Lots of great suggestions here, but one I haven't seen is providing deep links. Let users share the exact state of their dashboard with others, ideally without requiring some convoluted system of logging in and sharing things. We implemented it by allowing a json config in the url, then providing a button to copy a shortened URL containing the whole config.

Original creator of (the now woefully dated-looking) GBD Compare [https://vizhub.healthdata.org/gbd-compare/] here, where we found this super useful since we had so many controls that it could take a lot of clicking (and knowledge of the UI) to recreate a graph someone else was looking at. It really helped with reach, as folks could email/tweet their specific view then others could use that as a starting point to dive in without starting from scratch or having to create an account.
I'm not denying that. I just personally don't find that particular lens appealing.
I've seen thousands and thousands of lines of copy-pasted YAML. "Oh you changed it in these 34 places but forgot to change this one and that one"
My most successful projects were sending scheduled emails for things found in a cluttered dashboard (or tucked behind a few filters). Happiest customers, most repeat business and biggest impact.

The Wikipedia page lists the company as headquartered in San Diego, California. It relocated there in 1990.
That is correct. You are very correct with this. I was using the 'common' understanding.

I was really surprised how much of Descartes and Leibniz were really about religious arguments. Completely about mystical metaphysical ideas. Surprised because I thought Western Philosophy would be all 'sciencey' and about logic. But really it all had a lot of religious reasoning in it.

And then also surprised that in India, with Buddhism, with Nagarjuna, extreme analytical logical arguments. There were centuries of extreme logical arguments.

So guess, if you try to make a quick summary on the internet, it will be wrong. Because if you go back over the centuries, at some point in time everything was done before by everyone else. Everyone went through similar phases at some point.
Some states implemented their own versions of net neutrality.
> Sorry, but that is pretty much the standard way to install apps on windows.

Maybe now, but when I was on XP and, later, Windows 7, you only had a handful of software you would use (I have all of them on a CD, and later on an HDD). Things like VLC, Notepad++, Codeblocks, Office, and others. It requires trust, but these programs did not phone home, AFAIK, every second. That's what we lost, trust in our computer and the software programs running on it. And now, it is a hostile relation between customers and software developers. I wasn't concerned about VLC tracking the file I opened with it, or Office scanning my documents.
I cant tell you why its flagged. But their methodology is nonsense. Their metric looks at titles (which are close to randomly generated to make identifying the scenes difficult for pirates) as well as "verbal abuse".

They also call "Teens" category child porn, racial categories racist and allege illegal sex practices. Not sure how deep you want to dive into the shades of bullshit. Its a smear piece, the study as well as the article. I am hard pressed finding anything that could function as a reasonable base for discussion. And given the amount of nonsense i am not optimistic that this would be time well spend.
Do you mean the Ansible Runner interface?
It is apparently still available.
It was featured more prominently in early documentation (http://web.archive.org/web/20120314070643/http://ansible.git...).
The discontinued OpsMop by the original author of Ansible (https://github.com/opsmop/opsmop) used a Python DSL.

I would also like to avoid writing Ansible playbooks when I need to manage servers again.
Something I want to try out is Pyinfra (https://pyinfra.com/).
It is like Ansible in that it is agentless and works over SSH, but with configuration in Python instead of YAML and Jinja.
There is also itamae (Ruby, works over SSH or on the local machine, https://github.com/itamae-kitchen/itamae) and mitamae (mruby, local-only, https://github.com/itamae-kitchen/mitamae).
Sure, but I really don't think that's the reason for why the law was introduced in this case.

The reason cats are being sterilized is, supposedly, "to avoid indiscriminate reproduction and possible abandonment" of the cats themselves.

The law is called "Animal welfare law" and it's only about pets and their owners. It has nothing to do with endangered or invasive species or even any other type of environmental concern.

Still code generation according to Wikipedia:

> Source-code generation is the process of generating source code based on a description of the problem[9] or an ontological model such as a template and is accomplished with a programming tool such as a template processor or an integrated development environment (IDE). These tools allow the generation of source code through any of various means.

I began US med school well over a decade ago, so my POV is dated (pre-ACA). I dropped out very early into my formal training.

However, I still keep up with three people whom completed grad school; two physicians, and one dentist (all practice medicine, now, except me).

