You are making a naive assumption here that there was no religion present in India before Buddha, and that after Buddha established his Dharma everyone should have abandoned their respective religions to take up Buddhism.

Ashoka converted to Buddhism and ruled almost the whole of the Indian subcontinent at one point. But that doesn't mean he converted all Hindus to Buddhist. Few Hindus may have converted, but 'land of Buddha' also happens to be the 'land of Sanatana Dharma' where there are several other deities people worshiped and traditions people practiced.
If you've ever tried a pair of Gunnar ambers you'd know what real blue light filtering is. With them on, it's not a subtle effect. You see with an amber tint. The monitor just appears less noisy. I've worked 12 hours straight in them in the past after which I'm physically and mentally tired but my eyes aren't. Without them I can't work, which is exactly how you know they're working.

If you're a programmer just looking at text all day, they are worth every penny. If you're a designer and color perception is important to you, you're out of luck.

Not affiliated to Gunnar in any way. Just a happy customer of 6 years.
Can there be somewhat standardized CLAs, along the lines of Apache/ MIT... licenses?
An important point that shouldn’t be looked over: “ …a quarter are allowed to stay fully remote.”

This means that around 25% of workers are still fully remote. Companies (and us) have to realize that remote is not suitable for everyone and for all positions. I’m one of the lucky few working fully remote in my company, but I think that a good “healthy” distribution for software related companies would be: 20-30% on site, 20-30% remote and the rest 40-60% hybrid.
I use an adblocker, DarkReader, and reader mode, because of my ADHD. Even minor distractions or asinine GUI "features" can make it impossible for me to focus on the content of the page.

Always so mesmerizing and fun to read these descriptions about life in the South Pole.
Pure truth.
When somebody says that Chinese/Japanese is hard because of kanji - just show them that English is crazy on almost the same level.

Kanji has more radicals but some of them only on top, some on bottom, some on left or right.
And you don't even need to learn them all - rare radicals remembered as "this strange thing that appears only in X"
LoRa® is entirely proprietary and patented. We need to focus on better, open alternatives.
A big reason for English being what it is in terms of pronunciation is exactly because of non-Anglophonic influence on English.

The number of non-native speakers of English is twice the number of native speakers. At that point, there's no such thing as "an original pronunciation".

SwaggerUI/OpenAPI support this to add your own users API credentials to the api call examples, if you care to implement.

as a develoer, is just a nice touch that I can copy paste an example of code snippet and since I'm logged in they can give it to me already with a valid api key.

ymmv

They also allow to output examples in as many langugages/sdk's as you need too
It is a lovely story.

You can get annoyed by incompetence and lack of determination. Sitting here in your day-to-day job where your frame of reference revolves exactly around that.

But try removing that from you head for a little while and picture these young couple doing something different and living life. Hurting noone.
I guess this was already discussed elsewhere on HN, but I'm pretty confident that the world wouldn't be better with endless human live.

What universities have this policy?
And in turn the Islamic Mughal Empire of the subcontinent that destroyed this Buddhist priesthood was in turn replaced by that of the British. Indians still largely follow British ways even up to today. What do Indians themselves consider better? I don't know.
If your testing infrastructure is so anemic that a sorting algorithm (of all things) is hard to subject to e.g. property-based/fuzzing tests then it'd probably be worth it to expand that before doing anything else.

I dunno what FreeBSD's test infrastructure is, but I'm just saying that "it needs testing" is not a good reason not to change to a better sort algorithm in this case.
This is a hypothetical of a hypothetical.

NYT is thinking about suing. Ok, how is this newsworthy? Did NYT share why it would sue? On what legal basis? Not yet. Lots of hypotheticals though.

So if they so, they might win.

This seems like the web site equivalent of a 20 minute YouTube video complaining about how someone might be upset.

