Unrelated, but this reminded me of this old chestnut that still makes me smile. It is from comp.lang.c FAQ, e.g. <https://www.cs.rpi.edu/courses/fall96/netprog/cfaq.html>:

The cost is $130.00 from ANSI or $162.50 from Global. Copies of
the original X3.159 (including the Rationale) are still
available at $205.00 from ANSI or $200.50 from Global. Note
that ANSI derives revenues to support its operations from the
sale of printed standards, so electronic copies are _not_
available.

The mistitled _Annotated ANSI C Standard_, with annotations by
Herbert Schildt, contains all but a few pages of ISO 9899; it is
published by Osborne/McGraw-Hill, ISBN 0-07-881952-0, and sells
in the U.S. for approximately $40. (It has been suggested that
the price differential between this work and the official
standard reflects the value of the annotations.)
Conte was French anyway, there’s no h-word for hard in french..
Other values one could test for:

- “+1” (not a valid number, according to ECMA-404 and RFC-8259)

- “+0” (also not a valid number, but trickier than “+1” because IEEE floats have “+0” and “-0”)

- “070” (not a valid number, but may get parsed as octal 56)

- “1.” (not a valid number in json)

- “.1” (not a valid number in json)

- “0E-0” (a valid number in json)

There probably are others.
STRONG disagree. I have been pranked many, many times.

People want pranking to be ok because they want to have the license to prank someone.

In my experience, it is the pranksters I have known who have been most easily fooled by scams and misinformation.

Assholes hide behind pranks believing that saying “it’s just a prank, bro” afterwards frees them from the “asshole” label, or that it somehow excuses the whole exercise. It does not. It makes them a coward for trying to hide behind the “harmless prank” label.

Also, you can’t know a prank is harmless until after it has concluded. Any number of unpredictable things can go wrong during a prank that are subtly and unpredictably harmful in ways that the prankster could never know beforehand.

The only good pranks are the ones in which the pranked, after the pranking, wishes it happened more often. Never in my life have I witnessed such a prank, and I spent years in the military: pranksters paradise.

Everything on my résumé is true, and I'm not trying to misrepresent who I am or what I did. I'm trying to emphasize the aspects of my time as a missionary that would be relevant to a potential employer. Moreover, "missionary" might mean different things to different people, so I selected terms that would more neutrally convey what I did. Note that on my blog (where I have more space; linked on my résumé) I go into greater detail about my time as a missionary.

No employer (should) care that I was a missionary—but they would be interested in the community service I rendered and the skills I learned in leadership positions. Hence, I emphasize what is relevant in this context.

That you say you find this "extremely disingenuous" makes me think that you would be off-put by service as a missionary and are annoyed that I am supposedly somehow trying to obscure that fact. Are you trying to be hostile? Your tone is definitely aggressive and you're making a lot of assumptions.
The problem is that it creates a distortionary tax. Appreciation has given people multi-million dollar homes that they pay a pittance in tax on. So they hold that property as long as possible to enjoy the low tax rates - if they move their tax bill soars since that event triggers an assessment on their new home. This takes homes off the market and drives prices even higher.

The proposition was intended to prevent appreciation from pricing people out of their homes - in other words, to decrease the volume of transactions on the real estate market. This is government interference in the market - on top of the government interfering in the construction of new homes in the first place...

If they regularly re-assessed property values while lowering the applied rate, they could collect the same amount of money overall without distorting the market.
I was attempting to solve this very problem in the Rust BigDecimal crate this weekend. Is it better to just let it crash with an out of memory error, or have a compile-time constant limit (I was thinking ~8 billion digits) and panic if any operation would exceed that limit with a more specific error-message (does that mean it's no longer arbitrary-precision?). Or keep some kind of overflow-state/nan, but then the complexity is shifted into checking for NaNs, which I've been trying to avoid.

Sounds like Haskell made the right call: put warnings in the docs and steer the user in the right direction. Keeps implementation simple and users in control.

To the point of the article, serde_json support is improving in the next version of BigDecimal, so you'll be able to decorate your BigDecimal fields and it'll parse numeric fields from the JSON source, rather than json -> f64 -> BigDecimal.

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
pub struct MyStruct {
#[serde(with = "bigdecimal::serde::json_num")]
value: BigDecimal,
}

Whether or not this is a good idea is debatable[^], but it's certainly something people have been asking for.

[^] Is every part of your system, or your users' systems, going to parse with full precision?

If you control the underlying data, I must reccomend Amazon Ion! Its text format is a strict superset of JSON, but they also maintain binary format that will round-trip data and is designed for efficient scanning. There's even prefixed annotations if you want them :)

It also specs proper decimal values, mitigating the issues presented in the OP.

