothered trying yet.)

Anyhow, thanks for the pointers! Especially that 120 Hz AMD thing sounds like a big caveat.
In my case, it's almost always because I have to go to sleep.
Most counterfactual fiction in this space has the repressive state continuing to be repressive and normalising "othering" of <bad people> and it's a well trodden path. Robert Harris, Len Deighton, Ira Levin, Yevgeny Zamyatin. Harry Harrison, Ward Moore.

Winning under MAD is moot. There undoubtedly will be losers at scale.

Historians differ if forcing the soviets to bankruptcy was necessarily better than a rapprochement. It worked, sure but like the end of ww1 gave birth to stab in the back rightist views of history, the FSU is now a kleptocracy and minor fights in Africa and the Middle east are now entrenched social cancers.

Afghanistan and the role of US funds to Pakistan on the region. Not a net benefit all told.
I do wish he dwelt on task groups a bit more at the end. Many comments here seemed too have missed that bit. They're not just a handy way of executing a hack. Instead, they're a revolutionary way (ok maybe that's a but string but not much) to structure your async program to avoid a whole host of bugs.

A code snippet would have been nice, or a link to the blog post that introduced them (in trio, another async library): https://vorpus.org/blog/notes-on-structured-concurrency-or-g...
> but it gets in the way when you're rapidly prototyping and exploring.

If you prototype a new features for an existing system, a test let you execute only the code you actually need. This will shorten your feedback loop and allow you to iterate faster. Refactoring a test is fine. Writing a BS test just to explore a solution is fine.
In my experience following a test lead practice will help you build a simpler system which will be easier to maintain.
My guess is they are a small internal team and their users are company employees. Otherwise, I can't imagine another scenario where that statement makes sense.

For TDD, sure. I'm saying if you're doing scratch work, don't use TDD. It's a tool, not a religion.
Don't forget the influence of Industry groups. My favorite example is barbers.

I can respect the value of having a barbers license two people that want to assure a minimum quality and training in their haircuts. I also find it absurd that as a consenting adult I can't pay someone to cut my hair without a year-long training and apprenticeship program.
A complaint ietf draft authors can relate to. Good ideas get crickets, bad ideas go deep.
Play is important to a child's development. Try to refocus and retain that the context of the conversation is about medical interventions not playground games.

It is self-evident that reversing a decision to play freeze tag is orders of magnitude easier than reversing a dental tooth cleaning; a mundane medical procedure.
They don't want to inconvenience their customers, and that would be too wide of a block.
Look at the feature-list of that repo. Half of it are actually deficiencies in postgres that warrants the external complexities, not something induced by kubernetes.

Sure, a lot of it is nice-to-haves but some are absolutely essential for even a basic postgres deployment even if you used VMs... Like, why is replication so difficult, why do i need all these extensions and why do i need to deploy a bouncer as a separate service in 2023?!
"Don't worry -- the reasons you have for anxiety are illegitimate" is sure to calm people down. If software doesn't work out you should consider talk therapy.
In the case of safari, upgrades are tied to OS updates, so upgrading may require updating the entire OS, and in the worst case might require the user to buy a new phone.

If stackoverflow taught me anything, you will only summon Zalgo by trying.
Plus, the worst offenders have a vested interest in making those hard to block. For example, my 2 common offenders are Twitter and reddit displaying modals on mobile prompting for app download. Both companies have no interest in making these easy to block.
I bought an SDR dongle for recording temperature and humidity from a couple of small battery powered transmitters.

I found that the location of my main desktop was perfect for reading the sauna temperature/humidity every minute, but I couldn't simultaneously record values from my balcony. Perhaps my concrete walls were too thick, or the transmitter.

However I soon noticed that those tyre-pressure sensors also spit out the temperature. So the end result was that my receiver could get the temperature of my sauna - which I use to send an SMS with "sauna is ready" - and the outside air.

