New Proposal Bans Plumbers from Houses of Congress.

Read: Under new proposal Mario Bros must trade in plungers for portfolios. Minority Leader Bowser had this to say: "It's important for the koopas of our nation to know their leaders are working for them, and not taking all the mushrooms and star powers for themselves."

There is no 400km rampart at the Equator. It's not because it's technically winter there that it is not hotter than normal.
I know what you meant, and commented appropriately. I don't comment "I'm an American so this esteemed community should cater to my preference and convert units of measurement" when someone puts Celsius in a title. Doing that would be condescending, and this esteemed community (with a few exception apparently) is smart and mature enough to deal with trivial issues like unit differences.
Yea, you are right. Poor choose of words on my side. One can argue the definition of "web" but it would be much more precise to write "CLI client".
Thanks for the update. I will certainly keep an eye for it.
This is a very well-written article by someone who is intimately knowledgeable of the history of the field. The interview with Josef Průša is particularly illuminating.

It's a very, very sad story. It sounds like open-source hardware could have thrived if it weren't for China subsidizing local companies and enforcing bad IP claims for its domestic companies (which was really IP stolen from other countries but filed for patent first in China by Chinese companies).
I remember when it was a fairly safe assumption that almost all content would end up on Netflix in time, with only a few odd-balls going to Hulu. Now with the big players — Disney, NBCuniversal, HBO, and Paramount — all having their own streaming platforms, Netflix is no longer the indispensable service it once was.

They can try to raise prices and cut features / content in order to return to the golden age of profitability, but I don’t believe they’ll ever get it back.
Sadly no. It is a hit or miss. Particularly, URL match detection is comically bad. I also despise the way the browser extension injects code in every webpage where it detects forms. There's also no way to manually trigger the autofill.
> for most people in most cases that's akin to putting a bank vault door on the front of your house

If we are talking about a device in which you do banking, shopping, manage sensitive or work data, etc. then I think security should be a priority. For more casual use, I agree Qubes would be overkill.

> Which one are you choosing?

I'd rather execute Setup.exe inside Windows Sandbox or denying UAC prompts, or a random macOS binary (provided SIP is not disabled) than a Flatpak. To be clear, I think Flatpak is an improvement, I'm glad it exists and I hope it continues evolving. But in my opinion, the Linux desktop still has a long way to catch up to Windows and macOS on security.
Or what millions of windows developers already know and love: visual basic.

I hope Microsoft comes up with something like it, so we are not forced to learn java in order to add scripts to html pages.
What are your feeling about the philosophy behind it, i.e. GPL vs BSD license?
(btw, 1.6g/kg is 0.725g/lb, so still 73% of the person above's recommendation and only for hypertrophy results)

The person I replied to isn't talking about weight lifting nor optimizing hypertrophy. The actual context was weight management and satiety.

> Notably just about the entire developed world is protein deficient. Factor in the DIAAS score [1] and the entire developed world is plainly malnourished as far as protein goes. [...] Even if somebody isn't working out, bumping up the protein (and protein quality) would almost certainly show great things. I went from relying on intermittent fasting and some fairly cautious eating to maintain my weight, to a "diet" that culminates in "Oh god, I just can't eat anymore!" owing to nothing but dramatic shifts in my protein (and protein quality) intake.

If people are already getting enough protein, I don't see how macronutrient fixation will help with weight loss.

My own suspicion is that most people who are overweight probably need to replace less satiating foods like refined grains with more satiating foods like legumes, potatoes, whole grains, veg/fruits or anything more satiating than the food they are replacing on this index: http://ernaehrungsdenkwerkstatt.de/fileadmin/user_upload/EDW...

Meat is also more satiating than refined grains, but it's clear just looking at the satiety food index that satiety isn't directed by one magical macronutrient, yet the commenter above seems to purport that it's the case.
I'd like to see some numbers about how many people struggling with gambling addictions compared to how many people struggle with in-game-purchase addictions. Both share the negative reinforcement of spending money. In exchange one gives you the positive reinforcement of playing a game. Another gives you the positive reinforcement of money. I have the feeling money is a 10x more potent reward.

