Seems like every person I've ever met in M&A has ended up hating life because of their career choice. They seem to burn out in 5 years or so after salting away a million bucks or 3. Was that your feeling doing the HFT thing?
Yeah, my 9-year-old grandson could not upload his hillarious videos about dinosaurs anymore. Please explain to him that he can open some Patreon to support his Youtube fees instead.
No. No they are not. Do not keep proliferating this idea, as there are real consequences. Your input only informs the likelihood of the output. There is no model actually extrapolating rules from the information, so the premise of LLMs being extractive is 100% verifiably false. They summarize well due to being handed a roughly correct arrangement of tokens to mimic the order of. This should not be confused with extraction.

To put it simply, keep falling for that, and it'll bite you in the ass.
While cooked dolphin meat has a flavor very similar to beef liver, it is high in mercury, and may pose a health danger to humans when consumed.

You might be conflating two things.

One is Chaos Orb, a card in the original Magic sets. https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multive...

One is Chaos Confetti, a card in one of the Un- sets that you were referring to.
https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multive...

I don't know if the Chaos Orb play is real or apocryphal. It may be that Chaos Confetti is a reaction to the story behind Chaos Orb.

As a side note, neither of these cards are legal in any common tournaments anymore.
Yep, I feel pretty dumb right now. Annoyingly I can't edit my comment now, but please disregard it.
The post says BSD tried to do what I said. And it failed to actually do it right, as basically a bug. And needed to be updated to do what I said. Which took a couple decades to find out & make happen but was a bit of an issue.

Still no confirm or deny on Linux.

People dislike Java because of all the...

public void setPints (int pints) {
this.pints = pints;
}

public int getPints () {
return pints;
}

...-esque stuff, and similar overly verbose constructs you get when you follow certain Best Practice guides.

Personally I kinda like Java, despite it having 4 different kinds of brackets and object.method() syntax. Maybe it's the combination of 1 file 1 class and using classes for everything.
Global warming is heavily impacted by animal agriculture. The vegan solution is to stop consuming animals. But why can't we just stop eating bovines, which cause 80% of those emissions? Why can't we switch to chicken? Why can't we eat sardines? Why can't we modify industrial ag diets so they produce less enteric fermentation? Why can't we have carbon taxes so that the costs of remediation are priced into the meat? If you ask the vegan, none of that works...We MuSt ImEdIaTeLy CeAsE aLl HuMaN cOnSuMpTiOn Of AnImAlS!!!!!!!!!

It's the same here. It's not good enough to better regulate fishing methods that minimize bycatch. It's not good enough to tax and penalize bycatch. It's not good enough to shift consumption to small pelagic forage fish that have negligible bycatch. It's not good enough to shift to farmed fish, or freshwater fish. Nothing is ever good enough...we must immediately discard human diets and cultures that have evolved over hundreds of thousands of years, and if we're not willing to do that, we obviously hate dolphins. Can you sense an eye-roll here?

So here is my elaboration: vegans start from the end goal and then work backwards to find any reason to justify it, no matter how disconnected from reality it is. And it is always the same...the only way to solve every single problem on the planet is to stop consuming animal products. It lacks any form of intelligent thought or nuance, and it is an extremely disingenuous form of argument, so it gets the response it deserves: derision and dismissal. Come back when you want to have an actual conversation.
The alternatives are stop watching the content or pay for it. If you chose the ad-supported version then that's on you.
The "return to center" behaviour of the N64 Control Stick is provided by a spring that pushes up against a plastic bowl which is underneath the stick. The stick itself slots through two curved plastic pieces for each axis, and the upward force basically forces the stick to 'center' at the lowest point of the bowl. The issue is as others have described. There actually never was any lubricant, so over time the bottom of the stick and the bowl just erode away. Eventually it reaches a point where the bowl is eroded away enough that the spring is no longer able to force the stick back to the center, and it just sort of flops in the dead space eroded in the bowl.

Nowadays, one can get replacement parts, and fairly easily restore/fix the problem. Add in a bit of PTFE lube or lithium grease and it greatly extends the lifespan of the replacement as well. Used to be able to get rather fancy steel bowls and analog sticks which significantly reduced the wear even more.

The more 'standard' thumbstick design has a similar self-centering mechanism. They are actually susceptible to the same problem. However, two things contribute to it being witnessed less frequently, I suspect. The first, is that the "bowl" in those sticks actually has lubricant which greatly reduces the wear, and the second is that the mechanical parts tend to outlast the potentiometers; that is, the sticks start to drift before you get the "floppy stick" problem to begin with and then you stop using it or replace the stick, and therefore it doesn't actually see enough wear to cause the floppy stick problem.
While that's a criticism that can be made of the game, it has nothing to do what's going on here. The card is perfectly available normally; it's simply the card with this particular frame treatment and artwork that there's only one of.

Salmon and trout feed usually contains a combination of fishmeal, fish oil, and plant-based ingredients. Fishmeal and fish oil are typically derived from small marine fish like anchovies, sardines, or menhaden.

