Taxonomy is also quite a complex problem and Wikipedia has put a hell of a lot of work into that, and disambiguation.

The proposed alternative here is to basically distribute the taxonomy? Anybody who's touched microservices for even a minute will know how hilariously difficult it is to co-ordinate not just the services itself but the teams around them, including both the tech and people level ICP.
People making lots of soft contributions like mentorship / leadership tend to be the kind of well-liked personable sorts who do well on non-objective assessments, which always manage to color evaluations even when you try to make them as objective as possible.
I wonder about this too. People would probably buy through 3rd parties (Amazon, etc). I don't know if the law would restrict Amazon and other vendors to not sell non-compliant devices in Oregon.

Thing is, it is not just Oregon. Massachusetts, Colorado, New York, Minnesota, Maine and California all have right to repair laws. It is not possible for companies to remain competitive and not sell in those states.
Right. I can generate an output of tens of thousands of volts by scuffing my feet on the carpet, but I won't be replacing Hoover Dam any time soon.
So much for land of the free… we can’t even make our own genetically spliced super monster sheep(?)
> Law is actually code, just written in a language that is full of UB

Which is why legalese exists. To try to limit undefined behavior by being extremely verbose to cut out any loopholes.

Like...imagine a kid jumping on their bed. Mom says "Stop jumping on the bed!" and the kids stops. Comes back to the kid's room later, kid is jumping on the bed again, tells the kid to stop. Kid says "I'm not jumping, I'm hopping!" and goes into a diatribe about the difference between jumping and hopping, mom says to stop hopping and leaves. Goes back again later, kid is STILL jumping on the bed, and mom is angry! "You said no jumping or hopping, I'm not doing either, I'm bouncing!"

Eventually the mom has to say something like "Do not jump, hop, bounce, spring, leap, or otherwise propel yourself upwards or laterally from the bed, mattress, or any other part of furniture intended for sleeping".

The largest garage door manufacture in the US uses the Security+ and Security+ 2.0 algorithms that are rolling, but can be fairly trivially decoded to gain the serial number and rolling value of a remote. [0] This is how the flipper zero decodes remotes for playback later.

Science doesn’t really answer “why”. It’s better at “how”.
Not to be celebrated then I see.
DMCA 1201 shouldn't exist. Those who use it are DRM / copyright abusers.
I don't think you can take these terrible crimes and extend them to 10s of thousands of people's motivations. Any time you hear someone say that a city worth of people all only want to 'rape and mutilate' you should question if that is an attempt to paint one side of a conflict as inhuman.

How many people need to die before you call something genocide?
I'd thought 26, but I wasn't rounding properly. I've heard it as "thirty-four seconds before two o'clock", to obscure what time it actually refers to.
im having difficulty finding what the issue is here: they offer free help, you cant pay them => match made in heaven
Do they typically burn softly until near apogee, then put on the power until raising the orbit on the other side to their current altitude? In KSP, I can easily get an orbit on a single burn (with staging) but getting it circular obviously requires adding energy at apogee.
I wish car manufacturers would start making tiny (maybe RFID) remotes I could stick in my (minimalist) wallet. Alternatively, looking forward to a tiny Flipper-like (credit-card sized) that can achieve the same result.

Seriously, the car fob is the largest thing in my pocket after the phone (thickness-wise at least).

This may be one of the best 'best of' lists I've seen. It's diverse without feeling forced - Willa Cather and Richard Wright aren't just there for brownie points. I love the inclusion of kids/YA novels. "Charlotte's Web" shouldn't be considered great "for a kids book", it should just be considered great.

A lot of genre fiction novels are peeking their heads out of the ghetto. Sci-Fi, mystery, horror. A graphic novel which isn't my favorite entry but I appreciate the effort.
> who delivers 1/3rd the features as everyone else, but they offer such effective mentorship that their five teammates deliver features 2x faster?

I haven't really encountered this. Generally speaking people who can teach others to be much more productive like that are unsurprisingly themselves, more productive.

This fictional person would be better suited to a people management or coaching role as a individual contractor they only achieve a third of the average.

In the US, the federal reimbursements starts at $0.37 cents for paid lunches and goes up to $6.37 for certain free lunches. That's in addition to additional grants and aid that is available at the state and district level:

Maybe things are worse in the UK or food is that much cheaper - but I suspect Jamie excluding certain funding sources for the sake of drama is more likely.
We’ve been prescribing amphetamine salts since the 1950s, and Adderall specifically since the 1990s. It’s extremely well studied at this point.