This is to say, the gaming industry makes games that are a problem for some people but I'd like to see some hard numbers comparing it to gambling before I would say the product is as dangerous as gambling on a population level.
No, it's true. The matter of fact was that some collective hypnosis or lie was happening, and when you told people that the vaccine wasn't meant to stop transmission, they would just get angry from the cognitive dissonance.
The Earth isn't a closed system. Most of the heat that is getting trapped by C02 is coming from the sun, and we continually bleed atmosphere into space. The average temp of the universe is -455F, so cold is the most abundant resource.
> The reason I ask is that last numbers I saw somewhere were thrown off by VPS providers and cellular providers.

How are these situations "throwing off" the numbers?

There seems to an underlying assumption in this statement that if you (e.g.) stream a Youtube video from your cell phone (over IPv6) it is "invalid" (less valid) but if you stream it on your desk/laptop from your (IPv4-only) home or work's ISP it is (more) "valid".

> Cellular had no choice but to go IPv6 due to sheer numbers of users.

Of course they have a choice: they could spent millions of dollars getting IPv4 address for their customers, or they give IPv4 shared space [1] to all the devices and spend millions on CG-NAT equipment. No IPv6 needed.

Every IPv6 connection is just as valid as every IPv4 connection.

Someone with some spare cash for seed funding could file with the SEC to create an ETF that does exactly this.
Don’t know why people have objections to this, we already use bovine and pig valves in hearts, saves lives, improves health. I am comforted by the fact that if I ever need to rebuild a knee someday in the future, kangaroo tendons may be an option, so I can stay off the bench and stay on the basketball court.
Actually, even before that line they have a much more prominent subtitle: "Social Reading and Reviewing, Decentralized".

So it does seem that the federated nature is what they consider their main unique selling point for everyone, it's not just a framing for the HN audience.
> Partha Majumder, a geneticist and the founder of the National Institute of Biomedical Genomics in Kalyani, India, says that he is optimistic about the NRF’s prospects, but that its success will depend on how it is governed in practice. He adds that, as yet, no publicly available documents comprehensively outline how the NRF will operate and achieve its objectives.

Nice to imagine that it won't just be another loot box spawn point, for those whose talent is winning political games...
I saw his talk live in 2014 and the dude is amazing. I loved his summary of building Python libraries from the ground up during legal discovery because he discovered a hidden Python installation on the terminal his opponents gave him that allowed him to parse thousands of documents very quickly.

Simply put: technology is one step ahead of the law. All of these ‘tricks’ should be regulated as gambling for the same reasons gambling is regulated: they’re addictive, they disproportionately affect vulnerable groups, they extract large sums of money from these groups and enrich some large companies in the process.

When viewed in that light, perhaps even existing gambling regulations don’t go far enough because there are plenty of people who suffer from gambling addiction and even ruin their lives in the process.

As for the people who oppose all of this regulation on the basis of individual freedom (and perhaps don’t care about gambling addicts), here is the issue: externalities. People with severe gambling addiction can do tremendous damage to society as well as enable and enrich organized crime groups. It’s well documented that people with gambling addiction can and do commit thefts and even murders to fuel their addiction.

Now you might also argue that regulation does not prevent gambling addiction but that is only evidence against the current set of regulations, not proof that all regulation is ineffective. Trying to determine the right regulations to minimize the harms of gambling addiction while balancing personal freedoms is the hard part of policy debates.
But it should never have needed to be one. Every extension is an increase in security exploit surface. They removed it because "it wasn't popular enough", rather than "it had problems that don't have the capacity to fix" in a period where they had no idea what to do with FF in order to not bleed money all over the floor. Removing it was a short sighted decision that did nothing to push the needle up.
Sure. My most recent headache is with using a USB wifi dongle. During system startup, I want to attach some remote drives over wifi, so I need to be able to do that after the wifi connection is established.

Systemd does not appear to be able to tell when that happens. It thinks the network is established before it actually is, and then the mount calls cause the startup process to pause for 3 minutes for those mount calls to time out before continuing.
Web refers to Gemini here, it being a command-line client for the Gemini web.

These line-based browsers used to be more common, there were a few ones for the www but also ‘ftp’ has such a mode. As does my little ‘nostt’ Teletext reader.
What does that email look like?

"Hi, we noticed your bank account hasn't been completely drained yet. How can we help you resolve this? And have you considered intermittent fasting?"

