I share the spirit. Encription and privacy are important, not sharing important data digitally even more so.
It is entirely possible we got our wires crossed.

The evidence I actually wanted proof for was the original commenters’ assertion that sunblock somehow raises cholesterol to unhealthy levels.

The quote you chose from the article (which I did read, for what it’s worth, but was also very light on sources) strongly suggested that sunblock blocks Vitamin D production. The science on that is unclear, but prior research suggests it doesn’t; that said, it warrants more research. I took your choice of that quote specifically to mean that was a claim you were making. If that wasn’t the case and you simply meant to show that the AAD suggested not being in the sun without sunblock, then I agree.

The science on melanoma being very bad is pretty cut and dry, on the other hand.

I never disagreed that American dermatologists tend to follow a “zero tolerance” policy for sun exposure without sunblock. They would very much like you to get sun with sunblock, though.
While we're talking about this, I've been quite disappointed by the new GitHub file browser: the new features look neat, but the core file browsing experience is significantly worse for me because the new UI is much more complicated and every action seems to do way more work.

I couldn't immediately find a way to opt out; I wouldn't mind the new file browser so much if I could drop into it on demand instead of having it forced down my throat.

If memory serves back in 2016 (when I prepared this talk) he hadn't freaked himself out to the extent that he has now and was still talking about putting himself at the head of an effort to save all of humanity.
Kind of ironic to note that the world is upside down right now.

Public companies, which are regulated precisely to protect the financial interests of shareholders, are forgoing profits for the sake of their ESG scores.

Meanwhile, private equity, which is not regulated in the same way and theoretically could be more easily managed towards objectives other than profit, are smeared as “profit obsessed.”

In a way it's just a sign of its success. There isn't a lot of news about most programming languages because no one cares.
Thank you so much for your opinion and advice. Briefly checked out arc.dev, will dig in deeper.
I based my assumption on the entirety of the post including what they watch when logged in, what I note while viewing similar shows, and the mention of "own-the-libs."

Admittedly, that isn't quite at the bar I prefer. As such, I removed my pointed criticism at the end, leaving the more important and informative piece intact.
This implies you can build it. I've not seen the leak but I doubt it's complete enough to perform a full, working build.
I also started working on a similar website several weeks ago. It's called tuberank, feel free to check it out!

Yeah, I've seen startups do this. I wouldn't attribute it to malice, just inexperience. Keep applying and remember finding a good job is a numbers game!

A startup I worked for wanted to collect applications for all jobs it might post in the next 12 months. I explained that high quality candidates are only on the market for a few weeks (sometimes less than a week), so they were going to end up with a pool of low quality candidates.
I was a kid during this time.

My recollection is that electronics, the school electronics lab, and the people there, were even nerdier than the software equivalents, and also much 'stricter', already well-established and less accessible, whereas software was a new country, open for exploration, with stories in the press of kids making fortunes on video games, etc.

Also that the electronics industry was being completely taken over by the Asian economies.
I agree with what other posters say here regarding building, specifically, C knowledge first.

Further, I've noticed a trend highlighted by people such as Jonathan Blow that there are users of Rust who don't fully understand object lifetimes in particular systems and are hacking around warnings in Rust creating unsafe memory scenarios while being told otherwise because all of their compiler messages have disappeared.

Some things in software engineering are hard, but you can't escape them. It seems like you can only defer the problem until you actually need to understand what's going on, and by the time you realize that, you'll be deep in experience with "weird holes" in your knowledge (as I fondly remember a (pre-?)algebra teacher telling me when I was discussing quaternions in middle school.)
I will get the list of the data sources by the end of the day from the developer's team.

For irreversible computation, yup. If reversible computation turns out to be practical, things are a little weirder, and the bounds are... further away.

Stuff like:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margolus%E2%80%93Levitin_theor...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bremermann%27s_limit

The Landauer limit is dependent on temperature, though. If you fast forward the universe a little bit to let the CMB cool down, even irreversible computing can get pretty efficient in theory.
My guess is that don’t actually mean turndown service, but just general housekeeping.
This would probably work. You could even get cute store it in the form of a silly math problem.

Way back in the early days of emulation, I recall that PS1 emulators (before a workable reverse engineered BIOS was available) would be distributed, but you had to find a bios dump and provide it to the emulator to actually load a game. This helped avoid infringement but of course was a 'hurdle' in getting things running. TBF, it wasn't that bad if you knew how to search right or had a buddy in the scene that knew a good place to download one [0].

On an unrelated note, is it bad that (most of) those early emulation sites seemed less intrusive with popups/adverts than the legitimate news sites of today?

[0] - There was a period where anyone brave enough to distribute a BIOS but allow their page to get indexed by a search engine, stood a good risk of getting a C&D/DMCA.
Side note. Tom Hanks recently did a podcast interview hosted by the UK's Adam Buxton.

Adam's roughly hour-long interviews tend to follow the 'friendly, rambling chat' format, and he is well liked and respected by both his listeners and those he speaks with. Anybody interested in Tom Hanks' person and opinions could do a lot worse than check it out.

