I haven't looked extensively at react-datasheet. It looks like it is trying to build more of a full product than the other data tables.

I have used ag-grid extensively, its an impressive product. Some pieces are a little awkward to use, particularly auto-sizing. But generally ag-grid has thought of most functionality and has a solution. The creator of ag-grid had a great interview on Javascript Jabber [1].

The other serious data table component that I have seen is FinOS Perspective [2]. This is extremely high performance, also more specialized and probably harder to customize. I think Perspective renders to a canvas element from Rust/C++ compiled to WASM (not 100% sure). It is also made for streaming updates.

AG-Grid supports streaming updates... but only in the commercial version.

Eventually the data model for these types of tables becomes tricky. I will be investigating parquet-wasm for my use case. Hit me up if you want to collaborate.

I think there are two independent issues here.

Getting out and going straight back to dealing drugs is obviously a bad move.

But it’s a move that is far more likely to happen because of the abysmal state of the system and the kinds of “opportunities” it affords to people trying to transition back to normal life. It’s a system that is predisposed to getting people stuck in the same patterns.

“He had his chance to be productive” is stretching the word productive pretty far.

“The system” is made up of individuals. People who have offended and their tendencies. People who think they know how an offender must live their life and the limits that must be placed on them post-incarceration. And if the system leads to recidivism, that is a reflection of the whole system, not just the individuals re-offending.

So while I agree that going back to dealing drugs is not a winning move, it should give us pause that people regularly end up doing exactly this despite the consequences.

If the goal is to transform criminals into functioning members of society, then from a purely utilitarian perspective, the system is broken. And the “opportunities” one is given and told they should be grateful for are often laughably insufficient.

To draw an overly simplistic analogy: people stopped pirating music and started paying for it as soon as it was reasonable to do so. I don’t condone piracy, but I certainly understand why people did it.

Selling drugs that can kill people obviously puts this in a different category. But the overarching ideas are similar.
Elon derangement syndrome is a bit different from other reality bubble symptoms, in the sense that he had a unreasonably good reputation ~5 years ago, and so the symptoms can also be seen when people switch to the correct interpretation of his statements. There is no world in which reasonably skeptical people believe:

Maybe I'm too chicken to receive someone elses poo but I took what I consider to be the more scientifically controlled middle ground, mixing large amounts of probiotics with MCT oil and using it rectally. 36 strains, about 2 trillion CFU. To my surprise I have found several doctors that love this idea and one that also does it. It's not as diverse and that is exactly why I do it. I know what cultures I am getting and what benefits each one has.

Or maybe I have discovered a fetish.
With modern hardware and OSes the ideal answer is typically to run non-essential tasks exclusively on efficiency cores. So you leave the performance cores free to handle stuff that the user immediately cares about.
There are online communities of people attempting FMT on themselves. I remember seeing them even cite an online source of FMT supplies from some sketchy company operating internationally to avoid regulations. Others used very understanding family members or friends as sources.

I haven’t followed the topic for a long time, but I distinctly remember how many people were disappointed with the results of their self administered FMT. This is probably because they had unreasonable expectations about their health conditions being caused by the microbiome. The only real success stories were from people who had C. Diff and treated it with a combination of antibiotics and FMT.

However, there were a lot of negative stories. Some people had major bowel problems for a while. One person even died, though it was speculated that it was due to some of the microbiome altering antibiotics he was experimenting with.

Interesting research topic, but please don’t DIY it.
I used to both smoke and extensively used pure Nicotine (gums, sprays etc.)

In my opinion, majority of the people who are stopping Nicotine (not just smoking) approach it as an incredibly hard challenge. The process is demonised and described as something that is really hard to complete. That's exactly what I would like people to think if I'd be to work in a marketing department for tobacco corporations.

While there is a longer story behind it, I quit cold turkey in March this year. This time was much easier - I didn't approach it as something that is hard to do. While this might sound banal, I focused on what am I getting out of it, not what I'm loosing. Everything, from my gums to my muscles got better.

