Didn't read the article but here's an explanation and why I did it all my life:

Narrowed passage. Somewhere at the front of my main nasal cavity, the passage is narrower
than it needs to be for the amount of air I'm breathing in through the nose.

Didn't know until my late twenties.

Nothing helps, no cream, no spray, no nutritional changes.

What makes it slightly better is lifting (wrinkling) my forehead or widening the nostrils.

So I either pick my nose or don't get enough air into my nasal cavity and they get dry, making the need to pick my nose more necessary.

Not doing it leads to head aches, tics, tensions, dissociative anaesthesia and sensory loss.

Which is why focusing on my breath doesn't cut it by itself. Which is my meditation was a nuisance.

Surgery in Germany costs about 2500 €, which isn't much but finding a good surgeon is freaking annoying because everybody is lying and nobody admits shit.
Why can't I train my calves?

I also hope the prompt to select "what do you want to use" is changed to "what equipment do you have".
It is simply glorious to watch how it is all imploding for Twitter of late and their egomaniac CEO Elon.

The power is with the people and not billionaires - it seems if your product stinks and a viable alternative comes along, that they will jump ship.
> I've just been using Jekyll since 2013. For a long time now Github has had first-class support for Jekyll and so I haven't even had to mess with Ruby for many years now, I usually just edit it online in the Github UI. I pay $0 a year for this service so my only cost is DNS.

Jekyll remains one of the most robust solutions for small projects and blogs.
How exactly is it a political problem?

As if it ever worked properly on X. I’m sure every professional used linux for tasks requiring color accuracy.
I sometimes wonder how Elon Musk would be as a person if he hadn’t become filthy rich.

Does being the richest man on the planet just enable his craziness, or did it cause it?

But then I let go of that thought, because I don’t want to give a petulant man-child who is apparently proposing literal dick measuring contests any more attention than they already get.
Why anything at all needs to be web3.
You have to ask yourself this question.
It’s quite a deep rabbit hole - you have to understand some economics and governance in macro in order to see the value.
The other way to see the value is if you are unbanked - like a large percentage of the world. If you are in this group, then blockchain technology (and crypto) is a life changer.
I am an outside observer but in any discussion of Wayland I always see this article referenced: https://gist.github.com/probonopd/9feb7c20257af5dd915e3a9f2d...

It seems like so much stuff is broken but the devs deny it is broken? And even with that situation - every major distro is making in roads to adopting it?

Is that a fair characterisation or am I off the mark?
And with a 287, Weitek or DSP32 you could even get fairly decent floating point performance (for the time, and the budget).
I use Timescale and I can recommend it. The reason why I'm still using influx too (1.7) is because it's unmatched in its data storage efficiency and query performance. You can get close with Timescale, but its main power is having the query power of PostgreSQL, if you have room for the extra hardware resources it requires.
There is a great book called _Style: Towards Clarity and Grace_. Any of Joseph Williams' other books will do if you can't get hold of that.
> He basically notes that D had a slightly nicer chain rule if you write D'f(a)= (f(a), Df(a)) and use D' instead.

That much I understood myself.

> His description of reverse mode AD is more complicated

And that's where I got lost in the weeds.

I'm sure if I could be bothered, I could sit down for a few weeks or months and gain a working understanding of Category Theory.

My point is not whether I understand or don't understand CT, but... what's the point of spending effort in understanding it?

The CT of forward and reverse mode Automatic Differentiation is cute, but it doesn't seem to have had much practical application in precisely the area where CT ought to be useful.

I mean... both reverse and forward mode AD existed before it was labelled using CT terminology. What did CT add to the SOTA for AD?
Not disagreeing with you but what's interesting is that C++ doesn't hide in this particular situation. Smart pointers implement operator-> and operator* but then ptr.foo() is still always the foo() method of the pointer type (and won't compile if it doesn't have it) - you need ptr->foo() or (*ptr).foo() to get the method of the pointed-to type.

It's one of the few places that C++ is more explicit than Rust. I wonder if there's a reason Rust went a different way? I'm mainly a C++ programmer so I'm genuinely curious.
It's a consequence of scale. Beyond a critical mass of complexity, it becomes more work to envision the moving parts and orchestrate changes among them, than writing the code itself.

Personally, I think most software systems could accept fewer moving parts if we allowed certain tradeoffs, and the benefit would be much more empowered engineers.

No one “pushes” wayland, it is just infeasible to make people work on a legacy and fundamentally broken codebase in their spare time.

