I don't think that the commenter expected her to know Excel, but the tone of her response especially where she started saying "I don't care" can be reasonably interpreted as dismissive and defensive to the point of being proud, which is really odd because it's not like people are blaming her for the production crew's mistake?

Not knowing computers at this day and age (or whenever that video was shot which seems recent) is not a cool thing to celebrate, because the most basic computer skills are now as important as knowing how to drive. But I really think that more than a criticism of her intelligence, people really are criticizing her character. She could have handled this more gracefully by laughing it off, because it is laughable.

How to Identify “Truthy” Tech Trends
As i said in my comment I personally want to run (some) things on bare metal, and Qubes is not good for that, which is good for their security model but is a deal breaker for me.
Interesting, thank you for the rec.

I need to actually try Fennec one of these days instead letting it sit on my phone.

I still don't exactly trust these builds since they are small fries and I imagine not a ton of people are combing the code to make sure data isnt getting logged somewhere. They are great for browsing the internet, but I typically don't put passwords in them.

I use DDG for that.

I have personally found that "being out more" doesn't help with it at all. The accidents happen in unexpected places and times. Going "out" mostly gets you the "usual" activities - where you are almost guaranteed to not find anything like that.

Yeah, the internet has been a blessing in the past in terms of socialisation, but nowadays, it has made it even worse than before. IRL activities are dying because everyone is on social media - but not spending any time with each other, just scrolling alone. I find it very sad.

With that being said, if you want to chat, I'd be happy to :)
I've been using this to play a silly japanese arcade game, Gundam Extreme Vs. Full Boost -- with my friends, online, over an emulated PSN. Worked immediately on all our PCs. Some random guy even joined our lobby one time. Tested it and Tekken Tag Tournament 2 also worked online. Walked away unbelievably impressed, tbqh.

I wouldn’t throw out the baby with the bath water. There are good and bad “UX folks.” Just like there are good and bad developers. You just need to keep the bad ones away from your project.

When you’re looking for a “UX expert” and they are showing you their portfolio, ask them to show how their apps look on a phone in landscape orientation or over a slow dial-up connection, or how their designs work with a screen reader, or for a colorblind user. If they say “oh, that’s a problem for the Accessibility team,” RUN away from that candidate!

I was raised the same way, and the drawback is that anything nuclear gets tarred with the same brush. We're paying for that in carbon now, as will our grandchildren's grandchildren.
I am close to never having used a central-platform social media site. I had a Facebook account for a few months about ten years ago because the manager of a project I was working on insisted that we use it to communicate. I closed down the account soon after the project finished. I have never had an account on MySpace, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.

The one exception, perhaps surprisingly, is Instagram. About eight or nine years ago, my daughter was starting out as a freelance illustrator, and I was fascinated with how she and other illustrators shared ideas and learned from each other through Instagram. It seemed like a new form of culture propagation. For a year or two, I posted my own music and photographs to an Instagram account that I set up under a pseudonym. I never got any engagement from it, but I started following some people who posted content that was interesting to me. I continue to follow twenty or thirty accounts and enjoy checking them every day or two, but I stopped posting myself a long time ago and my account continues to be under the pseudonym, so I don’t think it really counts as social media use.

Not really. US copyright law is based around protecting the rights to use a "work", but European copyright law tends to protect the originator. It might seem similar, but in practice it is not.

"Fair use" as an example, does not exist in the way defied in the US in the UK. We have "fair dealing" and it is a lot more specific. There are defined use-case exceptions to copyright, it is not "do what you like, claim 'fair use' and take it down when you get a DMCA notice".
Performance is vastly helped just by not having a fragmented ecosystem or a moving target. If I know all my customers are running my software on the exact same hardware, I can optimise the hell out of my software, and also I can see
exactly how it will perform for the end user and polish the worst bits until either it's shiny enough for me or I run out of budget.

If every single user has a different setup with components chosen from a vast array of possibilities that can all do different sets of things at different speeds... well, I can get it to work on my machine, and I can try and guess what to degrade when things get bad, but ultimately I just have to throw it over the wall and hope it's not too terrible in the wild. It's impressive, really, that PC desktop games work as well as they do.
Interesting, my contacts are mostly in Romania, Estonia, Latvia and Poland, and mostly IT savvy (as users, not programmers), so the latter could well be a factor.
There's a difference between constructive and necessary feedback delivered discretely, and destructive unnecessary feedback deliverd in public. Do you think this public statement is going to be more effective than a serious considered conversation with senior management before he left? I don't think so.

Soft landing? No, they haven’t even come down to 10,000 feet and are nowhere near a runway.

