>> 20 years of experience with Oracle SQL. She's an expert in that, but not in other dev stuff

I'm not so sure how much of an expert either. Everyone's parent is a hero to them so one has to take the statement they make with a grain of salt.

Is she "an amazing DBA"? If so she probably has little problem finding another job. If she just knows SQL or worse only "Oracle SQL", meaning little experience with other types of databases, well then she sounds like the kind of person of which there are aplenty who wants to learn one trade and do it for life, with little desire to diversify or re-qualify.

I'm not saying I've got a burning desire to "diversify or re-qualify" and the "churn and burn" characteristic of the software development sector is dear to my heart but I'm a professional, veteran soldier that knows very well what he's gotten into. This "job" isn't for everyone and there are different jobs where you get to re-use the knowledge that you acquire: law, medicine, accounting, teaching, cashier or stackshelver at Target etc. Only not the cruel slaughterhouse that's software development, in a war analogy I'd equate this mom's job with something in intendance versus brutal front line battles that most soldiers are forced to fight. But since she's in the army nevertheless, mustn't be surprised if at some point she finds herself sent to the front line.

>> How dare someone wish to maintain the work/life balance they have worked hard to attain. They must be lazy like your anecdotal associate.

I'm not making value judgements about her desire and in fact I'm sympathetic to her. Just pointing out the cognitive dissonance of having such desires and fantasies in the sector where she works.
You could use the Path prefix to only send to API endpoints where request has to be authenticated?

Or many usually have separate domain/subdomain names for API and static content in the first place.

I think having a separate prefix/subdomain would be generally good practice for defining scope which should be authed as well.
Isn’t this fairly intuitive? Wouldn’t this be somewhat akin to being surprised that the most productive workers are most affected by power/fuel disruptions?
Very original dialogue. Lolita existed before this dialogue so I think we should think about a piece of art (the movie) more than the moral implications in our society and/or in the 70s.

For real stuff we can read about Carrie Fischer and Harrison Ford relationship [1] she was not underage but very young.

BTW, I was almost ten when I watched the Return of the Jedi and Carrie Fischer enlightened me.

Ask HN: Codepen Style SQL Server
I've tried a few searches and can't find it but it feels like it should exist.

Is there a Codepen style (online playpen) SQL server and GUI client thing? Let's you make a toy database and query it within your browser, and persist the data against an obscure URL.
Ntfy is more like a tool to aggregate notifications for recipients themselves right? Novu is like a backend as a service for notifications.
My perfect bookmark manager is Markdownload https://github.com/deathau/markdownload

Just save the complete page, only selected text or only the link to a markdown file or Obsidian. With downloaded, linked or without pictures. My OS and Obsidian can search those files, they have more (automatically added) metadata.

I can even edit them in the browser: add your thoughts, tags or change the name of the file before they are saved.

I can (automatically) do with them what ever I need. They can be used to (automatically) generate an always up to date start page or a data vault on GitHub.

My local AI assistant can parse them.

Local, versatile, permanent, flexible, cost effective, future save. No need for a bookmark manager.
The `salt` in hashids just shuffled the alphabet. Now they removed the `salt`, but you can have the same level of "obfuscation" as before if you shuffle the alphabet yourself before calling the library.
Browser opened to Bing? Type "Google", then type "Facebook" then click on the link. Nevermind that typing "F"+enter in the addressbar would have worked.

It's UX, but Google and Bing want it this way, so...

What about models besides GPT? Most of the popular vector encoding models aren't using this architecture.

If you really didn't want PyTorch/Transformers, you could consider exporting your models to ONNX (https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime).
Scams can be so sophisticated in execution now that I'd quite expect someone to become a victim to one far before they otherwise appear to need the LPA to be used.

I have made it extremely clear to my older (not even elderly) relatives to never, ever agree to anything involving TeamViewer or any other kind of remote connection on a computer or phone. Take a number to call back if they want (do not agree to be called back later), then hang up and call me. And never, ever click anything in an SMS: not only can I not really explain how URL structures work, but companies keep using scammy-looking short URLs that even I can't tell apart, so complete interdiction on ever clicking a URL in a text is the safest way. And if I call saying I'm in jail, ask me for my car model and colour.

