My favorite thing to do when looking at paintings is to stand next to it and look at it from a steep side angle.

I have never once in my life intentionally dragged text. Unintentionally several times, and each time wondering what kind of deranged person designed this misfeature.

.. okay it’s mostly a misfeature because it’s the exact same input gesture as selecting text, but you have to remember that there is text selected / ensure that no text has been inadvertently selected.

Another case where making the user remember things can cause a problem is hybrid cars, where the driver needs to know the state of the hybrid battery because the responsiveness of the brakes and acceleration change depending on it.
It's not as much as "celebrating someone's death" (you can't really celebrate the death of someone you didn't know even existed) as much as pointing out the idiocy of paying 250k dollars to see the Titanic in what can be only described as a MacGyvered cylinder of death, ignoring regulations, advice from experts, and even basic engineering. People being killed by their own hubris has usually been a source of comedy.

> This stuff combined with sentiment/hatred towards people who are politically hostile/disagreeable paints a picture of a bleak future for this society.

Well, something that might add context for you is that a lot of people already think the future for society is very, very bleak; and they think that the ones to blame are just like the ones in the submarine, specially the CEO. So it's no wonder there's not much empathy going around for them.
I mean... seems pretty easy to correlate previous UFO sightings with aerial vehicle testing.

I'd expect basically any semi-competent government to be monitoring those reports and increasing surveillance in the area.

> but these aren't 100 billion dollar companies for nothing

Producing the best possible software doesn't produce the highest possible revenue. You'd want to produce something that works well enough that it's viable for the customer to keep hiring your consultants, but also makes it necessary to continuously keep hiring them.

So that translates to producing the worst possible software that barely works. So no, they're not $100B companies for nothing. They know exactly how to walk that line.
Lmao that is ridiculously unfair since you're starting with a near-universally agreed bad thing.

Better analogy augmenting yours: just cars. Accidents between cars or cars and pedestrians kill lots of people every year.

This works with every tech. Phones have made it easier to coordinate crimes. Printing press and even televisions made mass propaganda possible. There are always tradeoffs.
Most Rails apps just aren't engaged politically. More education and activism is necessary to mobilize them.
If you go up to someone in the street, and tell them about the plastic in the water supply and food they eat, how it's harming them, and that we need to better clean it up and regulate it, they're going to understand exactly what you're talking about, and they won't get into a debate with you about whether you're talking about dead skin, artificial skin, or BPA.
Which is why everyone buying a tesla with autopilot is required to complete hundreds of hours of training on it that help them understand these limitations and complications, and how to understand the opaque system.

Oh wait, no, drivers get half an hour to demonstrate they won't immediately kill someone when driving, and routinely don't even know how their car's mirror dimmer works.

So maybe these contexts should stop being compared, because it's dishonest to do so.

My theory is that these spheres are spinning and move using the Magnus effect (the effect that causes a spinning soccer ball to curve). Theoretically, if you have gyroscopes inside the sphere, and you can find a way to transfer the gyroscopes' spin to the sphere, the sphere will spin in a controllable direction and move where you want it to. Lift can be achieved by filling it with helium.
You should call it d/dx bar.

Anyway, I love the choice of theta because a while ago I came up with a nice notation for sin and cos and this fits it really well. When I first learned trig, it was by way of skipping into physics early. I only understood cos as the magic button for getting x components from angles, and y as the button for y components. So my notation is based on this very literal brute understanding. All the symbols are circles with lines on the appropriate sides.

sin = -O- (should be overbar)

cos = O|

-sin = _O_

-cos = |O

Why did I make symbols for the negative versions of the same functions? Is minus sign too good for me? No. I did it because you can differentiate by just rotating the symbols clockwise and integrate by rotating counter clockwise. d/dx O| = _O_.

The way you defined theta, and the graphical depiction of theta, fits nicely.
Having worked in two companies practicing hybrid office with no nominative desks but two very different ways of doing it, I can say that it can be great. Or a nightmare.

In the first one they just converted regular nominative desks to free ones. Every desk had different screens with different cable standards, no ergo stand for the screens, some had shared keyboards, each had different chairs, some had drawers, some had accessible outlets, other were hidden behind the desk... You had to come with your stuff from home. And the cleaning was done once a week.

