> You can't trust online food delivery at all anymore.

Why? Is their food bad?
Does it not taste the same and potentially hotter/fresher since the kitchen may be closer to you?
Yeah, this post needs a date added to it.

2.0 is from 2005.

Strange that he says that systems should never reboot, but lists Windows XP as one of his favorites. Granted, XP was better than what came before it (particularly the 9x line), but it still needs to reboot occasionally, especially after updating it.
When I was a kid, AI only tried to convince us to leave our wives! How times have changed...
It is incredibly difficult and time consuming. Choosing what to eat is already a fraught experience for many. In the Uber Eats app, I find myself changing from Delivery to Pickup so that the UI will expose the address of the restaurant. There are about 3 addresses that are heavily used for ghost kitchens that I want nothing to do with after being delivered heated up trash. I feel bad for the local authentic Vietnamese restaurants around me that are now competing with 10 new pho places.

I just wish there was a filter to exclude them from the options. The more friction I encounter with food delivery, the more likely I am to rethink just making something at home and save me the frustration.
I'll address the first non-clickbait question and try to provide some insight, as I think you might be a bit confused on how COSS startups work.

We don't plan to monetize WASIX. WASIX is just an enabler to allow any program compile to WebAssembly. If other open-source technology existed and fulfilled what we want to accomplish is more than certain we would not have created WASIX.

In our case, the community was asking to have sockets, threads, forking, subprocesses and more fully working on Wasm. And there was nothing that supported that (or that aimed to support it), so we worked on it.

Now, let me give more insight on what we actually plan to monetize: Wasmer Edge [1]. Wasmer Edge is the alternative to the expensive big-tech providers that allows any person or company to host their websites at a fraction of the cost.

Hope the insight was useful!

I had a similar issue but on my lower right abdomen. Doctors couldn't find anything wrong. In my case only reducing my portion intake and phasing out highly processed foods particularly grain products seemed to address the issue.
They don't seem to be dunking.

The title of the the piece/submission would be well served by calling it a simulated radar. I, like I suspect many others, clicked on it because I was honestly intrigued by the concept of some sort of homebrew radar. Setting that bar and then seeing that it's some API results plotted on a simulated radar screen is a bit of a letdown.

Submission is clickbait. It's a cool project, sounds like fun and I'm sure their kid likes it, but the root post is not wrong.

I use reddit a good bit still (as I'm sure most of you do as well) and I'm starting to notice more and more comments (and accounts, by extension) that are blatantly and clearly "ChatGPT" responses. Like, it's obvious just by skimming the content because it's clearly just "ChatGPT-style".

Ask yourself what mathematicians do today...

They decompose problems, solve specialized subsets, examine more general cases, use existing proofs, do some numerical analysis, etc.
I suspect OP doesn't know - it's one of the HN accounts that submits several times a day, ostensibly in an automated matter. I have a hard time believing Omea was found organically, as it's not even linked from JetBrain's main page anywhere.
yes been working on a 14" thinkpad also for about 10 years. I love it for productivity, it keeps me very focused on the task at hand; 1 tab/window at a time.

I do occasionally use my desk at work with 2 giant 27" monitors when I'm doing 1 specific project like UI design or writing documentation where comparing screens is beneficial.
Interesting article, should absolutely not be flagged.

...why? My favorite restaurant is a ghost kitchen, but makes healthy, hearty food that I like, and for a good price. If they had a physical restaurant I'd go there in person and eat there instead, but it's a niche food so I imagine they'd go out of business if they had to have the overhead of in-person dining. As long as I pay for food and I recieve it, why does it matter to you that there's an actual restaurant somewhere?
interesting to see twitter as a place for academic discussion, haha
This might just explain some variances in quality I've been experiencing lately.
>There's a lot more nuance to it than just "n000ds plz."

my point was about arbitrary lines, like the ones you are drawing, and judging people on the basis of them. I'm old and sophisticated, you think I haven't heard or understood all the nuances you're talking about? I have and do, and I also pick up on the nuance that you feel it puts you in a group of people who get to judge and tell other people how they should feel, because you are superior.