Nicotine in its pure form is definitely great brain stimulant, I'm still a big fan. I just don't think it's worth the cost, both from financial and health perspective to use it often.
>> the success of the Maine model of corrections should highlight the absolutely embarrassing lack of opportunities in the rest of the system

Very well said. And I am glad we have a model now, if one was ever needed. I hope other prison systems take note.
Something of an educated guess, but microbiota because there are current hypotheses that rely on the gut-brain interaction, gold probably because its inert, and chirality is most likely because their target requires specific kinetics.
This is the art of navigating a bureaucracy: make the pain happen at the same point that the decision is made. It's not easy, and from the outside it's almost impossible, without being very dogged.
People in upper management only speak in dollars. If you can't speak in dollars you literally can't speak their language.

They shouldn't have asked management for money, they should have presented management with two alternatives: pay $x now to upgrade network infrastructure, or pay $y later in rush fees, IT overtime, and customer loss due to degraded UX. Then you let them make the decision.

It's absolutely possible the business was in a temporary cash crunch or needed the money to get a more important revenue-generating initiative past the finish line, and eating the higher costs later might make more sense to the business.
The keyword the original comment was missing is differentiability. This is what a) and b) imply because it is how you ensure that you can train your model using gradient descent or whatever. So you need a particular kind of math to train these models using the methods we have today. There's quite a bit of research into other methods for training neural networks that don't come with this constraint, because it's obvious the human brain doesn't work that way. But this is early research and very far from being as useful.
Let's say you marched for "in favor of choice", but the politicians chose to ignore you because they're backed by just-as-large numbers of people who feel strongly the other way.

With COVID, people who felt strongly about staying at home, were probably the minority, especially as time went on.

If a new pandemic starts in 10 years, people will still be burnt out from the last one and resist closure in greater numbers, immediately.
The first paragraph is only true if you believe the supply is fixed (ie the elasticity on the extensive margin is zero). This is often a good way to teach economics because much of the math remains the same in a production environment but when you apply it in an environment it isn’t designed for it leads to fallacies like this one. Free markets and capitalism work precisely because it isn’t a zero sum game like this.

And your last two paragraphs are nonsensical, you are comparing the right to eat at a top end restaurant with the right to not have your kids kidnapped it’s downright laughable that you’d see such a moral equivalence.
Why are techs the only one's with agency? Communication. Manage upwards. Dance, monkey, dance.

Shouldn't management communicate? Shouldn't management manage?

In all my career, I can think of maybe a handful of non-techs whose communication was measurably better than grunts, that could manage better than chimps throwing darts.

I will concede that most tech's, such as myself, fail miserably on other social niceties crucial for royal politics (and the money chase). Such as deception, stealing valour, skulduggery, sucking up, ambiquitiy, enthusiasm, and fashion.
These days, I'm not even using Go for scraping that much, as the webpage changes makes me crazy and JS code evaluation is a lifesaver, so I moved to Typescript+Playwright. (Crawlee framework is cool, while not strictly necessary).

Its been 8+ years since i started scraping. I even wrote a popular Go web scraping framework previously: (https://github.com/geziyor/geziyor).

My favorite stack as of 2023: TypeScript+Playwright+Crawlee(Optional)
If you're serious in scraping, you should learn javascript, thus, playwright should be good.

Note: There are niche cases where lower-level language would be required (C++, Go etc), but probably only <%5
This is a thought experiment, lacking a time machine we can't do it. You are right that bows should not be the first thing you reach for.
I am so thankful I did not get a Model X Plaid last year. And would have considered getting one this year at the lower price but for the right wing descent into madness of its founder.
Yes, even better "isNumber()" because a function that tests a negative can cause confusion and mistakes.
The cost of something is due to how rare it is. Tesla invests heavily into making its vehicle production process cheaper. Because of this Teslas will not keep pace with inflation and will likely depreciate more in the future.