I look forward to NYT suing and the case being resolved. It will help to have some legal determinations.
Honestly even if that doesn't do much for most those things are great for me, I have a migraine-adjacent visual issue which gives me photophobia and lowering the colour temperature of light in general helps with that.
Agreed, not completely on duckdb but we used it for consolidating billing data from 10+ ERP systems and it works, so I see his point. Just to add to his points:

- Integrations are still one of the hardest things in Enterprise IT. Snowflake/Databricks/etc in fact add to the number of systems to integrate, they make this problem worst most of the times

- Governance in a self-service data ecosystem gets complicated fast, especially if you need to stay compliant with data privacy, gdpr, etc.. And amazingly again neither Snowflake nor Databricks solve this. In fact, they make it worst by sucking up budget away from governance initiatives
Most hoaxes are alarming indeed.

Would be interesting to know how many of these visa applications eventually get rejected. Also, maybe some sort of deposit to be returned when participant shows up would discourage abuse.

Of course they do not need it. 80% of companies can also do without AWS, they "just" need to hire the people themselves, and developer a core competency running and administering those services. It doesn't automatically mean that it makes financial sense for said company.

I guess "don't need" == "must not use" when you're selling yourself as filling that self-hosted gap.
Lightsails: A roadmap to interstellar flight (2015)
The general idea behind capitalism is that the market provides alternatives. Why would there only be evil giant corporations whose applications are so bad that they would be trumped by those great ancient, obsolete applications? There is also room for small vendors to provide innovative new alternative, and for the open source community to try their hand.

The reality is that on the Apple platforms these ancient, obsolete applications are not available and instead there are new, modern, better applications because there is a market for them. While on the Windows platform it’s a big, inconsistent insecure mess because everyone is clinging to obsolete, unsupported software that is barely good enough.

By the way, keep pressing that button you think is the disagree button!
Strange how Teslas aren't designed for either cold (many parts freeze) or hot climates (massive sunroof makes it unbearable)
Im also responding to the "do the things you fear" bit: I think you are right. As to why this works for some and worsens it for others, I think that depends on how you approach this.

In my experience these confrontational situations need to strike a certain place between "too easy" and "too hard". It hardly helps to throw people into situations they can't handle again and again. A more gradual approach via small wins is the way to go IMHO, with a focus on avoiding the learned avoidance patterns, heh. There's also the aspect of the perception: one needs to be able to accept small victories and see them as the improvement that they are.

But all of this is way easier said than done, especially if you have to deal with it all by yourself.

So while I think that you are technically right, I think it's easy to misunderstand for people as "just toughen up" (not implying that's what you meant, but there is this to many people unknown middle part of it that I wrote about).
I had a 2001 Subaru Outback with frameless windows, they didn't roll down at all when I opened the door with the 100% mechanical handle.
That’s Teslas in a nutshell though. Myriad usability oapercuts in service of whatever flashy brain fart feature set Elon demanded of his dream cars. I refuse to believe that any competent professional would build half the shit I hear about in Teslas were they not held at employment gunpoint by a “visionary”.
It’s hard to say where the boundary of application lies, I believe. The paper is naturally concise, and experiments typically select potent examples to clarify the phenomena, economically. Without the authors’ clarifying contextual anecdotes, I believe there is a lot of room to interpret.
Trivia reference: Kenneth Branagh refused to dub himself in the scenes in Tenet filmed backwards, so he learned to talk backwards the dialogue in these.

No there is still reasons to learn a foreign language - it enhances your thinking.
I’m currently learning a new language (slowly) and it changes the way I think about certain concepts. The further into it I get, the more I notice it - it’s like an expansion in the brains processing abilities (or at least that’s how it feels to me).
Additionally, there are just some things I think in the new language - that I would just not think or say in English because it would not make sense.

> To me it looks similar to how Islam included Jesus: making him one of the most prominent prophets, while at the same time denying the core tenet of Christian doctrine (that he'd be the son of god, unus et trinus)

One has to look how Islam treated the faiths around it when Islam obtained power. It was mostly genocide and iconoclasm at scale not seen before. Even acknowledgement of Jesus in the Koran is more to enable easier conversion into Islam. The concept of conversion for example existed in Islam.

Buddhism deals with far subtle and much more complex ideas like nature of reality. You can see a detailed discussion here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAZPWu084m4 (Note that the monk talking here is a Vedantist, talking with great respect and reverence to Buddha/Buddhism and on Buddha's birthday).

