I was diagnosed with hypertension at 10. I am probably an edge case but after extensive testing they have yet to find a root cause for my high blood pressure.

They've concluded that continuing to study me will cause more stress and that I am otherwise healthy - I just need to continue taking my blood pressure medications.

The peugeotard way is basically a tradition stretching back to the '60s; for many, it's just an excuse to have an epic road trip. I remember reading about it in the '90s in an excellent Italian book, Vado verso il Capo - 13.000 km attraverso l'Africa (Feltrinelli, 1996) by Sergio Ramazzotti.

Thanks, I was initially surprised that they were encrypted but I can speculate on a few potential reasons:

- The Xbox was designed to be able to play online via Xbox Live (e.g. with Halo 2 that came out later in 2004), and they might have simply reused the network stack for System Link over LAN. I looked a little bit at Halo 2 system link, it uses the same system calls from the kernel but the protocol seems to be more complicated (e.g. the IV is never sent in plaintext, the two consoles derive it somehow). I haven't looked at Xbox Live, but Halo 2 could potentially use the same for System Link and Xbox Live.

- The Xbox also really tried to lock down its security in order to prevent game piracy and homebrew games. This might have been another attempt to reduce the attack surface.

- They also might have just wanted to keep their game protocols secret for trade secrets or simply avoiding scrutiny. In this case, we were able to create a kind of cheat, which they might have also wanted to avoid. Even though it is rarely an issue at LAN parties, it might have simply looked bad for the brand.

Yeah, block scoping is one of those "weird CS ideas" that I'm sure at some point early in Python's design was deemed too complicated for the intended audience, but is also quite a natural way to prevent some human errors. JavaScript made the same mistake and later fixed it (let/const).
> but no more databases

Sort of. Twice as many rails hosts means more DB connections which generally means more load/memory on the DB or more load/memory on the external connection pooler.

It's only a bit of incremental load, but it's easy to overlook how many other systems need to run to make Rails scale.

Whether the original study said so or not, that is absolutely how it was universally sold to the public. This [1] is a collection of various high profile individuals talking about the efficacy of the vaccines, why that means you won't carry the virus, you won't get sick, and and how that will completely stop the spread of COVID.

It's only as this very obviously failed to be the case that the metric was completely shifted to hospitalization/death. I'd also add this is about the time that the 'public messaging' swapped from talking about efficacy and other topics to outright vitriol and attacks on unvaccinated individuals, which is probably where the politicization of the topic began.

I mean, you did need feedback though - you read a comment on HN, which gave you the feedback, with upvotes on the comment indicating that it's probably an issue that more people care about.

One significant difference is that the feedback was "active", though: Someone actively decided to write the comment and other people probably actively decided to upvote it. I fully agree that this is a way better way of feedback than effectively putting up hidden cameras everywhere and surveiling every step of your users without them knowing.

The problem there is many uncontrollable factors contributing to the data. If engagement is found to be better with A on the day, does that mean B will never be better? It doesn't.

A/B testing is often conducted unscientifically or with insufficient sample size and timeframe.

Sometimes the cards fall where they fall, and your small UX tweak wasn't involved. It's tempting to conclude A/B testing delivered a valid result. As an experiment, if you deliberately made A and B identical, then A/B test as normal, you will still get a winner. They won't be equal.
One thing that people need to realise that you can use your body to trick your mind into doing things.

If your brain is anxious, you can consciously use breathing techniques to trick it into thinking you're calm. Box Breathing for example works pretty well. Or just taking 2-3 really deep slow breaths.

An anxious/nervous brain defaults to short shallow breaths for some reason.

I've thought about buying a pinball machine for a while, but haven't pulled the trigger. I think I would get bored of one machine after a short while, and then it would just sit there. I like pinball a lot and I think the design and build quality of many of the more recent games is fantastic. But, I'm not interested in collecting machines. Is anyone else in a similar situation?