Obviously we don’t give kids the doses college students might take for cramming. Stimulant sensitivity varies quite widely in the population—a dosage that might be appropriate for a particular child may make an adult feel “wired.” But there’s a lot of science showing that Adderall in appropriate doses is neither habit forming nor do people develop a resistance to it (which is what typically causes escalating usage).
0-based indexing would celebrate in August.
This was pretty common. I went to two schools that did this in the late '90s and early '00s. T'was just a different time.
> Is the Voyager's software or data stream documented anywhere? I'm a little disappointed by the high level descriptions we get back. I'd love to know what its actually sending.

This has a chapter on the Voyager computer system, it's a lot more technical than typical, but I don't think it gets to the detail of the literal programs or data stream:

https://web.archive.org/web/20190714113800/https://history.n...

I don't know why NASA took down this nice HTML version. The live link now just redirects to a scanned PDF.

I read NASA has a lot less documentation about Voyager than you'd think, and apparently they don't have a ground-based simulator or anything like that (which they have for later probes).
No-op is computer jargon for "no operation". It comes from CPUs having instructions (or commands) that do effectively nothing. Programming languages sometimes use the no-op term for functions (or procedures) that are placeholders that do nothing. These placeholder functions can be replaced later and perform some action. TL;DR: A "no-op" is something that does nothing, or as used by the parent, a paper that doesn't contribute anything.
None of these are ancient accomplishments if you like them. They're all since say 1900.
We use Playwright and the Page Object Model approach to test our applications because that approach is more maintainable for larger applications. Automated E2E testing is something all developers are expected to do, not just an "SDET" engineer or QA engineer role. While we take the POM approach, I frequently use Playwright's recorder to help me get selectors and interactions with the DOM needed to verify a captured feature. Next, I take the code generated and incorporate it into object models. Adding an automation attribute to all of your elements that are both unique and stable helps go a long way to make E2E tests enjoyable.
The efficiency demonstrated is a joke. There are better ways and more direct ways to extract power from humidity gradients[0]. In a dry environment, the maximum amount of energy extractable per unit water is fairly high, about the energy density of lead acid batteries[1]. There are even proposed large scale power plants for generating power from humidity gradients[2].

The catch? It needs fresh water and works best in hot dry areas where freshwater is at a premium. Also, the powerplant would make surrounding communities up to 100 km extremely humid. Trading freshwater for electricity is not a very attractive proposition...

They did demonstrate this during their Starship-only bellyflop/landing tests a couple of years ago. This wasn't in space, though, obviously, and wasn't after an extended coast period. So... we know they can relight them under at least some circumstances, but whether or not they can under _these_ circumstances is maybe unclear.
Critics of estimation often use a sneaky trick called the motte and bailey fallacy. They mix up two different ideas: one that's pretty reasonable and easy to defend, like "we can't know _exactly_ what's going to happen in the future," with another that's way out there, like "the future is a total mystery, so trying to learn anything about it is useless because it's all just random noise."
I think there is actually no clear definition of the difference between sociopathy and psychopathy that is agreed on
I was thinking of highlighting it too in my comment. The Dog of the South is one of the best novels that no one has heard of. Maybe The Atlantic will give it a bump
If this thing can clean my kitchen I’ll let it cheat all day.
Have we improved the failsafes when using this for regulating toxic gas venting at nuclear reactors?

In one such incident, a synchronized pendul-bird lost angular momentum, failing to press a key that regulated the gas pressure. Further analysis revealed that friction and heat losses, combined with evaporation, led to a reduction of potential energy that fell below the Y/N Press-One threshold.

In the end, an overweight employee acted irresponsibly and dangerously on his own, using his body as a cork to prevent further casualties.

The commission produced two recommendations: use a liquid with a higher vapor point; and hire three additional manager birds, and a department head with three resource birds, to track metrics.
Who exactly certifies a repair shop???

The state, the company, or some 3rd party independent org?
A couple of months ago I saw this on HN and subscribed (it was $10 per month). It is endorsed a lot but my experience was not that good. To me it seems like he keeps explaining himself instead of explaining the topic (10 minutes of a 20 minute video might just be about why he chose a specific example). I think he is simply too defensive about what people might talk about him so he tries to find what people might criticize and prepares answers for them. Don't get me wrong, I've got more than my money's worth for one month subscription and if you are interested in the topic and you can afford it, there is some good stuff in there but I just couldn't continue because those explanations became too distracting for me.
I think you've misread my comment.
Ha! I have a son who is a radiologist and what docs have to go through makes the worst sprint of your life look like a walk in the park. And they train that hard for years.

Patients can die if he messes up. The worst thing when I mess up is the product is a few days late.

