Show HN: Chonker a Python package for data chunking
I created chonker to avoid indexing errors from writing index%chunsize. I considered using the standard approach of returning data chunks but find it more difficult to read for my common use case of checkpointing. Chonker returns a chonk data structure that can be used to make decisions when processing a chunk of data.
Some friends who work with kids with autism use noise cancelling headphones a lot.

They also have timelines and schedules. For some kids they literally specify a "T minus" timeline.

Some therapists and parents have found it helpful to have standard routines (procedures) and checklists [1], as a few were Navy flight surgeons and aviators in their other careers. The kids get used to a standardized, but not overly rigid way.

This is just a problem with how we measure a manager's performance. If you measure an IC's performance as "what that IC accomplished" and then measure a manager's performance as "the sum of what every IC under him accomplished" then of course, even a mediocre manager is going to look like he's had more impact than the world's foremost expert IC.
Can anyone elaborate on the specialization? Does it have to do with segmenting the dataset, or with training on different kinds of tasks?

Jellyfin user here. Started on Roku, moved to a Shield because I needed more codecs (my server's too weak to live-transcode anything above ~720p) and wanted to get there cheap.

Should have just gone straight to the AppleTV, which is where I ended up. Better UI, not shitted up with ads, less jank and crashing (friggin' Android), and none of the problems I'd see with playback of certain combos of audio and video codecs on the Shield. If not for the weak codec line-up, even sticking with Roku would have been better than the shield (yeah, it's shitted up with ads, too, but not as bad—hell, the Apple TV kinda has some, but again, less bad).
China is most likely to suffer a severe economic and societal collapse due to their demographic problems within a couple decades. At that point their scientific productivity will also decline. There is no scenario in which Chinese becomes the dominant written language for scientific discourse.

My daughter had the same diagnosis at 24 months. We caught on to something at 18 months when we saw all she was doing was either running back and forth across the room (making the same verbal sound), or pressing a light up toy's button again and again for an hour, without any other interest.

We ended up finding a behavioral specialist who worked with her on a weekly basis. From age 2 to 3, and through some of the pandemic. The day she said "I don't think your daughter needs me anymore" was one of the happiest days of our lives. I still say "Thank God for <specialist's name>" every time the topic comes up with my wife, or friends.

She challenged her, got her to come out of her shell and talk to her, and my daughter is about to start kindergarten this year. She still has verbal tics, and loves to stim by running back and forth, but she's also interacting with all her friends, loves to play imaginary games with herself and her brother, and if you didn't know her past, you wouldn't ever assume it about her.

So, yeah, find someone to help. It's worth it.
Going from "no individual stock picking" to "we feel you have too much cash, you have to buy index funds!" is quite the leap.
Scientists should love standards and there is no more important standard for advancement of science than all scientists in the world being fluent in a single language. So far, it looks like it's going to be English. But if, after generation or two, it ends up being Spanish or Mandarin, I am fine with that. For the same reason, I am willing to use metric units in scientific matters.

Or if at some point computer real time verbal and written translation between languages and measuring units is truly flawless, we have sidestepped the entire problem. But any solution that calls for fragmentation of human knowledge by having different papers and different conferences using different languages is tribal, not scientific.

That is not to say that learning multiple languages is bad. It's just cultural, not scientific. With any luck, science will one day give us enough leisure that we have more time for culture.
Somewhat off-topic, but a while ago Google Meet shipped an update that broke all of the "Big Mute Button" style chrome extensions, which would let you mute/unmute google meet with a global keyboard shortcut regardless of what window you were focused on.

A strategy that is useful in our family is priming our son (~4.5 years old) for transitions from one activity to another by verbally informing him what we are going to be doing as a series of steps.

