During my tike there, Amazon's failure culture, as in yes, mistakes and failures happen, and as long as don't happen twice and lessons are learned nobody gets blame or the axe, was one of the things I liked best.

This whole asking for punishment is what actually drives a culture in which these kinds of things do happen more frequently, because everyone involved just wants to cover their asses.
I thought it was actually a rather polite way of saying that the forces involved are just way beyond anything in normal human experience.
The first paragraph leaves such a bad impression for an interesting text and research question.

In some sense, the author contradicts himself by using the model to do something non-trivial that parrots certainly can't do.
Postman doesn't need to show, potentially scan, and parse the contents of some text while displaying on a website.

Nanosecond level sync is fairly achievable with Precision Time Protocol [1]. This is common in most media systems where small amount of drift will cause phase issues with audio. Not my area, but I believe it's seeing a few using in the DC space too [2] where they may be strong requirements around event ordering for distributed systems.

The White Rabbit Project [3] also extends it to the picosecond realm for research control and instrumentation systems.

Not a scratch on this project though.

If you have time, or have pre-made it, using clarified butter results in a better final product. I keep some in the fridge all the time. Ghee would probably work similarly, but I have never tried it.
They died before they had a chance to use almost any of their oxygen.

But how much time could more air by you when you have no food or water and it's 39 degrees? Do you want that time if you're on the bottom of the ocean and they can't extract you?
Yes, that’s clearly GitHub looking at the contents. At that point you just have to trust they don’t do anything else with the internal representation they’ve built.

When Gmail was introduced two decades ago, there was some short-lived furore about the fact that Google admitted they were reading your emails for ad targeting purposes. To a lot of people like myself, this seemed a bridge too far when you’re used to servers that don’t “look” at your private stuff. But it certainly didn’t hurt Gmail’s adoption. (I still don’t use Gmail because of this original lingering distaste.)
It's the sharing with partners bit that I don't like. If I want that to happen, I should be able to explicitly grant permissions.
While UUIDs are pretty common, they are by far not the only or superior solution. To be able to easily generate IDs on different nodes in a distributed system something host-specific, pure random, or a mixture of both is needed. To be avoid problems with random numbers on DB indexes some time-based part would be useful. There are other approaches like Ulid or TSID which are similar to UUID v7, but are represented in are more compact way.

Example Ulid vs UUID:

> Why do you keep using that word? Having a position isn't absolutist.

I call the position that abortion is forbidden because the foetus is a person and therefore abortion is akin to murder absolutist.

> Abortion is more legal in America than Europe as a whole, as well.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_Europe

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_the_United_States

The portion of the population living under an abortion ban of under 10-12 weeks is around 5% in Europe (due to Poland) and closer to 15% in the US. These Americans live under legal restrictions that are otherwise almost entirely confined to Africa, South America, and Poland:

https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/countries...

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/how-the-u-s-compares-w...

While Texas abortion law is stricter than Saudi Arabia's, it is still more lenient than Iran's or Madagascar's.

> Additionally, this is also the biological view on abortion

It is certainly not. A foetus is a living thing, but so is lettuce; or a tumour. Biology has no view on when the foetus becomes a person, i.e. a being with the same moral value as that of an actual live human. That is purely a question of spiritual faith.

Biology can tell us, however, when a foetus is a thing that can experience pain. The common view is at 24 weeks, but some think it could be as early as 12 weeks. But again, a mouse also feels pain and yet not considered a person.

> Sure, if you discount the Shia, Malikis, Ibadis, etc. And the rest are tend to be very prohibitive even before that point.

Again, prohibitive does not mean forbidden because it is murder. Islam forbids consuming alcohol and Judaism forbids tattoos or lighting a fire on Saturday -- to a stronger degree than they forbid abortion, BTW -- but they don't forbid these things, or abortion, because they are the same as or similar to murder.

> There's nothing peculiarly Christian about the Christian conception of life.

There certainly is. It is primarily Christianity that forbids abortion because of the belief that the foetus is a person at or close to conception. It's because of that the the issue takes on a particular vehemence where Christianity is popular.

<< The amount of anti-China propaganda in western mainstream media is so blindingly strong that we can no longer have a logical conversation about China.

<< What do you think China should do prevent extremist muslims living inside China from randomly killing innocent people, which was fairly common?

We can absolutely have a logical conversation.

Based on the information that we do have as a public, and it appears to be somewhat accurate, is 're-education camp' an euphemism or really just a school to adjust malcontents to the true way of life in China?
If that were the case then we'd expect a similar level of wonderful lines in the works of his contemporaries, but he was very clearly a standout wordsmith even compared with other fine writers such as Marlowe, Middleton, Webster and Jonson etc.

It's not that his are the only works to have survived, they're simply the only ones we still speak of in regular conversation.
Because most contents you find on the web is of even worse quality than what you find in pdf's (provided you read on a big screen).
I think HN would look at lot more favourable on it if it defaulted to do serverside rendering, but you could turn it off. I had a look, and for me at least on the initial load there's also a flash as the markdown displays and then gets replaced with rendered content, which kinda drives home that something unusual happens - it might also make it feel nicer to hide the markdown with css until it's rendered. (It's odd because it doesn't seem to happen consistently, even with a hard refresh.)

Before the "XSLT adventure" I wrote a big webapp in C++, and we actually had a C++ rendering pipeline that had a component model to render not all that different to an initial React server-side rendering, combined with a pipeline where custom tags could be registered to further rewrite the output. I really liked that apart from being C++ and lacking the ability to optionally to client-side rendering.
Hey thanks!