Yeah you don't understand the point. Effective means it works well at the problem. Would you say chopping off an arm that is broken is an effective way of fixing a broken arm? It definitely eliminates the problem. It doesn't solve the problem effectively.

To get less traffic you need to make sure the roads are good enough to hold the amount of cars that come, or are designed in such a way that those cars don't go far or don't stop (hard). Public transport is a great way at reducing cars which may reduce traffic.

Putting a price on travel does not effectively manage traffic. It just chops traffic off. If we put a price on a bunch of stuff and stopped people enjoying the benefits of things that way, we'd also see sharp declines in whatever we wanted.... never because it is effective though.

Claiming a chopped off arm is good healthcare is a great falsehood to run with since it's easy, but it's not right. Instead of pushing that propaganda, let's actually mend the broken arm.

No, they were recording data from every user in any browser that accessed google.com and their other sites.

That behavior is normal for the majority of sites on the internet.

AFAICT, reading the article, Google is going to stop collecting data from all browsers/machines that connect to their websites and only collect data from browsers/machines that are logged in to a google account.

Further, they are deleting data saved from browser/machines that were not logged in. Users that were using incognito-mode are a subset of all users that use their sites that are not logged in. In general, a website can not distinguish between a user in incognito-mode and a user not logged in except in that, a user not logged in but using a non-incognito mode would have manually clear their cache, cookies, local storage, etc where as in incognito-mode that is done automatically when you close the last tab.

The complaint about home values is like saying "nobody drives cause there's too much traffic." There's far more housing than before, and many cities that used to be cheap new developments have become sought-after. Irvine and Glendale were cheap places that attracted immigrants and built themselves up. Every person with a home and family can afford it, otherwise they wouldn't be here. That's how I gauge it, combined with the constant complaints from people who've never set foot in CA.

If you want a real failure story, it's San Francisco. Plenty of well-to-do people are leaving it, and at best it serves as a temporary workplace for people who don't care about its future.
People forget just how good gmail was. It wasn't just a geek status thing, although getting into the beta certainly helped, it was more that every other option was absolutely inodiated with spam, and, worse still, most had very poor tooling available for managing email in general.

Back in the dark ages when I was using Yahoo, I was receiving plenty of email, and about 80% of it was spam, switched to gmail and never had that problem again.

It was, honestly, quite an undertaking to de-google myself, because I'd been at it so long.
I suppose the original attacker could give really fancy exploit strings that verify the eventual payload strongly enough to prevent someone replaying the attack from accomplishing much.
It’s at least partially because no one wants to employ actual operations specialists. Instead believing that developers and security response folks are sufficient. But good, sufficiently staffed ops teams know how to build real defense in depth across the stack, don’t just blindly trust automated scanners or installers, and proactively improve security iteratively over time.
In hindsight, weren't they basically finished by 1989?

We'd be living in a different world if they'd put all the money from the VAX 9000 into RISC CPUs instead.

I personally preferred Andrej Karpathy's CS231n taught by him and his private videos about neural nets in general and transformers in particular. He has a youtube vid where he builds one from scratch in Python!

3BlueOneBrown videos are a great complement to Karpathy's lectures to aid in visualising what is going on.

There’s some fancier stuff too like techniques that take into account where recent tokens were drawn from in the distribution and update either the top_p or the temperature so that sequences of tokens have a minimum unlikeliness. Beam search is less common with really large models because the computation is really expensive.
You get 50% losses even if you treat. You can still manage a hive with IPM and be treatment-free - management strategies are not the same as treatments (even experts list IPM strategies separate from treatments in their books/websites).
I failed to say where they say that exactly, but my takeaway from it is that, unlike Ctrl+F editors, in vi-like the search thing is actually a motion - so it can be chained with whatever command or repetition pattern you like. For example, a bit I do sometimes - visually select from the current cursor position to the first match of foo:

This is true: a lot of people called on "missions" from my faith spend their entire time doing volunteer work in an office, at a food bank, as a tour guide at historical sites, or as a musical performer.
With Atlus games you can just emulate it for switch better than it runs on the original console.
To build on this, personal cybersecurity is complex in general, and only seems 'simple' if you've been blessed to grow up around computers, the internet AND have more than a simply utilitarian interest in technology.

"OpenSSH, the most popular sshd implementation, doesn't link the liblzma library, but Debian and many other Linux distributions add a patch to link sshd to systemd, a program that loads a variety of services during the system bootup. Systemd, in turn, links to liblzma, and this allows xz Utils to exert control over sshd."

Compare with:

"Xz is an open-source compression program, as well as a library that can be used to help you write your own program that deals with compressed data. It is used by a fairly large number of other programs, one of which is OpenSSH."

