What a career – who didn't he produce for? Diana Ross, David Bowie, Duran Duran, Mick Jagger, INXS, Madonna, Grace Jones, Cindi Lauper, Sheena Easton the list goes on and on . . . Al Jarreau (L is for Lover – I forgot I listened to my brother's copy of this record) . . .

"In February 2012, Rodgers announced that he was collaborating with electronic band Daft Punk for their latest album, "teasing out their R&B influences". The record, Random Access Memories was released in 2013. Rodgers co-wrote and played guitar on three tracks: "Give Life Back to Music", "Lose Yourself to Dance", and "Get Lucky"."

I don’t understand why you would do a redesign (and in the past a rename) that takes all the visual distinctiveness of the brand and just chucks it in the bin. The whole thing feels like a ripoff of cash app’s vibe, the typography comes across as very unserious, and whilst I appreciate that colourblindness is a good thing to design against, that feels like an excuse to justify throwing the baby out with the bath water. I loved the old spinner for instance. Now it feels like a video game loading page.

The conversation should go: “wow that’s amazing” “yeah it’s also way more accessible”

Rather than:
“That looks like shit”
“The reason it looks like shit is accessibility”

It gives accessible design a bad rep.

Edit: I say this as a regular user of wise. I recommend it to other businesses I work with and it gave the impression of a serious professional brand. I wouldn’t feel nearly as comfortable anymore because the branding is much more casual and feels like it’s aimed at consumers & lifestyle biz far more than businesses that want to pay an international invoice.
More like justifying its job by creating unnecessary busywork. Accessibility concerns can be addressed without reworking the entire design and adding even more whitespace and stupid fonts/graphics.
Why would a hypothetical attacker wander through the garden anyway, instead of walking the normal path to the front door like a normal person? That face recognition will surely blow up the first pizza delivery person that has the misfortune of delivering to your house. I hope you tip well.
Meanwhile, much of the Nix world is using the composable and standardized system of Flakes so they can easily share their derivations. Flakes are behind a flag, but are a part of `nix` and all of these other tools are adding dependencies and complexity to your system. The Nix Flake shells also start up much quicker. It's really worth a look because it can simplify your setup and make it easier for others to read your Nix code and not run into something unexpected or nonstandard.
Ok, so on the one hand I love the amount of features and innovations Microsoft keeps bringing to Windows and the likes of Bing Search, but on the other hand Windows and Edge are now just adware.

Just look at the screenshot picture in the article. One third of Edge's windows is just ads for games.

Remember the days of IE 6-7 when you'd get them infested with toolbars and adware as every Windows app you'd install would try to sneak those in during the installation process if you weren't careful to untick the right boxes? I guess someone at Microsoft though "hey, what if now we were the ones pushing the adware to our customers and monetizing their data?".
The entire of Google is dying. Starting with search, the moment you turn off your adblocker you will see why. It's literally a complete crapfest of badly moderated advertising and ranking manipulation. Then there's the default Android experience which literally shovels garbage down you with the Google app and via a version of Chrome with no ad blocking capability. The www is unusable unless you install another browser. Then all their immature web based apps propositions which people are finally tiring of due to the bugginess and being almost completely unusable if you're offline. Then the invasive tracking and privacy issues. You can tell how bad it's getting because nearly all my searches suggest autocomple with "reddit" on the end because people are more likely to get human generated results. And of course the ramped up YT advertising recently.

It's a classic death spiral.

They don't have a product other than crap search and invasive data collection.

Annualized inflation in last quarter was just 3.1% and Core was 4.6%. The peak in Q2 was 10.5% and 6.6%. So looking just at the YoY figure is problematic cause it’s a strongly lagging indicator. Of course it depends if the current trend continues. It starting going back up in January so it might not (then again certain components in CPI like housing generally tend to lag more than others).
They need to be contrived bugs. Unpaid work is illegal in the US, and most other 'civilized' counries. Plus you don't want your competitors to send someone to interview just to look at your code.

Google used to support this[0], and I used it happily for blocking low-quality domains such as Experts Exchange, certain Wikia subdomains, and Pintrest. The feature was later removed[1] in favor of a browser extension, but the extension was less functional because it could only filter out results from the current page, so heavily-spammed keywords had result pages with only one or two links.

Nowadays, with the results being entirely spam for multiple pages, I think a return of the server-side filtering would be necessary if it's to be at all useful. Otherwise you'll get page after page of blank SERPs.

> Some time ago I also thought MBTI was bullshit, now I think it’s quite useful. And at least for me, anecdotally, has predictive power.

Replace MBTI w/ astrology in this sentence.

And just like astrology, you want MBTI to be true so it influences your answers on the questionnaire. Kinda like a Ouija board.
Europa is enticing because life would exist under a few km of ice, more than enough to prevent radiation from causing too much problems.

The hydrothermal vents, where the main sources of energy are hypothesized to be, would be deep enough.

Apple forums are also quite bad. Every suggestion is to reset SMC and thats it.

The Stack overflow / stack exchange websites are often the only ones where you get useful answers when having any sort of problems regarding the user facing part of the OS.