But I don't really know how to explain to them what is and isn't a scam on the 40 billion apps you're expected to use for banking, travel, parking, utilities, communications, everything with it's own security systems, quirks and bugs[1]. It's probably only a matter of time before a scam gets through (luckily the relatives are mostly not credulous enough or greedy enough to fall for most of them), but that doesn't mean I should execute an LPA and remove access to everything for their own good. Not least at that point they'll probably not be considered to be lacking capacity, a necessary condition for using the LPA, by the OPG just because they don't understand their mobile network's new login flow.

[1] which won't be fixed because most of these apps are consultancy effluence and they've been delivered and signed off on. So, the consultancy doesn't care any more and the recipient doesn't know how to maintain it even if they wanted to. Not only have they probably not got their own engineering these days, the app is an unmaintainable rush-job that is 90% technical debt and enough duct tape to get it over the acceptance wall before anyone notices. At best the issues will be fixed when the app is so completely untenable that another consultancy gets hired to rewrite from scratch. Then everyone gets a new app and a new set of "is this a scam" decisions to make.
Perhaps because the peer-reviewed paper was published only recently (23rd Nov) - while not a perfect system (see the recent issues with the retraction of the super-conductivity paper by Nature), I think it not a bad thing that journalists are covering such reports once they have undergone the peer-review process - however flawed it may be, and not just based on the university or research group published press-release announcing the results before the peer-review process is complete.

It's a reasonable assumption, given how addictive, plentiful and socially encouraged coffee is.
My father's mother was Mexican.

When I was born, my mother specifically requested that she teach me to speak Spanish. She refused to do so; when her own children were born, she had been forbidden from teaching them Spanish.
Up to this point, software systems have evolved in an environment where market monopolies were the norm and therefore a 'chosen few' software tools, libraries and frameworks have had an abundance of resources and talent dedicated to them.

It's hard for me to imagine an environment where software is constrained by the availability and cost of engineering talent and where maintainability becomes the number 1 priority. So far, I suspect that maintainability has ranked VERY LOW on the list of priorities. The only reason some systems are maintainable today is because maintainability is correlated with security which is a bit higher priority.

I feel like the priority of software development over the last decade has been 'shipping fast' as enshrined in Facebook's motto "Move fast, break things." everything else has been neglected in favor of shipping fast. So I can understand the author's point of view that software is likely to experience a decline; it was not built to last and thus requires an unreasonable amount of human resources to maintain.
This thread is going to be similar to threads discussing a paper that points out something negative about alcohol consumption. It’s easy to get defensive (sometimes irrationally so) about our drug habits which may have negative long-term effects.

If I’m being objective (as a “chronic” caffeine consumer) it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if daily consumption of more than 100mg of caffeine had long-term negative effects for many people. Even ignoring possible brain changes proposed in this article, the effects on mood, stress, sleep, etc. are apparent in my personal observations.

Now if only I could figure out how to consume coffee in moderation…
My personal experience im a daily drinker 2-3 cups, but can easily not drink for couple of days no problem. But i have high blood pressure my uneducated guess is that BP has a lot to do with how you handle non coffee days
> Those who consume it regularly, even in small amounts, are chronic consumers

Not as defined in the study we are discussing, which labels "chronic consumers" those who take more than 200mg of caffeine per day.

I've found I manually type out certain subsets of URLs where possible[0], maybe that's subconsciously associated with my impression that Google Search results have gotten worse and worse over the years.

If you overlook some idiosyncrasies due to its main purpose (references), Zotero really shines as a bookmark manager. It is mature and has a lot of advanced features. The last one I discovered is enabling hierarchical tags with an addon. [1]

I still welcome any new well-built alternatives like Grimoire, and I agree with you that a first-class UI is important.

I just can't believe it's 2023 and we're actually praising a shell for having arrays and dictionaries. Or that there are still multiple shells in use that don't. Or that people still ask questions like "What's wrong with bash though?" with a straight face, as if they don't know.

Now how long are we going to have to wait until somebody invents a way to do named parameters? That will revolutionize the computer industry! I guess it's way to much to ask for a built-in json or yaml parser, all we can hope for is maybe a stringly typed sax callback based xml parser after another 20 years from now, because dom objects in a shell would be heretical and just so unthinkably complicated.

