Interesting dissension when checking Google: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=how%20much%20is%20a%20... :

In the US they use 45 lb bars and plates. So one plate (per side) is 135 lbs, two plates is 225 lbs, three plates is 315 lbs, four plates is 405 lbs, five is 495 lbs, six is 585, seven is 675 and so forth

also:

One plate is usually 20kg or 45lbs depending on where you live.

But:

A one-plate lift, then, is 135 pounds. Two plates is 225 pounds. Three plates is 315. Four plates is 405. Five plates is 495.

I changed the text after looking through a bunch of results.
“Make: Electronics” by Charles Platt will give you a solid understanding of practical circuit building and why we design circuits the way we do. This is a really great book, very well written.

From a programming standpoint though, get an Arduino compatible board and starter kit and go to town. You can do lots of cool electronics projects with an Arduino and some LEDs.

Hah, yeah, see my comment here:

I used to track all of this as well. Now I drive an EV and there is absolutely nothing left to track.

The only thing I get to "spreadsheet" with is the ever disappointing km/KW. Which is something I try to avoid to not trigger my range rage.
I'd say that more often than not people building this sort of stuff in-house have no idea what they're doing. So although that part of the design doesn't make much sense it's not astonishing to see it.

A PKI provides a deeply technical solution to a hard problem you probably don't have. This technology is most often deployed when somebody has a different, easy problem, but they don't like the relatively easy non-technical solution.
I did the same for bench pressing. I had to adapt as well. I now mostly use smith machines for most of my workout. As I find that they control the movement better, to keep you aligned, and actually the duration of the contraction / pump can happen for a longer time span of the motion.

I used to keep reef aquariums. I've learned that keeping the same aquarium successful at one year, is very different than success at ten years. As the probability of something catastrophic killing the tank increases with time.
Log term, I've had things like pumps failing, tanks cracking, a power grid going out for a week. Catastrophic things are almost inevitable long term. After all something 3,000 wars in recorded human history. So even war breaking out could happen.
I’m sure they do, and for all we know may Iran is part of the conspiracy. Cuba and NK are small fry and are probably excluded.

In the lore, multiple governments are involved in the conspiracy. They keep it secret because it is a race to see who can crack the alien tech the fastest.

There have been cases in the lore of other countries (Brazil and Zimbabwe i believe) having encounters or alleged down aircraft and the US has came in to investigate/recover the down object.

I don’t think there is a world government, but i do think we cooperate with each other.

Also President Clinton says he tried to get information on UFOs but they refused and gave him the runaround.
Do I understand things correctly if they claim to have cracked 31,200 passwords of which 481 were "TooBlue2022", and they then go on to think that this is a password used by multiple people? (To be more precise, this is not claimed directly for the top 10, but it is implied for the season words.)

Is it nog a bit more likely that there was some duplication in the hashes?

Or that this password is used by one prolific account creator? Or that it is the default password after signup for some blue service?

Absolutely, I’m already a long time member of the community, and I recommend everyone to look it up.
Same! The fact that it's cross platform helps a lot to ensure commands aren't missed. If I'm switching while one computer is off, the other can still send the command.
China can just build more coal-fired power plants to satisfy the increased demand for electricity (and are incentivized to, given their promise to peak emissions in 2030).

The West cannot, so the limited ramp-up will naturally focus first on the premium market.
Supply and demand, yes, and when jobs are tied to locations the demand is concentrated. So supply needs to move to where the demand is, or face a lack of demand and lower prices. If the demand is willing to disregard geography, their supply will be that much greater.

With fully-remote working, the demand isn't as concentrated, so supply need not be as concentrated either.

As someone not currently living in the Bay Area, or London, or another tech hub, I'm quite happy not to be paying the cost of living there. And honestly I don't think it's fair that people who live there should be better compensated just because they decide to live somewhere expensive. But I understand why it happens, because when companies hire specifically in a tech hub there are lots of people willing to work with them but only if their pay is higher. It's a vicious circle for employers, a virtuous circle for employees, and only sustainable for as long as productivity remains above cost. It's not built on a stable economic foundation.

