Vision/Neuroscience researcher and academic data scientist, industry data analyst with 4 years of experience on both very small and large teams and organizations. Much of my work has been medicine adjacent and I’m open to continuing in that space or pivoting to another interesting problem. I’ve been accepted to medical school but have decided to defer enrollment, waiting to hear back from CS masters programs as well. I’d love to learn about whatever you’re working on!
Cast iron pans don't have a link to lung cancer.

Hypermedia can be domain-specific, which already includes a lot of knowledge about data and operations. In case of HTML client needs to know the semantics of all HTML tags and understand how forms work. JSON-based RMM level 3 API can require knowledge of the schema of domain model and logical names of operations, leaving a lot of business logic to server, e.g. availability of certain operations in current security context. Client can render a button based on whether an operation with given name is mentioned in response or not instead of checking user roles etc.

> Schedule - shifts start at 6AM or earlier. I knew a guy who worked concrete, he'd have to show up at 4AM to load the mixer. I knew another guy who majored in construction management, he said they had a 6AM class every day. The theory was if you couldn't make it to class, you wouldn't make it to work either.

This cuts for the nice highly paid salaried construction engineers too, as you allude to with the classes at 6am anecdote. IME, project management expects the engineers to be on-site at least a half hour or more before the field shift begins, and at least an hour past the field shift to ensure that the 'actual' work, the field stuff, is organized, ready, and gets carried out productively. Regardless if the field is working 8s, 10s, 12s, or more.

No first thing in the morning panics or scrambles when a foreman realizes he doesn't have a work plan in hand and his crew of a dozen who started at 6am sits around waiting for the engineer to traipse in around 9am with an iced coffee just to print a pdf that should've been ready the night before.

These kind of hours pretty rapidly cut into that equivalent hourly rate your salary equals!
I'd argue that. To many having to wear a motorcycle helmet or even a seatbelt is less dignified. As is road workers having to wear a reflective yellow vest.

Dignity is weird, some people consider school and other uniforms dignified, many others consider them an affront to free-expression and for them being forced to wear it is an affront to dignity.

If the goal is max dignity, perhaps pedestrian crossings should simply play here comes the chief or long live the king as you cross.
Like with most things, I would strongly support decriminalizing all drugs on the condition that other people are not held responsible, financially or otherwise, for the actions of drug users. Your body your choice, my money my choice.
I agree with the fundamental principle that "true" HATEOAS is desirable, and that HTML provides it while JSON doesn't.

That said, I don't quite agree with the criticism of out-of-band information. Is the HTML spec not out-of-band information?

Likewise, if they had used an SGML api as the example instead of HTML, would not all the same criticisms of the JSON, for not being HATEOAS, be valid?

There are already many JSON-based APIs on the right path like ActivityPub, JSON-LD, and others. Having to know the specs of these things is no more out-of-band than knowing HTML.

TL;DR: SGML:HTML::JSON:XXXX. If we can all agree on a good XXXX instead of freeforming from just JSON every time, we can get closer to HATEOAS.
> Can I have my flying car now?

Let's not forget the flying skateboard of the film "Back to the future". I loved it in the film and it's a dream that I still have today - I'm now almost 50 years old so I would probably crash and get killed by using it, but I would still give it a try :)

Hi! I'm Josh. I'm a product-focused self-starter and a former serial founder actively in founder recovery. As a child I stuck a fork in light sockets multiple times because I was curious. Now I prefer to stick my nose in people's businesses and ideas (also because I'm curious). My track record includes taking ideas at their inception and bringing them to life, sometimes bringing them to scale, sometimes floundering with them.

I'm looking for anything I can get at this moment.
yep, I think they're looking for "have you ever drank yourself homeless where you were doing zjs in the alley for a shot of malort"
Ah, but how many countries would develop superconducting maglevs just to fund their defense program that's using similar research to make superconducting rail guns?
It’s a brilliant and beautiful idea that has approximately zero success stories in the real world
This might be glitching in the sense of “glitch art”, where you deliberately corrupt a compressed file in small ways (flip a few bits here and there, for example) that propagate in interesting ways when decompressed.