The second one, every desk is the same. The same two screens on ergo stands. A USB-C dock with network connected to the screens. Easily accessible on the desk to plug USB devices. Same chairs at each desk. Each employee has a big personal locker to put stuff like keyboard, headset, coffee mug... Cleaning done every evening so when you arrive in the morning everything is perfectly clean.

You can see which is which.

The second is by far the best place I worked at in my 10+ years career. Depending on what is your main topic of the day, you just pick the next near the people with whom you'll work. Don't want to be bothered with your coworkers most of the day? Just go near another team. And you can also meet new people this way. You can even change desk during the day if need to change context. Just unplug your laptop.

I know people prefer having their own desk with pictures, goodies and other junk. And I thought I was one of them. Until I tried free office the right way.
The idea of photo stream was that you could have your photos on more than one of your devices but not stored on an ongoing basis in the cloud.

The photos would be stored in the cloud for up to 30 days to allow each of your subscribed devices to download them within locally within that timeframe, then would be deleted.

Ask HN: Any gamedev magazine in paper that targets teen/beginners?

To be clear, way too much of what I've read on this subject has been excessively confident tut-tutting with little to no real engineering expertise.

People want to imagine that the simple use of carbon fiber here was the sole mistake, I guess because it's easy to understand and makes us feel smart. But come on, engineering is harder than that. Carbon fiber pressure vessels have a long history. Composite material failure modes are for sure more complicated than metals but they certainly aren't a mystery. We've been using composites for more than half a century, we know how they work.

No, my gut says the root cause here (if we ever find one[1]) is going to turn out to be a more routine kind of engineering fuckup. It'll be just some weak point that the analysis failed to turn up.

[1] And sure, if we don't then the "carbon fiber death cylinder" theory will just become part of the folk truth, I guess.
Show HN: Vivid – Hand off ready-to-use components from Figma
Product designers meticulously create pixel-perfect designs in Figma using components, variant properties, and autolayouts – why should developers repeat that work in code?

Vivid cuts out redundant work by letting designers own UI while devs focus on functionality. Link your existing React components to those in Figma, create GitHub PRs from completed designs, and automatically reuse components even after developers have added functionality.

Vivid currently supports TypeScript React with CSS Modules and Tailwind CSS. We’re working hard to add better responsiveness support, auto-modularity, and existing component linking.
It's very surprising to me how much non-tech people are willing to put up with. They'd patiently wait for their phone to freeze for a solid 5 seconds because they installed an antivirus on it, and then proceed to try to use it at 2 FPS.

The quality bar is so low now, it went underground. It's so easy to compete with the status quo. You just pretend that all the "progress" that happened in software development technologies over the last 15 years didn't happen. And, most importantly, you treat JS as a macro language for a glorified word processor and don't try to build actual applications with this stack.
I can sense some stress in your writing. "Intelligence", as you refer it, could be heavily linked to emotions. Just the feeling that you are falling behind could be enough to trigger a poor performance. Try to keep your mind cool, and release some of the pressure you are feeling (my de-stresser is weight lifting). You seem to still conserve a good base "intelligence", so that is a pretty good foundation, just keep going and let it compound over time. There are plenty of opportunities for people that have a passion, even without a formal education at all or with lifelong conditions. Learn to live with your constraints, and make the best of them. In 10 years, you'll look back surprised about how far you've come, even if it does happen that you have a lifelong problem (which might well be fully resolved in a few months).

Thank you for replying! I was trying to duplicate the empty links issue over and over and couldn't figure out anything.

Registering allows you to save recipes & then do meal planning, which creates a saved grocery list for you. I couldn't really figure out a way to do it anonymously without having a list of recipes you wanted to pick from. Drag and drop just seemed easier.

You're right, I definitely need more recipes.

> I don't want to register and record my recipes on your website, because now anyone can alter them.

Anyone can alter them, but realistically it's just for formatting, spelling, or adding a picture. It's like wikipedia where all the edits are saved, so you can just revert any changes.
I had a math graduate student teaching my linear algebra class. He taught dot and cross products entirely algebraically, never drawing vectors as arrows, but as arrays of numbers. When I suggested after class that teaching the visual representation might help some students, he pushed back. Visual understanding, he explained, was a crutch best avoided, because visual intuition could break down in higher dimensions. I thought that was a surprising perspective from a math graduate student, of all people.
Rust programs can run without a libc:

1. on Linux

2. in embedded

The vast majority of them do use libc, as the underlying platform requires. The default on Linux is to use a libc as well.

probably a good number of drunks/kooks and then probably a handful of unknown phenomena that would have a reasonable explanation if we had better photos/descriptions.