I don't want to accept lower pay for the same job, which may mean that I don't work for those companies. That's the market at work :). On the other hand, if a company wants to employ folk to be physically present in London, they're not going to want to employ me. While if a company is willing to pay the same to everyone, they'll get fewer people in London and more people outside London, and they might even be the same people just dropping their commute :).

There's enough global demand for Software Engineering to drag everyone up. It is universally the case that if you pay peanuts you'll get monkeys, but paying an equal wage for equal work benefits the company and wider society and I don't particularly care if that's lower than I might get if I was willing to work in London (or the Bay Area), so long as I'm not required to work in London (or the Bay Area).

I expected to read a paper about some obscure Excel trick to manipulate stats output. Instead, this is just old-fashioned manipulation by hand or "imputation" as the paper describes it.

> In email correspondence seen by Retraction Watch and a follow-up Zoom call, Heshmati told the student he had used Excel’s autofill function to mend the data. He had marked anywhere from two to four observations before or after the missing values and dragged the selected cells down or up, depending on the case. The program then filled in the blanks. If the new numbers turned negative, Heshmati replaced them with the last positive value Excel had spit out.
Absolutely. A grandmaster will more or less instantly understand the core themes of any real position you put in front of them, and they usually can even guess with very high accuracy how the position was reached in the first place. The better the player, the more accurately they will perceive the nuances in a wider array of positions.

This process happens in much the same way as facial recognition. For most faces, we just “know” who the person is. We don’t consciously search a database of acquaintances, filtering by facial features, eye color, hairstyle, etc. We see and we recognize.

> I think the idea of product managers needs to go in favour of giving team leads more power and having them interact more with users. To me, that's ultimately what a "product manager" should do: help build the product at a technical level, but also act as a liaison between the team and its users.

Yes! In my experience product managers bring very little to the table, and the most enlightening discussions I have are when I'm allowed to talk directly to customers. Very often I find out about pain points with software (often ones which are easily and quickly fixed) by talking to customers, which I'd never heard of before through product management.
> Veganism is associated with a slew of health problems.

As compared to what?

Yes. You can’t get B12 on a vegan diet. Vegans supplement it.

Side note about B12: a B12 deficiency from a vegan diet largely comes from environmental sterilization. B12 is bacteria-produced. You could drink stream water and get your B12 “naturally”, too.
Why use SIMD if we have GPGPU? (2014)
Same here, 14 years lifting, suddenly I had to be in bed for back pain for a week. After that I spent 4 years with backpain and stopped training following the advise of various doctors. Met a guy who does power lifting, we became friends, he is also a phisio and told me to gradually go back to the gym, pain almost disappeared after 6 months. Now I am almost back to lifts I used to do 20 years ago, but I manage pain actively and avoid overdoing it. Most doctors don’t train and don’t understand how mind/body works. Sometimes pain is not linked to a “real” physical problem, then you do MRIs, talk to doctors, and they find a problem somewhere, they always do, but it could have nothing to do with the pain.
In the same theme, something to add to their list of common passwords is the What3Words database of locations

https://what3words.com

It's something like 50trillion sets of looks-random strings. That's quite a lot, but if the list could be narrowed very significantly to get some likely results by selecting locations in:

1) cities where a company is physically located

2) large capital & global cities

3) significant landmarks

I see sysadmins using the tool all the time as a temporary password generator.
Acid rain is not caused by co2 for sure. How big a deal is ocean ph falling? Wasnt it lower than now a few million years ago?
Each box is a torch module[1], which can technically encapsulate any amount of computation or contain sub-modules. The smallest boxes or leaf nodes are those that contain no sub-modules. They can still run an arbitrary number of functions depending on the node.