A house, especially in a desirable location is much more rare, it is hard to produce. Land is limited, getting permits is difficult, labor can be expensive.

Houses have a better chance to keep pace with inflation which makes them more susceptible to being an investment.

Are you by chance using Cloudflare for DNS? If so that would be the answer. Archive.is gives CF their own IP's back to them rather than the correct DNS answer on purpose. Some people will get endless captchas and some will get errors.
I guess that's not too bad, just pay with your IC card if it's not a big purchase. Basically everyone in the big cities already carries one for use in transit. Don't think bars accept them though, then again most people use cash for saturday nights (from my experience, since it's easier to split bills this way).
> that many, many non-criminal members of that public are doing the $10.50/h thing with no such support and very limited opportunity.

The two ideas are not mutually exclusive. The non-criminal members of the public shouldn't be subjected to this either.

Yes, there must exist unskilled, low-paying labor -- but there also must exist ample opportunity for education and self-betterment for (almost) ALL individuals.

The most heinous of persons excepted, of course.

We're actually even at the point where Java has added language support for sum types and pattern matching!

Java is also the most prominent example of a lack of null safety. Once Java gets around to fixing that in the next century or two, then Go will really be behind.

I never claimed that he was mid-trip? But by his own admission, the use of mushrooms induced some form of psychosis that distorted his ability to perceive time or understand what and what is not reality. I fully support decriminalization of psychedelics, but I also don’t think they’re free from harms, especially for those with mental health problems.
This will never happen here in the US - a much smaller amount will get spent on lobbying with a dazzling effect.
You’re conflating nicotine with tobacco again.

For me, quitting smoking was easier than quitting coffee addiction. Coffee is everywhere, cheap, and consumption is all but encouraged. If I were to smoke I take on all sorts of baggage. Much of smoking is about being a smoker which is a mindset and community that is hard to leave. Social effects can be much stronger than physical dependence.

> In particular, even treatments that directly reduce amyloid-β in the brain did not restore cognitive abilities.

Correct, but this doesn’t constitute “fake data”. It could be that amyloid-β is a marker rather than a causative factor. Or it could be that amyloid-β related damage is downstream, and remove amyloid-β after the damage has been done won’t remove the other damage.

It’s too quick to wave away an entire field because a single theory didn’t pan out. Most medical research proceeds with a lot of dead ends before it is figured out.

Neither the bookmarklet or F8 is ideal if you want to retain focus and any other state that you may effect by going and clicking or pressing a key.
Hmm. That brings up an interesting take on “make work visible”.
It appears there are some conflicting studies, like with everything.

My best interpretation is that nicotine itself probably isn't the-worst-thing-ever if it was restricted to occasional usage, like having a beer on the weekend.

It's probably not a good idea to make a habit of though like with coffee.

There's a theory floating around that it may help with long-Covid symptoms, but there's not a lot of evidence. This may be in part due to the general opposition towards tobacco as extremely unhealthy.

I only heard of this because a neighbor says using nicotine gum restored her sense of smell.

Again, anecdotally I had a relative, very heavy smoker, who got Delta and had very mild symptoms. She's 80 and in pretty poor health. Others younger in the same household had it much worse.

You should absolutely know the value of your time. Leisure time has a value to you.

I pay someone to maintain my yard because I don't want to do it. I don't want to own the equipment either. It makes financial sense. So, even if I'm inside watching TV and hanging with my family, it's money well spent for me.
By that logic, the worst possible recidivism rate (surely 100%) would make someone 1500x more likely to commit crime than a non-offender.
That’s still a pretty good case for having effective rehabilitation (unless you insist on the death sentence for all prisonable offences)
Japan no longer issues IC cards.
This comes off as excessively negative. They had a hypothesis, found out it isn't how they thought both from consumer and restaurent perspectives, moved away.

Far worse ideas sprout everyday and many get positive attention as well. Judge the process along with the idea.

With the context in this thread I would implement it as dynamic cancellation fees. You pay to reserve, but 100% reedeemable on bills. If you cancel, you lose a clearly notified percentage based on how popular the time slot is. Might work while still staying true to the idea of fairness.