Ex:
First we will eat breakfast
Then we will brush our teeth and change clothes.
Then we will put on shoes and get in the car.
Then we will play and have fun at school.
Then daddy will pick you up.
Then we can go home and eat dinner.
Then we will (activity)

He can have pretty high anxiety and doing loops like this helps provide structure / routine and he can guess what is coming next so it doesn’t feel like a sudden rip out of time and place when switching to the next activity.

Also by talking about what comes next in the day it gives a chance to talk about anything they are worried about- like if they hear that the plan includes going to the store and they seem worried (noise, over stimulation, etc) now there’s a spot you can try to break down and talk about / reassure.

Ex:
When we drive to the store we get out of the car and into the cart.
After we get in the cart we can go get our groceries!
After we find out groceries we pay and go home and eat (good stuff, yay!)

I’m diagnosed ADHD and he shows signs of being neurodivergent as well and when we plan and talk things through it really helps bring things from high effort transitions to routine. It brings time context to those who may have difficulty with time blindness / focus as well as gives a chance to reduce surprises and talk out what happens (surprise and unknowns management).

The effort for transitions and activities has gotten way easier over time and things that used to be hard like going to the grocery have turned into exciting things (let’s go get (favorite snack!)).

Our son is also very clingy but when we cling together we do things like some adults do for anxiety like name a few things we see, name a few things we hear, but also that we are here together and we are ok.

Parenting in general and parenting kids with extra needs can be super exhausting, but the fact you are asking for ideas is showing you care and are attentive - you got this :)
I agree entirely. The problem for newcomers is getting the first couple of clients. Discount pricing can help with that. But it needs to be clear to even those clients what your real rate is and that they're getting a discount.

As a mom of a kid with SPD, yes reduce that screen time. We share custody 50/50, and when kiddo returns from the house with unlimited screen time, he is a monster and it can take several days for him to regain the ability to emotionally regulate.

Screen time is free dopamine. It rewards withdrawal and inactivity. For a kid with SPD, just existing in the world is painful due to all of the stimuli. Add "stop hitting people" or whatever and you're saying "ignore the incoming pain and stop redirecting that pain elsewhere." And that's really hard, and kids can do it but it takes effort with very little reward. But then you add the TV, the brain's baseline is "I can get huge rewards for zero effort," and regulation becomes a million times harder.
This shit only comes out in low-risk situations. If Chinese was becoming standard, they'd go back to talking about rape culture in dog parks or whatever.

It's why Queer Theory is so insane - very very low stakes. (If you don't believe me, read some Gayle Rubin or the less mainstream Foucault stuff).

> it may as well be a recent stable release of Rust.

It essentially is, we're pretty open about this. There's a tiny patchset that's required to enable some guarantees (literally a handful of patches), none of them of interest to the upstream project. Every major change has been contributed upstream. Even the spec that was built as part of the effort is open source.
The bad news is there is no quick fix for any of this. The good news is there are options.

Occupational Therapy has shown promise for us. In the last ~9 months we have seen improvements with our kiddo who too struggles with SPD, and in many of the same ways you have shared.

We are now starting play therapy as well to help get ahead of the anxiety and are working with a therapist that can give our child tools but also us, as parents, tools for the 167 hours a week they are not in therapy.

Find some coping mechanisms that work and roll with them, even if you don't love them. We didn't love bringing a tablet with us to appointments (we like to minimize screen time) but plunk on the headphones, turn on some music and that helps distract them enough for you to talk with a doctor.

Transitions are hard for us as well because they are generally compounded by picky eating. We don't fight the picky eating but just know that if we are all having takeout for dinner, we are probably going to be putting on a pot of water to make pasta, or a pb&j because it works. We always carry snacks and bring favorites with us, even to a dinner party to stay on top of the hanger as best we can.

Sleeping, for us, has has gotten better. Physical activity helps, we have trampoline that takes up a 1/4 of our back yard and its worth the annoyance. But I usually am in the room, at the foot of the bed laying down for our night time routine and that works. A lot of times, for us, we need a midnight snack and then settling back in is no problem, but we had to figure that out as parents not get inputs from our kiddo on it. Blackout curtains, setting the AC low and setting the bedroom up for sleep success have helped.