There's been more than a few times where I've been annoyed because a site or employer refuses to allow randomly generated passwords or allow me to copy/paste into the password field.

I firmly believe the safest option is a local password manager with randomized passwords that you maintain local backups of.

It seems to involve building a telescope with a diameter of several million kilometers. As a reminder, the circumference of the earth is about 40,000km. So several hundred times bigger than the earth.

This. Economists have had some of the most ludicrous takes on automation Ive ever seen.

There was a ball state U paper for instance that mathematically confused offshoring with automation: https://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/21/upshot/the-long-term-jobs...

There was one about 3 years ago from HSBC where they made a "creativity score" and assigned it to each job and just assumed that "low creativity" jobs would be automated: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/these-are-the-jobs-with-the-h...

Key takeaway - just 7 more years and we will no longer need construction workers!

I dont think they actually ever dig down into the nuts and bolts of the economics of automation or try to understand it on a low level and their knowledge of engineering is childlike. I think this guy in particular is imagining a certain level of literal magic going on under the hood of GPT which definitely does not exist.

My guess is that this is all an elaborate way of saying that layoffs are coming and that shareholders should just assume that it's pure profit for them because AI is magic.

Thanks for the uploads! I will check today but I believe I've got hardcopy of the datasheets/appnotes you have -- Burgess also grouped design docs into binders, so I have his originals. It's a habit I started carrying over to my own projects a number of years ago, never have to worry about something being deleted by accident, a format becoming hard to read (switched EAGLE CAD -> KiCAD 9 years ago), etc. Plus, I find it easier to read dead tree reference material when working with something on the bench!

We did a R6501Q based SBC a number of years ago, and eventually got RSC FORTH kernel and development ROMs running on it. We'd found a copy of the ROM object code in Burgess's archives and got it going from that. I want to eventually add a floppy controller to it, a friend had been working on replacing some of the floppy-based screen storage with CompactFlash backed storage, but got busy on other things.

What was the intended purpose for your R65F11 hacking?
There is no dissension. "One plate" when referencing a lift is 135 pounds, or 90 pounds on each side for a standard bar (you always assume a standard bar). One plate when referring to the plate just refers to the plate itself, which is 45 pounds.

So "hand me a plate" means give me a 45 pound plate. "Lift one plate" means 135 pounds.
Even if 100% of new cars sold were electric, it would take ~20 years to turn over the whole fleet. Once turned over, electric cars will require 20% more electricity than currently used.

IOW, additional demand is under 1% per year. We build more new natgas than that every year.
Behemoth may be a bit of a stretch, but the container is 20x the size of authelia, it's minimum recommendations are 512mb ram, and 1g of disk space. Compared to Authelia, which is using 30mb of ram and 500k disk space, yeah it's big.

Not to mention, only the admin user being configurable via environment variables isn't enough. With Authelia, I can share my homelab setup and with a couple of environment variable changes, people can have SSO integrated. There's no need to write guides or grab screenshots to help them get set up.
Mobility is pretty important for compound lifts for both good form and injury prevention.

You'll regret getting strong and moving heavy-weight with bad mobility - you get those long term injuries you can't shake because now your own musculature is pulling things out of alignment too. The wrong muscles get activated in movements to overcome mobility flaws and they only get stronger and more dominant so it's like compounding interest on a debt.
This sounds like something a scrawny/short little guy would say to compensate. Tell us you’re insecure without telling us you’re insecure. Your other comments are just as laughable. A teenage girl can dead 405? I bet you have a lot of friends :)

As someone who does actually understand this topic, no untrained person is going to start squatting at 145 or deadlift at 225 unless they want to injure themselves upfront. They would start both with an empty bar and move up slowly from there once they have the form perfect. Untrained people don’t lift actual weight. From there, most would move to a 75 pound squat and a 95-115 pound deadlift.
Good point! Thank you
How do you get to the point of observing orcas before you've noticed everything else on the surface?
Nothing Supple-Leopard specific; just being flexible.