I'm on the second floor, and there's a car-park 20m away from the side of the house. On average I get readings over most parts of the day, as the various cars come and go.
I went to a couple startup events in Bay Area and I’m not being a hater but it was the equivalent of “glamping” with people dripped out in designer clothing and taking group photos than people interested in talking about solving any actual problems.

Like I was hoping for people who want to leverage AI to do some cool shit or solve some difficult problem in some industry. You know, something actually useful. I wanted to talk about my scheduling software, or discuss some challenges in industry I don’t know shit about.

Instead people were talking about their (yet another) copy of a copy of a wellness app..

Granted I’m fresh af to this game but I honestly felt so out of place. Nobody was talking tech and people were talking about their vacations to some exotic places and taking selfies. That’s fine, but nobody really seemed like an engineer or solver minded person.

It was honestly bizarre and kind of depressing. I felt like I had better tech and ideation focused discussions in my tiny city that I left to move to Bay Area.
> What's the business value argument for not using Elm?

The time and energy investment into using any JS code in Elm for things not currently sorted out is severely disproportional to the value provided by Elm. The ROI is just not there. If you compare it to the FFI layer of PureScript, there is no question that it's nice to have validation, etc., but it's just not worth it.

The very restrictive view of packages (where to get them, what you can upload and use, etc.) is also a very obvious deal breaker.

I would be surprised that you find these two things that everyone keeps bringing up not to be good answers to your question, but then I remember how being in the Elm community felt like: "Everything Evan says or thinks we all think". It's the same culty feel that Elixir has a lighter version of.

> "Meta did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment outside of normal business hours."

Just to air a side gripe, I don't know why journalists and/or editors think statements like this are helpful in the least. Did you ask them 1 hour before your deadline? Was it a week ago?

Are we to gain some better understanding or infer something by your inclusion of this caveat, other than to get a superficial cover-your-ass "we asked them at some vague time we can't be bothered to state, and haven't heard back yet"?

Back to the substantive content, this article can be summarized by the first sentence of it, minus the regurgitated 2/3 of the rest of the story. "We heard someone in some division say their budgets aren't final yet, so we're guessing that more cuts are possible."

I don’t know if we’re listening to the same people, but both Bill Gates and Jim Simons say very insightful things. You do need to know what they’re talking about or hinting at. What I’d do to chat with either of them.
Jupyter is the main reason I come back to writing Python. I really wish there was a Jupyter environment for any language. I'm aware there exist kernels for other languages, but many of them are unstable, slow, outdated, or miss important features. I have tried multiple, and every time I come back to Python, not because I want to write Python, but because Jupyter works so well.
This is bad. I think the only reason it didn't work here is that you used smart quotes instead of straight quotes.

Edit: It's completely fixed now.
Not if it's common to both viruses and human cells you can't.
Maybe it’s sarcasm? On the other hand, the new school does have it pretty good these days with the evergreen browsers, so it could be genuine lack of perspective. Webkit is stubborn and slow moving, but nothing like what we endured with IE, especially since polyfills were not a ubiquitous concept and checking for feature support at runtime was a kind of dark art. I shudder just thinking about user agent strings again. If anything, my daily dose of strange BS these days comes from imposed third-party SaaS vendors rather than browser interop even when accounting for older versions of Safari.
One thing I haven't seen anyone else mention besides not being idiomatic Python is that ”if users == []" and it's ilk allocate a new empty object for the comparison. It's unnecessarily slow and wasteful.

Others have mentioned that the comparison to say a tuple will also fail. If the intent is to ensure a list instance, use isinstance, instead.
No need for /s.

How about you worry about yourself. What’s it to you if someone decides to get a vasectomy in their 40s? Or are you simply more interested in bending and controlling people with your personal moral views where “pleasure and fun” are sins.
I wonder if all of these layoffs have to do with this tax change:
https://beenegarter.com/rd-expense-capitalization-remains-ap...

