Oddly enough, their license which prohibits any sort of standard corporation setup from hosting or making copies of the software, would seem to prohibit their own source code being on their own Github.

It also rules out Gitlab.

I suspect they can not use any commercial host such as AWS or OVH either.

As a self hoster, I don't think even I would be able to host this - I use cloudflare and would be sending source code materials to be copied by cloudflare.
Prediction markets could help.[0] If you create a financial incentive to evaluate probabilities more accurately (conversely, expensive to manipulate), and force market participants to come to an agreement, then people who are seemingly confident could "put their money where their mouth is" quite literally, or admit that they were bullshitting in the first place.

There's also the opportunity to use prediction markets to hold policymakers accountable.[1] Claiming you can reduce emissions by X year is easy, but what's harder is convincing a prediction market to agree with the statement "If X is implemented, will X policy lower emissions by 10% by the year Y?"

Before March, sure no we did not. But by mid-late 2020, yes we did. But lockdowns continued well into 2021. We had studies to determine the infection fatality rates in mid-late 2020: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7947934/

Ionnadis was slammed for claiming such a low IFR of 0.27%. But later studies have since reaffirmed his estimates: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9613797/ Even when restricting the analysis to the period before vaccinations, the IFR was between 0.3% and 0.4%. Ionnadis was way closer to the mark than the claims of 1.0 or 1.5% IFR that were common at the time.
They do offer solutions near the end of the article, but they seem counterproductive.

E.g. the preprint server that allows alternate languages states that:

> The reliance on English language publications to communicate scientific findings is clearly a hindrance to the open sharing of scientific knowledge

But wouldn’t the hindrance be much stronger if you’re writing a paper exclusively in a language like Portuguese instead of English?
r/patientgamers sounds like the community for you
I worked at a publicly traded company where everyone internal had knowledge of product releases with Apple. It was a trading frenzy with open discussion of trading decisions that predictably paid off. I remember it distinctly because it was right after company-wide training on insider trading with talks of prison time etc before our discounted stock grants. All it did was teach people how to conduct insider trading. The training was considered all that was needed for compliance. Zero enforcement, insider trading is the default. Humans cannot resist.
That sounds ironic as kangaroo’s predators were predated (“culled”) by humans.
Why is it rubbish?

It is useful for there to be some lingua franca. There are arguments for why English is a good candidate:
- already widely spoken
- economically important
- simple word morphology
- no grammatical gender
- an alphabetic writing system that is relatively easy to learn

There are reasons why it is a bad candidate:
- terrible spelling for an alphabetic writing system
- definite articles, which confuse speakers of languages which lack them
- arguable unnecessary tense and aspect distinctions
- obligatory gender in animate pronouns

In any case, it's what we've got.

But it is also true that communicating professionally in a language you learned for that purpose imposes a burden that native speakers don't face. If you find it boring to read attempts to quantify this, maybe this article isn't for you.
Yeah, I remember liking tachyons but whats it doing on the front page?
Codey is available in the Google Cloud console now.
Why do you think this? There are vastly more English speakers than Mandarin worldwide [1] and China is now only the second most populous country, overtaken by India. English is an official language of India and while not pervasively spoken overall, is pervasively spoken by the educated classes.

I think Mandarin will have a hard time increasing its sphere of influence, despite what cyberpunk authors may have predicted 30 years ago.

That's my thinking too, but I am left wondering if athletes with this implant will be able to pull riskier corners knowing that their knees are unlikely to give this time.

I look forward to finding out either way
Anxiety / meltdowns: We got some over the ear passive noise cancelling headphones for my daughter (who is moderately autistic and what you wrote would be a perfect description of her as well). They're lifesavers in public places like restaurants and stores. We have her on a pretty regimented schedule to try to minimize unexpected transitions. This helps her focus and really helps her sleep. What kind of therapists is she working with? Our daughter is diagnosed with moderate ASD and has therapy for ABA, Speech, and OT. She's 4.5 years old. We found a "sensory room" in the house is an incredible place for her to self sooth and calm down.