We have found, for our child, that being in nature is also helpful and helps center them and get them out of the hustle and bustle of the city a bit.

Routine also may help.. the transitions become the norm and then are not unexpected and can help to mitigate those metldowns.

One constant thing we need to remind ourselves as parents is to not fight it or punish them for not aligning with your expectations, its not a behavior issue its they are jumping into that fight or flight lizard brain response for things.

Before you turn down that promotion it may be worth talking with your prospective boss about your situation. If you are just starting to go down this journey with your daughter don't think its never going to change or get better.

So, I had this exact same experience, until IT turned on whatever group policy allows you to see the New Teams toggle switch. [1] You might still be on the “old teams”. In classic Microsoft fashion, it’s 1000x more complex than it has to be.

I think Microsoft managed to get it to "functional garbage" in April 2020, as did Zoom. Both sucked, but the UI made enough sense that even your most antiquated & computer-illiterate colleagues, friends, & family could join a videocall from the isolation of their own home.

That was the real MVP for video conferencing software in the early pandemic, and Slack missed it by years.
I appreciate your response to my response :-)

I agree to a certain extent, although I probably don't quite see proximity to family as massively different from proximity to friends. I personally think kids being brought up in "generally loving and supportive" environments in which which they get to hang out with all sorts of groups is actually what's important.

So kids (of course) having other kids to be with - but also being involved in the back and forth of adulthood as well. Kids being at the table when adults are discussing things over dinner, being party to (some) of the trials and tribulations of adulthood, knowing that parents are fallible but supportive - and yes, into this mix comes family too.

What I'd personally describe as the "problem of contemporary parenthood" - as you describe it - is a bit closer to home. I'd say it is families where the parents simply don't have time to spend with their kids - either because they're primarily focused on The Big Career or have been forced by low incomes to work several jobs / work all the time. I see many, many people chasing money for the sake of some future satisfaction / security - and then they look around and their kids have been and gone. Those 18 years go like a flash (as my mother in law says: "when you have kids, the days are long but the years are short"), and our personal intention has always been (to a certain extent!): "screw the future, we're here and now with our kids, let's make the most of that time!". So we could have grown our business, could have taken on staff, could have had big premises, could have gone for bigger and bigger web builds - but we have deliberately chosen not to. Downside: we'll probably never be able to retire! - but I've had the absolute luxury and privilege of seeing my kids grow up, and being there all the way through that journey. There's a parallel world where I am now (at 50) selling my business ready for retirement - but it's a world in which I wouldn't have been present for my family. Would I swap these worlds? Never, not in a million years.

The childcare aspect is definitely a thing, and we have probably suffered - definitely financially (at least for a while while we decided to live off one salary in order to make the childcare logistics easier^) - but again, friends have been amazing, groups like the NCT, close connections with people in the village, all providing a support network that does all of this and more.

[^ I am very aware that nowadays it just isn't possible for many adults to have only one parent working, we were again lucky given the circumstances at the time that we were able to do this...]

Having written decades of async code without rust (and still doing so in c++), I don't understand your point. It is really hard to write safe highly performant asynchronous code. Rust makes it safe, but without the additional "syntax sugar" it makes it very unergonomic. The developer velocity I can achieve with async rust is unbelievable compared to what I had to do previously.

I think your problem may be with tokio, not async. io_uring and async are not incompatible.
Like I said, both are necessary and complementary. Electric vehicles don’t suddenly make alternative transportation a bad idea.

Also there’s budget electric cars, and even Uber drivers purchase them. While I agree that they’re not that affordable yet, they’re not a luxury good either (although some models definitely are.)
100%. My toes hurt every time Lennart Poettering steps on them, but every time I dig into the "why" it turns out to not only have been a good reason but a couldn't have worked any other way reason. If someone hadn't dragged Linux kicking and screaming into the 21st century, the arbitrary choices made in the definition of a config file format 50 years ago would cripple the ability to deliver basic features 50 years later in a manner that was robust/isolated/performant/etc.

