Not if you expect to do a bunch of data transformation before you materialize it into one of these engines.. if the way you want a materialize it is materially different than the way you handle it transactionally you're going to be moving it anyway and if you're moving it why not put it into an optimized context
I was thinking of overwriting just a few words of memory over and over again, which DRAM can endure for decades.
Bloat your DB... or pull in an entirely new vendor and bloat your entire operational outlay.

I'd really love to know what kind of insane scale justifies that tradeoff...
My point was that the data doesn't seem point at suicidal ideation in any particular way. Adverse event reports contain literally every outcome in connection with every drug, you need a strong trend to claim that you aren't just seeing report noise. (But you're right that a newly discovered side-effect would be more interesting than a well known one.)
This is a good one and would recommend the list to bootstappers. https://github.com/jixserver/free-for-dev
I wonder when it will become more commonplace for reviews (or advertorials, like this one) to offer efficiency figures for EVs? After all, it's common for ICE cars to have MPG or L/100km figures quoted by manufacturers (as unrealistic as those figures might be.)

For example, if the figures in the article are to be believed, this BMW offers 81200/475 = ~171Wh/km efficiency, which is some way from the very best that EVs can offer, but is in the region of sime simiilarly-sized EVs (e.g. Polestar 2, Mercedes EQE) and better than many.

Absolutely this is par for the course for distributed engines.. just not postgres and other single node engines which a lot of people here will tell you are all you need.. what they mean is that's all you need until you either have to introduce enormously complex application tier sharding or you're moving to a scalable engine

The wavelength at the size of a watermolecule in the range of Exahertz x-ray rather implies very precise laser pulses because the focal point is proportional to the wavelength. It is also relevant for energy transfer into molecules at resonant frequencies.

from the last paragraph linked above:

> For example, attosecond pulses can be used to push molecules, which emit a measurable signal. The signal from the molecules has a special structure, a type of fingerprint that reveals what molecule it is, and the possible applications of this include medical diagnostics.

Basically it's a more precise higher energy X-Ray laser.

I believe the fast turning on and off is a byproduct of a basic method (high-harmonic generation). They do stress the importance of short pulses, but this again may have to do with decoherence of the focal point and not so much the speed of electrons inside the molecule, which is only a model (i.e. relativistic) and remains to be investigated with this new method.

Maybe a high score correlates with a good developer experience?

Otherwise it’s just asking a bunch of survey questions about developers feeling of job quality?

XSL-FO was a good idea, but it never went anywhere. Processors were costly and underfeatured, HTML+CSS ran circles around it. IIRC, XSL-FO didn't even have floats for a long time!

It's a pity that there appears to be little interest for page-oriented features of CSS: breaks, headers, footers, numbering, etc. Most don't work well or at all.
Our key insights are:
1. You don’t have time to do everything you want, you must make tough choices

2. Set a priority for each day, and plan your day strategically around it

3. By reflecting on the week gone by, you can reset yourself for the week ahead

4. Reflecting on your beliefs and knowledge(epistemic housekeeping) can be essential to removing overestimation and bias in your planning

This is a weird comment. We focus on suicidal thoughts because suicidal thoughts are scary to people in a way that vomiting or a rash or blurred vision is not, because the former makes people consider a potentially life ending outcome, while the latter do not. Whether or not you agree with the relative ranking of these concerns, it ought to be easy to understand why.

And the rate of suicidal ideation per reported adverse event is irrelevant as something to compare unless you've also confirmed that the rate of adverse event reports is comparable between the two drugs. Have you? If so, why are you citing the rate per adverse event case rather than the rate relative to number of users, or doses?

Even so, even if they are in fact comparable, we're focusing on these drugs because they're fairly new and have seen an explosive increase in use, just like we've focused on other drugs when they've seen the same explosive increase in use. That people are extra interested in any potentially serious effects of a fairly new drug should not be surprising at all. Why does it surprise you?

A T-shaped engineer w/ 5+ years of experience in backend development. Passionate open sourcerer, as a maintainer and a contirbutor. Interested in technical and team leadership, DevRel, Developer Advocate and project management roles.
Kalvium | Onsite, Bangalore | Full-time | https://kalvium.kekahire.com/ | https://kalvium.com

Come build the best undergraduate computer science program.

If you find this intriguing, come learn more about our extremely ambitious journey to improve the education outcomes of more than 10 lac graduates every year in India alone (and we're expanding internationally).

We're a small lean team looking for startuppy folks. Kalvium is a phygital platform - students are in university classrooms turned into offices, and study via our full-fledged LMS. We're pioneering learning improvements by measuring outcomes regularly, and providing feedback. It's an intensive course, with provden outcomes (87% of 2022 batch is work-integrated by 3rd semester).

I'm hiring for:

* Fullstack Engineer (4+yr experience - SDE2) - join our lean team to build our platform. Location is in Bangalore.

* Classroom technical mentors (freshers to 1yr exp) - someone to help students if they get stuck on their learning journey. Location would be on any of our universities across India.