The Alignment Problem book is probably much better. Opens with a banger of a historical backstory. I recommend anyone read the prologue to the book just because of the fascinating history it gives us and how well-written it is as an opener.
What has your experience with Altium been like?
I think you underestimate the diverse background and the amount of brain power within last generation. There are scientists that specialize specifically in adaptation and renewable energy.

While yes our world is made around fossil fuels there are alternatives that are available now you just need to look. And instead of stopping fossil fuel expansion and focus on at least taking steps on getting off of them like they are asking, demanding, begging. The world leaders are expanding oil, literally the opposite.

There are no clean fossil fuels, no clean coal, we need to switch to renewables as fast as possible. Instead we're doing the opposite in not giving out oil field licenses, leaving high CO2 emitting markets unregulated and allowing for more brown coal extraction. (Zbg: Lutzerath)

We're in deep, and getting off fossil fuels by 2030 is a long shot but what options do we have unless we want millions displaced or dead?

I commend them for fighting so hard despite Germany almost labeling them terrorists and so many people wanting them dead for being a nucense.

Lastly look at how little has changed even with the 'calm' and 'peaceful' protests... Not much. The tipping point is near and reducing your carbon footprint will do nothing. This literally came from Shell as a way to spin the blame off of them.

The government is the only way out whether we like it or not, so they are some of the ones applying pressure that we need for governments to actually change.

So I believe it's better to try than to say 'we can't do this, that's a moonshot' and give up
Exactly what it says on the tin. Where do rustconf/rust lang leadership diverge from rust users. If 40% of rust devs are women, but only 10% of leadership is women, they are an under represented group in leadership.

There might be reasonable reasons! The existence of an under represented group isn't wrong, it's just a time to ask, "why is it this way?"

To be clear, I'm not saying there should be no under represented groups. But if there are, we should just be deliberate about understanding why. Are there systemic reasons where merit isn't being considered?
One of the reasons why Lua is minimal is that it makes it easier to embed. It's no coincidence :) https://www.lua.org/doc/cacm2011.pdf

Bullshit.
One big difference is : the one that is experiencing the hotel is choosing it and paying for it, have different experiences with hotel before and after...

In hospice it is generally the kids choosing and paying the hospice for their dad or mom who will live there... and when they say the food is bad you often assume they ham it up... And you tend to chose the place based on beautiful brochure, as you have no experience in this area... it is easy to move to another hotel, not so much to move your dad to another hospice

In France we recently had a huge scandal about for profit expensive nursing home (Orpea). Many old people were undernourished to save on food cost for example...

Oh, one more thing to keep in mind: job applications via careers page or online application are the lowest in priority/prestige for most companies.

Get a referral/introduction from a current employee. Look through their roster, find a blog post that resonates with you, and reach out to the author and ask what it's like to work there. =)

Recruiters are also an asset during job search. Treat recruiters like your agent - you're the talent, and recruiters are helping you broker a deal.
Ecotank ink is water-based and more dilute than the normal stuff, apparently to reduce the liklihood of clogging. It needs a cleaning cycle every few months - that's it.
This legislation removes state funding from libraries or schools that ban books. I'm concerned that this will have the unintended consequence that conservative groups will still ban books, libraries will lose funding, and perhaps be forced to close. This outcome won't bother conservatives one bit.
The thing is, the author isn't wrong, he's just not right for the reasons he thinks. Any good lie has a kernel of truth to it. Suburbs are the result of "ethnic conflict" - white flight from desegregated cities and racist urban planning policies designed to deny resources to black communities and neighborhoods[0][1]. He paints himself as the victim when in fact he's the beneficiary.

Yay! Glad to hear there's others in the audience for it. And yeah, the communication and nature of language stuff was good -- along with the general reflection on accounting for the "Other."
When two postal-code locations (e.g., day and night, home and work) are sufficient to specifically identify 90% of the population, and with Android devices being infested with location-tracking capabilities (above and beyond GPS), creating a pseudonymous account != hiding your identity from Google (or whomever else it shares data with, intentionally/willingly or otherwise).

As I've noted previously (<https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30953159>), I recall but cannot find the 2-ZIP-code example, though a paper describing four location points IDing 95% of the population uniquely is here: <https://www.nature.com/articles/srep01376>

ZIP + gender + date of birth is another highly-effective identifier, with 87% accuracy:

The thing is for some.of the academics involved the social in-and-out are their whole careers. If you're a PhD who's entire work is about rust then this stuff matters a lot.

I think that's why having more corporate involvement is probably good for these kind of orgs. Corporate types value stability because the code needs to work and be maintained long term.
SponsorBlock improves the experience quite a bit.
It's actually not ConTeXt which integrates Lua, but LuaTeX; ConTeXt is based on the features of LuaTeX. Lua includes all features required for OOP (see e.g. https://www.lua.org/pil/16.html).

From the article:

> Changing the lens focal length without changing the camera position has no impact upon the perspective in the scene, even though it radically alters the size of objects within the scene

Radically altering the size of objects within the scene is what most average people mean by perspective. It’s exactly the effect the author of the article is claiming doesn’t happen yet he proved it does immediately.