Software engineering as an R&D expense can no longer be used in the same year, or has to be deprecated. If companies are trying to look profitable compared to bonanza years, they can’t be paying a bunch more to the government for extra engineers hired when the rule was still in place.
Eh, we all know ChatGPT can make these same kinds of errors. The only difference between Microsoft and Google is Microsoft did a better job of proofing their marketing materials. It's genuinely amazing watching Google taking a shellacking on this when all of these LLMs have the exact same problems.

The real problem is none of these technologies should be put in front of users in a way that might give them a patina of authority or certainty. Their ability to convincingly bullshit is incredibly dangerous and I'm amazed at how blithely irresponsible these companies are in pushing this technology out in front of users before it can be trusted.
Currently weather data is paid for by taxes. Although it hasn't always been, and it's currently under threat, so it's not a given going forward. But that's all beside the point.

The point is that it is in society's interest to just pay for some things that are widely benefited from. Weather data's just one example.

> if people want to be paid they need to make that need or desire explicitly clear and on the record

Nope!

> they don't get to subsequently complain

Also nope! You are not a person who gets to decide that for everybody.

A free license isn't a suicide pact or a ball gag. People can do things and then complain if it's not working out. Or not, as they prefer! But that too is beside the point. Which is that as a society we should figure out ways to support public goods like certain open-source software. Whether or not a given package maintainer asks.
Ha ha. Very funny.

But I meant more that even tho I was using pyenv somehow broke my gcloud cli and took me a few minutes of frustration to get things working again because I had to install some other dependencies I didn’t have. Eventually I just ended up using it in a vm. :/

> my eyes can hardly read small fonts on that DPI as it is (I'm ~30) and they're not going to get better with age

If you double the DPI it's going to be easier to read those fonts.
I did not know, and that is pretty cool. Thanks for mentioning it.
Yikes. Please report it.
I think you are rounding up a bit with those numbers... anyway, when I look around where I live I see people are just outright mismanaging their money with frivolous luxury items, very expensive cars, etc., for... what reason? To maintain an image? I'm not sure exactly. But I think an honest account would have to say that it's not just how hard it is to live (if it was what about the vast majority of people who aren't making that kind of money and do have a family, are they wizards?).
It’s a bit odd though, because I’ve heard plenty of stories with those conditions where that’s still not true. One example is bank software that must run on IE11 because IT refuses to upgrade the equipment and security isn’t a priority because it’s airgapped or something silly like that.
It is not that bad, except for the birds with introduction of cats.
I hope places continue to not accept Bitcoin. I can’t wait till it fades away.
You still have the issue of the z-index being relative to its parent, and not absolute. So depending on which element it is set, its effect would not be the same. It’s still a good practice to use constants, but I still often had difficulties to place elements relative to each others on the z-index.

It’s a basic courtesy that shows some amount of good faith, and helps the reader understand the degree to which all parties have had an opportunity to be heard, and whether or not they chose to seize it. It’s not necessarily suggestive of much, but it’s respectful and useful for context.

I went down a shallow rabbit hole about this event. The man who survived the Fu-Go Balloon Bomb event in Oregon, Reverend Artchie Mitchell, went on to be captured, as a Christian missionary, by the Viet Cong in 1962 and he was never seen again. Given enough time lightning strikes the same spot more than once, I guess.
Personally I find the styling in the link you posted sub-par to be 'serene'. These are the first I noticed, for what my n=1 is worth.

I think VR could (some day) work very well for this too. I like the idea of a virtual cabin on a snowy mountain to chill or explore from. Coding in VR doesn't seem to be really there yet but getting there. To work from home but virtually somewhere from a zenful space with magnificent view sounds interesting too.
Absolutely. For me it's an incremental, iterative process. I write a tiny bit of test. And then I make it pass, often in a way that's a little too simple. So then I'll go back and improve the test, which forces me to improve the code.

Writing too many tests feels like getting ahead of myself. It feels like a bet that I won't learn anything or think of anything new as I go. Which is a bet I don't like making, because it often becomes self-fulfilling.
The jury is out as to whether that is an exception or the rule.