I find that if I don't stretch frequently, squatting and deadlifting makes me tighter and tighter over time until I get injured.

You can't really get into the right positions, especially at the bottom of those lifts, if you have tight muscles from the waist down.
The goal with the matrix management is to distribute the risk. If your people manager puts you on a PIP then at least your project managers will have some ability to push back on that.

But there is no good reason for the People manager to care anything about what projects have people working on them. If they start to care about which projects are successful instead of all projects are successful then they're not a good fit for the job. And yes I have experienced that, as well as it's opposite.
Because we can change the law based on our feelings of fairness so talking about where laws came from is not irrelevant as you bluntly asserted.

You should probably still try it occasionally :).

For one of my team's services, we don't just back up the data: we then also restore it into a parallel environment. If the backup fails, the restore fails, and then the environment fails, and while our monitoring might miss some instances of spurious success, it's less likely that the whole chain will look like it's working if the actual backup is not actually working.
The main example I'd give of that is laying out elements. Best practice, at one point, was putting two inline-block divs next to each other, then it changed to 'everything flexbox,' then it changed to 'everything grid.' In my experience, really, you wouldn't lose a job for using any of the three of those, as long as you're being conscious of the limitations of each method, and, in specific cases, each is the right tool for a certain job. Best practices change in lots of languages, and paradigms shift. CSS is flexible, and has always felt a little more like art than science. I get why a lot of people don't working with it, I enjoy writing it though.

Some additional things that someone might find useful:

Keycloak supports separating token endpoints (the OAUTH2/OIDC URLS used for tokens) and the built-in login challenge pages from Keycloak's admin console and the REST API. In other words, you can offer the token endpoints and login service to the public and isolate all the admin and backend stuff to a different hostname and/or URL scheme. Have a look at the KC_HOSTNAME_ADMIN[_URL] config option(s).

Keycloak has a capability called Authorization Services, an implementation of User Managed Access (UMA2). It's opt-in and probably 99% of Keycloak users don't know it exists. It can be used to implement fine-grained authorization schemes on top of OAUTH.

> I don’t know where to draw the line on what constitutes trauma for someone else. It’s highly subjective.

Yes, and unless things have changed, this is a key component of psychiatric diagnosis: Are you able to manage your life traumas in a healthy constructive way or not? If not, you may want to learn new techniques, use medication if there’s a biological component, etc.

For a concrete example, the military’s research showed that some but not all combat veterans develop PTSD, and it seems like some are more able to manage the enormous stress. (Note that nobody goes back to their pre-combat state, all have to “deal” with the experience one way or another.)

Where a person lives is indicative of their culture. And their unwillingness to move shows deep ties to family and friends. There is a clear difference in mental/emotional makeup with those willing to relocate at the drop of a hat.

Just because these traits are not protected by US law does not mean that they should not be valued. They are also traits of human diversity and discriminating based on those traits is still discrimination, just not discrimination against US-protected classes.
Sure, I pay less than a dollar most months then in my busy months I’ll pay a max of ~$20 for my backend.

It’s event software, like for a food festival. Most of the months there is almost 0 traffic, for 1-3 months there is lower traffic as pre-sales start with random spikes when the event organizers advertise, then for 1-5 days there is high traffic peaking on a single day or two during the event.

Because the load is incredibly spiky it’s nice to let Lambda scale automatically for me. Trying to scale a server, even bare metal, manually would be a pain in the ass. Even as I run this software for multiple events it’s cheaper than $5/mo and a $5 instance wouldn’t be able to handle the load at peak.

If my lambda bill ever got higher than an average of $20/mo I might consider a bare metal or VM server but honestly I prefer not thinking about it. And the profit dwarfs the server costs, like it’s not even close. The lambda server costs, even if they were 50x, would still be minor.
It's meant for laptop or desktop at this time, but I will 100% look into adapting it for an iPad. I think the challenge might be connecting a midi device to it though.
