Thanks, that's very helpful. (I hadn't realized that their native utility used ffmpeg and could decode basically any audio because of that -- very cool!)
This describes me. Every couple of years I read an article like this, download a handful of monospaced fonts, and try to use each one for at least an hour. Inevitably, every one of them has some little problem that rubs me the wrong way, and I go back to my old standby: Consolas, the dad jeans of programming fonts. I've been using it for 15 years, and I think I'm doomed to use it for the rest of my career.
> I’d add though that unlike you, my diet more or less went the opposite direction and I feel much better too. I went completely plant-based with an emphasis on whole foods and as far as I can tell my entire body works better. I’m not saying you’re wrong because I absolutely believe you and agree that we were probably just extremely unhealthy before. Maybe any healthier diet would have sufficed. But yeah, this thing seems extremely variable from person to person. Plant based with heaps of carbs might annihilate your brain, but a bowl of barley with steamed tofu, broccoli, carrots, and peanut sauce is like heavenly brain food for me.

The great thing about the SAD (Standard American Diet) is that most any not-totally-insane restrictive diet will be significantly better. It hardly even matters which you choose, it will be better. When you start with terrible, even "bad" is an improvement!
> Just like software engineers are best qualified to evaluate software quality, doctors know medicine better than anyone else. Just because they are incentivized to protect their job doesn't mean they are wrong.

It was rather trivial for Boeing engineers to show, without a doubt, that the cheap offshored programmers didn't write software as good as they did. The design simply spoke for itself and didn't perform to spec.

Why not simply have doctors do the same? If their fellow medical workers can't deliver the same quality of care at the same speed and cost, then it should be trivial to show.
I have also been using CLJS/Clojure for a solo project. I debated between CL and Clojure for the backend, but CL’s package ecosystem is too weak to be justified. What other languages did you consider for your stack and what did you think were the tradeoffs?
Finally. Not being able to pre-render shadow dom on the server is what made me just skip it entirely.
The exact threshold used in the question probably doesn't matter that much, so long as survey is consistent over the years, so that it can show a trend.
I envy a good grid. Here on the east coast, in many cities only the very center core is gridded, with the rest being most of a hub-and-sprawly-spoke model. The only corridor through my 40-mile wide, 2M+ person metro area is a single Interstate that's basically a parking lot at rush hour, and also carries our bus-only transit system.
If you (or anyone) wants a really, REALLY good experience around this, go to your local small airport and find a flight instructor and ask them to show you "unusual attitudes" - they'll have you close your eyes and put your head down, do stuff with the plane, and then ask you what the plane is doing - you will say "turning down and to the right" and be in a climb to the left. It's freaky.
> These services depend on using their aggregator, not any you want.

Exactly. It could solve the problem if I was able to create accounts on those news sites, and link my apple account.
What makes you think GPT can be trained that fast so that it keeps up with newer documents, discussions, etc? It takes a long time for GPT models to come out. chatGPT is 2021 internet data, and you had a lot of people involved that made it possible. Do you envision the LLM constantly being fed updates by crawlers and indexers, with no need for human review or intervention?
Their comment appears to be about ability to pay, not value.
And this comment is a symptom of the lack of ethics training in the profession: if critiquing technology in your area of expertise is deemed obstructionist and "not research"--if the people with the expertise can't bring that expertise to bear in putting a critical eye on new technologies--how can you ever expect the industry to become more responsible and ethically mature?

Criticism is a form of scholarship, and a vitally important one.
I don't buy this argument at all. At the end of the day, consultant backed or not, you're responsible for the implementation. If it fails it's not on the consultants. They're long gone. And someone needs to carry the blame.
Well, as an Indian let me tell you this. We don't want a propaganda piece. I am not even a huge Modi fan, but he has been investigated by various courts including the Supreme Court of India and has not been found guilty. Will BBC make a documentary about the many crimes the British did in India? With the current geo political situation, the western nations sure want to taint his image, and even destabilize India if they can.
There's a stereotype of vegans being annoying because they will randomly start telling you about their lifestyle and the reasons behind it. Lately it seems like the trend has reversed though and every discussion of physical/mental health has someone popping up insisting that everyone should eat more meat and avoid "seed oils"/gluten/sugar/HFCS/etc.
Fair enough lol, lost in the medium of text I think. "Fuck" is funnily enough one of if not the most adaptive english words.
Also, they may need additional voluntary attrition and this is one way to increase it.
What is the specific complaint against it? Better yet can you come up with tools that you use instead of Teams? Is it xoom? Slack? Discord? MS is not my favorite company but my MS Teams experience has been relatively smooth.
Meet does not require a desktop client to work reliably (it does, however, require a Chromium browser).