I have been coding for 25 years, make half of what he does and he deserves every penny of the difference.
It should rather be on the 116th day of the year, because 365/π ≈ 116, so around 28th of March (27th in a leap year).
My experience with the Fediverse thus far also implies that one could run a copy of any such "federated wiki" that has all the same(?) content as other origins but that actually renders on mobile or without JavaScript or via the Gemini protocol or whatever else since it decouples content from presentation. In theory, I would guess that if this also went so far as to incorporate IPFS it could also share the actual storage burden, too, so there wouldn't have to be 4999 copies of the exact same pigeon text (along with 4999 cute pigeon pictures) stored on 4999 different servers plus the one where birds aren't real
If it was anything like the Spanish Civil War, lots of people just happened to live in an area that was controlled by one or another side. Those who were committed to their cause probably did their best to escape or take arms. Most were simply recruited and complied to avoid further trouble. Both my grandfathers happened to live on the side they disagreed with when hostilities started, so they had no choice.
I want people to have the freedom to build what they want on their own land. I want people to have the freedom to live where they want and how they want.
And don't forget the cost of your internet subscription, streaming drive and electricity usage.
I’d be very curious about which schools you both went to. That seems to make a large difference in career trajectory. Probably the #1 differentiator for first 5-8 years of career path. Edit: Other than country of residence.
Such drama in the title. Thing is, this is just a self service x-rated YouTube/Instagram. Feminists have been yelling that "sex work is real work, queen" and that it is "empowering to women" for a long time. Can't have it both ways.

You could equally write a hit piece about Snapchat or any number of apps. They're all just messaging apps.

I don't think it is a great idea for an 18yr old to open an onlyfans account neither as a content creator nor as a subscriber but at some point it is consenting adults swapping files and simply mirrors the offline world.

Blaming the tech aspect is deflecting responsibility.
it only makes sense once you've already read it once.
Oh, in that case, no kidding. Even Yuzu has several hundred games it doesn't support.

Yuzu also has things that just don't work well for most players. Super Mario Odyssey depends quite a bit on HD Rumble; which a Yuzu player almost certainly won't get unless they use a Switch controller. But why would an emulator user buy one and not use the Xbox controller they have lying around?

Yuzu also tends to fuzz the timing for complicated games in weird ways. I saw an emulated copy of Super Mario Bros Wonder someone was playing, and I tried a very hard level (5-out-of-5 difficulty) called Fluff-Puff Peaks Special Climb to the Beat. Super tricky (https://youtu.be/4PcBDeCKa0Q).

On my Switch, I could beat it on a few tries, consistently. On his emulated version though... I could not beat it. I tried over and over - with a Pro Controller - and could not beat it for over an hour. I pulled out my Switch version, again, a few tries, beat it. I swear Yuzu was subtly, imperceptibly screwing up the timing and physics. It wasn't a slow computer either - 13th Gen i5, RTX 3050. Not the latest thing around, but should be fine for Yuzu.
This is where it gets weird for me. I certainly can learn but school was torture. I had no problems socializing. I'm signed up for a neurological exam. I have had a personality exam with nothing jumping out.
oh. Carry on then.
Just got a cool idea! Would it be possible to implement a GH workflow that works only when there is a workflow failure in the PR, and explains what could be the issue/how to solve it?
INA (french video archive) of the news report in 1956 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_Ez2RMjwuA

Maybe they thought the flaps would help stabilize once hitting some atmosphere. In fact, that seemed to happen though not before quite a bit of plasma cooked the unshielded side.
But you can : you can do whatever horrors you want, privately. You want your own browser with specific compiled-options ? Then do it and deploy it on your private perimeter.

However, if you want to expose something publicly, then your own ideas matters less than the interests of your clients (at least, this is how I see things) : so exposing to the internet something without TLS or with a self-signed / private CA certificates is something that should be denied (those three propositions are the same, if you think about it).
The only new part of that behavior is the platform upon which it's being displayed and how more readily available it is to everyone.

If you removed Gen z/TikTok from that sentence. I'd have thought you were talking about millenials and MySpace/Facebook/Instagram. Before that I'd have thought you were talking about Gen X/Millenials and MTV. Before that News Papers, the news, and TV shows before that. It's human nature to want to flash success (even if faked), and sex has always sold. Nothing new here.
We have been forcing people and companies into compliance of some sort since the dawn of civilization.
This sounds like HomeLink and is indeed more complex. My understanding of it is that they partner with lots of companies to support their rolling/fixed codes and remotes so that they can be paired to your garage door.