You can do that if you want to risk a legal battle, but Youtube doesn't care about your legal battle until its over. The fact of the matter is that footage can be copyrighted and videographers have the right to protect their copyright. If I go film Trump giving a speech with the sole purpose of selling that material to news agencies and you decide to release that footage on your own platform, then you're at risk of infringing on that copyright. The only way to completely decide if you're infringing on their copyright is through a court case. Currently, outside of unique cases like "response videos," it's common for Youtube to side with the copyright owner. So I'm betting Youtube demonetized it for infringing on copyright.

I mean, the part where it's pure electric is what strikes me as a significant for other applications: this is an adaptation in logistics that can be rolled out independent of people's personal transport preferences.

Every bit of volume pretty directly can knock some ICE usage off the road, and more importantly because batteries are integral to the process it's pretty amenable to be running purely on renewables.

That's a hell of "technology which can just plain make everything better" possibility.
A few days ago, i saw this article in SF Chronicle; a joint opinion piece from MIT professor Carlo Ratti:

"Uber was supposed to help traffic. It didn’t. Robotaxis will be even worse"

https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/openforum/article/robota...

The basic gist was, convenience of ride-sharing / seduced us into over using cars. It was supposed to have the opposite effect

"...ride-hailing and ride-sharing could make our streets cleaner and more efficient. ... With minimal delays to passengers, we could match riders and reduce the size of New York City taxi fleets by 40%. More people could get around in fewer cars for less money. We could reduce car ownership, and free up curbs and parking lots for new uses"

but ... they did not take into account changes in human behavior. People stopped walking, using bicycles, etc...

"On average, ride-hailing trips generated far more traffic and 69% more carbon dioxide than the trips they displaced."

I think this is what will happen with these drone delivery services. As it becomes easier to order a box of bandaids and have it delivered in 4 minutes, people will change their behavior, we will be ordering more frequently one-off things from Walmart several times a week, and the sky will be filled with drones...

and it will be hell.

No one disputes that Ruby is slow.

But you picking “mirrors” in your analogy makes it sounds like a premature optimization.

The reason why perf isn’t typically an issue with Rails is the design pattern is to leverage heavy caching.

The use of caching is to address the slowness of Ruby.

>There is nothing lax about the trade embargo. Tell that to the people who can’t get food and medicine.

Cubans have all the food and medicine they need because China, Europe, Canada, Mexico, and the rest of the world still trades with them.

The US and Israel are the only countries that have imposed a (very lax) trade ban on Cuba.
I am not. Name one competent security program certified and verified to stop total compromise by a $30M unrestricted red team exercise which is the ransom amount demanded by the attackers on Caesars just a few weeks prior.

Keep in mind that amounts to around 100 person-years of dedicated hacking labor. I get a team of 50 and 2 years to achieve total compromise. I get to burn 5-10 zero click RCE zero-days. The idea that any of the commercial cybersecurity companies or any commercial IT organization could design a system that could resist such an attack is laughable. This is not a question of resources, it is one of ability.

I agree, compliance is not an above-average security program. But an security program that is merely above-average is woefully underprepared for the modern threat landscape. You need a security program 100x better than “best practices” to stand a meaningful chance and you are not finding that amongst the charlatans in the big cybersecurity players.
>This not only avoids the burden of dealing with negative numbers (such as the myriad of language-specific wraparound consequences of overflow… or underflow),

Is this supposed to be some kind of joke?

Unsigned underflow wraps around to the highest number. Meanwhile signed gives you a negative number, which tends to be properly handled by code that assumes positive numbers.
it's less about a backdoor and more about just being a lot less robust in general. classical crypto is based on ~100 years of math on finite fields and ~50 years of heavy scrutiny by cryptographers. the post quantum algorithms are much newer and built on much less well studied math. (and empirically, a large number of them have been found to be completely broken). we're at least 20 years from PQC that can be widely trusted. there really just isn't an alternative to having a generation of grad students studying an algorithm that's as old as they are

"Not so much on how we can more effectively understand requirements and translate these into code."

The first step to understanding requirements: There needs to be a requirement worthy of the name.