Sleeping: not a ton of good options. We frequently are up with her at odd hours. I'll bring her upstairs and we will watch Cocomelon at 3am for 30-45 minutes. I'll spend time sitting and reading with her as well. We often try to "wear her out" before bed by just playing a lot for a few hours before or after dinner. The hatch[1] was recommended by her ABA therapist, but we've not yet purchased it.

The implementation is really not complicated, though it’s hardly great if you expect it to be performant: reqwest just creates a tokio runtime, schedules the task on it, waits for completion, then tears it down.

It’s repetitive but it’s simple.

Sure there is. But that isn't the case that interests me. The case that I find interesting is the one where there is a 'right' solution that you can find quickly and an even better one that will take some more time and a more thorough approach.

As a society we seem to value the quickly found ones over the ones that are found through a more contemplative process that requires some more time. And this means we may be throwing out some good stuff for the wrong reasons.
Nature is really good at giving you a spec with examples and guidelines you need to adhere to

This has ended up being my approach as well. Yes, I object to spending $20/m on the surface, but it ends up being far less than the time I'd spend trying to do it all myself. It also lets my wife pick whatever ridiculous show she wants to watch without me being the gatekeeper who has to get it for her.
That's essentially what professional comedians do.

I guess some sectors care about having a compiler that conforms to some sort of ISO standards. This doesn't really tell me what that means but I know that I'm not the target.
It really was a demo, never a serious product.
yeah it's definitely some classic engineering around the problem, but hard to fix Github I guess. At a previous company, we switched to Gitlab for the specific reason that they handled notebook diffs slightly better. It's a struggle out here
I _think_ it's just things users have added. This is a fediverse app. It's not some centralized list of books that people are working from. It's not limited to English books, or even US books.
Is it possible to farm Kangaroos for this purpose? Perhaps its brutal to suggest, but I imagine hunting wild Kangaroos is not what we want here, as their numbers are already in decline, IIRC.

Can the rest of a Kangaroo be used in some productive way? I'd honestly feel ethically bad that we are killing Kangaroos just for their muscle tendon in certain areas
I'm genuinely not. I'm honestly fascinated by your thinking. It appears we have similar goals, yet I cannot wrap my head around your logic. There must be some deep, first/zeroth principles that we disagree on or something.
Have you considered that the meme about Pelosi being "the best trader in history" might be just a complete lie? I don't even disagree with the proposals to restrict trading in congress but it's kind of wild how credulously everyone is repeating these things..

I am a white, male, native English speaker. I benefit greatly from the fact that the scientific community of which I am a part was mostly set up by, and continues to operate for the benefit of, people like me. I do not feel, nor did this article make me feel, that I am bad for possessing these qualities; but I would feel bad if I tried to stick my head in the sand and not hear it when someone else told me about these issues. It's not my responsibility to solve all the problems caused for people not like me in a world that is set up for people like me, but I'm certainly not too fragile to at least be aware of them.
This doesn't seem reasonable at all? Ban on trading while during office is one thing, ban on keeping preexisting ownership is quite something else.
It’s a pretty large spectrum of severity.

For instance my daughter does not show any autistic symptoms, but is a very picky eater and, what presents the most difficulty for us, has clothing sensitivity - no hair clips, bands, or pony tails, only very specific baggy oversized pieces of clothing, no elastic bands wider than an inch on pants, only specific socks, etc. Its a pain and we can never get it quite right. But she is 14 now and it’s all quite “normal” to us now and we just deal with it. You find ways to cope and handle it so it becomes routine and you don’t even notice it anymore.

Also asthma is a pretty common thing to go along with this, and allergies. She is even allergic to cold - gets hives if ambient temp is low. You should check her for allergies not to end up in the hospital with something you weren’t aware of.

There are online forums dedicated to this sort of thing, hn is not a common place to go for advice.
Indeed. Former British colonies as a whole have good representation in STEM for this reason. (Where I work, there's a lot of Nigerians as well as Indians)
Unlike regular waves, photons are topologically stable, like smoke-ring kind of wave. Google hopfions for example.

