Ask HN: How can I easily create reminders?
Recently I’ve come across the need to create complex reminders, such as the following:

1) Remind me to take a certain medication in the morning, afternoon, evening and night for the next five days.

2) Remind me to look for a random note, such as “A”, on the guitar each day for the next 30 days. Each day should be a different note from the typical western music scale and each note should only repeat three times.

My current workflow for tasks is to use Things 3, which has support for reminders. I’ve also looked into the Apple Reminders app for something like this. However, I’ve only been able to figure out how to add one reminder for one task, and perhaps have this task repeat. What I really want is a way to convert from the natural language above to several created reminders. Anyone have an existing workflow / app for this?

In the example given, the “apostrophe S” is a contraction of “he has” not a possession indicator. The word “of” established the relationship between “Entire Population” and “Maine.” The apostrophe S is redundant to the point of confusion, as if a word describing a class of things related to Maine were omitted in error, like maybe it was supposed to be “Entire Population of Maine’s Bricklayers and Sitar Players.” If one wanted to use a possessive noun then “Maine’s Entire Population.”

I’m learning how to delegate these days, and it’s teaching me that I’m a bad communicator. I appreciate the clarity discussion, but in the real world it’s even harder. At least everyone knows what taking out the trash involves! But when it involves delegating a complex task, concerns about being bossy means you might fail to explain the precise requirements of the task you’re delegating.

There is no green card category for being irreplaceable. PERM is for situations where it's difficult to find equally good US workers, with "equally good" left intentionally vague. The idea is that the employer is expected to argue convincingly that the foreign applicant is clearly the best person for the job. That's inherently subjective, but most things in immigration and the job market are.

Sometimes there is a shortage of domestic candidates with sufficient qualifications and experience in the general field. Sometimes the job is highly specialized, and nobody outside of a handful of internal candidates can possibly do it without extensive training. Sometimes the candidate was selected according to the established standards of a profession, and the job only exists for that particular person. And so on.

A fake application process is dishonest, regardless of whether it looks like a real job opportunity or is intentionally kept hidden. But if the process is open and you know in advance that no other candidate can possibly qualify, you are being not only dishonest but also impolite. Unrelated people may apply thinking it's a real job opportunity, wasting their time.
That report [1] shows an increase from 5.44 per 1000 to 5.60. But if you look at the longer timeline [2] you can see that its a general downward trend with the occasional slight uptick. The increase this year just looks like random fluctuation, not a reversal.

It's a good question. There's just something about being in the same country. It's hard to explain why though.

I work for a fully remote company. Most of us are based in the US but the company also hires people from some other countries through some kind of agency. Even though many, probably a majority of the US-based people are immigrants (myself included), and many don't speak English any better than the agency people, there's still somehow a clear divide. The agency people are great - talented, skilled, no issues. But somehow they understand the business less. Their contributions are purely technical. It's clear that the company could not just can us all and hire the same number of agency guys, but it's hard to explain why.

My previous employer once tried to outsource some stuff to India and sent a guy over there to oversee it. It didn't go well. But we had lots of Indian people before and since in the company, and they were great. They had the same background, same education. But they were local to the company.

I often think of the first iPhone as an extreme example of what I'm trying to say. It was built in China using parts sourced from China. But it was invented in California, and it had to be. From the inventors and the builders there's a sort of spectrum, a range of people, like the developers who conceived and wrote the first killer apps - and the closer you are to the inventing side of things, the closer you need to be to the heart of the company.

If I had to put sum it up in a word, I'd say it's "ambiguity". Knowing what to do when you don't have exact instructions requires you to be steeped in the same culture as the CEO and the main market. This isn't a fixed thing: I'm sure there's a market for luxury devices in China now that Americans find it hard to understand. But in general the countries that are the most developed have already experienced what other countries are going through, and thus they are uniquely positioned to dictate what the next big thing is.

So companies will always have to do some hiring locally, and the harder the job, the more important it is to be local.

If you're entering a breakpoint from a function called by the IIFE, you can just walk up the stack. If you're outside the IIFE entirely, I don't think it's possible The variables you're looking for may not even exist in memory, either before or after execution. Javascript doesn't have static variables like other languages do, so each time the IIFE is called, the variables inside it are thrown out. Javascript is also very much single-threaded (unless you use web workers and such, which come with limited interactivity with their parent pages) so unless you're trying to race-condition yourself with an async/await call, I don't think there's even a way to conceptually have these variables around in memory outside the IIFE scope.

You could (ab)use `var` to initialize the variable outside the IIFE scope so you can see the values produced by the last IIFE call.
you have to wonder what sort of collusion isn't being uncovered. After all, when you catch someone doing something unethical, it is often the tip of the iceberg.

I am focusing on mathematics because I am more familiar with mathematics than philosophy and dislike seeing it misrepresented, particularly to use as a cudgel against a related field that I respect.

The passages that you describe as "worthless philosophical ramblings" are part of Tarski's results. He could not have left them out without obscuring the meaning of his proofs. Possibly model theory would not exist today had he done so. It would certainly have taken longer to develop.