*edit: I don't mean to imply that anyone claiming to have seen something they couldn't identify in the sky is a kook/drunk, I do strongly believe that there are credible observations of unknown flying objects, just that they are unlikely to be alien in origin.

I will say my thoughts on the matter:

Are there aliens out there? near 100% chance (given the size of the universe it seems insanely unlikely we're the only planet with life)

Are aliens within visiting distance of earth? pretty low chance

Are aliens visiting earth mainly focused on the rural united states? near 0% chance

Buck2 is much faster than Buck and pretty great for the set of problems it's trying to solve. (I'm skeptical that the corner that Meta has painted itself into is good, but assuming that that can't change, buck2 is great.)

Remote builds are common now, from what I've heard.

Sapling is the name for Meta's fork of Mercurial. Piper is not a reimplementation of Perforce, by the way. The closest equivalent that Meta has to Piper is their source control server Mononoke.
It seems likely much more effort will go into evaluating the failure than went into designing this submersible. It would be interesting to know how much more.

Why is the hull difficult to accurately model? (assuming the exact materials and precise dimensions were known).
It does, but all dependencies are put in the same folder, which is why the original poster conflated them.

If you look at the linked Cargo.toml you'll see

> For one thing, unbounded loops are situationally fine. The key distinction is that the program has to make forward progress regardless, which is not always the same thing as escaping the loop.

The article somewhat alludes to this, although they don't use the notion of progress that you use, which is extremely important.

> This rule does not, of course, apply to iterations that are meant to be nonterminating—for example, in a process scheduler. In those special cases, the reverse rule is applied: It should be possible for a checking tool to prove statically that the iteration cannot terminate.

As a further searchable term, people can look up "total functions." Total functions must either terminate (loop ends) or be productive (always make forward progress). That as many functions as possible should be total is a pretty good rule of thumb in any codebase.
it's based on effort of the users... clearly they just skipped that part. I might try to automate that.

In terms of reading the notation out loud, if there is verbal ambiguity, remove it?

For instance, for your example:
"X plus B quantity squared"
or "x + b squared"

You can also do things like change the pitch of speech as symbols are nested, play specific tones to represent symbols, pan things across the stereo field to represent groupings, and otherwise make the symbolic equation into a multimodal experience.

But of course, you can't do any of this if the semantic representation of the equation is lost and it is rendered as strictly graphics or whatever.

I'm a bit confused to your original point about visualization because how ever in the world could I program if I couldn't abstractly manipulate symbols? I suppose not visually, but there's something non-word-oriented happening in my head.
Wait, what encryption would iOS have used 15 years ago that's now unsafe?

AFAIK Android has always used dm-crypt (should be familiar to any Linux user) with AES, which I'm pretty sure is still safe.

Back then I think maybe it used CBC mode, whereas now it defaults to XTR, but again AFAIK, CBC is still safe, it's just that XTR performs better for block devices or something.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

The US exit tax is not a wealth tax. It is calling due any deferred capital gains taxes. If you have a billion dollars cash, you can leave and pay zero tax. If you have a billion dollars in assets that have not appreciated since you bought them, you pay zero tax.

It is only comes into play if you have investment assets that have gone up since purchase, and you have paid no taxes on them because they are taxed at the time of sale.

While I agree with your general premise, is it fair to call NASA an "independent" authority when they're also a SpaceX customer? In fact many of NASA's own project timelines depend on SpaceX meeting its development milestones, so there could be some bias in favor of prematurely approving SpaceX projects.

I suppose the FAA would be more of an independent authority in that regard, although I'm not sure how much authority they have over space regulations (compared to launch).

Uh... really? That's the most anti-consumer thing you've ever seen? It may be anti-consumer, but that's nowhere near one of the worst. At least it's actually feasible and straight-forward to cancel with Proton, unlike certain big-name Silicon Valley firms; at least they aren't known for outright stealing your money, canceling your accounts at a whim, or refusing support. I don't like it, but they explicitly warn the user what's going to happen if they downgrade, and there's of course the refund you mentioned.

Having been a happy customer of Proton for many years, I wouldn't say "run" on that basis. It may be a deal breaker to some, but I've been happy enough with what I get that I find it a tradeoff worth tolerating.
