OOP is essentially a software architecture model. You can use this architecture in any language with a bit of discipline even if it does not give you all syntactical safety guarantees. At some point even object oriented assembler was a thing (as assembly routines may very well receive an address pointing to an object).
Reddit is not allowing r/finland to poll their users about whether they should shut down: https://old.reddit.com/r/Finland/comments/14f0rgs/discussion...

Didn't Steve Huffman suggest fairly recently that he was in favor of more democracy, including allowing users to vote their moderators out? https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/reddit-protest-blacko...

So some kinds of user votes are acceptable but others are not?
Oh dear, they used to be able to monitor everything through alcatel backdoors.

I guess they lost that ability now, and are trying to criminalize private communication.
The bitboard approach is similar to how graphics cards used to organize their memory in the heyday. It wasn't one big buffer per screen with one or more consecutive bytes representing on pixel and one pixel after another. There were as many buffers as required by the bit depth, e.g. one for black and white, two for 4-colors and so on. Every bit was a pixel, so the top left corner was the MSB of the first byte of any buffer. We called this bitplanes.
I took the comment id from the url and looked it up in the pushshift data dumps.
I don't think so. Equal tempered intervals have a very distinct sound, and nailing that just from absolute pitch seems hard.
Rooting for Google on this one. MS has nice products but their entire strategy is vendor lock in. For me, from an infosec perspective that means it is much harder to protect inevitable non-ms stuff and it also means I have to spend too much time fighting MS fanboys (and any $product fanboys) telling them going all in on one vendor will have smooth integration and support but the result is always poor quality products and being told by MS what you need and how you should do stuff instead of you, the customer, telling the vendor you pay what you need and have them do it.

Google people overengineer everything but MS just loves adding all sorts of layers of abstraction and complexity too. If Google is like Haskell, MS is C++.

I hate how if you use O365 you basically have to use Azure.
It sounds like your team lacks a culture of continuous improvement - IMO in a product team on-call's full-time job is to make the next on-call engineer's job easier through deleting irrelevant alerts, automating fixes, and generally making the system more stable.

I wrote a longer guide about this here: https://onlineornot.com/incident-management/on-call/improvin...
The executive function deficit that comes with ADHD means that you don't have as much control over those emotions. The discomfort of the task is overwhelming and so you avoid and procrastinate. The fact that avoiding the task is rooted in emotion isn't exacerbated by ADHD, it is ADHD.
Required knowledge and skills. Required knowledge and skills to get on my case are much easier to find than required knowledge and skills to do the thing I need to do.
Ah, so you want this for lessons on a real piano? That seems oddly specific. Far cheaper to get one that has midi capabilities and use any of a number of great apps out there.

I grant that if you can afford a full size piano, you probably don't balk at this thing, though.
Thank you for this!

I know that Cruikshank was the original illustrator of many of Dickens's novels, but I prefer the artwork of James Mahoney. As a point of comparison, the same scene by both artists:

1. "Oliver Rather Astonishes Noah", https://imgur.com/a/DWeblXT, as illustrated by James Mahoney.

2. "Oliver Plucks up a Spirit", https://www.charlesdickensillustration.org/oliver-twist?pgid..., as illustrated by George Cruikshank.

I scanned and vectorized all the artwork for "Oliver Twist" and typeset it at http://ahmadsoft.org/downloads/Oliver%20Twist,%20or,%20The%2... (warning, it's a large PDF due to the high resolution vector imagery), but then I started a company in 2020, and haven't had time to finish "Little Dorit", which, compared to "Oliver Twist", I was able to scan at a much higher resolution and get better quality.
Now try using pip where some 3.10 packages aren't compatible with anything lower and requirements.txt are nigh useless! NPM is heaven comparably.
Can I get a summary on this please? This is way too long and isn't broken up at all.
Same. I don't know if it'd be Lemmy or something else just hosted somewhere, and there might just be 5 of us - if people are interested I can make something today. Strong preferences on platforms? If not I'll make something.
Most of the time it's anxiety. You'd be surprised how easy it is to start doing something when you don't feel any kind of pressure. Getting rid of it is hard work though, sometimes even harder than doing the thing you're procrastinating about. This gives rise to some interesting cost/benefit discussions. Which only serve to increase the anxiety. Enjoy modern life!
Once your company is a certain size, work emails only get sent to work devices. Not sure what you’re getting at with hoping they’re not clicking through from their work computer. Of course they are.