Another instructive example is Per Martin-Lof's lectures On the Meanings of the Logical Constants and the Justifications of the Logical Laws: https://www.ae-info.org/attach/User/Martin-L%c3%b6f_Per/Othe.... Unlike Tarski's paper, this contains no formal proofs whatsoever; if the sentence you quote is worthless, then I imagine "There is no evidence outside our actual or possible experience of it. The notion of evidence is by its very nature subject related, relative to the knowing subject, that is, in Kantian terminology." is worse than worthless. Nevertheless these lectures have been of great importance in logic and computer science. You can see some of their impact in the citations here: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?cites=2483744927635326348

You may be unable to find any useful meaning in this kind of writing, but most mathematicians do not share your difficulty. This is fortunate, since the field would be greatly impoverished if it purged itself of all philosophy and philosophy-adjacent work. I would normally encourage you to read https://terrytao.wordpress.com/career-advice/theres-more-to-... on the role of non-rigorous big picture thinking in mathematics, but it deals entirely with human understanding of mathematics and is therefore only of interest to Terence Tao and other such pseudoscientists.

> Rewarding loyal customers

Restaurant reservations are fundamentally different compared to, say, Taylor Swift concert tickets. Loyalty to an artist is multi-channel (concert tickets, merchandise, CD, streaming) and thus difficult to track and reward. Restaurant reservations occur at a single point of sale. It is much simpler, conceptually, to first offer up Friday 7pm reservations to people who have dined with you in the past, at a lower price, then open them up for a higher price to the general public if they haven't sold within a reasonable time frame.

How is it negative, the article was a puff piece that treated the subjects a bit too preciously, and they were talking about how they are getting along in...trade. Arrogance indeed. My comment vollyed back Nature's lob.

That said, I don't actually believe the "real jobs" this comment appeals to are a thing. I would argue that anything that involves serving on a committee is more of an appointment than a job, as practically by definition the members of a committee are not responsible or accountable for anything except diffusing said responsibility and accountability. The whole real-job trope is mainly an artifact of the anxiety of inlaws, I suspect.

It's almost as if it isn't a payment processing fee at all but a platform fee that enables Apple (or Google) to make money on "free to play" apps with in-app purchases.

I can definitely see why a developer like Epic would want to pay platform fees for Fortnite to Apple and Google that are lower than what they currently pay to Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo.

You mixed in throttling. Bandwidth, like fluid pipelines, have fixed capacity. The pipeline providers can not provide greater bandwidth without somebody paying. If they can't charge Netflix for high usage, the costs are shifted to consumers. In your example with Netflix bandwidth, I end up paying for Netflix's excess bandwidth usage. Your NN forces higher consumer costs and greater profits to Netflix owners.

A number of the exhibits do have an English translation but not most, looks like some of these documents are financial or legal.

There's some likelihood there were many locations where paper was extremely uncommon compared to conveniently peeling bark off of suitable trees.

I believe, having recently installed Python libraries on it, that Debian stable has the best handle on what to do to produce defaults that a mere mortal can debug: Either use what's vendored in apt, or use venv and pip for your project's additional dependencies. Pip has been configured to be venv-only, which is good for the needs of Debian's maintainers, and clarifies what your project has to be responsible for. So, while I haven't needed it yet, I have some confidence that I can get to a reproducible dev environment with the appropriate version of whatever's needed, even if the resolution process is imperfectly automated.

Similarly (and at risk of focusing too much on the example), in a high competency and high trust environment, identifying a task as quotidian as taking out the trash ought to be pretty rare.

I've pondered why websites who are that afraid of reverse engineering don't simply feed the browser mock data or kill a user's session (with a five minute IP block) when the browser requests a source map. Almost all browsers request them by default the moment you open the debugger and normal users very rarely hit the debugger.

Sure, it'd be trivial to circumvent such a block, but it'd easily inconvenience most of the low-hanging fruit enough that things like community maintained ad blockers could become ineffective. Surely simply never serving ads to people who open the dev tools would prevent the 99.9% of normal users from using effective ad blockers in their browsers.
You download the Tor Browser key from a key server such as openpgp, and verify that the fingerprint is the same as that published in the Tor Browser as well as other websites. You can check who has signed that key also.

Once you verify the fingerprint, you import the key into your keyring and sign the key. It’s TOFU, so it’s done only once.

Imagine if browser developer tools were reasonably architected so e.g. opening the DOM inspector didn't provide a vector for anti-tamper code targeting the JS debugger to DOS your attempts to poke at the CSS or read network requests. Or get this: for non-hostile content—like something you yourself have written—maybe you could have the debugger and the inspector open in separate windows, or even have multiple object inspectors open on different objects at the same time. Gee. Fuckin' novel idea. Maybe this is something we'll be able to look forward to once the year 2000 rolls around.

I think knowing how the masterpiece was created matters. That may impact on some people’s perception of its worth, and status as a masterpiece.
I’ve seen some really beautiful AI generated pieces of art lately, and I’m fascinated by it, however, I still feel more impressed by what humans create, because I know the talent and effort that goes into creating something from a human perspective. I guess I just have a better understanding of the human process of creating art, whereas I don’t have that insight into how AI creates things. I guess it seems kind of empty and meaningless as a process.
So I guess I’m personally somewhat biased with a preference for human created content.