Because let's face facts: programmers are quite often confronted with "requirements" cooked up by some "stakeholder" that don't even describe the problem domain, much less a path to how it should be modeled.

A lot of the spaghetti that contemporary production code ends up looking like far too often, is programmers having to play a stupid game of "chase the nebulous and ever changing 'requirements'".

Once you develop for A but then B is required as well, and the architecture didn't anticipate that, you may be able to go back and change it ... or not, because usually the requirements change, but the deadlines don't, and good luck doing the same, or more, work all over again, in half the time.

Yes, programming is a hard problem. It really is. But it is also quite often being made harder than it needs to be.

Different pinball machines, like video games, all have varying levels of replay value. Almost all games made after 1990 will have some "wizard mode" (like a boss level) that's incredibly hard to get to.

That's the value in owning a machine, in my opinion. Keep it for as long as you can to beat the wizard mode. I actually owned a Metallica (Stern) for ~four years, but I was never able to get to the wizard mode ("End of Line"). It has a notoriously difficult wizard mode.

The other cool thing is that pinball machines really maintain their value. You'll likely be able to sell your machine for the same amount of money—if not more—than you bought it for!

Of course some Japanese will treat you differently. They will also otherize and treat differently even their fellow ethnic Japanese of other social classes.

Not the parent (and gotten my PhD more then 25 years ago), but the answer is no.

Quantum mechanics is a fickly thing. Schrödingers cat has not been observed ;-) because scaling kills the quantum mechanical properties.

My (entirely theoretical) PhD project dealt with a 2 dimensional electromagnetic cavity, with one 'perfect' mirror (100% reflecting) and one 'imperfect', say 99.999999999% reflecting.

My results were that if you started with a 'squeezed' vacuum, in just a few roundtrips, the 'squeeziness' disappears, due to the bath/loss of the non-perfect mirror. My 'gut feeling' tells me that if we have enough qbits to actually factor something more then 2x2, the loss/bath effect will delete any useful use of the quantum computer.

So I am in the 'will not happen' category. (Not in 1, not in 5, not in 30 years, not in 500 years).

This is different from classical error correction: as far as I understand Schors algorithm, there is no 'get N approximate answers, combine them, and get a better answer' part in there. While classically you could do 100 measurements and get a better approximation then with just one.
Standard brick weights about 2 kg (4 pounds). Plus the drone itself probably another 2 lbs. Imagine getting bonked by a malfunctioning 6 lbs. drone at 200 mph.
Depends what do you actually mean by sequence, but mostly purpose.

Normal "for" is like: repeat this code body as long as condition is satisfied

Foreach is more like: walk thru this collection

Look (c#):

foreach (var item in items) ...

for (int i=0; i<10; i++) { }

In the 2nd version it is possible to jumps ahead, back, do not move, etc. Generally play around "i's" values

Meanwhile I haven't seen yet any1 trying to do anything like this in foreach, because it is meant for just walking thru collection
I also question the revenue claim.

Google has a lot of revenue. Pinterest, Hashicorp, Uber, Twitch, Dropbox, etc. all have a good amount of golang and collectively have a lot of revenue. It might need a few more years to tip the scale, but it's closer than suggested here.
I used DNS and ChatGPT to perform <50ms Domain Name searches
I've been annoyed with super slow domain availability checkers, and their suggestions.

So I built something that uses DNS resolve requests to check for availability and sends the typed query in real time to gpt-3.5-turbo for instant suggestions: https://einstein.domains/

It is possible to modify the default prompt to tell it to be more specific and guide the process.

I made the whole thing around performance. Some requests take less than 5 ms. Of course, DNS Resolve requests are only 95% accurate. Sometimes a domain is reserved by the registrar (thus unavailable) but has no DNS, and thus produces a false positive. But the gain in performance is so high, that it's an acceptable error-rate for my use case. It's always possible to click "Buy" and see if the domain is actually available.

Hope this is useful to you. I built it for myself, but please enjoy. Whether you want to use it as the fastest way to check domain availability, or do some brainstorming.