Zoom really tries to bury the browser link. First it says the meeting has launched, which it won't have if you don't have the client installed, then it tries to prompt you to download the desktop client, and only then does it reveal the web join link.

Our security team has banned the installation of Zoom after some of their issues in 2020.
Employees often like Hybrid it because it's obviously nice to be able to not show up and still do your work when you have stuff to do at home. But its really bad for a business to have everyone working in different ways.

With people not reliably in the office it talks away most of the advantages an office can give you. I.E. Meetings with half the people calling into a conference are just bad. People talk about things in hallways and the remote folks are left out and not slacked/emailed about it.
> you need to stop exposing them to the chaotic, violent, and frankly depressing adult world

After going through your list, I wonder if you include yourself in the depressing adult world you describe. Or reflect on how your own world views might be an issue too.
Yes you can store a session cookie without a pop-up, as long as it's essential. For example, a login cookie is fine.

Even if you were adding a tracking advertising cookie, someone would have to complain, your national data agency would have to care enough to investigate, and then all they'd do is ask you to rectify it (no fine, as you're too small fry). If you didn't rectify it, that's when things would start to get into litigious/fine territory.

Strictly speaking I think you should have some mention of your session cookie on a privacy page explaining its usage for GDPR, but you don't need a consent pop-up because it's not a tracking cookie you share with third parties. But it's been a while since I dealt with GDPR and can't remember the exact requirement now.

But again no-ones going to care enough to make you until you start making money.

If your business is a UK corporation, and you're storing PII that's not just for accounts, billing, etc. you would need to register with the ICO and pay £40 per year. It's probably similar for other EU countries.

The ICO are currently spamming every business in the UK with threatening letters claiming everyone owes them £40 per year because they're massively underfunded and that's the only way they can make money, basically quadrupling the cost of running a business in the UK (used to be a tiny £15 to companies house per year, now £55 with the ICO fee).
What do you mean not quite? There are much more options than with GitLab, and a lot of people are self-hosting it actually.
Two paragraphs, no elevator pitch. Hope your app provides better UX.
Is there a way to see what other people are reading and if I could join/collaborate with them?
Modern psychiatry entirely ignores mechanism. All diagnoses are sets of symptoms, and treatments are drugs that reduce specific symptoms. It isn’t surprising that in many cases the causes would be obvious, but there isn’t any type of system for even trying to approach mental health that way.

Another problem is the feedback loop of mental illness. A lot of people might feel better if they got exercise, ate healthy, got enough sleep, made some friends, took on some fun hobbies, etc. but most people aren’t willing or able to do any of that if they are stuck in a bad mental state.
Worth noting that the report isn't just on teenage girls however that part is what particularly stands out from the report.
> just a community college

Community colleges are the best deal in higher education, and often have faculty who are interested in teaching rather than research.

The "work from home" part of WFH isn't the most important thing. Its actually a downside - I would love to have a nice office to go into a few times a week where I could chat to coworkers.

The real benefit is that your market for possible jobs expands nationally or even globally. For my current job, there simply isn't a job like it in my home town, and if it wasn't for WFH, I would have to move to California. I think there is something to be said for including folks from other locations into the cutting edge of tech.
i was taken aback when i saw flowdock is owned by broadcom. seems a weird space in which to find a broadcom offering.

It is actually fairly easy:

1- you don't need a cookie banner if all you use are functional cookies (session, cart, etc..) or security cookies (Example: CloudFlare sets one if i remember correctly)

2- allow users to delete or export their data upon request

3- if you really need an external service for ads/analytics etc.. don't allow them to use persistent tracking unless the users consent, this is handled automatically with stuff like OneTrust
The study you linked to about conservative women seems to totally ignore the fact that there are confounding factors. To pick just one, conservatives are about half as likely to make under $30k/year compared to liberals:https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/religious-landscape-stu...

Additionally, lots of things have been happening in the last 30 years. The erosion of reproductive rights has been a slow process happening since right after Roe. Income inequality has been rising. Etc.
I've been using MMO-style mice to do similar things for a while.