PS: even if you've not found an open role fit for you, but you're interested in participating in this challenge and vision, please get in touch. I like talking to people who connect with our mission - we usually find ways of collaborating. You can reach out to me anil@kalvium.com

I much prefer video meetings. Being face-blind, logging onto a meeting has the added benefit of seeing people's names under their little images - no more trying to guess who's saying what! [1]

My completely uninformed and generally useless guess is that obese people with depression may have been pinning their hopes on massive weight loss as a silver bullet that would solve all their problems. And when a drug comes out that actually does deliver the weight loss they’ve always dreamt of, they find that the depression still remains, creating a new sense of hopelessness that leads to suicidal thoughts.
> converge or diverge

Neither, though the final result can be similar, but at project level, tinygo and pcz has very different approaches to achieve the final result:

- tinygo chose the hard path to write a llvm backed toolchain with some custom behavior that compiles Go code (using official std) to llvm targets.

- pcz chose the easy path to write a stdlib from scratch that compiles to desired targets using the official Go toolchain.

One major benefit of pcz's approach is you can import packages from the pcz std module like you do with any other Go package, the development experience can remain unchanged.

Notably, it's historically been the consensus opinion of the state's Republicans that it was their attempt to lean into the kind of racist BS in the first quote above that lost them the state.

Now they have pivoted to conspiracy theories about illegal voters to explain away the electoral failure of vile and petty xenophobia in the state, which builds its high tech economy on immigrants from around the world.
Huh. It's just occurred to me that Superman was an illegal alien... I'm not all that well versed in comic book lore though; did he ever actually get naturalized?

There's no "undo" button for wasting away for 40 years in prison either

To me it looks like a glitch of the human cognition to think that losing almost/everyone you love, being dropped into a vastly different world than you knew, having your financial and social prospects thrown in the trash, living in shitty conditions for decades, is oh so much better and moral than killing them

What you are describing, following them around to observe what they are doing, sounds a lot more like "chasing them" than asking a couple of follow-up questions in the standup.

If the author's statements are true then Packt Publishing is acting terribly here - There's a good chance it's not legal.

They only should have two options from a legal standpoint - honour the contract if the author isn't a designated person or cancel the contract if they are a designated person. Either way that shouldn't mean they continue to sell the book without paying royalties or keep existing earnings.

I hope the author keeps publicly updating us on their case - it's of interest to anyone who wants to publish and are considering Packt as an option.

There is some nice sweet irony here. Very marginal inside baseball. I know of one of the recipients although indirectly. I felt like their group was kept around their university physics dept because they were known to be good in that field, while generally their colleagues were generally not respected as their physics (which was derisively deemed "AMO" as if it were an epithet) was not seen as "fundamental" enough by the particle physics people who held high administrative positions in the department. Fast forward a few years, and first Gerard Morou and Donna Strickland and Authur Ashkin got the Nobel for CPA and optical trapping, and now we have a nobel for research into attosecond physics.

There was a nobel prize for the Higgs, but SUSY and all the other sorts of things particle physicists hinged on...well that didn't peter out, did it?
One can distinguish between patterns that should be forced (e.g. brace placement) and patterns that should remain up to the programmer (e.g. whether a particular “if” statement may be single-line). Meaning, using a formatter can still allow the same code to be formatted in different ways. (Where to insert blank lines for visual structuring is maybe the most obvious example. You wouldn’t want to automate that.) It’s thus a spectrum rather than an all-out black and white.

So, your back of the envelope calculations are good! 16,3 kWh/100 km = 163Wh/km.

Edit as comparison: Tesla Model 3, EPA calculations give 147 Wh/km. It is considered the most efficient car at the moment.

I'm 48, and back in the gym after several years of first too much else to do, then laziness, then injury and the pandemic, and I'm now finally back up to a 4 year personal best. It's tougher than it used to be, but at the same time most people have never been anywhere near what they could achieve and have no idea how strong they could get if they were just consistent and trying.

I keep seeing people go in and lift the same weights every time while at an age they could easily increase the weight several times a week for months on end before starting to hit limits.
This would be an interesting hypothesis to test—especially in cases where obesity may have been an outcome of people self medicating with food. Fits my own experience too (keto is basically the only intervention that worked for me, and only after I've been able to peel myself away from carbs for a few weeks)

I've been doing a good job avoiding GLPs just because I want it as a last resort option. But still, it wouldn't at all surprise me if this turns out to be one of a few explanations for the link.

Ask HN: How are so many fake ads allowed on YouTube?
One third of all commercials I see on youtube are outright fake. Either it's a fake business story, fake description of "inventions" or outright deep fakes of famous people dubbed to telling lies. I can't figure out why google / youtube are taking this so lightly, or what it is that is missing from their approval procedure (don't they have any?).

The production quality is good enough to cheat eg. my parents, but it doesn't take me 2 seconds to spot it, so I'm amazed it can go on.

Anyone with background insights into the approval / reporting procedure or knowledge of if Google just doesn't care?

I also assume there must be a healthy business for someone, producing these commercials for companies so eager for attention - could they maybe be called out?

For instance, the one triggering me to make this post was of Elon Musk, unveiling some trading platform leading to this site[1], where the video in the ad can also be seen. I have no idea how to link to the youtube ads, but if I did I would have collected a loonng list of fakes by now.