IIRC it takes upto 5 kg of fishmeal to produce 1kg of farmed fish.

Fish farming has also issues (water pollution, eutrophication, diseases and parasites, feed dependency contributing to overfishing and unsustainable fishing practices, ...).

You are right, the title could have been better.

Normally, "batteries" are just "innert" supply of energy and require no additional monitoring. The article talks about how with EVs the batteries need to be connected all the time to watch for temperature, voltage, current, charging, and way more than before.

There is crazy amount of engineering that has to be still improved around battery management.

My understanding, could be wrong.
Haha right. I guess I’m a control. I’ve never really watched bowling before though so maybe that does make me a good control.
In a country with 200 million people, do you think Bolsonaro is the only one that can carry the will of the people?

Bolsonaro was attacking democracy. Claiming the election was stolen and ginned his supporters up to try and cease power by force. That sort of person is incompatible with democracy.
I closed the tab since last night, but if you Google "IARC dataviz" you're probably going to get it as the first Google search result. It's a site IARC runs itself, with historical data visualizations.

People also make decisions based on preferences. Collectively those preferences play out such that we can make generalizations.

That collectively people like Taylor Swift can be generalizatized that her music must be popular. That's irrespective of an artists merit for whatever that might mean to an individual.
> You gotta _tell_ people you made something.

I think that the rest of your discussion hinges on this assumption, and I completely disagree with it.

What you need actually is for people to know that your product exist.

People have needs & problem beyond the fake ones created by advertising.

People can _ask_ for what options exist to solve their problem. And that to me is fundamentally different.

Having a way for consumers to go out and pull information in about what options exist is fundamentally different from having advertising shoved down their throat.
A fun thing about the Dual sense rumble is that it's just sound data. One time u changed my PC to output to the controller, thinking it would use the speaker, but it just played the audio via vibrations.

(I'm not sure if that's just how all "linear resonant actuators" work, just found it neat)
The more these happen, the more likely it'll be that the role of CISO will need to be compensated commensurate to risk.

And report up to the CEO.

But it also depends on the nature of the action that's about to come down. My guess is something to do with misrepresentation of Solarwinds' security posture.
Pretty easy. The website will request a specific DNS domain via XHR, something like: 49uz89psdfu89.dns.bgp.tools and will record the address that contacts the DNS server.

As a Norwegian, I can tell you farmed fish is not as ecologically friendly as one might believe. Here it's generally farmed in fjords. Because factory farming and parasites go hand in hand, parasites are a huge problem, killings lots of fish. To combat this, they dump a bunch of nasty chemicals into the water like organophosphates and ivermectin. This is very harmful to aquatic life in the area. The parasites bred in these conditions can also be dangerous to aquatic ecosystems. And farmed salmon have a tendency to escape their ponds and mess up wild fish populations.

May be less ecologically harmful than fishing, but it's not exactly good either.

Edit: correction as per the helpful reply below.
Chaos Confetti is a reaction to the Chaos Orb story -- that's why the flavor text is "And you thought that was just an urban legend."

Note that Chaos Confetti, being from Unglued, was never tournament legal. However, Chaos Orb was for a time, being from the original Magic set.
That's my rough average for actual work, including meetings, which can vary a bit.
I've been at the company 5 years, when I first started I worked my ass off and got a lot done, but it was frustrating seeing how slowly everything worked and how little work people did, it felt like the company actively pushed back against trying to get anything done fast. Especially coming from a startup where id be doing everything.
After having kids and changing my priorities a bit I've learned to just embrace it. I try do the least amount of work possible to be average or slightly above average on productivity.
It was my (admittedly ignorant) impression that C++ was preferred over garbage-collected languages because you'd be more likely to avoid GC pauses. Yes, of course I know that Go's is super efficient, but if you're doing a million trades a day even a tiny percentage of slowdowns that would be otherwise preventable could be a career-limiting move. Am I just behind the times?

When you search “scrolljacking” on HN, all of the posts are from 6-9 years ago. Most are 8-9 years old.

Is OP really still talking about scrolljacking with so much vehement in 2023?

yawn

Tbh, I haven’t even seen a site that scrolljacks in years. I definitely haven’t cared in years.

Also, this is what the HN guidelines say about this:

> Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—e.g. article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage. They're too common to be interesting.
Different contexts call for different approaches. "Write once, publish everywhere" is ideal for read-only content. For a social network that is user-centric/identity-focused (like Twitter), federation makes sense; for a social network that is "topic-centric" (like Reddit) you can just have individual forums like the old days.
I just use my domain with a simple frontend for links
> I might consider paying for premium if this wasn’t Google we’re talking about, which I imagine is tracking your viewing habits in their profile of you so they can serve targeted ads on other sites that use Google Ads.