> Whatever the result, it's important to respect one's choice - if buddhists reject the place that modern Hinduism tries to fit them into, because they think the patch is not enough, that's their call and there is no point insisting otherwise.

I think that is a great analogy, but note that Hinduism has not tried to "fit buddhism" into anything, Hinduism only point out that Buddhism's fork is pretty much similar to many other forks of Hinduism which have not been identified as separate from Hinduism.

Neither Hindu nor Buddhist philosophy however cares about such distinctions or boxes as they are completely irrelevant to their objective, it is mostly for people to argue. (This is not true for Islam and Christianity, Islam denies you heaven if you havent accepted Islam before death, Christianity does the same, hence it matters deeply whether you are Christian or Muslim, mere believing in the God wont help.)

Overall "melting pot" mentality is a good thing and must be encouraged and a good thing. It helps people find common ground and love each other rather than needlessly quarrel and fight.
I think the number one topic should be actually doing it at all. Too many people just talk about getting exercise, or endlessly watch videos about it, or endlessly read blogs and articles and guides, but never actually do it, or do very little.

This post might be a little biased since the author holds an Indian passport. He tend to blame the conference organizers to help Indian people to organize the transfer (VISA talking) to their conference. The thing I'd like to suggest to conference organizers is to set up an online mirror that might be used for people that, temporarily, can't get a VISA.

If you blame conference organizers for some stupid rules about VISA, I think it's a little bit too much.. But maybe my opinion is biased too.
We make a product that smaller companies use; it’s much simpler to use and no consultants needed. We notice that even in bigger corps, departments import into our system and use that because they find the de facto systems painful to use and they don’t actually need that much power, ever.
This problem of late announcements also applies to travelers that don't need visa. Recently, a major CS conference announced accepted papers two months before the conference date. Since it was a large federated conference located in a tourist destination in Florida, in the middle of the season, traveling from Europe was particularly expensive when buying tickets on a short notice.

And there's the additional downside that it was too late to apply to workshops and posters at co-located conferences. Many major conferences take place in the US, which means that traveling just for a workshop paper might not be feasible for researchers based outside of the US due to university policies and budget constraints. Thus, it's a good opportunity to participate and publish additional results while you are already there.
I have a CAA on my GPL project so that I have the right to start releasing it as MIT, that is, more Free. Also so I can dual-license it to a corporation and make a modicum of money from the software that is 98% my work. I absolutely never intend to make future versions non-free (and I don't even have the right to make already released versions non-free). Do you find this disturbing?
I don't understand how Apple have got this update process so wrong. I recently switched from a Ubuntu work laptop (that had live Kernel patching and occasional non-forced reboots) to big whole image OSX needing to update at the worst possible moment.
Isn’t the control pane and everything else running on physically separate nodes for that reason already? (By default)
The statement "at least one of them is a boy" (<=> "I don't have two daughters") is a little more subtle than "I tell you the gender of one of them" since the former excludes one out of four possibilities (FF, thus letting us update our belief on the single-sex question to a third) while the latter implies fixing the gender of a specific one of the children (without specifying which one, and in either case the probability of the other being M is still a half, thus not giving us information towards the single sex question).

So if you tell me the gender of a specific one of them, say the youngest, then I haven't learned anything that makes my subjective probability go down that the other is the same gender.

I think in real life you will come across the second kind of statement (e. g. "my oldest is a girl") than the first kind (e. g. "I do not have two boys")

But it does not feel too weird to me that "at least one of them is a girl" will reduce the probability of the pair being single-sex to a third. In fact if you further tell me that both "an least one of them is a girl" and "at least one of them is a boy", the probability of the pair being single-sex will go to zero and this seems perfectly reasonable
I think the author means 80% of existing databricks/snowflake customers, since they say “the rest are overpaying”.

Fair assumption.

> [...] laptop [...]

If you said this because of any message from me, then I probably should have given more context.

This was for a desktop PC upgrade, in a Corsair 5000D case. The OS (FreeBSD), user files, and almost everything is in M.2 (two of them, in a ZFS mirror). I just wanted a mechanical drive where I could send ZFS snapshots, local git mirrors, and some other rarely-read rarely-overwritten files (stuff like also videos/epubs/etc that I occasionally serve over HTTP). The purpose is just having as much storage as cheap as possible, and more conveniently than an external USB HDD (which I also have and use for backups, but I don't want to keep it connected to the PC).