Given Golang popularity, it probably managed to solve more than Google's internal issues.

It most likely ticked quite few boxes right:

* easy syntax

* fairly extensive std lib

* easy memory management & mostly painless GC

* easy shipping of dependencies (everything in one file, including runtime)

* order of magnitude less tricky parallelism.

In a world where Golang doesn't exist, quite a few recent software would probably look really different:

* Etcd but in Java (hello Zookeeper)

* Terraform but in Python

* Docker but in C/C++ or Python

* Kubernetes, but in Java and/or Python and/or C++ (hello Mesos)
* Prometheus, but in Java and/or C/C++

And honestly, for most of these, either because alternatives in such languages do exist and mostly failed, or from performance/stability concerns, I think we would not have been better of.

Not really. What was offensive was the expectation of requiring to be logged in to a Google account. That's a slip up (?) I expect from my mom or dad. It's not something a hiring manager for a tech position should do. If they found that funny - Google being evil - then their sense of humor is as questionable as their IQ.
So somehow everyone believes that IT people don't communicate well, but the IT people know that they actually communicate well. Erm, okay. I feel like there could be another explanation, but it escapes me.

Unrelated, but how do HNers familiar with the Bay Area think about living in the Los Gatos mountains area?

Seems nice and (relatively) affordable for the Bay, with good schools for kids, but concerns I can see from a distance are the somewhat longish commute to the rest of the Bay + wildfire risk since most homes are surrounded by forest.
I was terribly addicted for a decade, smoking and then vaping, and for me, withdrawal was almost intolerable. For about three days, it was a terrible experience. I felt sick, raged with anger, cried, felt unhinged, and even had minor visual disturbances. It can really only only be compared to a bad psychedelic trip. But once I did manage to get through it, that was it. It hasn't much bothered me since. Stopped thinking about smoking about a week after. I can't say I crave it really, and I cannot relate to the long-term experiences where people say it takes months or years to get fully over it. We're all different.
This is a lot more possible now that Go has generics (as of 1.18).

I would probably never use these, as I find such libraries are a whole new domain-specific language to learn, and often don't make things much simpler anyway, but here are some libraries where people have done something like this:

- https://github.com/ahmetb/go-linq: modelled after LINQ, but created pre-generics so only recently added some generics features

- https://github.com/samber/lo: kind of like JavaScript's lodash library but for Go 1.18+ (with generics)

- https://github.com/asynkron/gofun: simple library with stand-alone functions to filter, map, and so on

I dunno about that. Personally, I smoked cigarettes for about 5 years, then quit for about a decade, and then picked up vaping a few years ago.

I’m definitely just as addicted to the Juul as I ever was to cigarettes, if not more so, and it definitely seems like it will be harder to quit. Cigarettes are so gross it’s almost a benefit, you need to go outside to smoke, the vape is just so easy and so much cleaner, I’ve definitely found it much harder to cut down.
A few jobs ago, there was a huge influx of hacking attempts coming from some specific part of India. Until we could figure out the best way to detect and block those nefarious connections, we decided to just block ALL traffic from that area.

Answering your question directly: RE is 60% of my daily work, and I don't use and don't know anyone who uses LLMs for RE. One reason is that you lose interactivity if you process code using something other than your decompiler of choice, and it's a huge problem - you want to stick to your RE "IDE". The other is that, at least in my line of work, I don't need perfect code, just to understand what's going on and maybe a few critical functions.
Well that's true of literally every thing that is made and every service delivered. There's an absolutely huge industry build around primary education that dwarfs the prison industry by a significant margin.

Actually prisons and schools have quite a lot in common so maybe you're onto something.
cigarette smoke also has a bunch of other stuff, including MAOIs. it's definitely not _just_ the nicotine. iirc, cigarettes also have additives to make the nicotine hit harder / cross the blood brain barrier faster, which probably doesn't help