Of which this document is part and parcel. The irony is thick.
Substantial fines to domestic businesses create resentment from voters who lose their jobs due to such fines. That's why governments does this to foreign companies (e.g. US fining VW and EU fining big tech). I wonder if there is a way to structure these penalties such that doesn't cripple the domestic economy such a forcing companies to issue new shares that immediately get acquired by the government.
I think it is reasonable to expect a city to be perpetually under construction and maintenance.
There are always some discussion about turning them into apartments here on HN. My conclusion from them is that no, they couldn't.

But they could be turned into something else useful. All that space close to each other and at the destination of every transportation structure will find a usage.
People should be allowed to be fat. But if you're so fat you need 2 airline seats, you should pay for 2 seats, just like a non-fat person who wants 2 seats.

People should be allowed to use drugs and be drug addicts. But if you're so drugged up that you shit in the street and attack other people, you should go to jail, just like a non-drug user who shits in the street or attacks people.

Driving drunk is illegal because you're likely to kill someone, and then it'll be too late to say "let's just prosecute the crime of manslaughter, and not prevent future manslaughters by prosecuting drunkenness in the car."

In the same way, we should make it illegal to do drugs in situations where you are likely to cause irreparable harm.

If we legalize drugs, let's create safe situations to do so. Many drugs are being legalized under the supervision of a doctor. We could also allow drug use within a safe space where you can't OD, and where you won't leave needles on the ground for kids to step on.
I'm just saying that SaaS provides a lot more than just the cost of having an engineer or two.

It may not be cost effective, but if you think that hiring two people will be all you spend when you move everything on prem, you'll be in for a bit of a shock.
Sounds like something ChatGPT would say.
I had a friend who had tried several substances and thought they were above addiction... until they were eventually hooked on heroin. It's anecdotal, but having watched people (more than him) get addicted, I don't have much doubt that even people with a good life get hooked on bad drugs.

Hopefully, as society becomes more honest about drugs and stops scheduling every drug as equally dangerous or criminal, friends like that will be able to better trust that dangerous drugs do exist and know which ones to avoid.

You'll never find disagreement on the need for societal change. My impression is that the U.S. doesn't really have tools in place to help people caught in the grip addiction back from the brink. Best case, it seems like something that that is being dealt with city by city without a national framework. Therefore, addicts largely end up on the street, hurting others, and/or in a prison system that's not designed to help them.
Literally no one who uses USD as part of their work gets tripped up by this.

I'm a technical generalist coming most recently from infectious disease modeling. I'm casting a wide net as I eye a return to work after two years of parenthood. I'm quite willing to learn new mathematical tools, programming languages, frameworks, etc. from scratch.

I'm excited about working in climate tech, biology, politics, software enabling users to control their data (e.g., via offline/local-first models), a modern revival of the HyperCard ethos of software development, or any combination thereof.

I started as a HyperCard kid, did Mac OS X/Cocoa stuff in the early '00s, learned some things about complex systems modeling, got a Ph.D. in ecology & evolutionary biology, and have been working as a consultant for academics since then.
> failed to foresee, much less prevent, a major Russian invasion...

They absolutely did foresee it, we spent months announcing everything Russia was going to do before they did it. It's actually a brand new strategy Biden tried; usually we'd keep everything to ourself to protect how we got the info.

But it didn't prevent it because nothing would have except assassinating Putin. That would be pretty destabilizing too!

The original buildings that were never built are photocopies of other buildings I saw in my country and in other places around the world. They carry a stamp with a date >= 2010 and are completely anonymous. The ones that they actually built are not necessary beautiful but at least tell a story about the place they are in.
Safer drugs is usually referring to not getting drugs cut with other unknown shit. A common scenario is heroin from dealer A being mixed, then you switch to dealer B and get it pure (or at least more so) but not knowing that, you take the same dosage and overdose
I think you can give Miyazaki a lot more credit than that for the girls and women in Totoro, Kiki, Mononoke, and Spirited Away.