If you like hydrodynamic quantum analogs (walking droplets), then you may see that droplet may escape it pilot wave sometimes. In such cases, pilot wave continue to travel in same direction for some time. IMHO, it's similar to how photons are formed: electron creates pilot wave, then escapes it, similar to Cherenkov radiation.

Anyway, photons have special configuration, so they behaves differently than regular waves.

Gravitational waves, AFAIK, are not topologically stable at all.

I really appreciate the honesty. It is not the end of the world to delay a highly anticipated feature, especially when the delay was a consequence of prioritizing the long-term stability of the codebase over the promised delivery date.
A rock solid digital lib should be abuse-proof or it gonna be not rock-solid.
An excessive amount of promotions is really bad.

They disrupt teams. They create an incentive to build things that you never have to look after. They turn away attention from your team and the product you're working on. They undervalue meaningful iterative work, process optimization, customer support. They stimulate competition instead of collaboration.
Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV+. Nothing else. If TV show is not on these, I simply do not watch it, I waste enough time on TV as it is. I have no TV set or cable subscriptions.

I rent a movie I want to watch from Apple TV+ once or twice per month.
The thing is, even with insider trading, lawmakers underperform the market. The few that trade well either have a background in finance or a spouse who is in finance, like most other people who outperform the market. The value of this insider trading must be very overstated. DOD stocks like LMT make poor investments compared to just buying the index anyhow.
They would be allowed to own indexes (pool of managed stocks).
They are complaining because they have to live where they work? What a hardship that no one else faces…
> I'm curious why one would specifically want to save cell outputs as is in the Jupyter notebook

My blind guess is that it improves the readability of the notebook / promotes the literate programming mindset. But just a guess
People respond to incentives. If you make something harder, people will do less of it.

New barriers include: the actual work of moving money around to and from friends and family and directing trades, counterparty risks in doing so (e.g. sibling dies and leaves money to someone else or takes the money and runs), tax complications, or reputational risk if found to be violating "spirit of the law" that might harm election odds. There are surely more frictions and barriers like these that I'm not capturing.
Most of my streaming comes bundled. Through T-Mobile I no longer pay for AppleTV+, Netflix, nor Paramount+. I start and stop subscriptions all the time when my favourite shows aren't streaming.

Using a dedicated fileserver running Docker and PMS is one of a dozen containers. It sits atop a pair of 10TB USB HDDs whose primary function is local backups. This media library is comprised of my ripped DVD and Blu-ray collection. While the physical disks are in storage my media collection has stayed with me across oceans :-)

This strike is going to be interesting. I remember the dearth of shows during the last writers strike. You had shows that just stopped midseason and never came back. Others simply finished on a cliffhanger. Media companies used reality shows to fill in for missing content.
Naming the Enemy: Critical Social Justice
Yeah the small systems are often very efficient, but you can't really use them for file serving from HDDs. USB (and even eSATA) enclosures are not a suitable replacement for internal SATA ports. Their controllers & firmware are not stable enough for heavy concurrent use and often crash or become non-responsive.

Idling an old Xeon or a 12100 at 4W is also a bit more challenging than a 1.1Ghz Celeron.
I agree about the importance of better infrastructure but I had to check this 50% loss number.

Water distribution efficiency in France was actually 81.5% in 2021.[1]
Which means 18.5% is lost to leaks.
The figure often given is 20%, maybe taking into account the error margins of the studies.

According to another study from 2019 [2], it's actually similarly or more efficient than other rich countries in Europe (losses of 21% in the UK, Belgium 27%, Italy 34%).
The author of the study says that according to experts reaching efficiency above 85% is extremely difficult. [2]

IMHO this ban will never pass. The only law all these people are always sure to vote for is the one increasing their salary and benefits.

But beyond that, even if it passes, I expect so many violations that it'd be as if it didn't pass.