That's the nuance I feel you are missing. Why not let people be who hold a different opinion than you? the comment I was replying to here was gratuitous "why do people care so much about NSFW, I'm a superior human being because I don't." Well, why do people care how other people care about NSFW? doesn't that make you an inferior human again, mr. judgey judger?

just so you don't get me wrong, I was raised in a hippie commune "anything goes, we're superior" style, and only going through it that way did I discover how much bullshit it was. I'm not arguing from the "conservative side", I'm arguing from hell because I've been there and back. I just hate hearing it now. It was just another very rigid set of rules about what to believe and what not to believe.
> The dilemma parents are grappling with is this: tablets and smartphones, while beneficial for children's learning and socializing

Recent reports from teachers indicate that many children are intellectually behind their peers. A concerning trend is that these children struggle to hold conversations, a problem attributed to their parents phone/social networks addiction. Rather than engaging and raising their children through conversation and interaction, these parents often resort to pacifying them with tablets or phones.
And how do you know that restaurant doesn't order from ghost kitchen?
> But gravity is caused by the discrete particles (those with mass), so is it really continuous then?

Of course the field can be continuous, even if the weight is exactly some rational number. "Discrete steps" just means that the value differences in gravitational waves is also discrete. A bigger problem, where relativity clashes with QM, is stuff like singularity and superposition. We don't have an answer for that yet.
Can't be, I added some today. It might be the cache though.
"There have been 1000s of events chasing the same small sub-group of female speakers.”

Who would have thought, it's hard to find female coders in order to present some fantasy where there are a lot of female coders because there aren't a lot of female coders.

Everything on a woman's resume is doubted because it may have been due to affirmative action. Infuriating.
This is not, cannot be, and shouldn’t be math. Yes, it’s all “arbitrary”. Unhealthy impulse-items at the checkout are going to be regarded as quite unethical, by a lot of people, for really obvious reasons. The approaches you’re trying to use to “disprove” that isn’t how any of this works.

Many things are bad. Some are worse than others. Ones that are intentionally manipulative, as the impulse-buy aisle is, and greedily pushing high-margin products that are also unhealthy? Yeah, that’s an extremely shitty thing to do, no matter how common. The motivation is 100% greed, not delivering a better experience (as simply making candy and soda available in some normal aisle might). And in the Year of Our Lord 2023, every person choosing to create impulse-buy areas knows exactly what they’re doing and the effects it has.

The Starbucks bottles in the checkout aisle are, similarly, bad. The Starbucks that you have to walk over to, look at the menu with calories printed right next to each item while you choose what to buy, then stand in a second line, check out again, then wait at to get the drink, isn’t bad in the same ways. It might be bad in different ways, and to a different degree! But it’s not the same, and you’re not going to be able to construct some proof that requires I condemn those equally or else condemn neither, because that’s nonsense both in the specific terms of what we’re writing about, and also because it’s not a useful way to analyze or discuss these sorts of things in general.
TSA can screen people the same for rail, they just tend not to. Ideally we’d go back to pre-9/11 screening for everything.
Yep. Broadcom pays Google level but with much less fat and demanding an AWS style work ethic.
As others have noted, this is abandonware from 2005-ish.

But what were you imagining before you saw the screenshots? Is that something you'd use every day?
> I want to run this function on all the values in this array

I think most people get lost on the "run this function".

My impression from high school math classes is that very few people understand the concept of a function in abstract terms. Like, they will learn that sin(90) = 1, because it's a particular, specific function, but they don't understand functions as "first class citizens" in the sense of "apply this function to this array". That seems like a new plane of abstraction to which many never get.
But I'm not talking about "affecting", I'm talking about the direct action of knowingly obtaining stolen goods. That's not indirect, that's direct!

We can look at law as an example of an application of ethical concepts; it's illegal to knowingly purchase stolen goods.

That said, if you don't believe in ownership of "bits", then you probably don't care about this even if it were unethical to you to obtain stolen goods.

You also probably don't have a great deal of respect for property ownership generally, or capitalism, so there are more foundational issues that can't really be resolved in this context.
> VMWare has A LOT of fat to trim

Oh, VMware is the 2nd shortest job in my career, primarily for that reason.

I don't want to say much in a public forum, but my best lesson from working at VMware is how to sniff out an incompetent engineer early in a job interview: I just ask coding questions that a VMWare engineer would get wrong.

For example:

I have an engineer write some very basic manual SQL data mapping code. If the candidate really pushes back, or just can't figure it out, I move on.