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39881049

GNU's binutils links to liblzma. binutils is even more ubiquitous than OpenSSH; in most cases it's probably used in the compilation of OpenSSH, the operating systems on which sshd runs, and so on. The bad guys certainly picked a good project to potentially get deep into open source software.

... California? I'm in tech, migrating to California is always a literal and practical consideration for me. I might actually put my money where my mouth is on that one. No way I'm moving to Denmark. Californians have a higher median wage than the Denmark average, which is a big deal [0]. Reputation for being more accepting of foreigners. The weather is better from what I've heard, and there is a land war involving nuclear powers happening in Europe. And in California, statistically I;'d be fairly average. Not after getting a tech job on US wages though, maybe.

If you want to move to Denmark that is cool with me, but if I'm moving anywhere it is probably California.

[0] In hindsight I might have been wrong about this - I was comparing household income in California - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_and_territ... - to average income in Denmark - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_average_w... . Median household vs. average per capita isn't a reasonable comparison. Regardless, I wouldn't move to Denmark.

Also "X removes DRM" is an opportunity for a news cycle that could result in new sales.
I thought the same, although I probably would not have immediately gone to the Wifi transmitter.

After a couple decades of debugging various internet issues the first thing I now do is check the 'source' works (i.e. plug a laptop into the modem directly, but with a different cable). If that works I go down 'the line' until something does not work. That usually finds the culprit quite quickly (and also stops me from messing with my router config when it's an ISP issue).

In OPs scenario, the moment you realise that the office internet is working fine and it's only the home internet that is having issues, the connection between the two would have been the obvious place to look next.

That being said, it's still a fun story, and still quite 'unexpected' that rain could be the determinating factor on whether you'll have working internet or not.
California is great if you are apart of its landed gentry or a business owner.

If you're anything else, then it's not worth it.
I'm just a JS guy trying to understand the world around me and documenting what I find, not trying to be discourteous (or even courteous). I'll add the note about Python, thanks for calling it out. FWIW JS does not have a similar capability so I can't add a note there.

Mean vs median, mean Californian is prosperous because of a big concentration of wealth at the top, median Californian is desperate. California is in a lot of ways a trendsetter and a microcosm so something to look forward to on a national level in the future.
I understand why people fall for it. It's called private browsing.
Privacy used to mean seclusion from the knowledge and observation of others.

Now it means only you and a slew of corporations and government agencies from all over the planet, can know what you're doing and the data is stored in a massive database for eternity.

Seclusion from the knowledge and observation of others is still a worthwhile endeavor and I sorely miss it. It is very difficult to nurture your own mind when your body is constantly "on the record".

Take it from the airline industry: assigning blame is not a good way to improve safety. It's always a confluence of factors that leads to an accident. Change any single factor and the accident probably wouldn't occur. Moreover, humans have been proven time and again to be easily distracted, lazy, tired or simply not following the rules. The first step in achieving the goal of improved safety needs to accept that humans are flawed, yet strive to improve safety in spite of that.
Strictly my personal opinion - if you own a home in California, your life is probably better than the average Danish person due to access to better weather and better economy. Homeownership rate for CA is 55.8% - https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/CAHOWN

Also add people on rent controlled housing, who are in a similar boat, and that number would be even higher.

Ultimately, you just have to look at the immigration numbers of "the best and the brightest", who can go anywhere in the world including CA and Denmark. I was one of them and decided to come to CA over any European country. So were many of my friends and many of my European colleagues from countries with all the benefits you mentioned.
Very nice. Takes a special mind to think about tweaking the contents of ping packets :)

I felt the need to mention the difference as so many people equate beamforming with MIMO and claim that there is no difference, when in fact that difference, which Foschini discovered in 1996, is responsible for spatial multiplexing and the high WiFi data rates we enjoy. I figured the typical HN reader might be more technical and interested in the difference, or maybe not.
California has net migration outflows with a number of states such as Arizona, Texas, and Florida. Regardless of what you see this data is all readily available from the Census Bureau.

I suspect that the plot formatting syntax is very old. I remember doing stuff like that with SuperMongo (popular amongst astrophysics ca 2002), which predates e.g. MatPlotLib. It may be as old as computer controlled plotters themselves.
Denuvo claims to have a solution to that as well, but to date it hasn't actually shown up in any games. I kind of hope at least one publisher bites just because I'm curious to find out what horrors they've cooked up to make emulation difficult.

There is precedent for that kind of thing, Wii emulation matured early enough that a handful of retail games had code specifically intended to frustrate running them in Dolphin. They abused some details of the real Wiis L1/L2 cache which aren't simulated by Dolphin, and couldn't be without adding an unreasonable amount of overhead.
