Well, searching for a movie you want to watch often comes up empty on netflix unfortunately. For those use cases, there's a big difference. For just watching what's provided, netflix has a better experience.
Balkanization of corporations is a good thing.

It enables more competitions to fill in the void and hopefully cheaper prices.

But an outright ban is worse for the economy as less competition means higher prices.

> How did he manage to do that considering how cruel solitary confinement in prisons are?

This is addressed in the article:

> Young was relieved. He had come to a gradual realization that he hadn’t given enough weight to the fact that Alati was there by choice. “So if you’re in solitary confinement in prison, that’s a scary situation. You don’t know if you’re going to get out ever,” he said. “Here, if he lasts, he gets 100k, but these guys in solitary confinement get nothing – they have to do that.”

> Kupers says that distinction – “remembering why he is there, that it is not permanent” – is crucial. “Prisoners in solitary confinement tell me they are afraid they will never be released and they will die in solitary.”

> Alati, after his own taste of isolation, agrees. “[Prisoners in solitary] are not given a bathtub with sugar scrubs, and essential oil and food, and a yoga mat. They’re not given that stuff, so if I didn’t have that stuff, and I wasn’t actually free and I wasn’t being paid, that’s why [it would be a] punishment.”

> And won’t such a prolonged time in darkness affect your eyes?

This is also addressed in the article:

> Alati was ready to leave the bathroom. He put on eclipse sunglasses, which blocked out any light, to protect his eyes. When he finally emerged, the noise and commotion was overwhelming.
Well no, that would be spying on non-vegans specifically because they’re non-vegan (in the equivalent scenario where they were tracking usage of an app that only offered non-vegan options).

Also, wouldn't that be an extremely weird and creepy thing for The Vegan Society to do? I’m surprised you’d offer this analogy as a defense of the behavior in question.

Really? Cool! This was still pretty much unresolved in 2003 when I worked in the area and I had been told people were still arguing about this recently.
The naming of your group is a symptom of the overall problem. No one names their gang the "community outreach response unit" which is what these units should be.

People name their gangs the "Outlaws" or "Vipers" or "Scorpions" etc because they are intending to send a message of fear or strength. It's Gang 101 activity.
Reminds me a little of the fact that "vegetable" is not a botanical term.

People who say "tomatoes are fruits, not vegetables" are guilty of performing an incorrect hypercorrection. Tomatoes are vegetables just as cucumbers, green beans, asparagus, lettuce, fennel and carrots are. "Vegetables" is a culinary and dietary term, not a biological one.
hot dogs and burritos are sandwiches right?
I think so, however in addition it provides customisation points, and uses Ada/Swift like ways of parameter passing.

In many cases I'd agree, but in this case I think it's perfectly fine (and there's no other way) since Apple is just a distributor for other people's recordings.

I think it's pretty clear Apple is making "192 kHz/24-bit Hi-Res Lossless" distribution and listening available, but obviously it's up to labels and artists to supply actual recordings at that level. And many can't, simply because it wasn't mastered at that level, or wasn't even recorded at it.
One question I ask myself. Does the dependency to Google and Bing APIs been advertised before today ? Can't remember reading that and was genuinely thinking everything was baked in-house (yes I was naive.)

PDF: Still Unfit for Human Consumption, 20 Years Later (2020)
Seems like systems design is just studying a potpourri of engineering disciplines and the job entails stringing it all together the best that you can. Is there a formal theory about systems? I don't think so, and if there is, there's definitely no way to quantify if one system is "better" than another.

Since no formal theory about the field exists.. every conjecture is just opinion. So someone working in systems design won't necessarily come up with a better "design" then some other person who doesn't specifically work in the field given that there's a lack of a formal theory to prove it either way. In software these guys who do "designs" are the system architects and I think the ridicule is justified given that anyone can do it.

Category theory is the closest thing I've seen to a fundamental theory of design and I'm positive it's not well known among "systems design" engineers. Honestly it's not even that useful either because the theory doesn't include any measurement to determine if one structure is "better" than another.

Yes, burning wood may be more sustainable in that lens. Whether it is less harmful is orthogonal. Heat pumps are efficient in ways that wood fires cannot be, for example, so oil -> electricity -> heat pump may well be far better for the atmosphere than "burn some wood".
Most people will argue that this is nitpicking, however, I've learned something new today. Thank you.

Quite a difference in code readability to the point where the code becomes self-evident. Few people are able to reach a more verbose level of documentation, let alone make sure the code remains understandeable in the future.

Sorry, I'm saying I agree with you: hetereosexual abuse of children is way more common than homosexual abuse, to the point where marrying children is legal and is almost entirely heterosexual. I'm saying unfortunately this kind of child sexual predation is rarely counted as part of the studies because of how normalized it is.
A an engineer and founder I can say this makes a ton of sense. There are often tons of generic screen very app needs to build that are just not worth the time building custom, I can imagine myself using Second for such screens that are not core to my functionality but essential to complete the product story. Kudos for the work Eric.