I ask a question where the engineer should use an enum instead of a string. If the engineer uses an enum, I move on.
I'm a fan of microniche job boards
The entire thing is frontend only (except for the share feature) so the server never sees your key. You can validate that by watching the network tab in developer console. You can also make a new / revoke an API key to be extra sure.
I bet this'd be a lot more reliable than the free API I'm using

Synology has a good suite of products here that run on their NAS devices. Moments is a Google Photos clone - not quite as good, but definitely good enough.
So what happened to the discoverer? "In the end, Chen, who successfully earned his doctorate in the spring and has since gone to work in finance..."
It would be nice for conversations to be kinder, less snarky, and more curious. Could even edit out any swipes and internet-style cross examination as well.
they might as well add NCNR (No Cancellation, No Return) and million dollars engagement NREs while they are at it.

if you have BRCM as your key supplier, you better plan to keep them for life as otherwise.
A selective quotation which misses the point.

"Actually I made up the term "object-oriented", and I can tell you I did not have C++ in mind. The important thing here is that I have many of the same feelings about Smalltalk."
I remember watching this, and just skimmed it again at 3x. The video spends about half its time on the phenomenon of restaurants that are all relabeled versions of the same core concept --- that's, like, annoying, like I would feel taken if I ordered from a "restaurant" and really it was just one of 7 interchangeable labels for the same place, but it's not materially damaging in any way.

It then talks about health inspections, but doesn't really make a strong case for how ghost kitchens make health inspection harder; about the most it has to say is that it makes allergenic cross-contamination harder to evaluate, but that's not really something health inspections catch anyways!
They could also find work doing something more productive.

This is the same challenge that humanity has faced since the invention of the wheel.
The massive paragraph heading size compared to the text itself doesn't do the readability a whole lot of good, either.
> Short story long, don’t trust any of the community content; it’s full of ghosts and wolverines and those people you meet at parties that start the conversation with “so what do you do?”… Rely solely on the official RPi docs.

Remove "RPi" and this is such a good advice: always go for the official docs first.

Search for something mildly uncommon on Google (like "python3 __file__") and first page is full on random re-telling junk... geeksforgeeks, tutorialspoint, askpython, pythonanywhere... Those things are likely "mostly correct" which is IMHO a worst thing of correct - they may omit of important details, or refer to old version of python, or present deprecated way, or describe implementation detail that should not be relied upon.
My personal result was quitting 10 years on reddit and giving up my worthless but substantial karma.

The next result is that I noticed I became less argumentative in real life and tend to keep my opinions to myself more, all in all much appreciated by those I love. And my mental health is better.

The next result is that in going back occasionally to scroll through reddit it seems MUCH more obvious to me that almost every post is designed to incite anger, controversy or judgment. It didnt feel nearly that obvious before.

And there are some clear indications that bots are running rampant. Especially r/AITA (Am I The Asshole) where EVERY post is now almost exactly the same length, written about some situation that is quite stupid or rage inducing that its hard to believe that anyone would bother to respond. But they do. Im guessing they have an intern pounding away at ChatGPT for 10 minutes to create the next 100 AITA's

Lastly, Ive migrated to tildes.com, and much smaller community where I was/am startled to see that people can communicate politely even when they disagree and rage baiting does not exist. Its not nearly as busy as reddit was and the topics are far more limited but the quality is miles above the poor posts that now permeate reddit.

You mean something like the Hyperscale service tier? This is what we are building our new products on top of.
I tried to use Clojure a few weeks ago. I have two projects for it: the first is that I have a "TOML test matrix" where I compare different TOML implementations against the test suite. This works by feeding a binary a TOML document which then outputs a description of that in JSON. I set that up for a whole bunch of languages.

The second is instaparse, which I'd like to use to quickly test a TOML document against the TOML ABNF.

I couldn't get either to work. As in: I can't even get very simple examples to compile. The tooling is super confusing and weird. I appreciate that a lot of tooling you're not familiar with can be confusing and weird, but I managed to get to a lot of languages for my TOML test matrix to work, including many where I'm not familiar with. For some that took some time and patience, but that's okay. Clojure is the only one thus far where I just gave up (for now anyway).

So at least part of the answer to "why isn't it more popular" is "the tooling isn't very good". Maybe the tooling is "simple" by Hickey's definition of that, but it sure isn't "easy" by my definition, and in the end, "easy" does matter, especially for these kind of things.
It can, but on the cheap canons the printhead is part of the ink canister, so if you just have to get new ink and problem solved. On the brother they use a higher quality printhead that is part of the printer. Good, unless something happens to that head and you can't fix it.
Average individual does not know how to open a terminal window. :-)
I believe they still do after and possibly before the flight. They used to do it during the flight!
Post the original source and then workarounds in comments. Screenshots of random things are worse - hard to check authenticity, poor accessibility, removal of context, etc.
US population can be approximated as relatively dense populations in California, the Northeast, a central portion of Texas, and parts of the Midwest, with rural Europe-ish levels of density (with some greater pockets of density nestled within) in the rest of the country ~east of the Mississippi (and a lesser degree in the Pacific Northwest), and truly empty regions basically everywhere else.

