Woa of course, this is the point.

The author's example with random points is bad because you might reasonably expect people to behave differently than uniform random points.

It'd be reasonable to expect that people who are good at a thing estimate that they are good at it, and that people who are bad at a thing, estimate that they're bad at it. I mean, my kids love math and always estimate themselves to do well on math tests (and they usually do). They have classmates loudly detest math, estimate they'll do badly, and often do (at least somewhat). Similarly I'm a bad cook and I have no doubt that if I join a cooking contest, I'll get few jury points. The expected data is correlated.

So if a study finds that, well actually, the data is not at all that correlated! Lots of people who estimate that they'll do fine actually don't, and equally many people who estimate that they'll do badly, actually do fine (ie it looks like uniform random data), then that's surprising, and that's the D-K effect.

Right? I'm no statistician at all so I might be missing something.
I build docker images with Nix, so I just update the library by updating my nix flake.
I indeed thought about software tools although not software engineering in particular. More like classic Unix tools.
All I can get is callbacks for some places. This is newish. You can call, wait in the queue for 20+ minutes, get routed to voicemail, and leave an option for a callback. That’s it. And the CSRs won’t reveal any semi-secret info to confirm who they are, they just want info to confirm your identity. It is frustrating because “calling them first” for anything billing related has been my go-to for a decade.

I would argue that those social constraints ought not hold in the face of growing housing scarcity, and the predictions that all else will remain static in people’s behavior is usually an inaccurate one.
We have long seen echo chambers outside of algorithims back when the word was obscure. The phrase "preaching to the choir" is quite illustrative of this effect as the fringe or extremes select for friendly locales. In addition to that are leaders being surrounded by yes-men and culturally ensuring dissent is hidden.
Maybe he's thinking about the story about how Queen Victoria used to find the claret at state dinners too weak for her, so would take a flask of Royal Lochnagar whisky to supercharge her wine.[1]

So how does this work in practice? Do I feed it an ISO? Are Steam games supported?
Reasons this is significant, IMHO:

• Most importantly, it makes fallback and load-balancing available for regular people; just spin up an extra web server somewhere else and add it to the DNS, just like a secondary MX. Mostly no need for a CDN anymore.

• The importance of SNI is lessened, since the DNS can now point to a port number as well as a host name. This makes it possible to have web server configurations without an enumeration of all server names; just have the web server use a certificate from a file and listen to the correct port number – no need to configure host names.

• The possibility to have separate web sites use different ports makes process isolation easier without having to go through a gateway host.

• It frees the apex DNS domain name from having to have an IP address; an IP address is harder to keep updated than a simple host name of a web server.

In summary, these things either make it easier to live on today’s internet without Google, Cloudflare, or other centralizing actors, or they make it easier for the smaller web hosting providers, or both.
Building them isn't so bad. Using them is where it causes problems.

What's the trend there?
I thought that jokes were not allowed here
If that’s true it’s truly unfortunate the because there’s a sense of stability and security that comes with buying, and younger people tend to be among those who need that most.

I bought right before the interest rate shot back up with a ~5% down payment, and the past few years of ownership have improved my mental state substantially. You don’t know how much stress is caused by having that potential rent hike (and associated potential apartment hunt and move required to keep housing costs within reason) that comes with lease renewal looming on the horizon until it’s not there anymore.
Yes but it's Boulder, the promised land, according to here
I just make them tell me how to do it.

If they are behind an annoying IVR they usually know how to get back to themselves.

Of course don't take their word on what number to call, make them point to a part of their website that shows the number.

There are many ways to invest in real estate, but generally yes there is always an amount of uncertainty in investing.
ohhhh, exciting solution. I wonder if they have a 1:1 interface... Did you try it? Did you try setting indices?
Funny enough, revenge is something people willingly starve themselves for if need be.
He’s under 18? Impressive!
True: location is important. Tropical vs. temperate, elevation, rainfall, etc. And of course its composition.

The other lesson is that soils can take a long time to build up (on the order of ~1 cm. per year iirc, if that). Modern agriculture mostly takes from that, tending to leave degraded soils behind.

Some agriculture 'breadbasket' areas are only that because soils there had centuries of relatively little disturbance to build up into a thick, fertile mass.
I bought a home in 2017 and considering what I have spent on down payment, mortgage, taxes, insurance, and standard home maintenance and improvements in the last six years if I sold it today I would still make about 35% more than all the cash I have put into it so far. My home is simply not an expense, it’s a savings account I get to live in.

Of course YMMV…
Yes, had i thought about it a minute longer...
I dont think that ever makes sense in reality for several reasons.

1) Cost of labor is going up, 2) Taxes are going up, and 3) Cost of materials are going up, and 4) Population is going up.