Why are people so afraid to just use Python? Shell scripting and cobbling together ridiculously inefficient incantations of sed, awk, tr, test, expr, grep, curl, and cat with that incoherently punctuated toenail, thumbtack, and asbestos chewing gum syntax that inspired perl isn't ever any easier than using Python, especially when you actually need to use data structures, named function parameters, modules, libraries, web apis, xml, json, or yaml.
That hasn’t been true historically and is unlikely to be true in the future
In a way you could do so by prompting Monad with artificial intelligence stuff. I did a try lately on the latest OpenAI events and it went on like this: "In this sad and tragical storye, you shall heare how Sam Altman, a manne of great wit and judgement, was evicted out of his Companie of Artificiall Machines for want of candour in his Communications with the Board of Trustees…"
The high yields are reached because of those inputs. So without them yields go lower. The lower yields likely have much less of these inputs thus are not impacted as much by them.

Compare sustenance or near to highly industrialized farming. The first might use some inputs, but the later will almost certainly use them and in much efficient manner.
Coordinating Committee for Multilateral Export Controls (COCOM) limits is 1,000 knots (510 m/s) and/or at an altitude higher than 18,000 m (59,000 feet).

Commercial airliners usually have a service ceiling at about 40000 feet and a speed below the speed of sound (343 m/s). Even with a very strong jet stream of 100 m/s it's below the limit.

The Concorde had a service ceiling of 60000 feet and maximum speed of 605 m/s.
You're absolutely right. It can happen.
Which was required due the huge amounts of aerodynamic drag produced by aircraft designed for supersonic flight while flying subsonic. These design are very aerodynamically inefficient outside their cruise speeds, and thus require a lot of thrust. This phase of flight extends all the way from take-off, and climb out. Not just while barreling down the runway.

Having an extended subsonic flight period to do a mid-air refuelling would be brutal to the financial viability of a supersonic passenger aircraft. And that's even before we consider the operational costs of the tanker aircraft
I disagree that it's easier than the NYC subway. The 'zone' system is complicated for tourists who aren't used to dealing with that. Contrast to NYC subway where it's $2.90 (formerly $2.75) to walk thru the turnstile and go anywhere. It seems like Paris is adopting a similar model which is nice to see. NYC also has nearly 170 more stations than Paris.

1. Reproduction is already heavily subsidized in many countries, be it direct grants, tax breats and so on. This is nothing new.

2. Most people actually want children. Getting someone to actually procreate with that will share burden.

3. Investing in children should hel to fund future pension payments. There is pretty good case for self-interest.

4. China won't care, neither will Russia or other parts of world.

5. Countries that will do that will have a better outcome than countries full of retirees. Unless AI takes over, natural selection will take care of rest

> The field of statistics is not organized around concepts relating to "order" or "ordering".

Sure but reduced to the simplest form, statistics are used to predict things, the most basic thing in the Universe being "is this particle gonna stay put or move a little in a given direction", which is related to entropy, so to me intuitively these two things seem very related. The fact that in statistics we don't use the words "order" and "disorder" doesn't mean it doesn't reduce to that.

Btw I'm an electrical engineer that isn't amazing at statistics or thermodynamics so beware I might just be talking nonsense.

I used a Bash script for a long time that would take my new bookmarks each month and download a copy of the page. It came from an idea presented on HN, I would ack-grep it for search.

Stores using it because I use several computers and two OS now, and the utility of it is pretty low for me.

You could make a donation to Archive.org and just a script to check for an "archive-this" tag in your bookmarks, then pass those pages to archive.org??

Well, to be fair, Pirates of the Caribbean is a movie adaptation of a literal roller coaster based on a video game that was a lighthearted parody of pirate movies.

Perhaps brain plasticity has its own downsides. Otherwise, why evolution would make us lose a lot of it once we reach adulthood? If there was no downsides, keeping a plastic brain for the whole life would be very adaptive. A gotcha must hide somewhere here.
Correct. I also think that if the author would have said "minimum viable" or "baseline" in the title then all would have been forgiven.