(And also for anything else to be honest. I think 30% of my questions on google are answered by stack exchange websites)
They banned a large Covid sub r/NoNewNormal where the bulk of the content would be accepted as common sense today.

Themes in that sub were that “the cure is worse than the disease” (it was) and that “we shouldn’t throw away our way of life for Covid” (we chose not to in hindsight).

If you are a member of subs like r/lockdownskepticism even today then you frequently get banned from other subs.
What language do you think South Asian diaspora communicate in?

The internet/computers were never designed for Farsi. And the situation was way worse for phones before smartphones. It’s only recently that efforts have been made to make it possible to communicate via Farsi, Arabic, or South Asian languages. But it’s still extremely hard.

Russia has a significant Russian only computer development program, so communicating over devices via Russian is more common. East Asian languages have spent a lot more time/energy finding ways to communicate via their own languages, and even there, the most popular text communication language is one which uses English characters. Also, English is spoken far less than in a country like Iran, which has a highly educated populace, that until very recently was very integrated with the English speaking world.

Communicating in English is absolutely obvious for such a diaspora.
I think it's a good idea to actively take notice. Doing so made me more precise on every two-wheeled vehicle.

But I don't want to "consume content", I want to "get information". Most "content creators" don't provide any info. Or at best there is some info there but you have to watch an hour worth of video for the 20 useful seconds.

Genuinely curious, but which part was informative of anything other than one users opinion? I'm a huge fan of elixir and found it to be one of the easiest languages[1] I've learned to date, so I'm definitely biased, but I'm struggling to find anything in GP's post that is informative in an objective way (outside of the tutorial thing that presumably posts more content).

I believe I could replace php/laravel with elixir/phoenix in GP's post and be subjectively just as correct in stating my opinion.

Nailed it. Microsoft forced me to Google through bugs. Google forced me to Apple through advertising and privacy violations. Microsoft and Google are now doing very well at keeping me in Apple's ecosystem.

I periodically use an android device or sample windows just to see if it got any better and, no, it's a veritable shit show. They had good, mature products and screwed them up by selling out as adware companies.
40k HN comments mentioning books, extracted using deep learning
Ocaml seems somewhat hampered by this weird disconnect between upstream maintainers and Jane Street and other third party major users. Popular media for ocaml learners describes using Base, while documentation focuses on the builtins, which clearly aren’t used that often in practice.

Do I have this wrong? Why doesn’t Ocaml just merge Base (with permission) and put their best foot forward for the ecosystem?
You misunderstand, if you penalize excessive advertising then the revenue generated per page view decreases. This will reduce but not eliminate the amount of effort spent on these projects resulting in fewer such webpages.

So ‘How to unclog a toilet’ is always going to get SEO optimized spam. However, most topics don’t get that many views making them less viable for this business model.
Right, the average American lives in a home for something like 7 years and probably decides to move because of things unrelated to interest rates (life events, mood).

Search your recipes on YouTube. It is a better way of getting the information and higher quality.

What a beautiful device! If I had one I would struggle between wanting to preserve it untouched and repurposing it with mechanical and electronics implants as a display to see where a given space object is; imagine watching it track the ISS in real time.
Preserving it would probably win, but now I'll hardly resist the temptation to buy the first globe I see at the next pawn shop...

A carefully crafted title to kill google search…
Do you integrate your bank accounts/etc via API or do you pull the data into the sheet manually on some periodic basis? Second question - are you using your own categories or do you rely on bank/card?

Asking as I’m sort of in the middle of the two. I keep a mostly complete spreadsheet of my expenses but that doesn’t account for things that I purchase regularly like groceries/Amazon/etc. Trying Copilot for a year right now as well.
"And NB, python also doesn't offer many of these features, such as dependency management and simple single-binary builds"

Python has tools for both of these - including virtualenv in standard Python. Nuitka if you want native compilation to a single binary. Julia has none.
To add to your comment:

I also think that these rewrites are throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Especially in projects related to code quality and analysis, things like widespread adoption and issues going back almost a decade are much more important than raw performance.

For every aspect of functionality, there is a heavy baggage of quirks, bugs, edge cases etc. I am not convinced that a rewrite of a tool that is still in development and still limited to a subset of functionality is able to capture nearly a decade of community work.
I can't find anything related to what is happening to my dad on Google except a bunch of vax deniers. Added reddit and found many other people with ALS after vaccine. He's on a bypap now and will be dead in a few weeks.
There's more than enough posted to /g/ I wouldn't want on a work PC. At this very moment there's a bikini model, a spread-legged underage anime catgirl, a Terry Davis thread, some furry art, more anime girls, more anime girls, an upskirt shot of a loli, some AI art titties, and the ever-tasteful "chink shit general".

This is not appropriate to look at at work.

I've heard that if you swim into a nuclear reactor spent fuel containment pool, you will actually measure the least radiation somewhere in the middle of the pool, thanks to shielding from the universe.
It depends. I'd have to see the total cost of each mortgage. And for the higher rate scenario I might factor in an eventual refinance at a lower rate.

Purchase price is not the price you're paying. That's a myth. The aggregation of the payments you're paying to take ownership of the home from your bank over (usually) 30 years is actual price.
The test-retest reliability of the test is bad, meaning that people who retest very often get different scores.