Logitech's G-whatever software is kind of annoying, but one thing I _do_ like about it is it'll flash the configurations directly onto the mouse. This avoids needing to do any special config in the OS.

I use their tool on Windows to just flash the mouse once, then I can use it on any machine and all my custom key-binds and macros "just work".
Nitpick: lsp-mode is not “Emacs's LSP client”. Emacs recently chose to include “eglot-mode” as part of Emacs itself, and eglot-mode must therefore be considered to be Emacs’ official LSP client, not “lsp-mode”.
Charlie Munger: "I've never seen a management consultant’s report in my long life that didn’t end with 'What this situation really needs is more management consulting.'”
I wouldn't be surprised it being biased towards the left in general non-specific quasi-political queries, given that left-leaning people seem to generate more written rhetorics on the vast plains of internet. But I don't suppose the examples in the first link have much to do with this: these are just opinionated guard-rails hastily drafted by PR people.
Pretty deep in the nitpicky weeds here but I don't like putting mut bindings in parameters. They only affect the body of the function but they show up in the interface, including rustdoc, which can be confusing. It's easy to think that

fn foo(x: u32) {}
fn foo(mut x: u32) {}

has a semantic difference to the consumer similar to

fn foo(x: &u32) {}
fn foo(x: &mut u32) {}

but it does not. To avoid this confusion I'd rather do

fn foo(x: u32) { let mut x = x; }
I went a different direction recently, i ditched the mouse and instead bought a lower-end Huion graphical tablet. I do pretty much everything with the keyboard, but while thinking about things i much prefer sketching ideas and taking notes by hand over e.g diagrams as code.

It has only been a couple weeks and im still getting used to using a digital pen and what combination of software to use, but pretty happy so far with the experience.

Yes, privacy is an ideological problem.

The fact that the HN crowd now believes it's okay to collect data without others' consent makes me wonder how cooked the frog really is nowdays.

shady because of accusations?
What time does school start in the USA? I assumed it would be the same as here but apparently not, never heard of a school formal lesson starting before 8:30 here and 9am start is the norm for all school and always(?) has been.

Separate to that how cynical should we be about these psychology studies? As a science it seems hell bent on demonstrating that it is closer to poetry or religion which means we should start with an extremely sceptical prior before closely examining evidence /especially/ when it is telling us something to which we're sympathetic. Stats is hard, sure. Get it wrong by all means, repeatedly wrong even. There is no excuse for not owning that and correcting it rather than doubling down when that comes out if you're claiming to be a science. None. No excuse for not clearly identifying it every time it happens and publicly noting it. [1] No excuse that every first year, university level psych textbook seems to contain the completely discredited [2] "Stanford Prison Experiment" as though it was anything other than gross scientific fraud. It is still being taught to first year as though it were science. How? Seriously. Is everyone in psychology a fraud? Surely not.

You should hope that a software business would scale non-linearly with employees.
They told us:

- Roswell was a weather balloon

- The yeti was a weather balloon

- The lockness monster was a weather balloon

I don't know why they're building the suspense up. We all all know they will after all said and done, say it was a weather balloon.

Like a crappy clickbait article on the internet, I'm expecting a big nothing-burger.

Ideal support at home in some cases. Being allowed to rest and sleep as needed, good food around, transportation to help minimize commute times, etc. Having this makes it much easier to meet the demands.

Not in all cases. But there are absolutely logistical advantages some kids have and others don’t, and some kids suffer significantly for that disadvantage.

Always exceptions to rules of course. And humans can still do impressive things under duress. Maybe the question is not how do they manage, but how much better could they manage under more ideal schedules, and how many more kids would do better as well?
Citogenesis doesn't even need 51%, so that would be a considerable upgrade.

I said most things. "Privacy preserving, minimally invasive telemetry" and "literal fascism" are obviously not comparable and it's disingenuous to try and equivocate them.
ChatGPT as a system involves an unreliable LLM chatbot and a series of corrections efficient enough to give the impression of reliability for many fields and these together feel like the future - enough to get a "code red" from Google.

It's worth remembering that back in the day, Google succeed not by exact indexing but by having the highest quality results for each term - and they used existing resources as well as human workers to get these (along with pagerank).

What you have is a hybrid system and one whose filter is continuously updated. But it's a very complicated machine and going from something seemingly working to something satisfying the multitude of purposes modern search satisfies is going to be huge and hugely expensive project.

