Some schools have excellent marketing departments. I have some exposure myself thanks to that, but it does seem like they disproportionately take up the attention space despite sometimes not offering anything new or interesting.
I find I learn best, by doing.

I also like to always be working on stuff that ships.

That said, my expertise misses some of the stuff that can only be discovered in a purely academic workflow, and not all “do somethings” are good[0].

You seem to be describing working capital (business focused) rather than payday loan (consumer focus).
What particular area of your competence do you wish to improve? For inspiration I can warmly recommend this article by Julia Evans: https://jvns.ca/blog/2018/09/30/some-possible-career-goals/

Reading that might be useful in order to narrow your search.
I trust that immigrants are making rational decision because immigrating is a big commitment.
What play on words?
Then a "dimension" would not be a dimension as defined by math and physics.
1) We have a HP all-in-one laser printer/scanner. I wouldn't recommend it, but it's good enough for documents. The one feature I like about it is that it you can scan to a USB stick, which is nice because the scanner software on both Mac and Windows is often unreliable.

2) We have very few categories, so it's usually clear where something goes. If not, I just pick a random folder, usually I search with Spotlight (full text search) anyway.
Everyone thinks the things they don't personally enjoy or benefit from are the ripest targets for regulation (if not outright elimination). Just like everyone thinks that their (or quite often their parents') choices of where to live and how to get around should be easy for everyone else to adopt. Sometimes those preferences happen to be consistent with environmental or other concerns, but that's rarely the real motivation. People just like to look down on other people. The difference is apparent when you consider that the "activists" have generally not thought for one minute about what it would really take to make their prescription real, or what secondary costs (including environmental ones) that would incur.

QE is a separate process from the usual act of money creation by banks making loans, it's best to consider it as an out-of-the-ordinary manual intervention by the central bank where they create new central bank money ad hoc and use that to purchase assets on the market. The normal process of money creation is banks creating new commercial bank money when making loans to individuals and companies.

> I have this impression that the area has not been well governed (for more than a few years a t a time) for millennia; because people in other areas of the world find it convenient that it not be.

That’s an odd take. They’re a mess largely because of internal factors , not external ones. They were a mess before external interventions. Not saying it helped, but it’s not wholly responsible for the conditions either.

Mildly related, I remember watching an anime some time ago where the plot was that hostile architecture made its residents go crazy and start murdering each other. I sent it to my architect sister and we had a good chuckle.
We have not even a single person directly involved in these supposed programs who is willing to testify.

We have not even a single video that isn't uselessly low-quality, clearly fake, or of something ordinary.

We have not even a single shred of physical evidence.

We just have the same thing we've always had: a bunch of people telling stories which cannot be verified, imply the existence of evidence they cannot produce, and which—purely coincidentally, I'm sure—make them famous. None of these stories has ever led to hard evidence.

Wake me up when you have something to show me. I will take any evidence beyond tall tales.
"Boundaries" is one of the more important quick talks I know of, and I've sent it to most juniors I've worked with.
That's exactly my point. It's clear both from banking history as well as general history and experience living in a communist country for a while.
There’s no mention of Azure on the Bitwarden status page.
These are great points but I do think this article is primarily about local NOx, not global CO2.
Jefferson advocated for the gradual emancipation of all slaves in the United States. He very well knew slavery was an abomination. Nevertheless, he enjoyed its fruits.
I use the command palette in VSCode frequently. Almost everything is available as a keybinding, or with a few clicks in nested menus, but I've only committed a subset to memory. The command palette means I only need remember the name of something to quickly find it again.

The Textual CP can also provide dynamic commands. Like opening a file. If I wanted to open "foo.py" I could hit "ofp" to match the "open foo.py" command (or any other matching fuzzy search). That's likely to be faster than a file open dialog.
I've been using a "command palette" in the same app since the mid 90s, on lots of different operating systems, and I've never really found that it's a lazy way to make commands available. Mostly what I want to use is available from a menu, and/or available from keyboard bindings, but if I wish I can also pull up the command palette and run the command directly -- sometimes that's handy if I personally know what the command is called but I can't remember which menu it might be in, or what the key binding is.

Of course, it's not called a "command palette"; normally Emacs calls it `execute-extended-command`, and more commonly people will refer to it as the minibuffer.