When My house was built is 1915, Taxes were 8% of GDP and cost of a carpenter was $0.50/hour. Today, Taxes are 40% of GDP and cost of a carpenter is $30/hour.

This means my house would be far more expensive, even accounting for inflation.
DC is called the swamp for a reason, spreading those jobs around would make life more difficult for lobbyists and other parasites who extract wealth from tax payers so it will never happen.

DC is run like it's still the 1700s despite all the technology that makes it pointless for everything to run in DC. Logically having all leadership concentrated in a single place is a huge risk, but they won't change it
Wine for apple and they called it whisky?

Cider should be the name.
That first point is fair enough. Trying to play an old Tomb Raider is impossible nowadays, as no remapping can be done, so I can't use ESDF, so I won't play it.

I don't get the rest though. Of course it's not just WASD you gotta remap. I literally, for each game, go through the entirety of the controls and remap every key around my ESDF as per perceived usefulness of the command. Before I've ever played the game. Then as I start playing I might find that a certain key is more useful or less useful than I thought and I remap them. It always takes a minute or two until my muscle memory adjusts but that's about it.

I also agree with the standards thing, which is why I do the ESDF thing. That's what I am used to. And of course there were no cloud persistence and I still don't and won't use Cloud persistence. Why would I do or need that and what does that have to do with anything?

I do agree w/ my sibling post that shift, ctrl, alt had some advantage, if you needed a three key combo for something. Like I crouch with Z, so crouched strafing while also moving forward or backwards might have been a problem sometimes. Not nowadays though.

I think your issue is at least 50% absolutely not a lefty issue, but a willingness one. You mention you're still not as good when using the mouse w/ your right hand. I think it's totally worth it to "get over that hump" and try the mouse in the left hand and just do that remapping. If I was able to do it consistently throughout the years before Cloud was even a thing, you can do it too! ;)
They detect a cascade of secondary particles created from the collision of cosmic rays with the upper atmosphere. There are a lot more of them.

Here's it shorter: Take control of the things you can control and accept the things you cannot.

It's good advice. If you spin your wheels on things you have no control over, it's a waste of your time and energy. Focus on the things you enjoy, and the things you can change.
Yeah, I believe the trick is to have a bunch of links for different utilities all pointing to the same executable, which then varies it's behaviour based on how it was called.
Apparently. Without one, everyone ends up making their own.

Take UFOs for instance. Still absolutely no proof whatsoever that they exist but atheists are still obsessed with the topic.
I imagine being stronger than the base technology is what is being conveyed - ie. "wine is fine but liquor is quicker".
They mean that the value should rationally be expected to go down over time as it becomes older and needs repair.

They are wrong because there are many more factors than just speculation
Unfortunately, it's not just CO2 that has an effect on climate... there's also other gases, particularly methane, that are relevant for climate change. And with the current warming going on, there will be not "just" the methane emissions from fermentation, cow farms and leaking natural gas pipelines, but also a ton of methane from currently thawing Russian permafrost, or methane clathrate deposits (which alone are estimated to hold more carbon than all other sources of fossil fuels combined).
It uses photomultiplier tubes to record interactions of the cosmic rays with a good-sized chunk of atmosphere, plus detectors for the shower of particles when a cosmic ray interacts with the air. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telescope_Array_Project says it uses "a 762 km2 grid array with 1.2 km between each unit".

> The Telescope Array project ... is designed to observe air showers induced by ultra-high-energy cosmic ray using a combination of ground array and air-fluorescence techniques. ... When a cosmic ray passes through the Earth's atmosphere and triggers an air shower, the fluorescence telescopes measure the scintillation light generated as the shower passes through the gas of the atmosphere, while the array of scintillator surface detectors samples the footprint of the shower when it reaches the Earth's surface.

See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Resolution_Fly%27s_Eye_Co... , an earlier version.

We have other observaatories which are also pretty big, in the km-sized range.

There's IceCube, a neutrino detector observing events in a cubic kilometer of ice, at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IceCube_Neutrino_Observatory .

And KM3NeT, under construction will be a neutrino detector using several cubic km of ocean, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KM3NeT. It is the next generation after ANTARES, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANTARES_(telescope) .
It's weird. I knew a pitbull mix that never got into that mode. It was a lab put mix. I guess it always depends on the dog too.
This doesn’t isolate the devices from each other, though. (Well, maybe if you have isolation set up on the AP and the devices are all connected to the same radio or isolation happens to work across radios and no one exploits any of the myriad ways in which Ethernet, on the same broadcast domain, is not a secure protocol.)
It would be nice to have a situation in which land in desirable locations was not scarce and increasingly desired over time, I suppose, but its not a prequisite for a “healthy market”, and the other alternatives for achieving that require active intervention in ways which make it far fron a healthy market.
My first thought was to SRV records:

> C.1. Differences from the SRV RR Type

> An SRV record [SRV] can perform a function similar to that of the SVCB record, informing a client to look in a different location for a service. However, there are several differences:

> * SRV records are typically mandatory, whereas SVCB is intended to be optional when used with pre-existing protocols.