But yes if a high enough percentage of employees are signing up, there’s safety in numbers.
It's merely an observation. Like comparing TV news with radio. A 30min show seems to carry the same info as five minutes of audio.

Something I noticed when just reading a paragraph of light fiction. Weirdly a Poirot book. TV is incredibly lightweight. Not that I don't enjoy some visualisations/realisations.

I had completely given up on TV but did like the ride of Better Call Saul. Which has restored my faith in the medium.

So that's not to say TV can't be fun or info rich, it's just by and large complete vacuous dross. To the point I could believe it's there to keep people stupid.
It's interesting how just switching the positioning of headsets from use cases like Horizon world / second life games to practical uses like DJing , watching movies immediately makes the device seem so much more useful and something I can see myself buying.
I've moved my little hobby website to SvelteKit[1] from react and I am not regretting it.. yet.

The only main frustrations I have are:

- Library support is pretty lousy. You need to fudge things around to get working. I.e, with leaflet and others I have vendored in the libs and redone them.

- Incremental static refresh with svelte kit is not really there. I'd like a web hook or api callback that allows me to refresh certain static pages as I know that changes are made. Right now I'm doing a janky refresh using a file lock notifier & it's a blemish on an otherwise great framework.

- The URL routing in svelte kit is... a little ugly. It's really hard when you have an editor open with 5 `+page.svelte` files. I wish they re-introduced file name routes, rather than folder name routes. It is entirely a personal preference I know, but I have seen a lot of negative things around it.

There is a lot of DMCA hate in these comments.

I run a DMCA take down service where we remove revenge porn for people that are victimized by it. DMCA is the only tool we have to take these images down so as much as there are holes and gaps in that law, it's not all bad.
This is the vaguest argument against react I’ve heard. Not the basis for any rational decision making:

>>> But once you leave this path you may (and more likely will) get into trouble at some point. And sometimes there are projects where you don’t want (or can’t) risk getting in trouble because of the tool you’ve chosen for your UI development. There simply isn’t any room for that.
> If HBS has fewer but better quirky marketing psychology studies, their reputation will do well.

Provided that there are valuable things to discover in the field of quirky marketing psychology.

But if all they want to do is provide a regular supply of ammo to both sides of internal corporate conflicts on marketing strategy, and promote the consulting brand of their profs, their current approach is optimal.
The monopoly on violence is the central component of the power of the state. This case undermines that power as much as violence used in self defence does, and is being prosecuted as passionately as self defence killings often are.
> That said, I do not have hard data here. Happy to be shown I was wrong that that peaked about that time.

I'm consistently confused about what you're saying. Peaked during what time? You've said it peaked -after- test scores started declining. I said it peaked before tests started declining in 2012.

It indeed peaked before 2012: https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=US&q=%... You'll find most of the most critical articles in 2001-2004 if you search past media results, too. There's been a bit of a recent resurgence.

> For teaching/learning, I confess I'm more partial to https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/getting-it-wrong/.

I have no problem with hard tests given to students as a learning tool, which is what your article advocates for. Indeed, I use difficult pre-tests a lot, and my target % correct on tests that I give to students is a 60% average, because this gives me the most statistical power to measure knowledge and students performance. Because a very large proportion of my students are above 80% in national norms, giving them a test that they'll miss 40% of available points is a quite difficult one.

I am not a fan of tests used to measure educators: not because measuring educators isn't useful, but because I believe it incentivizes the wrong behaviors from educators. I consider myself fortunate to not be managed in this way. The time when I got close to this (teaching an AP class) is an experience that I don't really care to repeat, even though my students did well and and my class was one of the most popular at the school. I felt like I did not have enough freedom to do well (discussed above).
Logs are acceptable under the “legitimate interest” basis if you need them to secure your service (GDPR recital 49 and https://www.cnil.fr/sites/default/files/atoms/files/recomman...). In some countries, you may have to retain them for some time: “legal requirement” is applicable here.
I think the transitions from punch cards to CLIs, to GUI/mouse interfaces, then to touch interfaces, are more apt metaphors when considering the impact of VR.

Touch found it's place as the interface for small-form devices. I'm pretty sure VR is the interface for gaming (with other niche applications). It will be wildly popular, probably a headset in every house within 20 years, I just suspect it will be doing what we already expect - gaming, visualizing chemical reactions, architecture, etc... things we already do in 2d, made just a bit more convenient in 3d with spatial controllers.
Good managers are not necessarily good at the task they are managing. There's nothing odd about this. A good manager should have a great understanding at what they are managing, but not necessarily be individually competent at it.
If you are lucky your spouse is that right person. 24x7x365 of being on the case. It worked for me. The challenge is, I told avoid telling her things that I want to avoid. :)
You and I have the same poison of choice and we are probably both working our way to having a problem with it…most people who use it to forget are.