In terms of where there should be lots of trains that there isn't, it's largely the Midwest outside of Chicago, Texas Triangle, and the Southeast, all of which could probably support hourly intercity HSR trains if they were competently built (although especially in the Southeast, this is going to be restricted basically to a single corridor).
I used to work as an electronics technician.

To do some wiring that'll be bulletproof and last:

1. get wiring rated for under-the-hood heat (the wiring sold at auto parts stores is no good for that)

2. get crimp-on connectors

3. cut the plastic off the crimp-ons

4. put heat shrink tubing on the wire, well away from the end

5. crimp the connector on

6. solder the crimp joint using a thermostat controlled soldering iron

7. move the heat shrink tubing over the joint, and heat it with a bic cigarette lighter to shrink it on

8. voila!

P.S. Crimped connections don't last. After about a year, they'll work loose a bit from vibration, and corrosion will creep in, and you'll get a loose connection that is very frustrating to find. Soldering it prevents that from happening.
TLDR: NIMBYs are unhappy about the traffic problems caused by economic progress.

Ghost kitchens are great. Regular restaurants are simply too inefficient to scale. And yet Americans spend about 5% of their waking lives on food prep. One day, making your own dinner could be an occasional hobby, like knitting your own sweater.

The long term promise is especially high with robotics. Your food could be made by a robot, the whole delivery could happen with an autonomous vehicle. And if the food robot is centralized, I don't have to worry about the cleaning and maintenance myself.
Super cool! I love this. Makes me yearn for a day when this map is way more full of activity.

Just a little feedback: the color for Amtrak and for Chicago's Metra trains are so similar it's hard to see at a glance where the Amtrak runs are amongst the many Metras that are out at a given time. Would be awesome to differentiate those marker colors a bit more.

Very cool! Didn't know this was even technically possible with the available data feeds. Great work!
It's not beneficial for working class people: they are more likely to have old, polluting vehicles, and can't afford an extra tax when already dealing with rising living costs.

This is in a way very similar to the Gilets Jaunes protests in France. Why should the poorest have to foot the bill for the excesses of the richest?
Not totally sure on this, just making an informed guess:

I think "passenger rail" implies passenger trains running on the "full/main" railroad lines that run all over the US. Something like light rail or local transit typically have their own discrete lines, in my experience.

Again, could be wrong, that's just how I interpret it.

Disregarding regulations and externalities worked well for him the last time.
Yes, the glory of social media. One of the most brilliant minds in databases, and he's "this guy."
> Why do you care? ... you're still getting the same product.

My experience has been that food from ghost kitchens has been incredibly subpar when compared to the same food ordered from that same restaurant's brick-and-mortar location.
Is being connected to a digested snapshot of the internet really that different from being connected to the actual internet?

I'd argue that they are connected to the internet in a meaningful sense
The problem is when the ghost kitchen is hiding the fact that you're ordering from a restaurant you don't actually want to order from. You might be 100% certain you want pizza, and you don't want Dominos. But, you see "Master's pizza" and you give it a shot, without realizing it is just a ghost kitchen operated by Dominos.
I think the proliferation of fake restaurants in DoorDash is super annoying. But I'm generally reluctant to order from any place without a real-world reputation anyways.
And why not real jobs for the thousands? Why does it have to be bullshit jobs?
Python has complex mechanisms to avoid depending on "whatever random stuff is in /usr/lib/python$v/site-packages" like pyenv and whatnot. Clearly that approach comes with a lot of downsides, too. Most newer languages avoid this pattern, including Rust, Zig, and probably others, and languages that don't tend to have workarounds; e.g. npm, bundle, etc. all use a "local" installation by default.

And while security problems are of course still a thing, there are a lot fewer of them than in C. Even in C it's not as bad as in "buffer overflow of the week" like in the 90s. It's that argument that's 30 years out of date.
I used to do that as well when I was still a SWE and then a PM. VMWare has good talent (when I first became a PM a long time ago, I was mentored by a very smart VMWare PM alum), but it also has a lot of empire building (when I first became a SWE a large portion of my management was VMWare EM alumni who weren't that impressive).

Also, a lot of their early management feel like one hit wonders in my experience working with them.

It reminds me of how PANW was before Arora joined and cleaned house, and Symantec/CA before Broadcom cleaned house.