No, rcmd does not expose any API, but you can disable/enable only specific letters from the Settings: https://shots.panaitiu.com/zz8Y2kxL

You can also change the trigger key from ⌘ Right Command to any combination of direction-aware modifiers.

Also, if you don't make use of rcmd's dynamically assigned apps and you prefer to assign a letter to a specific app, you can use BTT only for this, no need for going through rcmd.

BTT has a focus-or-open action and it's what I used before building rcmd. It can't hide or cycle apps with the same letter like rcmd does but it's good enough for some people.

There's quite a lot of work on this kind of thing; any edition of Shakespeare with good notes will alert you where a line resembles something 'proverbial'. One thing you notice is that although he often alludes to proverbial sayings, he seldom includes them verbatim - more often, it is a glancing, passing suggestion of them, or he uses them with a twist, or as part of some more complex figure of speech he is developing.

edit: there's actually a great example in the article: "No man’s pie is freed from his ambitious finger".
How do you arrive at that conclusion?

They could feed private repos into copilot. It might make copilot better. It's certainly useful to automate extraction of IP with plausible deniability. If someone notices, they can claim "oh that must be in a public dataset as well".
In general, any model that uses fine grained reactivity (Vue, Preact, Solid, Svelte) will be more "forgiving" then one that uses coarse grained reactivity (React) because it triggers smaller component tree updates.

This tends to reduce certain classes of bugs like side effects from unexpected re-renders and performance issues like over rendering.

The thing with React and Next is that it's great if your team is relatively homogeneous in terms of skill and experience or you have strong systems in place to enforce practices. However, the render cycle of React and the provider pattern is prone to bugginess otherwise. A firsthand example is Algolia's React components. Look at the GH issues. We ran into tons of issues related to unexpected redraws.

Not related to private repositories; but GitHub also keeps logs about commits in the "Activity Graph" if these commits do not exist anymore.

For example, clearing the full reflog of a repository and then either force pushing over or deleting the remote repository (then pushing it again under a different name) will keep the activity attribution, in the second case it might even attribute the commits to the new remote (404ing when clicking the "Created x commits in y repositories").

Good for team workflows and pull requests, but annoying for public repositories with intentionally rewritten history.
As someone who brokered Lexis PII in a past life, what scares me about this is how dirty the data are.

That said, it’s not a loophole. State and federal laws make certain data public or quasi-public for limited purposes, and I can’t think of any reason the government should be prohibited from buying it for one of those purposes. The fourth amendment is designed to prevent the government from collecting information that is distinguished as categorically private by definition.

"Highly likely"? No. You are ignoring probability. See UUIDv4, which does not use time or NIC/MAC but does use 122 random bits.

"some of the most complicate aspects of software engineering is how to interface your work with the work of others"

And where exactly is the difference, when you write a OS, where you have to interface with the low level hardware and the choices of those engeneers?

Apart from that, what is stopping you? Just pick a simple plattform and start. But yes, the result will be probably hard to sell, unless you find the right niche.

LLMs are a black box not because they're closed or open source, but because they're based upon a neural net. yes, a closed-source LLM is more of a black box, but an open-source LLM is still a black box

beyond the error rate, the problem with using an LLM vs user-generated titles is that LLM use costs money, and we're not quite at the point of running high-quality LLMs on generic hardware yet. also, realistically titles aren't the main problem that needs solving here

also, do not underestimate petty people: sponsorblock works just fine with user-generated data

Experiments with chess players and memorization shed some light on this.

DeGroot’s research showed the average person is quite poor at recalling chess positions from real games, while chess masters have almost perfect recall even after seeing the board for only a few seconds.

However, when the chess masters were given completely random arrangements of pieces on the board (as opposed to positions from real chess games), they were no better than the average person.

This and other experiments suggest it’s not a visual snapshot, but functional knowledge and chunking, such as knowing pawns typically protect one another in diagonal chains, etc.

I recall from talking with high rated chess players, they rarely visualize the board in the mind’s eye, but they just know things without thinking, like, a bishop on d3 attacks the square h7 and not h6. Not from rote memorization, but from playing and seeing that sacrificing a bishop on h7 is a thematic attacking pattern.

Most of the things I get on TikTok are, I would argue, genuine content that someone made because they wanted to or is following along a trend that is ongoing. I don't get a lot of people showing off a product, and often when they do it's for stuff I'm interested in and I'm already following them for.

Perhaps its a matter of diversity. Instagram feels very monotone in its ads: bottom barrel mobile games or brands trying to sell me their garbage I don't need nor would be interested in. TikTok on the other hand feels less monotonous in what I get shown.

The specific instrument will have a big impact too. Most organs around now (which is an unspecified period of time after when you’re speaking of) have two manuals, each of four octaves, one octave of straight pedal board, lacklustre voices and speakers, and issues of at least some form (e.g. a few notes that just don’t work any more). They’re just not particularly fun. But get one in good working order with three manuals, two of which have five octaves, and two octaves of properly curved pedal board, and power, and it’s altogether another matter: then, if you’re a child, your only difficulty will be that your legs aren’t long enough. It’ll be more enjoyable, and even a bit easier to play (though the difference in ease of playing won’t be as stark as between a poor upright piano and a good grand piano).

My jaw is still on the floor,” said Prosanta Chakrabarty, an ichthyologist at Louisiana State University and the curator of fishes at its Museum of Natural Science. “It’s like if they had a cow and a giraffe make a baby.” Then he quickly corrected himself, because the lineages of those two ruminants split only a few dozen million years ago. The evolutionary paths of paddlefish and sturgeons diverged 184 million years ago. For those fish to breed is more like “if a human came out of a platypus egg,” he said.