But that's just me doing the angry-old-man-yells-about-ancient-useful-UI thing. ;-)

Hey, that's where I live!

Terrible history around our libraries. Happy it got rebuilt though. You can visit the Ladeuze tower, has quite a nice view of the city.
That's fair, and interesting. I don't think it takes away from the fact that cognitive flexibility is still the overarching emergent property that enables this.
I actually think it's not about the low level managers. I think those folks are more permissive than what senior leadership would like, hence these stupid tracking tools. If your report gets stuff done then you don't care that they are in the office. Senior leadership just sees a bunch of engineers who cost money and they want to maximize ROI. And, they see the bottom rung of managers enabling these slothful engineers to remain lazy, which is why these internal tracking tools are created.
I’m having trouble parsing this; I don’t think I made a prediction about the future.

The point was simpler than that: virtue, ariste, etc. is already a shared human value, one that people apply to their decision making processes already (including in democracies). Anybody asking us to consider it a “lost idea” is trying to sell something other than the thing we’ve already bought.
most people are just not ready to move away from their home/family. and even most of those that are would only move to a country where they speak the same language. that means germany or switzerland. and there it means places where they can find a job, which tends to be the larger more expensive cities.

so despite the cost of living, it is really hard to find other cities that offer the same quality of life at less cost.

in short, moving within europe, while possible is not as easy as moving within the US. and moving outside the EU is even more difficult, so very few do it.

also, vienna has massive growth in the last decade, but i think most of those people come from places that are even worse.
It’s a piss poor reason to ban something because “it serves no utilitarian value. But we aren’t going to fight For changes to the much larger commercial shipping industry that is causing the same type of harm”
Interesting article about something they might do, or we might do, or maybe would improve our lives.

Zero chance of me joining the club. Too lazy, too content, too old. I wonder if the author is doing more than writing about it. Or is that 'doing something'? I suppose so.
You should listen to Ezra Klein's interview with Leslie Kean, the author of that story. It's pretty comical.
I think you're describing the difference between commercial bank money and central bank money, but I'm not sure.
The law does not in fact take that seriously, in the least.
Abstract

Quantum biological tunnelling for electron transfer is involved in controlling essential functions for life such as cellular respiration and homoeostasis. Understanding and controlling the quantum effects in biology has the potential to modulate biological functions. Here we merge wireless nano-electrochemical tools with cancer cells for control over electron transfer to trigger cancer cell death. Gold bipolar nanoelectrodes functionalized with redox-active cytochrome c and a redox mediator zinc porphyrin are developed as electric-field-stimulating bio-actuators, termed bio-nanoantennae. We show that a remote electrical input regulates electron transport between these redox molecules, which results in quantum biological tunnelling for electron transfer to trigger apoptosis in patient-derived cancer cells in a selective manner. Transcriptomics data show that the electric-field-induced bio-nanoantenna targets the cancer cells in a unique manner, representing electrically induced control of molecular signalling. The work shows the potential of quantum-based medical diagnostics and treatments.

That series certainly had its problems, but the ideas in it were sound.
Yeah this is a good point. I've done some work with local experts to do tree ID from drone images over rainforest and there were several species where they would need to see the underside of the leaves to get better than the family.
Why the US? Why not some other part of your own uni?

I was able to do other subject modules for course credit as an undergrad, and helped with the research of a group in that area a little, and got my name on a paper.

Also I raised seed funding for a project in my main subject area that I worked on in parallel with my main course and the above.

Note: the above made me stand out a bit and I was thus unpopular at times... I still am. B^>
That's fine, but you asked a question and I responded to it. Whether you hold a position, that's not really my business, I believe you when you say you don't.
It seems like the attitude is basically "now that I know these things are possible, I don't see any reason why they shouldn't be inevitable". But it's possible to do lots of things that fall somewhere inside or outside of this or that person's ethical boundaries, except that we realized there are some things that are deleterious to the wellbeing of humans over time.

I can't tell if it's a refusal to believe that large-scale negative changes that have already begun have an inertia that makes them continue to make things worse, or an inability to conceptualize eventual realities beyond certain time horizons, or else some hardline "I need to satisfy my urges whatever anyone else says" thing... but it's disappointing that folks who get so much benefit from being part of society so vocally and proudly refuse to participate in making a positive contribution to it.
Depends on the 2FA app and where it backs its codes up.
>Having comments such as "nice", "good work" or "great app" does not help the developer, in any way,

Unless, of course, some of those comments lift the author's spirits, leaving them more motivated to improve it?