If we've learned anything in the last 6-7 years is that if there's no shame, law becomes less relevant. It's enough to look at some of of the current crop (and I'm doing my absolute best to prevent myself George from dropping Santos actual names here) to understand that the believe they're above any law.
I like json for data exchange, but I will never be able to endorse the notebook is a json document idea. It is the poster child for why you would want a document markup language, and they said "why not encode it in a textual data language instead?"

Yes, even in a document model, merge conflicts can give you invalid documents. Programmers deal with this every day when they create invalid programs. Trying to hide the document into data complicates that in ways that are obvious in hindsight, and not that surprising with foresight.
With hindsight we can see it wasn't timely as no other nation was close or even could accomplish it.

I’ve been aware of Comic Mono [0] for a bit, and it’s weird how it grew on me.

I love watching people argue over COVID-related politics. It's such a perfect example of how tribal politics and scientific illiteracy affect public opinion and unfortunately, all too often, public policy.

I went out of my way to study especially some of the mathematics used for modelling projections into the future.

I not only read about the SIR model, but poked around a few of its variants like SIRV, SEIS, MSEIRS, etc... I even ran a few up in Mathematica and toyed around with different parameters, trying to get a feel for how the errors accumulate and what can and can't be predicted.

Just that little tiny corner of the pandemic response is insanely complicated once you get into the weeds. You have to account for what fraction of the infected actually turn up for test. What fraction of the tests are false positives or negatives. How fast mutations spread and distort the test results. How other countries or even counties report their statistics differently. And so on, and so forth.

Once you get a good feel for a tiny part of the big picture like that, it makes it much easier to gauge who's spouting bullshit, and who's also been in the same weeds as you have and is covered in cuts and leeches.

At the end of the day, the numbers said 'x'. Everyone that sounded like they knew what they were talking about agreed with 'x'. Everyone who sounded like they were making things up to suit their selfish agenda never used terms like MSEIRS, "infection-to-test ratios", or any such thing. They also seemed to use many different numbers, sometimes making up new numbers in the same conversation. More commonly, they wouldn't use numbers at all, and talked instead about freedom or human rights. Emotions and feeling that might get hurt.

Here's a number: so far at least 6 million people have died, of which 1.1 million were in the United States alone.

The numbers said it would have been a lot worse if prompt action wasn't taken. Ten times more deaths or even worse were entirely within reasonable projection bounds.

Yet... people keep arguing as-if 6 million people hadn't died. As if hospitals hadn't been overwhelmed. As if we lived in some sort of counter-factual universe, or we could choose to live in such a place through sheer force of will.

As if we could berate the virus into not mindlessly replicating exponentially in order to appease our God-given right to freedom and profit.
First, I think you are grossly overestimating the number of people who know their mayor or local sheriff.

Secondly, the idea that professional influence campaigns won't work because, "the target 'knows' everybody" is naive in the extreme. It betrays a lack of knowledge about what it is you're up against. These campaigns work, and they work well. That's the reason everyone from corporations to intelligence agencies put so much resource into them.

Lastly, none of what you said actually makes the mayor and the sheriff "not corrupt". Which is the fundamental issue. How do you ensure non-corrupt officials? Or at a minimum, decrease corruption. Your idea probably doesn't even shift the corruption, because corruption is already there. It just gives the corrupt local officials more money to steal in the end. Them knowing everyone increases the opportunity and possibilities for corruption. It doesn't decrease them, which is what you want.

What we need are ideas on how to be more effective in decreasing corruption. So less, "shift it to the local level" and more "reignite and reallocate more human resources to the public corruption segment of the FBI". But people will not want to do the latter, because it would catch their corruption. Whereas they would want to do the former, because it gives them more opportunities to participate in corruption.

I was going to mention this as well. I am of the demographic squarely aimed at the NeoPets revival (late millenials/early gen-z) and not a single person I know views NeoPets in a good light after they tried to pivot to NFTs.

I'm sure not everyone holds the same views as my friends and I, but I know they burned a LOT of good will trying to make a quick buck.
Hire a baby sitter and go to an office or co-working place. This site is an echo chamber of anti-office sentiment but I can tell you from my experience running a company many many parents actually preferred going into the office exactly because of what you are experiencing.