Direct2D uses a approach which tesselates paths into triangles on the CPU. It is similar to the JUCE code in that the GPU is used for coverage, but it still does not natively render splines on the GPU.

I’m not convinced. What about all of my ancestors that got paid less than inflation adjusted minimum wage? Who were killed in wars fighting to keep the country free? Lots of people benefit from their work, so do I get a slice of the pie? What about the natives who were earlier displaced by other natives (wars between American Indians). Do we owe their descendants as well? And why does the distinction of before or after the US existed as a nation matter?

Lots of people (black, white, whatever) have been treated unfairly in the past. It’s not possible or reasonable to go down that road. Reparations are too myopic in my view.

Let’s fix educational inequality. We can do that. Fixing multi-generational cultural problems? Not sure, but giving people money is not the answer.

Show HN: PyBroker – Algotrading in Python with Machine Learning
Hello, I am excited to share PyBroker with you, a free and open-source Python framework that I developed for creating algorithmic trading strategies, including those that utilize machine learning. With PyBroker, you can easily develop and fine-tune trading rules, build powerful ML models, and gain valuable insights into your strategy's performance.

Some of the key features of PyBroker include:

- A super-fast backtesting engine built using NumPy and accelerated with Numba.

- The ability to create and execute trading rules and models across multiple instruments with ease.

- Access to historical data from Alpaca and Yahoo Finance.

- The option to train and backtest models using Walkforward Analysis, which simulates how the strategy would perform during actual trading. The basic concept behind Walkforward Analysis is that it splits your historical data into multiple time windows and then "walks forward" in time in the same way that the strategy would be executed and retrained on new data in the real world. Walkforward Analysis also helps overcome the problem of data mining and overfitting by testing your strategy on out-of-sample data.

- More reliable trading metrics that use randomized bootstrapping to provide more accurate results. PyBroker calculates metrics such as Sharpe, Profit Factor, and max drawdown using bootstrapping, which randomly samples your strategy's returns to simulate thousands of alternate scenarios that could have happened. This allows you to test for statistical significance and have more confidence in the effectiveness of your strategy.

- Support for strategies that use ranking and flexible position sizing.

- Caching of downloaded data, indicators, and models to speed up your development process.

- Parallelized computations that enable faster performance.

- Additionally, I have written tutorials on the framework and some general algorithmic trading concepts that can be found on https://www.pybroker.com. All of the code is available on Github using the link above.

Thanks for reading!
IBM Donates SBOM Code to OWASP
Great question!

For the most part, we don't turn anything on or off. It stays in it's state. The water heater or furnace have their own systems they abide by, and given they aren't alive, they aren't required to abide by the rules of the Sabbath. This goes for any autonomous system: timers for lights, crock pots, utilities, servers, answering machines, faxes, etc. We don't cook food, so either everything has to be prepared in advance, or we eat cold stuff.

We also follow more strict rules that are beyond tech. Technology is just one thing we avoid (long story short is we are prohibited from making a fire, sparks generated but turning something on is conceivably a distant, but related spark, thus we avoid turning on things). We don't write (no pen/paper) and as adults we don't usually play with chalk, but our children are less contained by this nuance. We don't chop wood. We try to even avoid making plans for after the Sabbath during the Sabbath.

We don't drive cars, do normal work, run errands, do chores (sweeping, cleaning up, etc are fine, but some people hold that even doing dishes may violate their Sabbath, but to each their own).
Only with a lot of glue added or as entire culms
I think it depends. Let's say I sell my finance application to an organization with 10k employees. They then use it to handle transactions on around 100mil per month.

If there are bugs, it may result in money being transfered to the wrong company, or money being transfered without proper approval. Maybe unlikely bugs but could happen.

I can show a banner telling each of the 10k users about browser requirements. I guess that around 99% of the users will ignore that banner and happily proceed with unsupported browsers.

If I don't know if it will work with the browser they are using, why should I let them perform transactions using it? Sure, if it goes wrong maybe I can tell the CFO that their employee ignored the banner, but that won't make him happy.

For me selling the service there are zero benefits with allowing arbitrary browsers.
I agree. People always talk about technicalities, ingredients, structure, etc. in this argument.

For me, the main reason why a hotdog isn't a sandwich is that you can't use the two interchangeably. I would never go up to a hotdog stand and ask for a sandwich.
For email it is sometimes useful to only have a host handling things like reputation and crypto/protocols (DKIM, SPF, DMARC, DANE, MTA-STS, etc.) while doing the actual handling of data yourself.

I'm not sure that gandi's email fits that purpose, but specifically for email it can be a bit more tricky to roll your own than things like HTTPS, so having a hosted solution to handle that can help.

This reminds me of carcinisation. Where natural selection tends to heavily favor crab-shaped animals even though they come from different lineages. Natural selection seems a lot like physics. Given similar initial conditions and a population of organisms, you’re going to get similar results across groups after a period of time.
This is very interesting. Thank you for sharing.