I linked this in a sub comment, but the largest garage door maker in the US is Chamberlain [0] (which owns a ton of other brands) and uses known rolling code algorithms that can be decoded. [1]

There's a lot to keep in mind, and many choices to make when you're starting a new project. Here are some suggestions to help you kickstart your next Expo app.
Legally speaking, the protected class related to age in the US is 40+. Assuming that number wasn’t plucked out of the sky, I’d say that would be when you can start to worry.

As long as you’re actually competent I don’t think it would be too much of an issue. For someone who comes off as green with their skills, a company is more likely to take a gamble on someone young than someone older.
To me, Wikipedia is the canonical answer for how centralization and content moderation should be done. They have solved the hard problems as well as anyone. Federated solutions basically sidestep the real problems by rendering them completely unsolvable.

You don’t need windows to develop .NET. Windows and Mac both have full fat visual studio. Linux only has vscode, but with the proper extensions, it’s flawless.

Jetbrains rider is also cross platform.

Most of the places I worked I develop on windows or Mac, then deploy on Linux containers.

Cross platform GUI is a bit of a mess. MAUI is the modern stack for cross platform, but in their big brain Microsoftness they decided to leave Linux to the community… so they only officially support, windows, Mac, IOS, and android… I haven’t used it, but i have heard good things.

There is also Avalon.net which is a community gui framework, but I haven’t used it.

You can also use electron with a .net backend, or web view with a blazor (web assembly).

Winforms and wpf aren’t deprecated, (as far as I know, but things could’ve changed in the last year) but they are feature complete. Essentially no new major features, but I believe they support .Net 6/8… they are windows only, since they use COM heavily. You can’t beat the simplicity of winforms for small windows apps, but I would pick UWP for modern windows only development… UWP was the thing no one used, it uses XAML (similar to android development) like WPF, I believe.

If I had to create a cross platform desktop gui for a company I worked at, I would reach for blazor and WASM and use web view or something to present it in a desktop app.

For web, i would have a .net web api, then use a SPA framework for the front-end. You could use blazor, but I’ve heard mixed experiences with it, my primary worry is the startup time of web assembly vs JavaScript. Plus I haven’t done blazor in Kubernetes, and I am hesitant due to the web socket stuff…

Native AOT is becoming big in .NET (no jit or reflection) so we can finally ship decent cli tools (JIT for cli just seems excessive).
It actually happens, similarly to bird strikes or collisions with essentially any object that can float or fly into the path of a plane.

Sometimes you get the cranky old guy archetype who doesn't really get much done but is really good at making sure the kids don't make any really dumb mistakes, which is its own kind of value
If Google didn't publish the Transformers paper their engineers would have given talks about it, would have used those ideas to apply to grad school, would have switched companies and built a similar model that's just different enough not to technically be the same, and we would have reverse engineered it immediately. Simply knowing a few keywords would be enough for anyone competent to reproduce all of the work.

The space of possible models is huge. And we don't know in which direction to go to build better models. But knowing the vague general direction is all it takes. Any researcher can follow along given that knowledge. That's true of a lot of science not just ML.

No one has any secret sauce. Not even OpenAI.

Somewhat is an understatement. I haven’t heard the rehearsals on the link (thanks) but i’ve heard a lot of live stuff (then and later) and it makes the recordings sound very thin and compressed. I think part of that was just The Times, so to speak; but it’s a minor travesty one of the best runs in pop music history (prince’s controversy to lovesexy) overlapped with those production trends.
> No one out there is seriously emulating their latest consoles because they're too powerful.

Generally speaking, Sony and Microsoft's consoles are generally pretty similar to x86 gaming PCs with custom APIs. There's a little bit of oddities of shared memory between system and graphics but I'm not sure that makes that much of an architectural difference. The Xbox Series X is a 8-core Zen2 CPU with a customized RDNA2 GPU. Its not like emulating a cell processor on x86 or something.
The “industry experts” have been predicting the impending demise of China for years, to the point where I don’t consider them any more informative than a PRNG. My recommendation to folks: when it comes to “foreign adversaries”, don’t get high on your own propaganda. I see a lot of that on this site.
Yes, but surely you're doing that as you go through life rather than saving it all up for after your death.

If your children are young and you're worried about an untimely death, then it makes sense. I wrote books for my children for just this reason (but I also gave them the books while they were still young).
This article is about a woman who was raped by two guys who filmed the assault, and they then put the video on onlyfans to sell. The woman says "no" in the video itself according to her lawyer. OnlyFans says they moderate 100% of the videos posted, yet they did not catch this, and they made money on it. You cannot play the common carrier card here.
Glassdoor is so gross sometimes with its requirements.
