A study of poison control calls in the U.S. found the number of melatonin poisoning–related calls increased six times from 2012 to 2021. Of these calls, more than 4,000 teens and children were hospitalized and two died.

Signs of melatonin overdose include excessive sleepiness, vomiting and trouble breathing. Other side effects of both low and high doses of melatonin can include headaches, excessive sleepiness, blood pressure changes, gastrointestinal problems, changes in other hormone levels and mood problems,

Agree 99% except this statement:

> Embrace duplication - don't unnecessary add loops or abstractions

I’ll usually make a function or perhaps tiny class as soon as I start reusing bits of code.

Apart from that, agree as stated. At my previous job (Python shop), a lot of the data engineers came from a Java background, and had a tendency to think top-down. Many things were over engineered ‘just because we might need it’:

- Factory classes used only once or twice in entire code base

- Lets make an AbstractReaderInterface because we might want to abstract the file type or location later (while 100% of files are Parquet on S3)

I’ve really enjoyed using dataclasses and Pydantics BaseModels prolifically, and adding type hints (coupled with type checks in CI).

Model the data, write a well structured imperative workflow, set up CI, write unit tests, enforce typing. Add OOP if needed, then close ticket.

You don't speak for all developers, at least not me. In particular, having a working dev environment that accurately represents prod just handed to you, instead of trying to rig up something locally is actually kinda nice. It matters greatly what you're working on. If you're building a local C++ application, a devbox is going to be wildly inappropriate, but for a SaaS company where prod is a untangleable mess; databases and queues and microservices, it's infinitely more efficient to gave me a box already spun up that's a good enough faxscimile of prod. Bonus points for seeing the DB with test info. In IT, if a user comes to you with a broken mouse, do you try and fix it, or do you just give them a new one and get them back to work asap, and take the mouse in the back and fix it later? Same principle. If the dev box isn't working, it's far easier to spin up a new one rather than debugging on someone's laptop.

Dev boxes don't have to mean standardizing on One True Editor (although everyone knows that's vim), as long as you can get to the source, typically via ssh, and edit it, whatever you want to use is just fine.
> RH is a for profit company. If something they do is a money sink it would be stupid to keep it going.

It was their choice to take on the "money sink" in the first place. Failing to plan ahead and deliver on your promises is bad business and damages your reputation in the community as well.

> If you perhaps dislike for-profit companies

Now you're just jumping to wild conclusions, all because I think RH is pants on head stupid (from both a community and business perspective) for shutting down CentOS and going back on their past promises. Essentially, Red Hat is taking a sizeable business risk by shutting down their inbound funnel's flywheel to capture as much value as possible in the short term. This screams of short-term thinking. We will see if their gamble pays off.

There are indeed some obvious questions left. Haven’t looked at the study, but the article does not mentioned taking into account reward or perceived fairness of reward allocation.

One of the most important life lessons for me was on a good work ethic: high quality output, attention to details, commit and deliver, honesty, and, yes, go extra mile. And then later the last one got updated: go extra mile, if it is appreciated.

Is it possible that a non-white worker is more likely to believe that extra effort is not gonna be appreciated. So there maybe a causal relationship between willing to go extra mile and perceived fairness of reward allocation.
I would be annoyed if I started getting so much melatonin from my food that my nightly 0.3 mg melatonin stopped making me sleepy. And I imagine everyone else would be annoyed when they stopped getting sleepy at night from their own melatonin. (Apparently 0.1 - 0.3 mg is what we produce naturally?)

Yeah MDN is the de-facto reference guide for web frameworks. W3schools feels like beginner tutorials. For me, I want “what happens if I pass undefined as the second arg to this function” and w3schools doesn’t answer that.

Is anyone familiar with a solid open source printer hardware project?

Given all of the issues with printers over the years (driver compatibility, ink cartridge drm, things like the above post), I’m curious if there is a reason open source printer hardware is not more common.

My assumption would be the complexity of the print mechanism / tolerances / balancing.

Here is a reply from the Mastodon thread that seems more plausible:

> @steeph @netspooky They're not hiding it, they're getting you to set up the printer over wifi, and only use the USB port after that. It seems if you use the USB port straight away it'll only print up to 20 pages then stop. They do this to get you to opt into hp+ and lock the printer in to use official toner. That's why the printer is so cheap
I’ll always have a soft spot for Clojure. It’s the only Lisp I’ve been paid to write applications in. Naturally I’ve written plenty of Elisp. I also use SBCL for personal scripts and data exploration, but that’s always been in support of delivering a solution in some other language.