Remembering their almost-simultaneous relief as each paid off their final $xxx,xxx student loan... the dentist still has to pay off his "Practice" financing (office), but all texted me upon the first deposits of their "first big-boy paychecks" — proud to finally be tackling this debt.

Two of the three have confided to me that "I am smarter than all three of them, having left medicine early [enough to pay off only $109k of student loans]."

I always thank medical staff, whatever the rank, for having to deal with the public. My dentist friend admits to never having-considered that his stubby fingers would have to work in tinier mouths (relative to normal hands).

C'est la vi.

Record companies are the ones that make most of the money off copyright. Artists profit from everything else (e.g., performances, sponsorships, merch, etc) which would be mostly unaffected by a shortened (maybe 10-20, not 5 years) copyright duration.
Even though p-values can be hacked, they are very useful when they aren't. At p = 0.1 I'd ignore the finding because there would be a 10% chance it was explained by random chance. p = 0.01 would pique my interest. p < 0.001 I'd accept it as true, but I'd still watch out for systematic biases such as comparing new to old factories.
Billionaires aren't a monolithic block though (beyond core issues like low taxes). If you sell out your country, then other oligarchs can use that as an excuse to order their pet politicians to confiscate your fiefs^H assets. Just see all the speculation about nationalizing SpaceX in this discussion.

The only way money can protect you is if you literally buy out the entire government, in which case you're basically a monarch.

But yes, that is cold comfort to us plebians.

If you call out the problem generally you get denounced as part of the problem. Consider the reaction to "Planet of the Humans". There was a PR full court press from all the environmental groups to try to prevent people from watching it by attacking the messenger and focusing on trivial things while avoiding the discussion about the message.

It's just one example. I'm kind of bitter about the lack of attention to the effectiveness of the green tech movement and actually focusing on reduction of resource use.
Climate neutral fuel only makes sense for uses, like airplanes, where batteries won't work. For one thing, synthesized fuels will be expensive. For anything that can switch to batteries, it will be much cheaper to use electricity. Expensive enough that will have to force people to switch and not use fossil fuels. Nobody will use synthesized fuels for their car unless it is some special classic or sports care.

Hydrogen or ammonia will likely be cheaper to make than hydrocarbons and might work for many uses, like airplanes and ships, that can't use batteries. Hydrocarbons may be only be used for places where can't upgrade.

Synthesized fuels aren't fossil fuels. If you want name, say hydrocarbon fuel.
They almost certainly will, but legislation does have the value of drawing a nice, bright "Not. Here." line in the sand.

The Equal Rights Act was passed in 1972, and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act in 1974 first legally mandated women be allowed to open independent bank and credit accounts. It took about a generation for women to be in the workforce at ratios approaching men (https://www.pewresearch.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/FT_18...), and yet the ratios moved.
Interesting - great points

> Validation/testing has always been a challenge, especially given that dashboards are by definition quite “full stack” implementations where testing just the front end or back end is not sufficient and testing both in isolation can also often be challenging due to the huge possible variations in input data.

Constantly evolving but I've always tried hard to keep calculations away from the display tools. So, I put lots of things in SQL SPs, or in Python, or more broadly in tooling that allows me to recreate the summary data without the front-end. My nightmare is having to check a PowerBI calc that itself is based on an underlying SQL calc. Which one is wrong? Now spend twice as long figuring it out!

> The visual aspects of dashboards can easily drift over time even if the data is correct. You’re often theming charting libraries for example and the compliance of the theme can drift slightly if you update the library without really checking every detail of the visual appearance/layout every time. Or you may not even notice the “visual drift”..

Love it, very smart. Why I prefer tables for many things too - one less thing to maintain and check.
Thanks for sharing. I too get teary-eyed thinking too much about it too much, but find as time passes it's much more filled with happy thoughts as you remember back on your time together. Nothing too additive to say but just wanted to acknowledge and voice respect for sharing in your experience, it's crazy how deep those relationships can be. I actually do believe they're pretty damn smart and that final eye gaze had a lot of love embedded. I have same, and it felt like he was saying "it's time, I'm ready" which is probably in my mind but that's the reality I choose for myself lol
There are usually a lot of dark or difficult days for a startup, and I can’t see how anyone would get through those without a passion for the work.