Is that technically the correct usage of the term perspective? Yes! It’s just not the specific technical usage definition common in optics. But it is correct, as it’s referencing the relative size & position of objects.
What's your thesis for them returning to the consumer market if there wasn't a chip shortage? They presumably left that market for another reason, presumably driven by choice rather than necessity.

I always thought anti fluoridation sentiment in Utah was related to them having the highest dentist count per capita. It’s the only state that I know of where fluoridation isn’t common.
Only thing I can really see is mabye go/zig gaining more adoption but I don't think we're even close to that point yet, what's worrying is even discussing something like this happening in the first place. Ideally this sort of thing shouldn't even cross our minds.
Perhaps they could do as on Stack Overflow, and let a downvote cost one point from your accrued points? Or perhaps that's too much of a re-design. It could regulate spam downvotes though. (I think the biggest problem with SO is that your point pool is visible, with gold and silver and so on, which leads to anyone with a high enough sum being treated differently, although that might actually not reflect competence or expertise.)

"It takes months to recover and even after that you likely won't be at full performance like you were before the pregnancy.
...
Quality of life is also quite terrible for the last while before giving birth, not just because of changes in physical size but also the lack of sleep and what a mental impact that could easily be described as mental illness if it wouldn't coincide with pregnancy."

That's not a typical experience. Please don't cherry pick. Otherwise I can cherry pick the other direction and say my wife was working from the hospital bed, and that there is a video of a woman running a mile or something like that while pregnant with her second child and bearing her prior pregnancy record. I'm so tired of this emotionally driven BS.

"Common side effects like post partum depression can easily linger for years if not given time and treatment."

This is a medical disability and should be handled as such. Same for men suffering from depression or anxiety from the pressures of providing for a family.

"The notion that two people make equal sacrifices when they have a child is laughable."

It's going to vary by situation, but you clearly aren't using a systems thinking approach to see the whole picture. It seems you're stuck on the typical indoctrination material. You still haven't answered anything about the actual topic of alimony. For example, what happens when the woman didn't have a career to begin with and had no real prospects? They didn't sacrifice anything career-wise. Different people have different earning potentials. I believe it's unethical to allow a system where someone can marry and take more from someone else than they could make on their own. I also believe this applies equally.
"Make a sound at the volume you want" is sort of interesting as it avoids mapping desired loudness to a percentage of the maximum loudness the computer's speakers can output. Making that sound may be awkward, accidentally dropping something loudly while setting the volume could be cause it to be far too loud.

I think there's another model of "how much louder should the volume be than background noise". Like, I want to hear the TV but background noise is intermittently disrupting me. Although imagine getting a phone call and having your TV shout over you as you search for the remote.
How do you respond to concerns about fairies stealing your children?

For that matter, how do you respond to a calculation (there was one!) that railroad trains could not exceed 41 miles per hour, or all the air would be forced out of the cars and all the passengers would die?

I believe that jtsiren's point is that we're not at the point where we can even define intelligence. We can't calculate anything, because we can't sensibly define any of the variables in the equations. All we can do is make guesses about terms we can't even define. We're like stone-age people worrying that if their neighbors' cooking fire gets too hot, it is going to light the air on fire and we're all going to die, and nobody can reassure us because nobody even knows what burning really is, or what the air's made of. We're millennia away from being able to do the kind of calculation that you want.

So the only choices available are to proceed, or not. And if your answer is "not", you need to convince everybody, because I don't think we're going to (for example) nuke North Korea to stop their AI program unless you've got a really convincing case. Which nobody has now.
Conservation groups like the Mountain Lion Foundation or the Sierra Club are legitimately terrible at advocating for balanced, holistic solutions. They’re the literal definition of special interest groups.

There should be alignment of interests between environmental groups and rural people who don't want their communities destroyed by wildfire. Neither of them want the forests burned down. Instead, these groups pursue a singleminded focus on attacking anything that doesn’t comply with their dogmatic pursuit of wilderness untouched by anything other than recreation.
I can attest that _Mountain_ has an aspirational/hopeful side (along with some conflict, and confrontation with some bleakness).
The point was that my friend couldn't get his daughter to learn, period, without a fight until he solved the mode switch problem. And that parents in the same housing development didn't seem to be able to solve it either as their children are now far behind those of my friend's daughter and her compatriots from that pod.

Neither individual home tutors nor parental tutoring nor online schooling seemed to be able to solve the problem. The solution required an in-person mode switch of the teacher and environment.

Now, this could obviously be different for, say, college age or adult learners. Young children don't have the same general understanding of conditions that adults do. On the other hand, "mode switch" is a thing even for adults as we talk about "flow" all the time.
It really seems from what I've read over time, there are a tight core oligarchy of 4 or 5 people who think they are the end all be all of decision making and everyone else be damned. They will defend each other against all outsiders. I've seen this on other committees, it's never pretty when it finally comes crashing down around their heads. I hope this doesn't continue to tarnish the reputation of rust as a great language to learn and expand upon.
Perl having all the typical bindings for sockets, ioctl, localtime, and most of the stdlib stuff probably scratched the itch well enough. And the overall syntax isn't terribly different from C, if you want. So that makes sense to me.