I’ve been maintaining a “soft” fork now for about 12 years now, most of that time on my own. It’s actually possible to get quite involved and do some cool stuff with the changes you make, while keeping up to date; with the resources the size of a company like Brave have, it’d be incredibly straightforward to actually use your own browser logic, with a bit of good engineering. (To all intents and purposes, using Gecko as the engine and your own browser features on top of that, separate to Firefox itself).

I’ve started myself in the past, and am picking that back up again. But by all means it’s quite possible.
I see lots of off topic comments, but I'd like to ask as someone who played with fbx and similar formats supported by Autodesk and large parts of the gaming/CG industry what does OpenUSD provides exactly over different formats.

I feel like there's never been a 3D counterpart to standards like Midi for audio.

> and make you violent ?

People getting violent with alcohol doesn’t need a citation I trust?

These are basically all the arguments for prohibition. Temperance movements work but legal prohibition doesn’t seem to.
Oh, man, is this what the future looks like? We provide the weapons, get other countries to do the fighting, wash our hands clean of the whole thing and call our global adventures not-wars as long as we can still buy gas and toilet paper? Somehow, this euphemistic imperialism of proxy wars feels even sketchier... at least the old empires were honest about their intent.

Today it's Ukraine, tomorrow Taiwan, and then what, back to the Koreas and the Middle East? Our constant involvement in cyclical non-wars sure doesn't feel the same as "peace" to me. Maybe that word just doesn't mean what I think it does anymore. Or maybe we have our tentacles in so many places that warmaking and peacemaking have become indistinguishable.

I guess as long as it's not Americans in body bags, we're in the clear? The world is our mercenary. But even that won't last long, I'm willing to bet. The world's not getting any stabler, and our competitors aren't just sitting idle.
If you're pointing a gun at me, I don't care if you say it's your intention not to shoot.

Whether it's their goal or not to exclude competing/upstart browsers and operating systems, that will be the end result given the content of the proposed standard.
America is huge too. I'm considering all of both, though, and modern-day rather than hundreds of years ago.
This law is a link tax. It means the government wants Meta and Google to pay every single time a link to a Canadian news source is shared on their platform (from what I understand, including even in private messages to friends). As far as I'm aware, it will also apply to Google in that they will also need to pay to index/show links to Canadian news in their search results like you described.
As of 2023 this is true any county to any county. What they took away was being able to inherit the tax base on rental properties.
Is this like HTML for 3D scenes?

Sidenote- OpenUSD sounds like a crypto currency.
Apple wants to own spatial computing. They've been building LIDAR into their phones for some time.
I used to strongly support people getting guns. I thought: this is a free country, you should be able to do what you want.

But what I've seen in the US has made me think differently. Most people who get guns eventually end up not being able to live like normal adults. And no one willingly goes to get help or treatment.

The problem will stick around because politicians care more about how things look. They'll say the numbers are wrong, or focus on wedge issues like LBGTQ or drugs, but they're not going to do anything on hard issues like this one.

Does anyone have ideas on what we should do? Should we make guns illegal and force people into rehab? Should we require background checks for homeless people to receive government help?
That's one of the interesting things I noticed about Amsterdam. It is notorious for the availability of cannabis, but it's very clear that you don't consume in public or around the neighborhood. (Modulo a group of teens I saw passing a joint around in the park). The coffeeshops are clearly intended to contain the drug use. Unlike California where you smell weed everywhere.
That's not true. If that were true, then decriminalization wouldn't be making them easier to access. But since drugs have been decriminalized, they have gotten much easier to access. There are open-air drug markets in SF and Portland. You can walk through and say "fent?" and get offers to sell right there. You couldn't do that 10 years ago.
You have an issue. Firefox is not slow by any means. I use all the browsers for work and Firefox for my navigation. Firefox have never been slower than anything else.
Totoro of course, but Kiki is highly underrated and great for little kids.
That’s why I have a SparcStation LX. Fits in the carryon for travel much better than a pizza box. Even easier to travel with now that I can use an LCD and don’t need to lug around the ‘ol Trinitron.