I know HN users on the whole dislike alcohol while being open minded about other drugs, but it really does make things just a bit more tolerable. It lets me destress after work, actually enjoy my free time, and lets me ignore my problems for a bit.

I’d never drink while working, but the moment work is done? Sure, why not drink the rest of the day? I have to cope with life somehow.
Burning cars on the street would sure affect the livability in my neighborhood. The French are passionate people when protesting. And they protest a lot. Makes sense to me to me to mention it. It’s not about the right to assemble, otherwise I’m sure Hong Kong would be on the first spot on the list.
DMCA is a corrupt, offensive attack on consumer rights. Just because it can be used for laudable purposes doesn't change that.
We should ask Signal users to prove the negative, or less be deemed guilty and subject to sanctioning.
Some services (for eg: https://www.immobilienscout24.de/)

continue to bill you even after you cancel your payment. Apparently you have to cancel the contract (which they hide away under several menu options) or they will continue to bill you and you are legally required to pay it or they send debt collectors after you.
Where I work we have true self steering teams. The team's tech lead(s) are most in tune with what the customer wants and how we want to deliver it to them. The rest we figure out in the team. It's very common for non-leads to also start talking to specific stakeholders once they work on a feature. Usually they'll become the (technical) owner of a piece of software just because they build it, maintain it and care about it. This means everyone has a lot of responsibility, but also immense freedom to take on that responsibility the way they see fit.

We have some scrum-type rituals. Primarily stand-ups (15 mins teams call to sync and have stakeholders listen in if they want) and the occasional retro, although it's not a typical retro with a format. They're basically a full team meeting when things aren't going smoothly or something else happens that everyone needs to be aware of ('sudden' crisis at the customer, which they have a lot) and use round tables to make sure everyone is heard. Most other things are handled in smaller groups of relevant people.

We have a backlog in Jira to keep track of what we want to do and in which order. We pick up work kanban style. The current team is 13 people, so it also gives an overview of what's going on where. There's no formal format for writing things down, but over time we've learned to add quite a bit of context, especially for nice to have stuff we don't pick up straight away.

The reason this works is that we hire people who can deal with the freedom and responsibility. We put a lot of trust in them from day one, while coaching them using all kinds of formal and informal systems.
No map shown to a driver at the detail level of navigating intersections should have to care about projections much. At that small a scale earth is approximately flat, and any half decent projection should have minimal distortions of any kind.

Their point is that there are dozens of instruments that also fit that criterion; i.e. the human voice is not the only instrument with that capacity.

Fretless sting instruments allow for continuous pitch modulation - that includes the violin family as well as others like pedal steel guitars, the Japanese shamisen, etc.
Certain wind instruments like slide trombones and slide whistles do the same.
There are also electronic instruments like the theremin or any synthesizer with a pitch bend wheel.
If they tie you up and throw you in the back of a van, and then drive the van to the app, are they not driving you to the app?
I have none...well aside from the law that passed in Florida and Texas earlier this year that allows parents to see _and reject_ lesson plans if they don't like them.

My educator wife, however? There aren't enough minutes in the day to enumerate the inane BS she's put up with from students parents!
The bigger pictures is that potent drugs have an effect that is hard to one-up, and that gives drug providers an edge other any other authority figure.

That's how it played in the Opium wars between the British Empire and China, that's probably a main reason why alcohol and other drugs are prohibited in so many religions, or why they're limited to the leaders of the religion (shamans etc.)
Yes and it often be a physical response too like my arms will start to have phantom aches when forcing myself to do something my adhd is screaming against.

Weird.
This is what a design system is about, you set up the standards of essentially an enum, give them names and say that if the designers want to change it or add something new, they need to add it to the design system. 14 point fonts becomes 'caption' size and so on.
At this point I don’t think it’s fair to call it a theory.
People generating fake photos will just use an AI that doesn't leave a watermark. We are quickly approaching the point at which AI-generated and real images just cannot be distinguished, and we're going to have to adapt to that.
You will depend on today's children to uphold society and care for you in your old age, so asking you to contribute to their education is perfectly reasonable

I read a study once that regular alcohol consumption has a negative impact on long-term planning/decision-making (or on the part of your brain typically associated with that?)