No, I don't want Show HN threads to become a sea of "nice" responses. But as someone who has only occasionally gotten to a point of even posting to Show HN, I'll say I also appreciated the lightweight "great work" type comments.
Also reminds me of the Power Query M language - semantically anyway
The paper covers data on gini coefficients and sees no evidence of its reduction.
If you were making a scriptable game, V8 would be like Lua. It handles the Lua language and some of the basic functionality of it, but beyond that you’d need to integrate it with ur engine.
Debt-slavery which interestingly was banned under Ceasar if I'm not mistaking.
"Need" is such a loaded word... let's just find better fuels for cruise ships, let local communities decide if they want them to dock etc. and then people can continue enjoy cruises if they want to.
Yeah. If iOS gets sideloading support, it could get a Termux equivalent. If that happens, I'm sold.
Great points to consider.

Now consider viewing the Tic-Tac video footage (released by the Pentagon) along with with interview of the radar operator during that same mission and then the GIMBAL/GOFAST video footage (released by the Pentagon).

Finally, there is a CSPAN video where two former-fighter pilots and a former DoD intelligence director testified in front of Congress about these topics.

Then go down your list and see which of those 11 options fit the best.

If the climate change is caused by humans, that is more likely due to deforestation and destruction to nature.

CO2 is used by plants, and plants produce oxygen. If you kill more plants and build concrete cities over where they were...you could get your global warming.

My sources for book recommendations are mainly newspapers, magazines, friends, Fediverse and HN.

Whenever I want to save a recommendation I just add it to Pinboard, with the tags ‘book’ and ‘wislist’.

So when I feel the urge to order new books I just look at those tags and order some.
It is important to distinguish between two kinds of conspiracy theories:

1. Conspiracies where there is evidence of a conspiracy (like sworn testimony from conspirators)

2. Conspiracies where there is no evidence of a conspiracy, i.e. the hypothesis is that it is a successful conspiracy.

Type 2 conspiracy theories are are like invisible pink unicorns: by design they are unfalsifiable, and hence unscientific, and so can be dismissed on those grounds alone.

Contrary to popular opinion, extraordinary claims do not require extraordinary evidence to merit serious consideration, they merely require some evidence that cannot be accounted for by more mundane explanations. Weird video artifacts don't qualify.
"Sat by" is doing an awful lot of work there. My recollection was not that many Americans actually "sat by" - it was quite divisive. Lazy support like those "support our troops" bracelets was of course positively supporting the war and thus shares in responsibility, but that was by no means the whole country.
I guess "drops a bomb" is a little over the top but the rest of the title are just facts. Salesforce really did ask people to come back, and he did indeed say he doesn't work well in an office.
Okay but it is a political position. Gay marriage has only been around for ten years
Sounds terrible: get the money then do the work?

These days we work, THEN get the money.

Maybe capital has gotten smarter about when to pay labor - only after the fact.
> I'd like to think that. But the crackpots will sieze [sic] on any evidence

A little respect goes a long way towards having constructive conversations with people. A good place to start is accepting that perhaps the people we are talking to are not crackpots, and that that what they want is not all that different from what we want.
Patterns tell stories.
> Automatically managed, application-transparent, physical denormalisation entirely managed by the database is something I am very, very interested in.

Not that odd of a take. It's difficult to have internal stability when you face externally-sourced "reorganizations" every generation or so.
Notion too. Slash commands (command pallete) provide a quick and easy way to execute actions without navigating through menus. I would argue that slash commands are much more discoverable than keyboard or graphical menus since they present of the option for documentation snippets.
I saved up money, didn't have children, and quit my job to find the time to work on passion projects. I don't think I would be able to do it with a family, children, and while working a full-time job -- at least not past my 20s unless I had extremely strong health/fitness habits.
A fence appeared which blocked my path to the grocery store. So I started taking my screwdriver to the grocery store so I could dismantle the fence enough to slip though.

Six months later, there was a gate there. I only had to dismantle it maybe four or five times.