The initial plan was to use 3.5" HDDs because the 5000D case technically supports them, but while actually building it and saw the PSU cables my noob lazy self thought how much of a PITA it would be to actually use 3.5" HDDs (or how ugly it would look if I put them in a different place than intended).

So the plan changed to using the 2.5" mounts, and here I am now.

I'm currently working on building a NAS (separate from this Corsair 5000D desktop build), so soon-ish I should be able to just use that NAS for these files, and use the free 2.5" mounts for SSDs to increase the system ZFS pool.

Hopefully this additional context clarifies things.

Apparently misinformation:

- have implications for poverty eradication efforts and the global economy

- an have an adverse impact on access to quality education

- can compound global hunger

- undermined public health measures and vaccination drives

- seek to systematically subjugate women by silencing them andpushing them out of the public sphere

- about the safety of drinking water and sanitation can have dangerous health consequences

- are undermining the urgent transition to cleaner forms of energy production

- can have a detrimental impact on innovation

- are polarizing societies and targeting already marginalized and vulnerable communities

- denies or deflects attention away from the impacts of human activity on the environment

- is undermining efforts to take urgent action to address the climate crisis

- can have a negative impact on efforts to conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources

- have been used to influence elections and public narratives and sow confusion

- can hinder meaningful partnerships to achieve the Goals, while resources diverted to address the problem can weaken efforts to leave no one behind

I wonder since 25 years or so why bubblesort is considered a viable sort at all. Putting aside its terrible complexity and thus performance, it is not even intuitive. For example, if you look at it, it is not how we humans sort things manually.

It is IMO an example of a "following the herd" confusion: some scientist wrote a paper (they must do it to survive, don't they), others mentioned it in a textbook (doesn't hurt to have more pages, huh), others put it in their other textbooks because, well, it was mentioned in the past, and this is how this abomination survives decades..
I'm an ordained soto zen practitioner and study under a transmitted teacher; most of my views quite closely follow what our founding teacher (Eihei Dogen) wrote.

If that doesn't make me a buddhist, I'm not sure what would :}

Zen is certainly a 'back to basics' movement; but you're quite incorrect so think that zen is separate from historical traditions of buddhism. The buddha sat Shikantaza just as we, all the 'fluff' came later. We are perhaps a 'back to basics' movement, but one that has a several thousand year lineage. Unless you feel Bodhidharma was a dubious modernist? :}

I say 'my practice' as I do not wish to speak for others even inside my group, let alone buddhists as whole.
These days you have to pay extra for security features like that.
This is about changing the sorting algoritm. No snark needed. It should be trivial to add a test for the current algorithm (whenever it was introduced) and to replace it afterwards. Heck, even keep running both for bisimulation testing.

I mean in English “th” ceally should be it’s own letter. It really has nothing to do with a “t” or an “h” and really should thought of as a single letter that just looks like two others. In many fonts, it really is because it’s a common ligature for aesthetic reasons.
what is the truth here?
In theory, I knew all of that... but I never quite put two and two together.

That's very insightful.

What I don't quite understand, though, is the lack of satiety even from American food not engineered like this. There's a big difference between basic foods like meats and vegetables between the industrial crops of the US and ones from local farms in less industrialized countries.

My hypothesis -- with zero evidence -- is that industrial foods are lower on some nutrient my body needs, and my body wants to eat to get enough.
I love my Model Y but yes, there are some features that are just bad design. More specifically, poorly thought out design.

Example: last December, we experienced a deep freeze. Temperatures of 6 F for several days. I had only taken ownership of my Model Y for a week or so. The doors became frozen shut. YouTube videos recommended applying a silicon spray to the crease, which of course would probably solve it later on, but wasn’t helping me in my current situation.

Later on during that deep freeze, a bizarre incident happened where the doors weren’t frozen shut but they actually froze OPEN and my poor kids were in the car with the door open waiting for the lock to thaw.

It would seem to me that a car designed in Northern California did not adequately take into account the weather in other regions.