Actually I was answering this question wrong because I somehow understood it in the context of snprintf() return int, and I should have just replied "you can switch to size_t if you like". start + end pointer is certainly not necessary, not sure why one would ever do this. It's more inviting of bugs compared to start pointer + length.
If we're talking favorite python tutorials, I am a huge fan of this tutorial on python entrypoints: https://amir.rachum.com/python-entry-points/
> This basically boils down to somebody saying “let’s use the standard font for the platform the user is using”.

Exactly. This is what system-ui should be but some browsers instead default to something else, perhaps in a misguided effort to make their UA look consistent between platforms, to many use a font-list like the above to try enforce what system-ui should be. Unfortunately it falls apart if the user has fonts for other systems installed (perhaps for compatibility with others they collaborate with on documents, or to be able to view HTML more exactly as those users will see it) and those users get someone else's system font instead because it is ahead of thiers in the list.

Don't forget that Google and Apple make a lot of money from this. They could ban these games from their appstores without waiting for legislators to act, but they won't.
Just taking since life developed, our planet has been being hit by sun for 4.2bn years. If Earth had no way of dissipating heat, we’d have burned to a crisp by now. No?
I prefer it, but I also prefer to stick to the terminal as much as possible. If I were a VSCode user, I might disagree.

My main factor is I don't want to have to context switch across applications. I don't feel like I'm doing that if I stay in the terminal. As such, I would imagine if I were a VSCode user, I'd prefer a git plugin there.

VCS is very much tied to the code, so I think it makes sense to co-locate.
Maybe someone will take all the streaming services and combine them into one.
Racquet sports and fitness trends come and go. When I was a kid, decades ago, squash was niche but well known, kids like me and my friends spent hours playing variations of table tennis, "pelota" was a cheap game with made-up rules ("tedesca" was another one, but on the soccer field, some of my older compatriots might remember), and "aerobics" was trendy in the few gyms that operated at the time.
Tennis always had a hard core group of participants, and padel is nowadays, by far, the most popular racquet sports in latin or latin-adjacent countries.
My guess is that for most folks good at math => you're smart, so the most obvious way to test an LLM is to ask it a math question, which is trivial to construct. Another motivation IMO is that asking a relatively simple math question and seeing an LLM fall flat kind of makes many to feel good about themselves and gives them a chance to show it off on social media.
I imagine they will want to provide/audit all the dependencies of rust toolchain which is already hundreds(?) of crates. It probably isn't much extra work to offer the same crates as some sort of platform.
It's not de facto theft just because you write an unhinged comment and then claim that it is.
I've standardized on the mplus Nerd Font: https://www.programmingfonts.org/#mplus

It's narrow, comes in a very light weight (I use weight 250 for coding), and works well in Emacs, VSCode, and iTerm2. I find that its bold and italics are easier to read than many other fonts, and that oO08 iIlL1 g9qCGQ are all distinguishable from each other.

I used to use Source Code Pro but found that I wanted something that allowed me to view more in the same width windows.

Another option is Victor Mono: https://www.programmingfonts.org/#victor-mono
Some nice background reading on these standards here: https://solidsands.com/safety/iso-26262
Security is an onion. It has layers. You can be motivated to prevent people from running "curl | sh" because a phishing email told them to even if internal systems run their own authentication and authorization.
If you want to .await multiple futures that can return an error you can use tokio::try_join, futures_utils::try_join_all, etc. For example:

let (
db_eid_cache,
table_eid_cache,
job_eid_cache,
table_summaries_cache,
job_summaries_cache,
query_summaries_cache,
) = try_join!(
create_db_eid_cache(aws_clients.clone(), config),
create_table_eid_cache(aws_clients.clone(), config),
create_job_eid_cache(aws_clients.clone(), config),
create_table_summaries_cache(aws_clients.clone(), config),
create_job_summaries_cache(aws_clients.clone(), config),
create_query_summaries_cache(aws_clients.clone(), config),
)?;

The code dealing with your clients looks suspect. Why do you have a global with a .get method that is async and returns a reference? It should probably be sync. On top of that it probably shouldn't be a global variable. Pass it in as context to the handler.

I'm also suspicious of having this `AwsClients` struct and a bunch of free functions that take it by owner. Why aren't you adding an `impl` block with those as methods? And why are they taking ownership requiring the .clone`?
Discord performance is garbage compared to Telegram. Especially on desktop
Not surprising.