So basically, you won't pay for premium because Google makes money by serving ads, but you also use an Adblocker (assumption)?
I truly hope you are right.
> If people are fine with telling Pocket what they read

I don't believe the ads shown in Firefox require sending any browsing history to the web (whether to Firefox or anyone else). The mechanism used here is different. I do agree with you that pushing ads into the browser chrome by default is abhorrent (a judgment compounded with the fact that they initially pretended that these weren't ads).

in what world does racket get classified as a 'small language'? it was one of the originals who focused on the 'batteries included' aspect for the sake of being more applicable in education.
Thanks for the answer — appreciated. We are currently looking at alternatives.
A lot of the AI doomerism comes from folks who do not understand the real complexities in making systems which really can function in a fully autonomous way in an environment which is hostile and dynamic

To be fair, a lot of those people take their cues from technologists who ostensibly know what they’re talking about.
thank you! yeah i guess its easier to iterate on a course than a book, but ofc we are also effecitvely writing and market testing the book contents. having written my own book before i'm not particularly keen on doing that again but am trying to work with partners to do this :)
I would estimate more like 20.
This reminds me of a softer version of the famous Bill Hicks standup routine on advertising that hilariously really pisses off people in advertising in Youtube comments. Advertising does a lot of good for the world according to people that majored in marketing. Alas, I have to agree with Bill on this one.

In some places local communities are also dependent on bottled water because their tap water isn't safely drinkable ... and it's not rare for Coca-Cola to own one of the major bottled water brands, as well as Coca-Cola being a popular drink itself. Everything I just described is true in Mexico for example.
Large technical solutions that don't directly impact individuals would be an easier 'sell'.

Like huge carbon sequestration efforts, or direct atmospheric remediation. Large public projects that 'create jobs' etc. Lots of positives to sell.

Boxed types in OCaml, and other thoughts
I came across an interesting fact about OCaml and wrote up my thoughts.
I can see how it would be difficult to evaluate empirically well. On the other hand, this describes my experience in one workplace extremely well over a period of extreme change. Even there, it was accompanied by changes in personnel but it described the process very well, and so I'm convinced it happens in certain settings at certain scales of social dynamics.

I'm not sure why it was posted on HN but it resonated with me. It seems not uncommon to see posts here pertaining to management and group dynamics people might want to be aware of, for whatever reason.

I assumed that some exchange provides enough volume that without it there would be worries that you aren't getting true price discovery. Isn't that a concern with low trading volume? Not that that would necessarily be true, but there would be enough concern to cause some people not to trade. And others to want to trade specifically with those kind of nervous people wouldn't because the people they expected to profit by were staying put. And then it would cascade.
It's not, if you consider his bio. He had a delusion that he could reform the USSR, make republics sign a new union treaty and maintain Russian dominance over Eastern Europe. Russia - leader, others - serfs who have only as much freedom as Moscow allows.

Instead, Eastern Europe ditched the Russian empire of misery on the first opportunity and never looked back, and that's what he was so bitter about. He hoped that the West would prop up his crumbling colonial empire.

When it comes to any clear assurances, even Gorbachev says NO. Is there anyone from the Soviet side who has actually confirmed it or is it pure western self-flaggelation?

Accessing medical cannabis is weird - each state has different access requirements and you must apply in the state(s) you practice in for permission (which isn’t hard) and then to the TGA for approval to prescribe.

The industry/clinic space is really bizzare.
I have been bombarded with requests to work as a telehealth prescriber. Because of the restricted product supply, ‘clinics’ are popping up to offer telehealth consults and then push their products.

There are multiple issues with this:

- the doctors doing the prescribing are often junior doctors, not GPs or pain specialists

- they have a limited supply of stock and no real understanding of ‘what is right when’

- pretty much all the stoners I know have now switched to medical marijuana (which is fine but for the next point)

- the TGA will at some point come down on doctors who are doing shitty consults and just writing the prescription with a cursory ‘whatever’ - because the TGA and medical board in this country are not as toothless as in the US

So basically anyone can get a prescription, and the clinics are pushing their own (or their own imported) product so they get fat margins, and there’s some médico-légal risk.

Over time (and even now) there are increasing numbers of GPs who can prescribe and there are websites that can point you to them which is what I’d recommend if you or a loved one actually has a medical condition, as opposed to just wanting to get stoned.

Those who want drugs can’t really get any drugs today. If I wanted to get meth I would have to talk to quite a few people at my local bar before I found someone to sell it. That’s a significant enough deterrent to me trying it that first time.

If you want a true analog take a look at Afghanistan where something like 20-30% of the population may be users. Or Native American reservations where banning alcohol has drastic reductions in crime and domestic abuse rates. Or Singapore that essentially has no junkies.
* sperm whale: yes, this can also exact puerile giggling from native speakers

* "You can't have your cake and eat it, too": might be better phrased as "can't eat your cake and have it, too". The idiom is stuck in its given form, however.

* blow job: I have read this etymologically arose from "below job". there are occasional humorous anecdotes related to native speakers misunderstanding it as well

* first off: never really thought about this before. I would suppose it comes from metaphorically popping the first of many arguments off of the speakers mental list.

* ladyfinger: it meant long like fingers, the lady part meant to indicate slender or delicate. there was a plant called ladyfingers as well