As someone who had to mess with init scripts for a couple of distros for someone who requested it, this was not far from my idea of pure anti-fun.

Every distro did init scripts in different, exciting ways, so I had to start over from reading the not-inconsequential docs for each one. The init systems come with some high-level helpers, but only if you want to use the shell, which is very unfun in its own right.
> What are some workarounds to make parenting easier and keeping my sanity while working a high pressure job? I feel very tired and can barely get any work done ( work from home) .

Realistically, you / your partner / both of you should reconsider this 'high-pressure' job. Exactly what is it achieving in your life? I made the decision to take a much less pressure job (and actually went back to IC from an eng manager). I even make less money, but I'm way happier. There is no point to working if your actual life is miserable. Now I get to spend time with my kids and do fun things all the time instead of constantly being worried about my team / our work.

From my experience with my own children and others, the parents with the highest-pressure jobs tend to have kids that are just less well adjusted. Spend time with your kids; ignore everyone else.

I can’t solve the whole problem for you, but you can `git commit --fixup HEAD~4` if you know it’s 5 commits back. No need to figure out the hash. `HEAD^^^^` would also work — sometimes if I have to repeatedly fixup the same commit, adding an additional ^ to a previous command is easiest.

In general, I feel that it's important to make your home environment a safe and comfortable environment. If you feel that exposure therapy is needed to help them adjust to the world (probably true, but I'd want to do this on the advice of a psychologist if possible rather than on my own) do that outside your home where you should be making every effort for them to feel safe and comfortable. So absolutely minimize clutter, reduce screen time and look for other options to make your home feel as safe as possible for your child.
Working with Python and Java over the years, I have this feeling that Go isnt battery included. Maybe I miss out 3rd party libraries I am very familiar with? For instance, Python has parse library to help parsing inputs without the need for RegEx. Java has lots of “common” collection libraries. I just feel exhausted coding the same from scratch in Go either because no such library exists or being told just copy and paste!
In general, no. People's bodies vary dramatically, but in the end after everything (metabolism, lifestyle, and numerous other factors) is accounted for you're basically going to end up with a table at any given snapshot in time. And that table will give you a weight you'll end up at if consume 'x' calories per day.

The reason going on a fixed deficit (or bulk) will not just endlessly let you lose or gain weight is because when you lose weight, your body starts being able to operate on fewer and fewer calories. Your metabolism might improve, but nowhere near enough to counter this effect. And vice versa when for bulking.

If you have a high tolerance for food repetition, you can even experimentally see this really easily. Lay out a diet for cutting and you can see the scale will gradually trend towards some specific weight with the decreases getting smaller and smaller. And vice versa when bulking, where you'll see initial big gains followed by a leveling out as your body approaches its new equilibrium caloric intake. This is something anybody who's done any e.g. body building can attest to.

So going on a deficit and then going back to eating what you were just means that you're just going to head back to your old weight. So diets really need to be a permanent lifestyle thing, which is why finding one you can be comfortable with is so critical.

> Code generation: the change they report is that the newer GPT-4 adds non-code text to its output. They don't evaluate the correctness of the code. They merely check if the code is directly executable. So the newer model's attempt to be more helpful counted against it.

In the prompt they specifically request only the Python code, no other output. An “attempt to be helpful” that directly contradicts the user’s request seems like it should count against it.
A parade and a festival. It's a multi-day party, for much of the time they close the main streets for cars. At night there are food stalls and performances (traditional dance/drama/music/geishas) and during the day there is a parade of giant floats on wheels called "yama" and "hoko". Gion is the famous geisha district of Kyoto however much of the festival takes place more in the center of the city.
