Would a website where businesses recommend other businesses work?
For example a company wants to buy furniture for its office or want to hire a logo designer or want to hire an accounting firm... i guess it would be a great help if the company can find out what other similar companies are using.

> A modal log in screen is five elements: a shade, a dialog, two labels, two inputs and a button. These are all very easy to name.

Agreed. But why name them at all if the structure is so simple? Keep your simple, understandable structure, colocate your styles with tailwind classes, and avoid the unnecessary cognitive overhead of naming obvious things (is it .username or .user-name?) and linking them with remote styles in a different file.

Not saying it’s the “one true way”, but I don’t think your way is necessarily simpler.

Wow, apparently he's not wrong about the original eBay site being about ebola? He's wrong about the weird conspiratorial/xenophobic stuff of course, but it seems like the original eBay site probably had similar energy to this one:

"The eccentric engineer was obsessed with t he public-health system's inability to cope with large-scale health crises, particularly ebola It was around the time of the movie "Outbreak," so the idea of a pandemic was in a lot of people's minds.

After purchasing the domain ebay.com he filled the site with pages of ebola-related content.

So "e" stood for 'ebola,' and 'Bay' for 'Bay Area.'"

Yes, but it may mean that many people may be buying domains for the first time, and then realising that that opens the door to self hosting many other services.

Everything I listed at least claims to be a distributed database (also in the title of this article: "distributed sqlite").

However, Postgres is not and never claimed to be a distributed database, so you are erecting and attacking a strawman argument by choosing something that wasn't even in the list.
Well none of it is going to affect you personally so it makes sense. Grandma and grandpa were going to die sometime, and who cares if the grandchildren are going to have a hard existence because the world they will grow up in is much more harsher than ours? We probably won’t see substantial consequences of our actions in our lifetime, so why not YOLO? Only if there is really a God would we see any kind of punishment for this attitude.

But still, if you had some empathy for those who are older or much younger (not even born yet), their would be a lot of guilt in this thinking, the shame would be deserved.
>It's not the school's job to teach discipline. Removing them from the class puts the burden on the parents and the administration

No, all it does is make sure that any child with a bad home life has no future. Sure, it solves the "problem" of making one teacher manage 30 kids meaning one kid can DDoS the system but it does that by ignoring it all together.

Mom's a teacher, and "bad" kids LOVE her because she's extremely good at her job. Those bad kids pretty much universally just need attention because they get none in normal life. There are still occasionally young psychopaths but they generally do get expelled at some point. Otherwise most bad kids would come do their homework in her class because she was basically the only adult in the building they respected. She was literally "just" a french teacher but because she understands what it means to be a teacher she was an intervention for many a "bad" kid.

You want one bad kid to not spoil the bunch? Stop making undertrained, underpaid "teachers" without even an education degree oversee a class of 30 kids. How good could one person possibly manage 30 adults, let alone kids. Stop hiring glorified baby sitters because that's all you can get for $30k a year in salary. Stop treating teaching like a disposable profession.
Is this missing the /sarcasm?
> Are people with a pattern of disruptive, dysfunctional behavior allowed to be present in your workplace?

Yes, actually. The standard to fire people is high and HR wants these people constructively managed out rather than fired. This is incredibly common in large corporations.

Customers say they want a good support, but nobody buys a good support: customers buy cheap!

Ah, sorry. Didn't realize it was edited.
You don't lose the outputs, they just aren't committed into Git. So for each new clone, you'd need to regenerate the outputs, but on a single clone, the outputs exist and are persistent in the .ipynb form of the notebook (which is not committed). You are correct that the .py version of the notebook is exactly what Git ends up tracking, with the .ipynb being essentially a build product.

(Note that the jupytext paradigm does assume that the outputs can always be recomputed as a function of the inputs. I consider that a best practice, but some might disagree.)

How do you capture things like charts or tables produced from long-running notebooks? Do you have a separate system to keep track of these? I prize notebooks with outputs in our data science repo since I can see the results of our analyses years later without having to re-run the notebook. In some cases, the notebooks don't even run anymore since our environment has moved on, but I can still see the graphs and read the text that was associated with that analysis.
That's because of "zero-tolerance" policies, which never made any sense.
Maybe a shift in perspective might help. It sounds like people need a lot of help from you. I'd help them and do it in their preferred communication style, building relationships in the process. Then I'd show management how much I was doing this and use my newly strengthened relationships with the team as a foundation to ask for a significant promotion. View people reaching out to you (even if you think the request is silly) as an opportunity.
Pertaining to habits, this stuck with me from James Clear's Atomic Habits [1]:

Self replying with another thought: I always find it remarkable when really young founders (like college-age) are successful, because they lack so much understanding about the world, business, people, etc. BUT they likely have a great deal more curiosity and drive than older folks.