> * SRV records cannot instruct the client to switch or upgrade protocols, whereas SVCB can signal such an upgrade (e.g., to HTTP/2).

> * SRV records are not extensible, whereas SVCB and HTTPS RRs can be extended with new parameters.

> * SRV records specify a "weight" for unbalanced randomized load balancing. SVCB only supports balanced randomized load balancing, although weights could be added via a future SvcParam.

Wine, fortified with the power of porting? I should say Port was a perfect name.
You can get there with social housing through either:

- the Singapore model, rent-to-own via the government

- the Japanese model, housing is a depreciating asset

- the Vienna model, ubiquitous social housing up to mid-tier of the market

Personally I feel like renting or owning a house should be a choice of features, not of financial benefit. Buying a house should be about being able to make it your own (moving walls, redoing the garden, building a shed). On a 5, 15, 30, 60 year timeline, owning and renting a house should come out to the same financial net outcome.

The way to get there is murky to me. I have far too little understanding of the deeper effects government policies have on the real estate market to make even the roughest guess.
They left out corporate buyers...

> Large institutions owned roughly 5% of the 14 million single-family rentals nationally in early 2022.

But this relatively low number is deceptive because most of these purchases were past 2009 -- in the past they bought apartment buildings. Also they are focused on inexpensive homes in growing metro areas. So they basically beheaded the market, so to speak. This should never have been allowed but here were are near 15 years in and all that there is a few failed bills. For example: https://www.billtrack50.com/billdetail/1496012/18956
I don’t think you have thought this through. The fraudster call you, the app display nothing and you have no indication that anything is amiss.
BCE is 3% cash for groceries, online retail + gas which is pretty good for $0 AF. Still, I use the Gold Card for groceries and restaurants, 4X points and 3x on flights.

There are other eco systems, Chase + Capital One. There are hotel cards (Ritz Carlton which is a Marriott card), airline cards (Alaska Airlines Visa). The whole thing becomes a game of which card where and using credits and benefits to justify the AF. But it's second nature to me at this point. Apple Pay and probably Google Pay makes this easy. I rarely use a physical card.

Occasionally, Amex gets declined (grill inside an Indian casino late at night on I5, weird). Then I just use a Visa debit. In modern traveling, you need Visa as a backup. Visa is pretty universal.
I guess the point I’m trying to make is that there’s a big difference between “good time to buy” for the “average” buyer vs someone who has been hoarding capital waiting to jump in at a better time.

A recession probably will create a good opportunity for those who have been waiting and are in a position to avoid getting hammered by that recession. That is probably not the “average” buyer, but maybe more representative of some of the people here on this forum.
Nim maybe?
All x86 software being run on macOS relies on Rosetta 2. It effectively does a translation of x86 binaries to ARM binaries. Then, WINE handles the PE to mach-o translation along with providing a system call translation from Windows to *nix. Game porting toolkit then adds in macOS specific stuff as well as Vulkan and DirectX translation to Metal.
Depends on how much renting is. Waiting for a higher down payment while paying more to rent doesn't necessarily work out better.

Additionally having an emergency fund afterwards is super important.

Finally since prepayment penalties aren't a thing the difference between paying extra principal early on and a bigger down payment is mostly PMI. (And the interest on the payments until you make them)
What can go wrong with a single VM? Billing explosions in the cloud are always to do with auto-scaling services that go wrong. Plus, in that case your alternative is fighting Microsoft, Google or Amazon.
The growth I was talking about was more about the few billion people that have been dragged out of poverty and can now afford cars, AC, flying. I think that will out-emit anything the developed world does in going green.
UTC has no timezone and does not need a timezone. What utcnow() returns is absolutely correct.

That IANA unfortunately named the timezone indicator for UTC+00 'UTC', instead of 'UTCZ' or 'UTC+00' means nothing.

That in Python UTC has the same structure as a naive datetime means nothing.

Deprecating an absolutely correct function to coddle some ignorants is plain stupid.

Edit: What is not correct are e.g. the astimezone() and ctime() functions of a naive datetime, because they assume it is a local time. Those should be corrected to handle an UTC!
I am pretty pleased with it. It has its own set of nuances, but it is simple and works quite well with my needs so far.
> There's some sort of weird religious belief that economic growth is tied to environmental destruction, but it is not based in fact, merely faith. And it's a very harmful belief to actually improving the environment.