You can easily contribute to the effort by running these two simple steps on your VPS or home computer:

docker run -d --name watchtower --restart=unless-stopped -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock containrrr/watchtower --label-enable --cleanup --include-restarting --interval 3600

docker run -d--label=com.centurylinklabs.watchtower.enable=true --restart=unless-stopped atdr.meo.ws/archiveteam/blogger-grab --concurrent 20 hackernews

You can launch the second command several times to run multiple worker containers in parallel. On a low-end VPS you can easily run 2-3 of them. With better resources, you can run 10 of them, 20, or even more!

Important: don't use VPNs, proxies, hotspots, etc.
For me it's now a tree of org mode files that quote that actual relevant part of the page, and a link back to the original.

But yes, over two and a half decades of storing URLs with little context other than their place in a hierarchy of topics has led me to the conclusion that data on the internet is ephemeral. If you want to save it, copy it.
> Old Norse is Germanic so I'm not sure whether you're suggesting those words entered the English vocabulary later, with the Vikings, of which I'm sure there are examples.

There are many. Often the native word coexists with the borrowed Norse cognate, as in yard / garden or shirt / skirt.

give is, I believe, subject to some debate. Without Norse influence, it would be pronounced yiv. People argue over whether it should be thought of as a borrowing from Norse or as a reversion of the pronunciation of the English word in a Norse-heavy environment. (etymonline has the second of those theories; wiktionary has the first.)
What would be those interests, an why?

Try pretending to be unbanked and switching to only cash for a month and you will quickly learn how many businesses refuse US currency, accepting only visabucks or masterbucks now.

We need laws mandating businesses accept cash, but until then the more people using it, the less businesses can justify dropping it
It's 60 lines for CPU only inference, which'll be slow. If you want GPU acceleration it'll be a lot more than 60 lines.
Maybe we could standardise on a set of adjectives to cover the spectrum from: "this is a handwave that needs filling in" and "this is cheap and cheerful code that does the basic thing" all the way to "this has been in production for a decade" and "this code not only handles 99,7% of the corner cases, it even also handles several dozen corner cases that only ever occurred on architectures which haven't existed since the 20th century"?
Well you're not going to believe it but I do have a FoucaultGPT just being trained (indirectly: Foucault is just part of my extended French historical corpus). As a sample:

Prompt : Écrit un livre de Michel Foucault sur les mesures de confinements pendant l'épidémie de COVID-19.

French historical model: Il est donc important de préciser que les mesures de confinement, loin d'être une simple réaction à la crise sanitaire, sont en réalité le résultat d'une longue histoire des techniques de gouvernementalité. Elles ont été étudiées et mises en place dans différents contextes (guerre, épidémies) au cours du XIXe siècle. Il faut aussi bien comprendre qu'elles ne se limitent pas à l'aspect médical : il s'agit également d'un ensemble de dispositifs qui permettent d'organiser et de contrôler un espace urbain considéré comme atteint par une maladie contagieuse. Le confinement n'est donc pas seulement une méthode pour empêcher les personnes infectées de sortir de chez elles ; c'est surtout une manière de surveiller les mouvements des individus et de les mettre en quarantaine si nécessaire. La question de savoir comment ces mesures ont pu être acceptées par les populations doit être posée dans le contexte historique où les techniques de gouvernementalité ont été développées et appliquées. Enfin, il est essentiel de souligner que la pandémie actuelle a mis en lumière l'insuffisance des systèmes de soins publics et privés, ainsi que l'impact socio-économique de cette crise. Les questions liées à l'accès aux soins, au financement des hôpitaux, à l'emploi et à la sécurité sociale doivent être abordées dans ce contexte.

You can use Open Street Maps to monitor the flight without the internet connection.

I often use it to watch how the plane speeds up for take off and slows down for landing.

Sometimes you have to keep the phone closer to the window. Luckily you get the list of currently connected GPS sats so you can debug whether hiccups are software/hardware related or poor GPS coverage.

It's lot of fun observing how early planes start going down in altitude before landing or trying to guess river and city names from up top.

A ring is an important traffic egress/ingress source. More often than not, your destination is directly on the ring and you're not using it to make two connections, just one is sufficient.