So it's interesting to look at your comment through that lens, because at least in my eyes they seem to align.
Yes GDPR applies, but the part that I was replying to doesn't.
Absolutely, and if there are legal remedies to make them pay... all victims should.

Too few people take stock of the fact that those who deliberately waste their time are stealing from them.
as someone close to the Svelte community, i think the "lack of protagonism" comment is due to the relatively loud voices of those mentioned names.

however the activity in svelte genuinely has picked up year to year. you can follow Svelte Society on Twitter and YouTube to see the many projects going on, in particular https://twitter.com/SvelteSociety/lists for people building and teaching and evangelising Svelte. they're out there! just necessarily smaller because they got started later + have less funding from Facebook.
Price still has to go down to be mass adopted. Apple sell just ~25 million mac per year and probably most of them are just cheaper macbook air with price below $1.5. Even though their current macbooks are great and people see the value of having a laptop, it's a mature market but Apple still has only like 10% market share.

People wallet and their salary is not out of rubber - there is limit how much they can stretch their budget.
It might have something to do with the new reddit being a web app, while old reddit is a website. I've seldom worked on frontend, but I think that with a website, a lot of the hard parts are handled by the browser, whereas with a web app the hard parts you do yourself, poorly.
Ah yes, you ship the org-chart! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_law

Based on the site design, Reddit is a hairball.

Getting rid of what, exactly? The pressure? (Currently procrastinating by the way, on very important things that I keep delaying for some unexplained reason.)

Modern life indeed.
There's an article explaining it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1%25_rule. Of any social network, typically 1% are the power users, 9% are intermittent contributors and 90% are lurkers.
If they can sell stuff in one click, why would being able to not buy stuff be anything harder?

Actually maybe mandating that any buying process must be as hard or harder than cancelation process would be good start.
Religion has always had music. An organ is cheaper, and more scalable, than an orchestra to accompany mass, in both small and large settings. And apart from the very rich, churches were the only places that could afford an organ.

Alcohol is an interesting beast, certainly bad for your physical health but IMHO it's invaluable for your mental health in small doses.

I'm not exactly a drug expert, my experience is limited to a few substances but nothing ever comes close to alcohol. It melts away all the fake constraints(the limits and problems which you only imagine to have) that cause stress and break your flow. All this in moderation of course, being completely drunk doesn't help.

I will be send to oblivion for this but the worst is the weed, it lowers your IQ so much that you think you are so creative for each dumb idea(and you can't have any ideas with depth in that state). Alcohol is not like that, up until a point your mental capabilities(not the reflexes) are intact.

There's this great sketch about being slightly drunk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTSCppeFzX4

I have been using Helix editor for last three months {was a sublime user earlier} and am really liking it. Its LSP is faster than Sublime, needs minimal setup and very similar to vim.
I knew Vim from my engineering days but the configuration part of Vim kept me away from using it and thus using sublime. Helix solved that specific problem.

This actually worked surprisingly well for me. I hadn't gone to the gym in months and it was always a question of: why is this day going to be the day I start?

I used this personalized chat-based service, where I said I will pay 1000$ if I don't go tomorrow. Like magic, there was no way I wouldn't go.

I also used it for shipping a small side-project in 1 week. I procrastinated for 3 days, and then felt this real panic-inducing pressure 2 days before the deadline which forced an incredible moment of focus (like cramming before an exam).

This approach is great when you need ignition from a cold-start to provide that initial momentum which is so important.
You need very strong argument not to take the most popular technologies these days.

I don’t hear any arguments against react here strong enough to justify not choosing VueJS or

It’s not in the interests of your client.

Who cares what software company's in Germany want? They don't want to compete for talent and valuable projects, so talent will want to leave and the company actually wants to cease to be. If you are in Germany, you leave for swiss, Luxembourg, Netherlands for certain improvement, sv for the paygap, to chzekia, Estonia or Poland for a startup. Germany is a old folks home going broke, not a country to start a software development.

Well that's entirely dependent on the task.

For instance, if you have problems submitting your timesheets on time, it could be due to the fact that you're worried about putting too many hours on the budget. If you remove the worry about putting too many hours on the budget, then you might find yourself doing your timesheets on time.

The answer to your question lies in the "unexplained reason" which can actually be explained, that's the hard part.
I don't think "Buddha nature" is a supernatural belief, but Sam Harris certainly subscribes to (some of) Dzogchen Buddhism. If his site doesn't mention it he's just worded differently.
No idea, but at least it is easy to find it now. How many clicks it actually takes is largely irrelevant when we probably click thousands of times for much less trivial things every day.