While, as is to be expected, I don’t agree with every decision made for Clojure, I find it to be an entirely pleasant Lisp to work with.

So, kudos to Mr. Hickey, and thanks for sneaking Lisp back into corporate America!
I've had AT&T Fiber in 2 different states and it's been an awesome product. I think they did a really good job with it and it's still improving.

Very little software is developed with actual malice, but a monomaniacal pursuit of profit without regard for the costs it imposes on others is another matter entirely.
YES! This is exactly my experience. Even if I do stuff myself it is often very hard to get to consistency, there are almost always more variables in play than the ones that I'm initially aware of. I've seen seasoned pros driven to despair by things that 'worked in the lab' but that they could not replicate outside of it for want of a simple oversight. Sometimes the line between success and failure is hair-thin, you can be almost there and never realize it.
Did Red Hat write perl? Any of the GNU coreutils? Any part of the compilers used to produce the binaries?

There is this view that RedHat is somehow doing something so indispensable; but really they are curating a collection of software, written wholly and completely by other people and released under GPL2 or similar licenses.

That somehow this gives them the ability to supercede the licenses that Red Hat, themselves, agreed to when downloading, compiling and distributing the Linux kernel and related software... just seems ridiculous.

So many are commenting, but forgetting that the full measure of legality is seen in courtrooms. It's unlikely that a successful defense in court can be mounted due to IBM's deep pockets, if we are realistic about it.

My hope is that Red Hat gets the full 'Bud Light' treatment instead, and simply ceases to be much of a force in the marketplace.

EDIT to add, here is the actual text of GPL v2 license... https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.en.html
AFAIK the main difference is in certain provisions designed to block the use of patents to restrict the fundamental freedoms that GPL allows to the user. The main drawback is that it's incompatible with GPLv2-only software, but for new software it doesn't seem to be a problem.

Also, maybe A-GPL could be a good license here. It adds a provision that if the user accesses the code remotely (as on a server), you should share the code too. The default GPL only requires that if you distribute the binary.

PS. not a lawyer, would be happy to be corrected if something I said was wrong
Even with the sticker, there's also a USB logo visible. It seems like this is not HP trying to trick the user into using wifi by hiding usb, but just letting them know that this thing supports wifi.
Printing is hard. Printing fast is harder. The main reason printers still suck, 40-odd years later, is because it's really hard, at least in the consumer market, where you don't expect regular service, and there's a race to the bottom in terms of price.
> you are only entitled to the source if you are a user of said software

Sure. But you are entitled to have certain freedoms with that software. These freedoms include running as many instances you'd like for whatever purpose, and giving away copies of that software for other people to use. So the constructive result of these freedoms is that the cost of software is anchored around the cost of distribution, rather than an arbitrary cost set by the developer.

Now personally, I think it would be fantastic if someone were able to come up with some sensible pay-to-use libre license that still retained most of the freedom. The libre community is desperately missing straightforward funding like the proprietary software ecosystem. But it would be necessary to reduce freedom to do that, and it's not particularly clear how to best do that specifically. Any concept of "license instance" to charge based on results in assumptions about how the software is run, that basically undermines the ability to run it on a new type of thing. If the license is per core, then about "serverless"? Or let's say someone forks the software and makes substantive changes - does the original maintainer get to stick around charging rent despite not continuing development?

But what Redhat is doing here really isn't really a full on attempt at that. Given the works are still GPL and whatnot, I don't think they'll end up making any more than a speed bump for a new community bug-for-bug compatible distribution to gain popularity the way CentOS did.

And heck, it still remains to be seen whether threatening to terminate an orthogonal contract for exercising one's rights under the GPL ends up constituting an "additional restriction". If that was instead a monetary penalty for breach of contract, we would certainly say it does.
Does this have Julia bindings?
From what little I know of solid state chemistry — which is not a lot — I do know that when mixing powders that don’t melt, grinding them with a mortar and pestle is not generally good enough. A ball mill is much better, but still may not be sufficient. An even better approach is to precipitate both reagents out of solution together for nano-scale mixing.

I’d like to see this redone with a much finer grind and thorough mixing.

Not all countries with large rail networks have great suburban public transport either; the UK comes to mind.

Even in a mostly suburban metropolitan area, most people are still quite a ways from the main airport, which is usually on the extreme of one side of a metropolitan area. You can have multiple train stations per city because of their much lower footprint and nuisance level, and generally speaking most of the time savings in rail vs air is access time to the station/airport. (Truly high speed services can just skip the suburban stations if there truly is demand for this, but generally speaking the time for an additional station is measured in single-digit minutes.)
