i realize it's slightly more than 10 years ago, but c'mon, "ma ma ma ma poker face, pa pa pa poker face" is not enduring?

seriously though, if you think a healthy music industry is a valuable thing for a culture, it's actually better if old stuff does not endure because it creates openings for new, young, living artists. There is great boredom in the world of classical music at the constant repetition of Bach, Beethoven and Mozart. They've been decomposing for many multiples of the years they were composing.

(side note: I'm not saying there's no sexism in Hollywood, but a similar case can be made for one aspect of their sexist practices: pushing older actresses aside creates more roles for a greater number of new actresses, more women get employed overall (weighted by the number of male vs female roles overall). Up and coming male actors get stifled by the dominance of already existing stars.)

What if you actually asked the students what they think the best approach is? I wonder what they'd have to say when confronted with optimizing their own education.

As a CS grad I often felt such a large percentage of the syllabus was legacy theory I'd (mostly correctly) never need. Perhaps this can be the positive impetus to get teachers to really rethink syllabuses from a more practical, useful view point.

Link a unit file that is not in the unit file search path into the unit

The effect of this may be undone with disable. The effect of this command
is that a unit file is made available for commands such as start, even
though it is not installed directly in the unit search path. The file

systemd is started (e.g. anything underneath /home/ or /var/ is not
allowed, unless those directories are located on the root file system).

It's interesting: the modern web packages up web design so that every facebook, Wikipedia or Instragram feed looks the same. The design is done for you.

The geocities approach was that everyone creates their own site design with an editor, which was actually pretty good and effective. There were many website where you could create your own website, such as maxpages and xpages.

They would let you create pages on your site and link to other pages. There was a lot of funky pages out there.

Maybe people decided they don't want to do design anymore?

Add to that, there were some weird inconsistencies because for a long time there were both GTK2 and GTK3 programs running at the same time and they didn't look quite normal.

I think that is the big issue with environments that allow for endless customization. People look for perfection, and when you have too much free time it's tempting.

> is about how you need to lie in tech interviews.

Doing recruiting rounds as a candidate in the early 00's taught me that you have to lie in interviews. All the questions were "give an example of a time when ... " - everyone displayed leadership when they were captain of the national championship winning football team, and overcame adversity when they climbed the three mountains taller than everest in the same day. At the end of the day ... it worked.

Much like social media etc today - real life cant compete with the fantasy of the 100x coder who added $50mil of sales to the bottom line of their last employer.

You should also consider lying to your doctor when they ask how much you drink / smoke / exercise. They will just assume that you are so 2x whatever you say for drinking and 1/10th the amount of exercise you self report - because everybody lies.

Can second this: I've seen companies that wanted the benefits of containers but didn't need orchestration yet do just fine with Docker Compose in prod.

Of course, when orchestration became a necessity, almost everyone looked in the direction of Kubernetes, as opposed to something like Nomad or Swarm, probably due to its popularity.
Also I would go to venture to that what GPT produces passes the initial scan. That is mostly spelled and grammatically correct. I think those sort of submissions are common enough previously, but relatively fast to reject with "needs edit".

On other hand GPT might technically be good enough. But there isn't any actual substance. The reason why we read literature. This is varying bar, but still it does exist.

> Wow, I didn't even know that you can be immune to HIV.

HIV contains some code which use to convert a cell to be a zombie (afaik that cell's vulnerable place in cell's DNA is called CD4). But some people has that part of cell's DNA slightly different, not better not worse but different, therefore not vulnerable to that special code. The HIV for different cells is yet to be discovered.

When we will have understanding of how to change the DNA code (implementing is really easy tbh), than any malintentioned person might develop new viruses shaping some known ones to be even more destructive.
It's really frustrating when intensive meditation is sold as always positive. Like you can't get injured, and even if you do you did something wrong.

I have been meditating 20 years, and I have gone trough intensive retreats, so I share.

If you read Buddhist sutras, you find out that Buddha experienced similar and worse while meditating. Going into horrible states of mind at some point is what almost everybody goes trough if they meditate intensively at some point. That's not Buddhism going bad that's what Buddhism has been for 2000 years. If you stay in monasteries long enough, you see monks recovering from bad experience, even some rare cases who are permanently broken somehow. That's rare but it happens.

If your image of intensive meditation is "maintaining constant calm", or that "middle path" means no storms just the calm, you are mistaken. Human's don't naturally pay attention into their inner workings as much as they do in intensive meditation, something will happen. That's why you are doing it.

