This is true. The (ironic) lack of control of property holding to sell moronic. Well, technically it is the lobby industry which helps no citizen when they push back for measures that avoid accumulation of properties causing the market to concentrate loads of money on real state for obvious reasons.

In my city, they tried to implement taxes for those who own more than two properties and it would be more expensive for properties that had no one living. The result is that the proposal was quietly removed from the voting in a Friday night before a weekend followed by long holidays.

Soviets occupied lands more developed than them. They did not fail to invest, they looted the lands, for example the Uranium from Czechoslovakia [1].

If I have to give my recommendation, I used "Idiot's Guide: Music Composition" by Michael Miller. It required a lot of background reading, but once I understood chords and chord progressions well and melody construction it started, slowly, to come together. I don't know that it's a good book, but it worked for me.

I then read "A first book of blues, for the beginning pianist" by David Dutkanicz, which led me into blues which is kinda its own thing, I couldn't apply some of the algorithmic rules I had learned to the blues scale and I wanted to understand why. Admittedly the book didnt teach me the background theory of why that is the case but I did learn more concepts like syncopation and ways that the blues scales are constructed from a major scale and why
Not to put too fine a point on it, but didn't you just cherry pick a case?
Polyfill is in place, please let me know if its fixed and thanks

We know it because the Airbus 320NEO which is based on a late 80s design, does not have all the cons the 737 has, and was the reason Boeing scrambled to make the 737Max.
No, even when you are writing directly in swift/kotlin you avoid main thread at all costs. Any overhead here is a death sentence for performance.
I just wish that Linux would be less obnoxious about file separators and especially line endings.
Windows mostly just eats linux-style line endings and file paths without a problem, and MOST programs do not have a problem either.

Feed a windows-style path or line ending to linux? Watch how it dies with absurd errors.
TL;DR - We treat the per-customer usage data as the ground truth, and the per-customer cost can vary based on parameters chosen by the Dashdive user and their preferred mental model.

At a minimum, every customer is assigned the cost resulting from the usage that is directly attributable to them. This "directly attributable" figure is obtained by "integrating" vCPU-seconds and RAM-seconds on a per-DB-query basis, per-API-invocation basis, or similar. For example, if Customer X used 5 vCPU seconds and 7 RAM-GiB-seconds due to queries over a period of 10 seconds on our RDS cluster with total capacity 1 vCPU and 2 GiB RAM, then they directly utilized 50% of vCPU capacity and [7 GiB-sec / (2 GiB * 10 sec)] = 35% of RAM capacity over that period.

The question remains of how to distribute the cost of the un-utilized capacity over that period amongst the customers, perhaps distributing some portion to special "desired headroom" and "undesired headroom" values. As you mentioned, the answer is subjective and can vary between Dashdive users (or even over time for the same Dashdive user, e.g. a user decides they can reduce their desired headroom from 30% to 20%). The only sensible approach in our opinion is to make this configurable for the user, with sane and explicit defaults.

Let's go through both your examples to illustrate. In example 1, each of the 4 equally sized customers would be assigned only 12.5% of the total cost of the cluster. The dashboard would show that, by default, 30% headroom is desired, so out of the remaining 50% capacity, 30% would be marked as desired headroom, and 20% would be marked as undesired headroom. The user can override the desired headroom percentage. Although in our opinion it is most correct for all headroom to be treated as a fixed cost in multitenant scenarios, we would also provide the option to distribute both/either headroom types amongst all customers, either proportionally or equally.

For example 2, our model is not sophisticated enough to capture the nuance that losing only the larger customer would allow cost reduction. Assuming both customers used both databases (let's say they're replicas or shards), and 0% headroom, we would simply assign 40% of costs to the smaller customer and 60% of costs to the larger one. This is subtle, but the missed nuance is only important if $100/m is the finest-grained resource you can get. Otherwise, if you lose the 40% customer, you can switch to a 2x $60/m DB, for example.

This is a very astute callout! It has come up a couple times as a point of concern from prospective customers. Would be keen to hear if this diverges from your expectations at all.
And why should it? If one sympathetic case is found by these articles it means there are many others, why should we care about the triple murder example you just conjured out of thin air?

Prisons are not free, that's why it should be an incentive for a society to work towards not needing prisons, when the incentive is for prisons to be profitable (or at least cover their costs) you created a perverse incentive for the existence of prisons, for the punishment of crimes with prison time, etc.
You can do all of those things sans inhabit the same space with people you meet online. I met my 2 girlfriends online and we support each other through everything even though we aren't in the same place most of the time. I'm part of a niche group on reddit that supports each other emotionally in a way I've struggled to find in physical spaces. I still meet up with people in physical space, but I absolutely get meaningful social connection from online spaces.
Thanks! It's on the roadmap :)
It does not claim it's a generic term. The whole page is about variable fonts as derived from "Apple's TrueType GX font variations"; one sentence taken out of context doesn't change that. If you search the internet for variable fonts, you only find people talking about this technology. Parameterized fonts as in metafont have never been called variable fonts and trying to claim otherwise is just creating unnecessary confusion.
I watch a lot of series and movies, yet again, never felt an urge to rewatch one - not even those I would say I loved. There's no wonder anymore, so why would I? Can you tell me why you do rewatch things? I assume you don't mean after a long time when it got mostly forgotten, right?