While I definitely agree with this, let's not pretend that the opposite state of mind (the free market will solve it!) isn't also a wildly destructive and misleading point-of-view when externalities aren't priced in to the economic costs of pollution.
The solution I prefer is to simply just encrypt the data such as IDs.

Instead of giving user an ID in response, user gets hmac(cipher(Data, secret_key), secret_key) + cipher(Data, secret_key) and then some simple pre-request handler just iterates over query params / form data and decrypts them if signature matches.

It also works as a really nice CSRF protection as user ID of currently signed user can be embedded into Data and checked if current user.id == decrypted data.id.

Another nice advantage is that you can deny the request right in the beginning as you know ahead of time that the provided data is not valid (signature doesn't match), saving some DB queries.

The down side is that URL gets pretty long though, but if that's hidden by browser or user doesn't care, it's a non-issue
> Yes, I know, Germany made a gigantic mistake decomissioning their nuclear reactors early. I strongly disagree with that choice, and I think there's a deeply rooted misunderstanding and fear of nuclear power in this country which is a big shame. Despite this, good progress is being made however.

You're not from Bavaria, I take it? Here, to this day hunters and shroom gatherers have to scan their produce for radioactivity because of the aftereffect of Chernobyl [1], but also due to the aftereffects of worldwide nuclear weapon tests [2].

Besides: the three NPPs that were shut down this year only had 1.4GW each - and we're building ~2GW in renewables each month. The capacity of the NPPs has long since been replaced by renewables.

Don’t be a doomer. I’m not sure what the intent is of your comment because what you’re saying is obvious to anyone who understands greenhouse gases and it’s pointlessly negative about one of the most important moments in the history of humanity since the Industrial Revolution started this
I don’t think this would help if your goal is not rapidly increase housing costs. If covid proved anything about the housing market, it’s that theres a housing shortage everywhere. Plenty of LCoL areas still have disproportionately high housing costs compared to median income now. When remote work was required, people fled cities and led to housing crises in areas that aren’t just major cities.

Great piece from M. Nolan Grey, who is an excellent twitter follow: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/08/housing-cr...
You could achieve this without any permanent alterations or opening the wall by putting a submersible pump in the tub and hooking the output up so the output from the pump goes into the shower head pipe. The water would come out of the tub faucet. You can even hook it up through a diverter used for a hand sprayer and the shower head would still be usable.

You should be able to get the parts to make an adapter for the output of the pump to the shower head at any hardware store. Use a length of PEX tubing to go from the pump to the shower fitting.

Make sure to use teflon tape on all the fittings and plug it in to a GFCI protected outlet. Make sure not to actually turn on the tub while this is hooked up or you could damage the pump.
Professional cameras often do not have auto focus, compare to some RED camera models. You either prepare your focus points ahead of time or you work in teams, where your camera assistants act as the "auto" focus.
I absolutely love this feature so much. I work at a competitor of Monzo and this is definitely something I'll bring up with our Product team to see if we are thinking about this.
It's vexing to me that so many seem to refuse to believe that stability is important to mental health (for at least some of us), and then wonder why young people are exhibiting ever greater mental health issues. I think only psychopaths are "happy" with the current state of things. Sadly, our institutions seem purpose-built to select them as our leaders.
Drinking wine at 17 is fine in many countries. The US is probably among the strictest.
> DC is called the swamp for a reason

Two main reaosons:

1. Political propaganda by (mostly, unusually corrupt) politicians cultivating an crusading pure outsider image by encouraging people to focus on negative inages of the soace the politician is seeking to enter and ignore the details of the politicians own personal record, and

2. The fact that it is built on a literal, not at all metaphorical, swamp.

That's strange. I use Firefox bookmarks pretty heavily and haven't had any of these problems. I type any bit of a URL or title for any bookmark I have in any folder, and Firefox finds it instantly every time. I think I have more than 1,000 at work (internal wikis, blahblah). A large part of my never switching to Chrome came from how much better Firefox worked for bookmarks. I use tags and ability to show tagged bookmarks from the URL bar a lot, especially. (i.e., "tag +" will show all of the bookmarks with that tag, but actually, you don't have to type the '+' unless you want to exclude matching the substring for anything but tags, because it searches tags when you start typing it also)
Books aren't only about efficiency and knowledge transfer.
Jack Campbell's "The Lost Fleet" starts with Dauntless, and is reasonably good at considering light speed issues in combat, tactics, and moving fleets of ships at low fractions of the speed of light, eg .1c

Also a good space opera, as well.