We've actually been using Buff as a chat bot on our Discord server to iteratively explore vulnerability data (CVEs) using AI.

For example:

> @Buff What is Log4Shell?

>> Log4Shell is a vulnerability named by LunaSec. It affects users of the log4j packages, primarily in Java but also in Scala, Groovy, and Clojure. "Log4Shell Guide: How To Detect and Mitigate the Log4Shell Vulnerability (CVE-2021-44228 & CVE-2021-45046)" is available on LunaTrace.

>> SOURCES: https://www.lunasec.io/docs/blog/log4j-zero-day-mitigation-g...

The idea is that we can ingest unstructured data from GitHub Security Advisories (and the links they link to, like that LunaSec blog post) and then "query" that dataset with natural language.

If you'd like to play around with it yourself, feel free to join and try it out in our Discord. https://discord.gg/dtGHzZK6Cq

(It only has a few vulns of data in it right now and we're scraping the data to train it right now. Any ideas that others have to share would be awesome!)
In my opinion (and experience) this is not a one-way causality, but instead a vicious cycle.
India is okay. We have better democracy than both UK and USA.
Plenty of families that don't need two incomes have two working parents; parents work because work is fulfilling.

Gov. Abbott's Office Says Using Diversity Initiatives When Hiring Is Illegal
I agree. My guidance counselor had 2 3-ring binders FULL of schools that fit some criteria I had, but were also aligned to my disabilities. My mom and I spent ~2 hours with the counselor looking through the schools and applying. It was pretty boring. They also arranged for schools to come and talk to us about them. That was rad because we got to skip class
Most of them are really bad at their jobs, but the pay kinda sucks, so that's not likely to improve. And with all the glamour of telling burn-outs that they're not getting into Harvard all day long, and the low pay, you also get to be point person when a kid offs themselves or dies in a car wreck. Fun!

You get what you pay for, and the pay's low. Also, the job sucks. That's a recipe for terrible service.

[EDIT] Incidentally, you want consistently-great counselors, as far as the college planning side goes? Elite prep schools. Half of what you're paying for is an expert with insider knowledge & contacts to ensure your kid gets into the best possible school they can. They treat the position—at least as far as that side of it goes—very seriously, when hiring.
Right, "this thread is not productive, we will deliberate in private and come back with a revised proposal" is the vibe I get, which is probably the most constructive approach possible in a case like this.
I was never diagnosed with ADD, but I had a long commute to school (2+ hours each way - I was closest to the bus barn, so first on in morning, last off at night). So I was on the bus at 5:15am, and not getting home until 5:45-6:30pm, just in time to eat dinner and go to bed so that I could wake up at 4:30am to get my shower, and walk a half mile to the bus stop.

The fact that they would pull that shit on 13 year old kids, then tell them they are dumb and fail them is ridiculous. Thankfully I had a few teachers that would stand up for me, but most of them though I was a lazy burn-out and would never amount to anything, and almost no teacher had empathy for me. I should be doing my school work on the bumpy bus that spent more than half its time on rural dirt roads.

When I got my first real job, I was glad to realize how wrong they all were. But it shattered my confidence.
> It's just that teen boys tend to have much lower reported rates of mental health issues or self harm.

Boys quickly realized nobody gives a shit.
> That’s why open ai chat gpt says it was trained on data from like 2021

I assume it's not due to indexing, but rather due to all the hard manual labour required to markup the training data.
The absolutely worst is hybrid with no fixed schedule, which is my current situation. We have quotas, and they don't take into account sick leaves or holidays.

I have to pray I won't have to go to the office on my gym days.

Hilarious, given the original thread.

School already starts far too early.
I never said whatabout anything lol. You were the one trying to downplay what happened in iraq just because the US graciously didn't annex it (which is not saying a lot when you destroy the country so completely that you guarantee it won't ever be a threat anymore). That's a completely arbitrary goalpost, that conveniently stops right at what your own side didn't do. It's exactly the equivalent of russian apologists arguing that "yeah we invaded a country, but at least it was to defend our direct borders and it wasn't invading and destroying a country on the other side of the world". How convenient.

I get that crying about whataboutism is the trendy way to deflect and be openly hypocritical. But at least do it when it makes sense, not when you get called out for downplaying warcrimes.

I think your value system is even more broken when you dismiss and downplay an entire region being destabilized for generations, a million lives lost and countless more ruined because your side did it "with good intentions", or because gasp someone said a hecking whataboutism.