Where we are right now is an unhealthy stasis with inflation well above 2%. And low unemployment due to a disabled workforce.

All they are doing is delaying the inevitable. If inflation is to go down anywhere near 2%, then the Fed has the raise rates.
ZFS compresses records (blocks) independently.
Ask HN: What's your favourite way to store/host <1KB of state on the Web?
I do a lot of web-based hobby/fun apps/games for fun. An issue I keep running into is preserving basic state (eg. progress, save data, etc.) It's always tiny: <1KB. I could use `localstorage` but I want to share that state across devices.

Because these are toys, I don't need security, backups, scale, or size. Which makes almost any choice I professionally know about feel like overkill. I do not want to have to worry about or maintain a web server.

I feel like I am looking for a service something like this:

1. Make an account and receive a token.

2. Embed the token in my game.

3. Use the token to make GET and POST to the service.

4. Don't abuse it or my token gets rescinded and now nobody can access their high scores or whatnot.
No, they literally cannot. The current OpenZFS codebase is the combination of the original Sun/Oracle-owned code and a massive number of new committers. Now, Oracle could relicense the original code, but they can't do anything about the later additions, because they don't own the copyright on those. The only maybe possible carve out is if the code is licensed with something like "CDDL 1.0 or later" then they could make a new version, but I'm not clear on whether that's an option or whether the code is licensed CDDL 1.0-only. IANAL, YMMV. (EDIT: Apparently the CDDL already has a version 1.0 and 1.1? So take exact versions with a grain of salt above.)
> That's false. On social media, everyone is free to follow just the people they want to follow. Muting is also an option.

This right here shows why you don´t understand why instance-wide blocking might be needed.

I can give you one clear example: my instance is running in Germany. As such, I need to comply with German laws. Now, if anyone from my instance follows someone from a "free speech extremist" instance and my server ends up with Nazi propaganda, guess who will be under investigation?

Substitute "Nazi propaganda" for "instances for sex-workers who might be victims of people trafficking" if you prefer.

> Yes, that's possible in China as well.

No, it's not. The Chinese police will come after you if you try to organize any type of opposition and they will have the power to hurt you without a fair trial.

As well as "perspective" as in linear perspective, the word can also mean something like a way of considering or understanding something [1]. I suspect the article's title may be a play on these complementary meanings.

> This is wrong. Birds fly, fishes swim. There is nothing bad about either.

I have a hard time with this mentality. I would have agreed a few years ago perhaps, and do still agree that we all have our own aptitudes, but the level of absolution in a statement like this just isn’t really quite as applicable to humans in my opinion. There are things I never thought I’d be capable of that I’ve recently begun to excel at.

What I thought was a hardware limit turned out to just bug in my psycho-software that needed a patch. Obviously at the extreme end’s of the spectrum, the human hardware limit is very real. But for most (healthy) people, engaging in most activities, I believe that any perceived immutable barriers or obstacles are almost entirely psychological.
Something to note is that the Fed didn't come up with 2%. They cribbed it off the bank of New Zealand two and a half decades ago. 2% might be untenable in a macro with a shrinking working force due to structural demographics (55+ participation is what is holding up US participation rate currently, and those people retire and die every day). The future is unable to repeat the past. 3-4% is probably more reasonable imho. Raising rates forever when you can't get to 2% because of fundamentals is unproductive.

Wut? Please prove this assertion wrt the use of the word "high." [1] That's arguably a call for stronger social safety nets [2], not more disabled employment. At least a lot of these folks are able to be on Medicare ("Half of all persons with a disability were age 65 and over, nearly three times larger than the share for those with no disability.") and Social Security.

afaik the person you replied to is wrong, using System.arrayCopy would definitely make a copy and not be optimized away.

Maybe poster meant only copying the reference with `char[] copy = original` which indeed does nothing, but that's not a defensive copy.

Bcachefs isn’t ready for prime time. I’m reasonably sure it’s better designed than Btrfs, and it’ll get there, but don’t do it yet. If Ubuntu becomes a problem, NixOS has 100% support for ZFS.

"Inflation is down" is ridiculous spin. No, the rate of increase of inflation is down. Oh, and the last several years of insane inflation still happened. Nothing has changed or improved. Recently, I paid almost seven dollars for a single box of Raisin Bran from a large grocer.
I prefer graphical interfaces to declarative languages with escape hatches to a lower level form. I don't like what can go wrong with declarative tools or APIs that are too high level.