Maybe there's some sweet spot, where founders have enough real-world experience to understand how the world works, and how to build things, but are still curious and driven enough to jump off and try.

Past that point, I fear that curiosity starts declining even as competence increases - say, when you're 50, will you get the feeling you 'know' the world in-and-out, you 'know' there's no easy opportunities... and besides, you have a teenager-filled family, a mortgage, etc all of which perhaps stifle really broad-ranging curiosity not least because your time has more demands on it.

There's a leap of trust needed, as we'd be putting our google credentials into it, but I guess that's par for the course for what is kind of a jailbreak.

Looking at this as an example: https://github.com/WSA-Community/WSAGAScript
There's this anecdote (which might have been made up entirely to make a point):

Restaurant management wanted to compare different soup offerings by counting orders from each soup to determine which ones were more popular. They have selected the most popular two offerings, the rest were scrapped in order to safe money on ingredients. Soon after, not only did the order numbers of those two soup offerings drop, the total number of soup orders dropped. How come? Well, maybe nobody has asked the customers if the offered soup was tasty at all. A quick survey revealed that customers make the popular choice, find out it's crap, and then do not ever order soup again in that restaurant, or in rarer cases give the other one a shot. It turned out, the most popular offer was basically cheap crap nobody wanted to eat, and when there's nothing else, they keep ordering the same, or never visit that restaurant again.

Do you think the Firefox plugin for 1password (random example) is a plugin that runs inside 1password and allows you to use Firefox? Does the Linux driver for ext4 allow you to use a Linux kernel from within the driver, or the other way around? WSA is a "Windows subsystem" that allows you to run Android. That's it. But leave it to HN to always have someone make the exact same comment whenever WSL or WSA is mentioned.
I gave this a quick try, and my first impression is that they've whitelisted games above a certain popularity or monetization level.

On my phone, Google Play library shows about 50 games that I've ever installed which are compatible on my phone and available to reinstall. On the PC, the library is showing exactly one available game.

They have 15 game categories and maybe average 10 games per category. Most of these are ones I've seen advertised, am not seeing anything that looks low budget.

Maybe the next update of Android Studio will let you pick "PC" as a supported platform. There's no ".apk" in my Windows file associations, so maybe no way to sideload things?
The finding was not statistically or clinically significant.
Yes and no. You can utilize ML to do 90% of the work in preparing an input, then have a human verify to ensure it's correct. It's similar to how ML models are starting to consume ML generated artwork, which people think is bad, but in reality those ML generated artworks are the ones humans found good enough to publish online, so they still retain value for training (as being appealing to humans).

《SPOILERS 》There is some idea that if conceived can destroy you. Greco wants to use it to attack the protagonist. The protagonist defends himself by delaying his perception and passing all inputs through a simulated concept so that when Greco communicates the idea it would destroy the sandbox and not himself. But Greco never tells the protagonist the idea. It just lets the protagonist formulate it themselves as a reaction to all the triggers Greco planted beforehand.

PSA, the same applies to Twitter. The code Twitter have open-sourced doesn't include the machine learning neural networks they use to rank tweets, which is by far the largest indicator for ranking together with direct engagement.

In other words, take this tweet by Elon Musk as... well... most of his tweets. Doing PR selling a flashy, idealized story, that falls apart behind the flimsy façade. Sure, algorithms mean we can be manipulated. And this applies to all mainstream social networks.

Various levels of offsite construction (below the highway lane size limit components of course) exists for decades, in many contries, since at least the 60s, some died, some flourished. Of course this is still requiring considerable amount of onsite assembly and finishing off but still, manufacture component and delivery on trailers is a traditional concept already, the resons for less (as there are some) startups in construction need to be looked for elsewhere than onsite/offsite reasons.

Should you look at the fragmented composition of participating professions, fragmented nature of players and organizations involved, the fragmented and fluid supply chain, all combined with the long realization phase and complicated responsibility (legal) relationships of the actors perhaps? Generic contracting is more like a conductor role for the numerous groups involved, be it joined or independent ventures, than a subject of startup 'disruption'. Management, including financial.

Sub tasks will see some unicorns, but not much though, mostly in software area. The opensystemslab.io comes to mind as one construction adjacent one concerning the structral components mostly, but with systematic vision and novel mentality.

> I wonder why they chose such an unrepresentative dataset size, ~84MB.

Yo. This is me. The point of this paper was to evaluate the core MVCC algorithms under different contention scenarios. So you strip out all the internal features of the system that can influence performance that are unrelated to the experiments. This ensures that you can make it a true apples-to-apples comparison. And since everything is in memory, you don't need a large data set.

IIRC, we ran ran the same experiments with 100m tuples instead of 10m and it did not change the results.