That's right. Living in the UK and taking an interest in popular science during the "mad cow disease crisis"[0], I had been aware that prion diseases can be transmitted in humans if (for example) you eat (infected) brains of your dead ancestors[1], but the headline as originally submitted ("Scientists document first-ever transmitted Alzheimer's cases") did suggest to me that we might be at the start of something altogether new and much more alarming.

My comment talks about how the solution space for a toaster and a plane are completely different.

A simple thermal fuse to prevent catastrophic failure of a toaster is an example of a solution that works for a toaster. It's cheap. If the toaster handle gets stuck, the fuse heats up, trips, and the toaster is inoperable but there is no fire. The customer can replace the toaster or the thermal fuse.

That solution doesn't work for a plane, because if the fuse trips mid flight and the anti icing system doesn't work until the plane lands and maintenance replaces the thermal fuse, the plane is screwed if it encounters icing conditions during the same flight.

A timer doesn't work in this case, since from what I recall keeping the anti-icing system on is okay as long as the plane is in icing conditions. It can only overheat if the anti-icing is kept on outside of icing conditions for a few minutes.

Realistically, the system should work the same way it works on other planes; if it's forgotten, then it could waste energy but shouldn't cause the engine to fail. It's only because the engine inlet is made of composite materials instead of metal that this is a problem, but this is a problem of Boeing's own making.
> But it will also benefit indie artists, who'll be able to create record label quality tunes with much less effort, just like Stable Diffusion makes it possible for anyone to be an "artist".

I don't think this is such a glowing endorsement of why people make music and produce music. I think AI will do amazing things to improve what we have and speed up the most frustrating parts of production (noise removal, time alignment, retuning, writing harmony parts to existing melody lines. Simply look at companies like iZotope (like RX or Neutron), Hush Pro etc - I know it sounds a little 'faster horses' but I really think AI needs to remove the 'hard' part and not the 'necessary part' of being a musician/artist/audio engineer.

The 'black box' effect of AI that simply 'writes a song' feels less useful and less impactful, that's not what being an 'artist' should be about.

I have a sneaking suspicion that major record labels are likely looking at AI for more boring and partially sinister means like DRM tagging/finger-printing, more advanced content-ID etc, heck maybe even virtual artists that they can spin up in-house so they don't have to pay anyone: the perfect 360 artist, geeze.

> Databases are not as transaction-safe

Yes they are. Transaction-safe does not mean "protecting against concurrency issues". It just means that a transaction either succeeds or fails, nothing more and nothing less. Then there is isolation which is an orthogonal thing. So let's use the correct wording here.

> it won't protect you (more specifically - your data) from logic issues

Nothing protects against logic issues though.

> Embrace eventual consistency and use a persistent, append-only message queue, and these problems go away

I agree that eventual consistency should be embraced, but it doesn't make the mentioned problems go away. How would a persistent, append-only message queue allow for solve the C of CAP while retaining A and P? Of course it can't. How does it protect you from logic issues? Of course it can't.

Hard manual labor has long been accepted as an appropriate punishment for crimes. Prisoners are deprived of rights... by due process... by a jury of their peers. That's intentional. It's a feature, not a bug.
I have the same problem. It is a good language to teach to non-cs majors. If you want to build something out of the box, use Python. However, GPT is coming and maybe we won't even use Python anymore for simpler tasks.
The problem is processing power. Encoding of anything takes a lot of battery power, so the complexity must be kept at a minimum.

That said there is a successor called LC3 [1], but hardware support for it has been lacking as it's a relatively fresh standard.

If you don't need any native plugins other than those provided by Expo Go, then yes.

If you do need other libraries, or add native code yourself, the package system becomes a nightmare. It is NPM packages on top of Cocoapods on top of a XCode/Swift/Objective-C compile process. Only slightly better on Android.

Want to make a change to a library? Good luck getting linking working on your local setup.

Cordova had exactly the same issues. I'm not sure if Ionic Capacitor is better, but this is one area where Flutter is miles ahead.

I think the Windows registry is a classic example of a great idea in theory, but with regrettable quality of execution.

It could have been done a lot better. With a schema, self-documenting, with an integrated package database, with less insane legacy cruft.

But some of that's what you get with 30 years of history, with many decisions made in another era when resources were much more limited

At risk of picking nits, I feel like if the output of a joinPath call is being used somewhere where escapes can be interpreted at all, something that has nothing to do with your choice of path separator is very wrong.
It’s a promising start - as you say, it’s certainly barebones!

Poss roadmap items:

* Can the original organiser set some limits around which days can be selected? Or even lock it down so _only_ those dates can be chosen from?

* Introduce the concept of times too - what’s the expected duration of the event? This should help participants choose their availability.

* Edit your responses.

* Leave your email to be kept up-to-date with changes.

* Main display of results from all participants - add a calendar view.