Don't get me wrong, SQL is brilliant, but I feel like when the complexity of the underlying system is high, declarative approaches become scarier and scarier. If something goes wrong or doesn't do what I need all those elided things are no longer elided and I'm now at the mercy of understanding all of it with no escape other than to upstream a change, kill a project, or change technologies.

The Linux ecosystem is insane, but so is every software technology of sufficient size. I sincerely do not need my downloading of some tool I've never used to be reproduced, more than likely I will uninstall it after a half hour of playing with it. Or if I. In a dire situation, pin a version

The fact C++ has so many ways of defining things is not the reason it's so popular. The reason is the enormous industry investment on the language tooling and ecosystem. IMO the language itself is the worst part of the ecosystem, but the other parts create a totality that is the best development language ecosystem in industry for my niche (graphics and geometry) including libraries, copmpilers, debugger & profiling etc.

Any language with the level of industrial support C++ has had would have grown to prominence. C++ came abut a judicious time in history when "object orientation" was becoming the latest buzzword. And now we have ended up with gazillions of lines of C++ code.

It's a tragedy of our trade that two mongrels - C++ and Javascript - became to be among the most prominent in our trade.

I think what we'll likely see is that it's (relatively) easy to get PS5 games running in a PC emulator, but running them _well_ will take ages. Primarily because PCs will have to be able to out-horsepower the PS5 by a wide margin to make up for things like the shared memory setup, texture streaming stuff, etc.

MoM numbers can be bumpy and bounce around a bit every month regardless. YoY numbers smooth out that bumpiness.

It's very possible that next month we see numbers go up, which would make this report an outlier, and the YoY numbers more accurate.

Oh good we have StackExchange being used as a legal authority.
I’ve never used any of the ones you mention, aside from LinkedIn as you say.

There are different reasons in each case. E.g. Twitter’s short message limit seemed guaranteed to produce what it did, compared to e.g. Usenet or HN. Facebook originally seemed to me like a way to publish on the web for people who didn’t know how, like Geocities. MySpace seemed to be for teenagers. All of these were reasons not to use them initially, but over time nothing changed in a positive enough direction to change my mind.
We bought a kid's universal remote from Argos, with big colourful buttons, then I put together an Arduino-based gizmo which received button presses from the new remote, and played macros of button presses to the TV and set top box. It worked up to a point, but of course it's defeated by any buttons whose meanings are affected by state - the button which toggled between the TV's internal tuner and the AV input was a particular problem.
And do what in that scenario? Do you cold-chat (like cold call I guess) people?
Yes. I just missed it. I guess I have a mental block against having utmost respect for rapists.
Quantity is massively more important, to the point that you get much better results by using a larger dataset with machine generated labelling (or object detection if that's what you're building) than using a smaller one with even expert labelling.

That said, if you've got a million photos you could probably do some pretty interesting things with very large scale fine tuning, or if you know many other people who have similar stockpiles of photos you may be able to get an entry-level dataset together if you all pool it.
Actually I'm shocked things are moving as fast as they are. I expect bcachefs to eventually end up in mainline, but only taking 2ish releases worth of time to do it would be a (pleasant!) surprise. Exciting times:)
I recently purchased an old Guitar Hero controller and connected it to RPCS3 emulating Rock Band 3. It worked shockingly well. It felt like playing on a real PS3.

You answered your own question, one of the ways is to "adjust for consumer preferences" the goods baskets You can also change the weights for various localities or overstate how much better the new version of a product is and reduce its weight.

Fundamentally the BLS in the US has no incentive to accurately report inflation. They are a department of the executive with no real safeguards against political influence. Reducing the official CPI reduces the government's expenditure and understating inflation is a great way to do so without officially cutting any budget item.

Further, see my sister comment to yours, inflation is personal, a country-wide single-number inflation measure is broken by design.

While that is good advice, it can't apply to mutable input. Unless a defensive copy is made (at least, under the current system), concurrent modification can still occur. The new type's underlying data is still being accessed.
To glibly answer your question: favorite way? In the "usercloud" (as a cookie).

But more in depth, it's a good question!

You could get innovative and use localstorage combined with WebRTC to create a p2p storage "mesh". :)

Honestly tho I would use GitHub gists. They have an API. There's a token you can get. You could use whatever storage format you want (JSON anyone? Blah, why not just use malbolge).

Or if you're doing gists, why not go the whole nine gits? Depending on what your game runs on, you could just use git, to a shared repository, on GitHub.
Different humans (in the 90th percentile at least, to eliminate the extreme outliers) are not equipped so vastly differently for mathematics or athletic activity as fish and birds. Thinking that some people can fly and some can swim and that’s just that seems very reductive.