From my perspective I do not have an associate between homosexuality and pederasty. One of the things that bothers me is the targeted investigation on gay men. If someone is investigating sexual activity of priests why are they limiting themselves to homosexual activity? Why is breaking vows of celibacy with women less serious than with men?
Is it printed so much money that they just buy up everything and jack up the prices?

I don't know why you accuse me of elitism when SUVs endanger exactly people who aren't rich and can't afford to drive a car let alone an expensive one like a SUV. Cheaper options (walking, cycling, taking public transport and then walking) are more dangerous because of others choosing to drive huge vehicles. I want it to stop. I support form of protest that impose inconvenience to try to stop dangerous behavior that causes thousands of senseless deaths per year.

There’s no such thing as a sandwich (phylogenetically)
A sandwich is not an ontological category and should be eradicated.
It is questionable that a story about priests using a gay dating app for adults reminds you of... a pedo English teacher you had who hung out with priests? There's a long history of people equating being LGBTQ+ with being groomers, pedophiles and sex offenders, and those stereotypes and false beliefs about one being related to the other are part of what leads to the homophobia that forces priests to be closeted. Perhaps the teacher was around the priests for sex offender reasons? It just seems odd to me to being up pedo stuff on stories about gay people facing discrimination.
Thats why your file system is encrypted with an HSM USB key.

Eehhh at the end of the day, L1 is still almost impossible to bypass and hasn't been broken in years. So it still works, meaning it doesn't really matter even if it's security by obscurity (I dont think it qualifies for the term but anyways).
> I understand that PyTorch is an awesome tool for researchers, but it doesn't necessarily fit into a prod environment.

You need to write some infrastructure around PyTorch to make it work. Something like a key/mapping in each checkpoint that says which architecture to choose with which parameters.

It sure could be easier, but is saving the model's code into the checkpoint enough? Things like the data pre-processing expected by the model would also have to be included for it to really be self-contained.
They're starting to enable it by default recently
I have seen this idea a lot recently and it sounds very plausible. I wonder though if we have a sense of why it happens? For example, perhaps this only happens when companies are in a downward spiral unable to recover, and they are less and less able to spend the cash to preserve reputation? There could be “survivorship” bias in the sense that the only companies with many rounds of layoffs are in a downward spiral.

Which is just to say that, when thinking about whether you should want to be part of a first or second round layoff, you may need to predict the future about whether the company is actually about to enter a downward spiral, before the company leadership predicts it. And, if you are able to do that reliably, you are probably already independently wealthy from making market bets along those lines (and not in a position to be laid off from a job in the first place).
Inconvenience isn't security, and no, security doesn't need to be a PITA.
Yeah, I agree, but I think a "we dont cover that but you can pay for it" is a suitable answer.

In fact, it has to be an option if we ever want cost efficient state coverage.
If you are Catholic and gay, you might feel like perhaps celibacy is the best option for you and in that case, why not consider religious life? I’ve had a number of gay Catholic friends who have started down that path and then decided against it (and some who ultimately continued down it). Not to mention that two male priests going on vacation wouldn’t raise any eyebrows while a priest and a woman going on vacation would.

Catholicism cannot and should not be reduced to a bunch of sexual thou-shalt-nots. Despite some Catholic organizations (like the one in the story) being vehemently anti-gay, the church’s actual teaching is far more nuanced.
We promise that all of those lovely mobile phone numbers won't be used for marketing purposes.
I'm a medical student and I have actually been working on some research to re-evaluate how we decide when to do/not do large bone/joint surgeries. Currently, whether to do surgery or not is based on unvalidated questionnaires that basically ask how much pain they are in and how much it affects their daily activities. We basically don't know when to do these large surgeries or not and the few randomized controlled trials have many issues and report data completely different, limiting the usefulness of meta-analyses. Pretty disconcerting, but I hope that this starts to change in the future as the newest group of surgeons realizes that the current standard of care isn't very evidence based at all.
The service being taken away is the free email for the duration of your registration. If you don't use it, you're likely unaffected.
A burrito is a calzone in the cube rule system, but I'd rather rename that class to burrito.
no, because you haven't advanced any argument to be dismissed or silenced. literally just support for "won't someone think of the men?" that argument hasn't been silenced - you can find it in every right-wing crevice of the internet.

and i'm not preaching anything, just out here observing how every women's issue on HN gets turned into "but what about the men?" or "they must be lying."

anyways, i have to get back to work oppressing men in the workplace. unfortunately we'll never know their plight - as we can tell from the comments here, men definitely suffer in silence and are completely unheard.
I'm looking forward to this app in part because I think I can finally let go of keeping the Plex Player app on my phone almost exclusively for listening to the Glenn Gould SACD collection I ripped like a decade ago. Great recommendation, and I'm genuinely happy at the thought that this release could expose a lot more people to his work.
I think the software development process is fine, it's all the organizational cruft that slows it down. Your company is a good example of it--you probably didn't use Second to make Second, and being a solo dev had to have been a huge benefit to your velocity.

The things that hurt software development are people/process related, and can't be fixed by software, IMO.