I think this is a very good indicator that the whole thing is bogus.
It's pretty inconvenient and ends up in the data, rather than being external to it.

Ever since I started to work with Shopify clients, I realized they all have problems with their Shopify Google Analytics integration.

They either didn’t know how to set up Google Analytics on Shopify completely or they had discrepancies with their data. Their data simply wouldn’t match, or it wasn’t reliable.

It all comes down to setup methods and mistakes during the setup process on Shopify Admin and Google Analytics.

In this post, I will show you how to set up Google Analytics on your Shopify store and start tracking important metrics like traffic, conversions, and sales. There are a couple of alternative options for setup, and I’ll touch base with each of them so you can make your own choice.

After setting it correctly, you can make data-driven decisions to grow your business and provide a better experience for your customers. Let's get started!

packages = [ ocamlPackages.janeStreet.async ];
}

$ devenv shell

No, I am not google translating. I was just doing that as a "reverse test" to see what the translators had actually written. We are using translators who are proficient in the domain and speak 2 languages at least (English plus the target language). But they are still "external" to the team. They have some domain knowledge, but they don't have the true conceptual knowledge about what things are called in the program. Translators inside the development team (for the couple of languages covered by the developers) don't make the mistake of picking an incorrect synonym. The external translators might, despite good domain knowledge. The problem with it is: We don't notice. Because we don't speak the language!

E.g. if you make an architectural program, you might call things "floor", "level", or "storey". In an editor you might have "object", "entity" and so on) and all of these might exist and mean different things in the program. Language wise they may well be synonymous, but in the "domain language" of the program they might be very different.

You're right. I thought you were referring to a civilization like our contemporary one, with the technologies and productive potential available to it. The scenario you describe, of a Bronze Age civilization being wiped out in one of the mass extinction events that life on Earth faced, is plausible.

I'd add however that it didn't take long at all on a geological timescale for our civilization to go from its inception, with the invention of agriculture, to having advanced industrial technologies, and I assume the same would apply to other civilizations. So the probability of a civilization having emerged but having faced a cataclysm in the short span of time it would have taken for it to achieve the level of sophistication of our civilization is quite slim.
Google translate was only used by me to try to check what the professional translators had done, and see whether the phrasing is what I expect.
Not sure this point applies to software, but I find a doctor saying oops to be very comforting. If I know when he screws up I don't have to be suspicious of him the rest of the time.

Free energy is not testable
Friston himself says that because it is a principle and not a theory, free energy cannot be falsified: “It cannot be disproven. In fact, there’s not much you can do with it, unless you ask whether measurable systems conform to the principle.” He even suggests that his principle might be a “nihilistic tautology”. Ref: Friston, K., Fortier, M. & Friedman, D. A. (2018). Of woodlice and men: A Bayesian account of cognition, life and consciousness. An interview with Karl Friston. ALIUS Bulletin, 2, 17-43.
The ban is also meaningless. E.g. government ban Ponzi schemes, while themselves running pension schemes very much having most of the attributes of a Ponzi scheme.

Which means if government bans apps designed for social scoring, it's probably just so that government has monopoly over scoring people behaviour.
And it's a bit of security through obscurity. There is a value to to that but for something that's not storing sensitive data then who cares.
There are a lot unchecked boxes in that list. But I'm looking forward to the progress of this project.
Is it actually wrong though? Will the rules of 'summer' be in it's training data anywhere? AFAICT they aren't described on the google play page, although you can easily figure them out by the screenshots.
At least if there's an error code, I can search for that specific error code and see if anybody else has run into it. Seeing "Error 3bad617a" means that somebody else may have copy-pasted that same error message, and it might show up in search for "$PROGRAM_NAME 3bad617a". This is best if every location that can give an error has a unique code, but can be useful even if it is just parroting some low-level code.

In other cases, an error code may be a standard value, and indicate that something is wrong with the inputs I provided as a user. If I see "Error saving file: 13", I may guess that the "13" was returned by some system call and is the error code EACCES or "Permission denied". I could test this by saving the file in another directory. The specific error code is useful for knowing what to do next, as error code 28 would be ENOSPC or "No space left on device", and I'd instead check if I ran out of disk space. (It would have been better if the error number had been passed through strerror() before display, but having the numeric code is still better than nothing.)

I just read [1] that George Washington was like that. Not only was he a slow thinker, he was practically uneducated by the standards of the other Founding Fathers, indeed he didn't even go to college. He couldn't speak any language other than English, and it appears he couldn't read Latin. He never traveled to Europe.

Despite all these, George Washington was considered by his contemporaries as an "American Cato", which at the time was the highest form of praise.

And of course, the US wouldn't exist without Washington, who is the ultimate example of a general who could get a lot done with only a little.

Recipes are a pain in general, even without google, doubly so for baking.

Baking is a science, not art... so recipes calling for a cup of flour and two teaspoons of butter are useless to me, while recipes with ingredients in grams are useless to many american grandmas.

On the other hand, a pinterest page with a photo and a large overlay asking me to register is useless to both of us.