However! If your solution is figured out, you’re not really trying to grow, and things are rosy, you can probably get away with it.

In other words, what you describe isn’t the person I’d want for difficult times, but is they are no difficult times, it’s fine.
Hmm: "The specific incident in question was a grand larceny case where two men tried (and failed) to steal a robot owned and operated by Serve Robotics". Sounds like someone chose a pretty sensational title when in reality Serve so far only provided footage of a case that involves their own property. It's like saying "Car drivers are feeding dashcam footage to police" as soon as one driver uses their dashcam footage as evidence in a hit-and-run they were victim of.
nah, we just need the government to not back student loans and allow it to be discharged in bankruptcy. the system will sort it out from there.
AFAIK, FreeRDP is largely what is underneath most of the iOS/Android/etc RDP clients. Largely because rdesktop which preceded it is GPL licensed. Which focused a lot of commercial development to create an alternative, and hence freeRDP. Which also did a better job of not being as tightly integrated with X11 as rdesktop is/was because a lot of the windows GDI API has corresponding X11 functionality, so if the function is an Xored Blit operation, or a hatched pen fill, then rdesktop just offloadeds to X11 and presumably the graphics card rather than being software rendered.
The omnibox stayed but got nerfed in a rather idiotic way, if https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/6240767/behaviour-o... is to be trusted.

I used chart.js [0], but I don't necessarily endorse it - it's just what I knew how to use quickly. I usually try to keep my posts free from javascript, and could have used a different tool that gives me SVG data or images.

It really depends on what your idea of applied is, but Conal Elliot's work is really interesting.

His paper on Compiling to Categories [1] pitches programming language semantics as a cartesian closed category [2] allows for really cool stuff by mapping typical evaluation semantics to alternatives like building a computational graph visualization, a pretty printer, and imbuing the original program with automatic differentiation capabilities purely through the categorical interpretation of the same program. Essentially, if you can formulate a desired output of the program as a cartesian closed category, you can do it quite easily.

[1]: http://conal.net/papers/compiling-to-categories/

[2]: A cartesian category with is a category with an operation that lets you pair things together into a new object and get out the original parts with eliminators. Think construct a tuple and have the ability to get the first and second elements out of the tuple. A cartesian closed category adds in the ability to model (partial) function application to its arguments via "apply, curry, and uncurry." See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartesian_closed_category

How much of that was the market decision and how much was illegal anticompetitive practices that got Microsoft in trouble a few decades ago? Paying manufacturers that used them while penalizing this that made other OS's available, amongst other practices. Hell the only reason Apple is around today is Microsoft bailed them out so the could point at apple and claim in court there was a compatator and therfore were not a monopoly back in the 2000s

Why wouldn't SPACs count? What allowed those financial scams, spacs, crypto, zombie companies, was this low interest rates environment, for over a decade. Of course SPACs count, they are a consequence of LIR.
I think this is the paper that originated this theory that Nigerian scammers set out a deliberately bad "offer" in order to increase their signal to noise ratio. I believe a lot of people have cited this paper as evidence that this is happening.

It seems plausible, but the paper doesn't present any evidence that this is what the scammers were actually doing; it's just a mathematical analysis that such a strategy would be useful.

It also seems conceivable that this paper has become so well known that scammers are now using it as a guide to what strategy to adopt.

The CPU/GPU part of the device does not need to go on your head. Manufacturers make it that way for convenience (and lower part count) but that doesn't necessitate that stand-alone headsets be made like that. Apple, for example has the battery in a separate little dongle that you're supposed to put in your pocket. If they can do that there's no reason they couldn't put the CPU/GPU hardware elsewhere too.

The Steam Deck can play some VR games just fine. It just wasn't made for that purpose so as it stands it's currently sub-optimal. With a few minor changes that very same chip/hardware could make a decent VR headset.
There are always little things. As far as I know, desktop works pretty well and there are people running PS2 emulation on it, which has always been super heavy.

arm64 has come a long way for that use case.

It's been solid as the VM host so far. I wrote an Armbian SD card and it just worked. Once a VM is booted though, many things become irrelevant outside of arm64 support.