Feel free to set up a fund and sponsor X11 maintenance - there is surely a price where people will start working on it.
I know this breaks the rules by being needlessly snarky as well as not adding anything whatsoever to the conversation. Will remove if anyone is annoyed by this, just felt the need to type it out.
"Also, why would someone like you even go to the store;"

Errrr, because I'm out shopping? And the store is located in a shopping centre amongst other stores where I'm buying things. I fully realise I can buy online, but I can buy vinyl records, sofas, groceries and shoes online, yet I'm often in the mood to walk in somewhere where they have those things available for sale and buy one. It can actually be quicker and easier.
> Which PFAS? At what concentrations? What's the effect size? QALY loss per person affected?

These are great questions, and maybe they should have all gotten conclusive answers before they are introduced to the market.

Prove that your crap is safe, before you sell it.
Don't forget rewriting the code in Rust because it's faster and type safe! Or nodejs with typescript because it's type safe
I just self host Ghost, super easy. Don't even need analytics tbh.
The problem is that many CT proponents have stated this, but not provided anything other than toy examples, or Haskell libraries that nobody uses outside of the CT crowd.

To reiterate my analogy with String Theory: it has yielded a lot of very useful mathematics... for more String Theories.
Market value != worth, unless you believe that market capitalism is the only way to determine worth

The value of those houses (as a place to live) is $0 to anyone who cares about not consuming PFAS, and thus should be $0 until the problem is fixed. I guess you can rent them out to people you don’t care about, which would make them worth >$0, but also clearly unethical.

In a society that’s functioning correctly, sane people would pass a law prohibiting consumption of water with PFAS; those houses would be declared uninhabitable, the same way a fire marshal now can declare a building uninhabitable as it violates a fire code.

Here are a few that an organization would be able to work on right now according to the researchers at Charity Entrepeneurship. They might even take less than a decade to solve if things go well:

1. An organization that addresses antimicrobial resistance by advocating for better (pull) funding mechanisms to drive the development and responsible use of new antimicrobials.

2. An advocacy organization that promotes academic guidelines to restrict potentially harmful “dual-use” research.

3. A charity that rolls out dual HIV/syphilis rapid diagnostic tests, penicillin, and training to antenatal clinics, to effectively tackle congenital syphilis at scale in low-and middle-income countries.

4. An organization that distributes Oral Rehydration Solution and zinc co-packages to effectively treat life-threatening diarrhea in under five year olds in low-and middle-income countries.

5. A charity that builds healthcare capacity to provide “Kangaroo Care”, an exceptionally simple and cost-effective treatment, to avert hundreds of thousands of newborn deaths each year in low-and middle-income countries.

6. An organization that aims to reduce stock-outs of contraceptives and other essential medicines by improving the way they are delivered and managed within public health facilities.

SRTM's FAQ shows that the argumentation in the article is backwards.

Did the radar sample the tops of trees or the ground level?

The radar does not "see" through thick vegetation canopies. It probably penetrated a little way into some canopies, but in general it followed near the top of the canopy.

Did the radar signal bounce off treetops, or topography, or some combination of both that will provide separate data sets (geodesists like myself care about topography, whereas scientists more interested in forestry care about the height of the canopy).

Unfortunately, the wavelength used, 5.6 centimeters, didn't penetrate vegetation very well. That means, for moderate-heavy vegetation, we mapped near the canopy top. We did penetrate a little, as some studies comparing our technique with laser altimeters showed, but not to the ground. If the vegetation was sparse, or had no leaves, we might get a return from the ground. The Vegetation Canopy Lidar, scheduled to fly as part of the Earth Observing System, will have this capability, which may provide some interesting data-set comparisons.

This is a strawman. There's a reason I mentioned color management in particular. Most people who aren't aware (even software developers) tend to make two assumptions:

- that color management is needed for a tiny subset of users (those weird guys with printers and calibrators...).

- that it can be delegated to 3rd parties or implemented later when the time comes.

Neither of that is true. Color management is just another word for correct rendering of everything that comes through your stuff. Every pixel must have a well defined path from the physical input to the application to the physical output, you can't just implement a part of it and move everything else out of scope. To display anything in HDR, you have to build your entire pipeline around color management from the ground up.

The reason you are ignoring it is that you're using an sRGB display, in any other case it would be immediately apparent to you. sRGB also needs color management but everything assumes sRGB so you're able to mostly get away with it. This no longer holds in the modern hardware. You need a properly managed pipeline for gaming, movies, web, YouTube, GUI, smartphone family photos, and basically everything else.

Wayland developers actually found it the hard way, and are trying to implement it for, what, 3 years? That this wasn't a feature of a display server protocol from the start is a massive design flaw.

Same with the input methods handling being forced to be lumped up together in the downstream software, without at least specifying how it should be done. They took a well understood problem, and moved it out of scope; it might not have been an issue, but the lack of a spec will lead to fragmentation and less options. This affects most of the userbase, not "weirdos with remote desktops".

See my edit, I think this is just a confusion of terminology. I wouldn't really refer to someone whose position being made redundant as "getting fired", there's very different procedures to be followed and it has very different implications.
Probably both.