Direct action works.
Semi-related: Yeah what happened to Worldcat? It seems almost abandoned, or?
You are correct, I've tested it with my own domains. It does not know the ones running with a wildcard certificate for example.
Spring Boot has given me a lot of frustration over the years (it is the framework I started with) too much magic but after a few years of using different tools and frameworks I find it hard to deny its productivity.

I wonder what things will look like in 10 years. My feeling is there is a lot of room for improvement still.

Oh yeah, I had to write a simple but long Prometheus query.

> [Correctly lists the first fifteen Elements]

> # ... continue for each bucket

> This would be for individual buckets, and you'd have to add more lines for each additional bucket in your range.Given that you have a wide range of buckets, writing this manually could be quite tedious. This is why pre-computing these values with recording rules in Prometheus might be a more scalable solution, but the above should give you an idea of how you could do this in a more manual fashion.

Arguing with the AI who of the two of us has to do the tedious work.
> but if you consider each person an imperfect detector of information, then the more people reporting a thing, the more accurate the picture becomes thanks to sensor fusion/the Kalman filter:

Not necessarily. Adding a bunch of extra imperfect sensors is not the same as adding imperfect sensors with imperfect interpretations. The storage medium that interpretation is stored in is also imperfect. An accounting of that interpretation will change non-linearly depending on how many times it's described and how recently from the event it's described.

Adding more and more of these recountings don't necessarily mean you've got better data.
I bailed almost immediately on reading the article when I saw who it was, but was gladdened to see the opening quote at least suggests these founding fathers recognized natural aristocracy as an insidious hard to repep threat.

> The artificial aristocracy is a mischievous ingredient in government, and provision should be made to prevent its ascendancy.
Here are some boring and obvious thought ending dismissals.

Grabby Aliens concept by Robin Hanson is an interesting new take on UFOs. Start with “if they are UFOs, what could we reason about them from their behaviour?”.

See https://youtube.com/watch?v=cQq2pKNDgIs

“It might be unlikely but it’s not crazy unlikely”.
By that reductive standard, everything and nothing are luxuries, depending on the context. Both OPs said “excessive luxury” and the context is: the regions/economies cruise ships generally operate in; western, developed countries.
I often wonder what problems could be solved in the world if so much free programming time wasn’t wasted on leetcode.

My take away was also bitterness and jealousy, the arguments just don't really add up to banning cruises.
I see that as a bonus! Upvote, or nothing.
I see too many posts "Why the down votes...", "I don't understand why you're being downvoted...".
Talent at fabrication and wisdom/access to adequate PPE's are almost entirely uncorrelated
>I have more faith in Bitwarden's ability to secure their servers than I do in my ability to secure my own server. Bitwarden has people who work on this full time, and I do not.

First: E2EE. You're thinking in terms of a web gui, not a E2EE client-server where the server itself is untrusted. If done properly (and I've seen no indication Bitwarden's isn't) that would mean that server compromise is irrelevant anyway beyond uptime.

But second in general: Bitwarden has people attacking it full time, and necessarily must be on the public internet with untrusted clients. And I do not. One's own server doesn't need to be on the public internet at all, you can have 100% of access exclusively through a Wireguard or other secure VPN. You have completely control of every single client, because they're all yours. Server blocked from internet entirely, update it out of band, or at least restrict what it can talk to to exclusively upstream update servers. This massively reduces attack surface. If only trusted clients can access something, then compromising it means going through a trusted client. But if the trusted client is compromised in this scenario you're hosed regardless. The server is irrelevant.

There's lots of good reasons of course not to run your own thing, but the security aspect gets overdone with false equivalences. It's the equivalent of people pointing at what the likes of Amazon or Google or whomever have to do for database work. But while they have far more resources, they also have far more demands and requirements. Stuff that is very challenging at hyperscale can be done far more simply but still effectively at small/medium scale. It's not wrong to think about the tradeoffs, but worth being cautious of apples to watermelons comparisons.
Plasma KDE is probably your best bet if you want fractional scaling

>Bernie Sanders gets called "far left" or "socialist", but if he lived in Europe he'd be considered a pretty run-of-the-mill centre-left liberal.

Bernie Sanders views on healthcare and taxation would not be considered center in Europe. You’re repeating a ridiculous meme. Are you American?