Every few months, Netflix pulls some MBA-oriented move that makes the service less appealing.
How is search index a moat? It's hard to build, yes, but there is no moat here and anyone can build it as long as they have infra, talent and money.

Also for Apple while I am not sure, but looking at the Android phones there is hardly any feature of Apple which hasn't been covered by some Android phone, so I don't think IP is an issue. It's just that overall quality is much more consistent for Apple across generations that it has built a good brand.
Antarctic sea ice is also extremely low for the time of year (see https://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/ ), so it's not only the north.
Same, they even had tutorials for writing html and css! I referenced them often.
Go back to the start of Intellectual Property law. Patents are supposed to be a deal between the inventor and society, inventors get rich for 17 years of exclusivity then the public gets to have the whole design available to use. Fair deal.

What we have now is not a fair deal, to the point that people are trying to re-invent the notions that the laws were originally supposed to embody.

I think Hoyoverse (formerly Mihoyo) has the formula down. You don't have to spend money on their games. They play just fine without. But you think "wouldn't it be nice to have Ganyu or Hu Tao". I think the drop rates are better than FGO at least.
I'd question why you'd ask an LLM something like this instead of Wolfram Alpha, or just look up the answer. It's not something you need an LLM to figure out.

It's like asking an LLM for all the digits of pi multiplied by 5. Why?

The problem with LLMs is the amount of things it makes sense to use them for is really not that large.
Meanwhile a seedbox is still extremely cheap and automating any show you want is a few clicks.
In the government, and large organizations as well, there is often a large pot of money that is 'use it or lose it'. In fact, overspending can often justify need for larger budgets next year around and underspending can make you look bad as someone who doesn't know how to forecast their requirements better. It is diametrically opposite to how thoughtful people budget for themselves or their homes and leads to things that make no sense at a logical level 'save resources, etc' but makes perfect sense at another level, 'grow my empire'.
How is that even in the same category?

Google does not force you to install Chrome in order to use Search.

> For people who are young and healthy, there isn’t clear evidence that spikes in glucose (which are much smaller than those experienced by people with diabetes) are detrimental to health. So while some people might be curious to see if manipulating this aspect of their biology changes how they feel, several experts said the potential benefits probably don’t justify the cost.

Shouldn’t we be moving away from evidence based on the average case and encouraging individualized healthcare? Additionally, doesn’t this this help transition from a reactionary system to more proactive?

To me, it does justify the cost.
>You can tell a company is in decline when it’s doing everything it can to claw back value.

Now that the free money is over so is the unsustainable free ride. All these VC funded scaleups are trying to claw back value as most of them weren't really profitable, just relied on investors, but now investors want their pound of flesh. It's way overdue wakeup call for the industry.

If a company is promising you something for free, check your pockets.

We've had collectable cards for ages. Baseball cards, garbage pail kids, etc. Those you couldn't even play a game with, you just tried to collect and trade. Honestly even MTG and Pokemon cards are so much better than mobile games which are there 24/7 begging for attention and making kids feel like they're missing out if they don't check in every few hours. Plus with the cards in the end, you've got a collection of cards you can play with, sell, or keep for the memories or whatever. With digital stuff you'll be lucky if you can still access in your ingame purchases after a few years

Eh, it depends. A lot of free games are trash from a gameplay perspective, if you spend any amount of time in them it's obvious how they're trying to milk you for money.

Free games with cosmetic mtx are usually better, but I really don't like the direction the industry is taking.

While really great fixed-price games with no mtx are still being made, it certainly feels like a dying model in the AAA world.
Ish? Sensitivity analysis measures, by definition, sensitivity to inputs. I suppose you can model it so that some extrinsic factors are themselves written as inputs, but I haven't seen this explored with the idea of robustness, much. (Granted I may just be ignorant in that area.)

What you are pointing to, seems to be degrees of freedom on an input? The more options you have in an input, the better. Robust systems also have to deal with the unknown adversaries of the system that will work against it, though? Not just, "we were sensitive to the costs of feed changing, but there is also now an avian flu going around and we have to kill our flock." A simulation is easy to imagine that does this and forces you to see what is next. Is that common in LP formulations?