Having been there, managing a development team with more than 2-3 hours difference is a real pain, especially if peak usage is not in the developers' time zone. It's almost always a cost saving measure (off shoring).

Add to that the exorbitant salaries of Bay area developers and it's pretty much a no-brainer. In my personal/anecdotal experience, Italian developers are about the same as US developers, even if Italian management is a different story;-)
Worth noting that this is hitting Alpha in Kubernetes 1.28, so won't be available by default at this stage.

If you've got self-managed clusters, it'd be possible to enable with a feature gate on the API server, but it's unlikely to be available on managed Kubernetes until it gets to GA.
Something like this is definitely needed. I like how you start by selecting what you have access to.

It would be great if a yoga mat were another option. Then you could link to videos of yoga moves, just as you do with other exercises.
At first I thought no way it can be so low, but 99.5k views since 2017 is indeed around 50 views per day. For 400 euros and all this effort... I get similar hits on a free neocities site with zero effort put into search indexing, styling, usability or promotion. Crazy how views add up, just looking at the 99k number I’d think it’s huge!

I don't really think you're contradicting me? If you, as a company, want to get rid of a group of staff because you think you're spending too much money on wages, you phrase that in a more palatable way, probably involving the word "strategic", and you give them what they're owed according to their contract. That sounds very straight-forward to me.

The thing that's possible in America and arguably not possible in Europe is to just show someone the door on the spot. And sure, it's easy on companies if they're able to just put a post-it on the door one morning that tells your now former employees they can go home because you don't want to pay them anymore. But I don't think what you're describing can reasonably be termed "not possible".

EDIT - Point taken about the terminology. I'm talking about any sort of "you won't be working here anymore" situation.
Off topic, but it's very interesting to observe the ratio of upvotes / comments.

On any given chatGPT topic, there are hundreds of comments usually. Here, so far 100 upvotes, only 7 comments.

The book looks great - and given the authors, it almost certainly is (I will buy it for sure). It makes me think though about the state of 'ML / AI / Data Science' - and the cynic part of me thinks that this upvotes / comments ratio kind of reflects the fact that most people interested in AI hype have not really touched a lot of underlying concepts and don't have any deeper understanding of maths / stats behind.

PS. That being said, I didn't do a meaningful comment on the link topic neither.
They seem to list ~ 50k as the bottom range on their site
That would need a response from the site devs.

No, I found an exception: cheesoisseur - that is, cheese appreciator. At least in my experience.

From years 0 to 25 I kept my taste in cheese simple. Then, one day at 25 I went to a wedding and tasted a couple strong cheeses that carved a path in my neurons for the rest of my life: Epoisses, Cabrales, Stilton, Queijo Serra da Estrela.

I've been enjoying that stuff for 20 years now. Some of the cheeses are somehow expensive but nothing stupid if compared to gadgets, audiophile equipment, wine or clothing brands.

I can buy 250gr Epoisses at £8, 10$ USD, or 9.5 EUR at a couple major supermarkets in the UK. And let me tell you, all I need in life is a long run in the morning and eating Epoisses at any point in the day. That's the description of heaven to me... the rest is superfluous.

"The company says the step is intended to “boost operational efficiency and to make the most of the Bending Spoons employer brand, which is extremely strong in Europe.”

I do find surprisingly that they said that their brand is strong in Europe. Personally, I discovered Bending Spoons during the pandemic because they gifted the italian government of a Contact Tracing app, that ultimately never worked. I guess that from their point of view it was mainly a marketing initiative. However I don't see their brand as something to be considered strong in Europe in my perspective and by looking at their website the first thing that comes into mind is a glorified sort of software agency.

They're not paid overtime, because they're not paid by the hour.
> If you don't recognize lapcat, you haven't been reading a lot of macOS articles on HN.

I read plenty of macOS articles here. I'm sure I've run across them. They're neither memorable enough nor important enough for me to pick them out from one user or another. And for them to assume that importance would make them far more arrogant to me (and many others) than the "mansplainer" (no matter if they're in the wrong, which I happened to agree that they were).

> Also, "mansplaining" probably just meant "giving unwanted advise about a topic they only have superficial knowledge of".

I could pick up the context of their intention. It's still extremely odd to use a politically and emotionally overloaded word with a specific meaning that clearly doesn't apply here. OP could be a woman themselves, for all we know. The explainer wasn't talking down to lapcat out of an assumed lack of knowledge based on their gender; they were just talking with a general lack of knowledge on the subject, which is pretty common on the internet.

The "starting point for discussion" is surely the intended and expected value of the trolley problem. But it's probably reasonable to point out that the moral/ethical decisions that we most often have to make on a day to day basis almost never involve having to decide who lives and who dies - which we should be profoundly grateful for!