* Highlight or sort the most popular/feasible dates
Hence one should be wary of accepting the promise to be paid decades in the future by anyone other than the US federal government, or much more regulated entities like insurance companies. If the payer is not US federal government, stick to broad market index funds in 401k/IRA.
For what it's worth, .NET Core has the same capabilities of abstracting away pathname separators, if one wants it. Personally, I don't regard such things as useless and unneeded; because I see the value in not writing programs that break what has been a well-known piece of computer lore for 4 decades: namely that one can be Unix-like to a degree on non-Unix platforms such as MS-DOS, DOS+Windows, OS/2, and Windows NT.

> but that didn't mean it was a good as it could have been

Nothing is, and nothing can be. Not even if you eliminate cost from the equation. Not even if you eliminate manufacturability, or supply chain availability. You're holding the original iPhone to an impossible standard.

The iPhone was arguably the best product Apple could have made for that price, to be released on that date. Sure it could have been better and more expensive. It could have been better and further delayed. It could have been better and also worse in some other way.
Someone has to hand the browser the token. And that token has to validated by someone's backend. You now have an issuer with knowledge of who a token belongs to and a visited with a record of where they were. They go over this on that very page:

> (unless M = 1)...

> If the server uses different values for their private keys for different clients, they can de-anonymize clients at redemption time and break the unlinkability property...

> If the issuer is able to use network-level fingerprinting or other side-channels to associate a browser at redemption time with the same browser at token issuance time, privacy is lost.

This is why Mozilla rejects the proposal. We just have to trust issuers to be good and then trust that neither issuers nor websites will "accidentally" log these tokens where a data leak creates a papertrail to real-world identities.
Building SaaS needs its own Operating System
Yes. Also if you run out of issued tokens.

Microsoft could have exposed the registry as a filesystem. R: drive or \\winreg\ or whatever.

They kind of have with Powershell, but that's Powershell-specific. They could have made it part of the OS so it was available to all apps, like /proc and /sys on Linux. And then you could do all those things to them too.
For some laser models the toner cartridges are almost as expensive as a laser, hardly anyone would go for them other than business users.
Lowering the algorithmic upper bound for a core NP-complete problem is always extremely interesting. However, this is not necessarily related to improving runtime for practical implementations solving the problem in question.

Solvers for mixed integer programming (MIP) use a lot of algorithms in conjunction with loads of heuristics. Building up the library of heuristics and strategies is a crucial part of why the improvement in MIP solvers have outpaced Moores law. From https://www.math.uwaterloo.ca/~hwolkowi/henry/teaching/f16/6..., the improvements in hardware from 1990 to 2014 was 6500x. But the improvements to the software are responsible for 870000x performance improvement.

The referenced article may become another part of the puzzle in continuing performance improvements for MIP solvers, but it is not in any way a given.

We just don't have time. Incentives are elsewhere. Any time devoted to writing good code for a paper is time we cannot use to work on the next paper, (shudder) grant application, or a plethora of other things that we are either forced or incentivized to do.

I miss coding from when I was in a more junior stage of my career and could afford time for it, and I think my fellow professors mostly feel the same, I don't think many would dismiss it as trivial or odious.
The usage with of user interface design patterns which take advantage of [..] to cause compulsive use is not allowed. In context of this law user interface refers to the mechanism of a user interacting with a software, this includes any kind of user interface no matter weather which medium it uses for presenting information and allowing interactions and no matter which form it is presented at in the software.

Where [..] is a rough definition of dark patterns which there exist multiple of in CS and which you can base on factors like 1) deceptiveness, 2) intend to manipulate the users behavior, 3) how it interact with various human feedback systems etc.

The thing about law people on HN often tend to forget or complain about is that they intentionally do not need to be perfect precise scientific definitions, predicate logic, or anything like that. This means you can reasonable describe them by likely effect and weather it seems reasonable that the effect could have been intended (without bothering to actually determine intend) without needing to go into _any_ technical details outside of clearing that indeed any form of user interface is covered.
> Pretty sure dark mode is much easier on the eyes at night at least.

Only while you have a good/perfect eyesight.

It's counterintuitive but black-on-white has less perceived contrast ratio than whatever-on-black. And while you can tone down brightness and contrast of the display device for the 'day' theme, if you do that for the dark theme it just makes the text dull and harder to read.

I can show my government-issued ID to any third party without the government knowing about whom I've shown this ID to. The third party needs to trust the government and the authenticity of the ID.

Are you saying that the cancelled orders are due to a management decision/policy, and not a software bug? Or that EMR wasn't intended for managing orders and the decision to use it in such a way was wrong? Asking as someone who's mostly unfamiliar with this.

Edit - I'm trying to make sense of this thread, and it seems like this might be a reasonable summary: There's good and bad software (epic). The fact that management chooses epic instead of good software makes it a management problem.

@hyponatremia121 says that EMR software (epic) is terrible, which doesn't contradict the above. @hyponatremia121 pleading for EMR devs to focus on UX might be misplaced since their only experience is epic and not better EMR software.

@duffpkg saying that epic shouldn't be blamed here seems overreaching. If epic were good/hard to misuse this conversation wouldn't happen in the first place. But there's always well marketed terrible software, and I agree organizations that aren't able to avoid this do have organizational problems.