With an inverter and a car battery in my backpack I can even show a digital/ on screen boarding pass with a full 8 bits of color.
And how about payment for surgery for coronary artery disease/type 2 diabetes medications/etc?

> Our requirements for protein isn't as high as claimed by the majority of the fitness industry or actually meat & dairy industry.
> Read the PCRM article about protein I posted further above, it has more info about this. PCRM is a group of doctors and other medical experts.

I find most research on the the topic to be of dubious quality. I know that when I have more protein in my diet I feel less hungry for longer and I eat overall less calories. Also I've been working out for couple of years with little to show for it. I worry sometimes that maybe low protein diet is a, or the, reason for that.

> Where are you based?

I live in a smaller, rather conservative city where it's hard to find anything but local cuisine.

> If you live in a region where you can't survive without meat or dairy then you've got to do what you have to do to survive.

I don't need it to survive. And it is something that I want to do. I just don't know how and I'm not able to find any useful resources.
Just think of all the f-n idiots that got caught using ChatGPT without knowing its limitations. Like the reporter or lawyer that cited resources that don't exist due to hallucinations.

But yea, I gloss over all that shtie. It's insulting.
Ponyo or My Neighbor Totoro would probably be best for a first choice.

Kiki's Delivery Service and The Secret World of Arriety would be better for a (slightly) older child.

Spirited Away or Howl's Moving Castle for slightly older yet.
Some competition for https://github.com/itchyny/gojq. I had read somewhere that it was faster than jq - no idea if that's still the case.
I'm curious why you would be fumbling in your computer trying to find tickets.

I do find the plethora of window managers interesting. Is that same level of exploration going to exist in wayland? My understanding was that the job of a window manager is very different in that world.
What kind of hardware do I need to run this sufficiently well? I.e. say I want 10 tokens/s, what specs am I looking at?
But it's a lot harder for people to do this than for a computer, which means people largely won't.

Also, I still don't see how it's fair and reasonable to put this sort of burden on innocent others when they aren't the ones making the problem.
I wonder if $800 dresses have the same hardware. But every dress I've zipped up in the back also had some kind of eye/hook fastening going on, too. No idea what my GF's dresses cost though. She usually buys 2nd hand anyway...
Indeed a dark dishonest practice.

I won't touch services that do such things.
No Intel and AMD?

No thanks.

This is just a power play by all the companies most well known for lock-in and monopoly-like behavior.

This is not a good thing.
The engine is not, but the UI still sucks. I read on HN that Mozilla started working on a new iOS browser, since we all expect Apple to open up iOS in this or next year to custom browser engines. I hope they will make this new Firefox for iOS a reason to never touch Safari again (I miss Firefox Sync + Firefox add-ons so much!!)
Someone posted this in a comment on another post of LK-99: Wouldn't the first step be verification before replication? I.e. have the original authors send out some LK-99 samples to other researchers to at least confirm "Yes, this thing is a high temperature superconductor". Wouldn't matter even that much if it were made with unicorn dust: it would be proof that high temperature superconductors are even possible, which is itself a huge, huge deal.

After that replication of production of LK-99 would of course be critical, but just proving it exists should alone be enough for grand celebration.
Something that I find hard to understand is why there is superconductivity without cooper pairs; granted my understanding is related to more traditional superconductors and I'm not really very knowledgeable about the cutting edge high-Tc stuff.
Spirited Away is going to be too scary and too complicated for a lot of littler kids.
IMO the best hedges against Googles web monopoly at the moment are Apple and Microsoft, not Mozilla.

Apple because of Safari (duh) and Microsoft because they are possibly the only company that could reasonably maintain a hard Chromium fork in the case of Google going crazy.

Unfortunately all three of them are more or less aligned on this issue of remote attestation so I don't really see a path forward.

Firefox just doesn't have the market share to matter. If everyone had switched to it 10 years ago there might have been a chance but the goose is cooked.
What if I still do it though? I would seriously consider applying if they could just ignore my usage entirely.

Anyways, good on them for a step in the right direction.