Living normal hectic life and doing intensive meditation retreats can be a problem. If you live in a monastery or similar place where you meditate 3-4 hours daily, attending intensive retreats is more balanced experience. Taking one year sabbatical and doing nothing but meditation was important step for me.

> - Iyengar is not of Sanskrit origin. On the other hand the unambiguously Dalit surname Chamar is.

You are cherry-picking examples from my list to prove a point.

Furthermore, the etymology of 'Iyengar' is contested, and possibly cognate to the Sanskrit 'ārya'.

Perhaps I should clarify: there are always exceptions to the rule. However, I resolutely assert that Sanskrit-derived first and last names are markers of upper-caste ancestry. Yes, there are people of lower-caste with Sanskrit-derived names, and there are people with Dravidian/tribal names from so-called higher castes. That said, the latter is a highly unlikely combination.

I find it really hard to believe that you would run into rough edge cases with most platforms. If you have a small app a lot of platforms do deploys directly from GitHub repos. If you have a more complex app cloud platforms support things like managed Kubernetes and such.

What does something "outside the intended use case" even look like for a deployment and hosting platform?

If you're only using them for hosting and deployment there isn't really any lock-in either. That only occurs if you're using their other cloud services, and even then there are many platforms with similar services.
>, build quality, screen quality, weight, battery life, single core & parallel processing, speakers, trackpad - everything

Strangely mac fanboys always make sure to carefully avoid the subject of their crappy keyboard.

It is worth using a lenovo over a Mac for the keyboard only. Who cares about a trackpad one barely use on a decent desktop. Mac users overly rely on a good trackpad because their desktop is terribly user-unfriendly. I spend all my time on the keyboard, not the trackpad.
> "Folk" I think also carries the connotation of traditional instrumentation and musical style, whereas pop is allowed to evolve. I'm not sure whether there's an umbrella term for music in modern musical style with accessible modern instrumentation.

Firstly, it's not just a totally neutral act to hatch a plan to juice the numbers to a ridiculous extent and try and dump it onto public markets before it explodes. That's literally an attempt to scam you out of your pension fund.

Secondly, you know that phrase "don't break the law while breaking the law", Adam wasn't just building this massive ponzi, he was self-dealing left and right, buying artificial surf beaches, selling his own trade mark back to himself, getting wework to rent offices that he owned, getting Softbanks other entities to rent huge amounts of Wework space to massively juice the numbers in Japan.

The only reason WeWork was kind of acceptable is because he was mainly burning Saudi billionaire money, but make no mistake, the entire plan was that he'd become a billionaire whilst everyone else's pensions would take the hit, and even having failed he walks away a billionaire.

As I understand it the reasons for potassium bromate being legal in the US are more to do with the idiosyncratic way the FDA treated things already in common use when it became responsible for regulating food carcinogens. So even a freewheeling Brexit means Brexit UK regulator is unlikely to approve this _today_; if potassium bromate were a novel ingredient today the FDA probably wouldn’t approve it either.

The vast majority of Hacker News comments don't generate interesting insight, either, and most conversations are banal and repetitive anyway. And that's not just here, it's everywhere - Sturgeon's Law prevails over everything.

But if ChatGPT can be trained to remain civil and avoid prejudice and conspiracy theory, the quality of Hacker News would objectively improve even if everything ChatGPT says is qualitative nonsense. And it won't be, and as software improves, it will be less and less so. You can't say that about people, unfortunately. The quality of people tends to degrade over time, the more people the more degradation. That's how you get Eternal September. ChatGPT, however, can maintain a high degree of quality over time, unimpeded by irrationality or emotion.

Maybe we could split the difference and have all comments filtered through ChatGPT. Run sentiment analysis to catch and remove or edit low quality comments where feasible.

> This is also a case where consumers say they want one thing, but their behavior is a different matter. For example, pretty much everyone says they prefer the full price to be shown up front in search result pages. But, as someone who is privy to a ton of A/B testing in this area, the opposite nearly always results in higher conversion, where there is a lower up-front price and fees are only tacked on during checkout.

I'll restate what at least one other commenter pointed out. If I, a consumer, say "I want transparent pricing," and then given transparent pricing I'm less likely to buy your product, that doesn't mean I was mistaken. It means the truth is that I don't want to buy your product, and you would have to lie to me in order to make a purchase more likely.
