I'm always baffled that these studies don't put more emphasis on resistance training, since the main issue is that your body no longer has to resist the forces of gravity on a day-to-day basis.

In theory exercises like the major compound lifts should go a long way because they stimulate almost every muscle in the body. You get a lot of sustained muscle growth out of doing big lifts even just 2-3 times of week.

Of course you're not going to be literally lifting weights in space because they're weightless! But resistance can be produced with bands, pneumatics etc.

Rowing is a really good one because you get resistance training and cardio at the same time.

But the Moon does have gravity, just less of it. Is no one considering just squatting and deadlifting huge-ass boulders? Fill a big basket with moon rocks and eventually it's gonna be heavy...

I think you will find that the company actually is quite screwed if the share price is actually at $0, even with a big pile of cash. Stock-compensated employees (Musk included) will leave, suppliers will pull their lines of credit, and people will stop buying the cars. The coffers of cash will likely be drained buying shares from annoyed shareholders, which incidentally props up the share price. That "totally fake" $0 share price will have very real impacts.

Also, the situation you just described isn't a $0 share price, it's an illiquid market. That's very different. Aside from being practically unreachable to any company with a positive enterprise value.

This isn't some sort of hypothetical libertarian fantasy land where cash is all-powerful and all other economic assets are just worthless paper that can be thrown around. Your scenario might as well say that every company is worthless because that's not cash either, and the same mass-psychosis might hit Google. Most public companies can live for about 2-3 weeks in the situation you just described, even the ones with massive cash reserves, because of how corporate finance works in the real world.
This is my thinking as well! That is why I want to avoid the big 3.

SSH Agent Forwarding does not happen by default. You need to include the -A option in your ssh command, unless maybe you've enabled it globally in your ~/.ssh/config file.

They can't get your private keys, but they could "perform operations on the keys that enable them to authenticate using the identities loaded into the agent" (quoting the man page). This would also only be possible while you are connected.

Ask HN: Using Flask as an API Gateway
Currently, I am building a micro-services type like application at my current internship.

My thought with using an api in between the ui and the backend is to provide a more scalable solution while keeping the two ends separate. However, I am not very familiar with flask and how to properly secure it.

The goal here is to have these services available in the local network. The api would be simply routing the params coming from the frontend (with the proper validation and auth) to the appropriate backend service.

The ui would be running on a docker container and sending the params to the api (running on the host), which would then invoke the appropriate service.

The question I have is: How can I make sure that the api won't be expose to the local network and only be available for the ui to talk to it?

> many start-ups begin on VPS' and only move to the cloud when scalability becomes a real issue.

This is the idea, yes. But I am hoping we can scale vertically for a long time.
The article mentions at least a dozen defective parts.

> Swampy sent his own inspectors to the factory floor, and they discovered "dozens of red-painted defective parts installed on planes."

It also mentions that employees were regularly ordered to commit felonies by managers.

This points to something seriously wrong with the company culture.

However, this is public information likely already priced into the stock. So it wouldn’t surprise me either way which direction it goes from here.
> What is the base level of variance in college applications?

Yes, none of the other questions or speculations even matter until this is sorted out. The article even mentions Columbia's applications increased 10% in the same season.

That an entire news article can be written about a simple percent change without including a confidence interval is poor reflection of our collective data literacy.
So at first I thought this was a joke. But… read to the end. It’s perhaps a strange art project, but it’s not a joke.
Outsourcing is the simplest thing that might work. There are probably better uses of your time. Good luck.
Here's the definition of treason in the US:

> Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?path=/prelim@title18/par...

Blocking or unexpectedly rug-pulling a US-funded military strike against someone that the US is sanctioning certainly counts as "aid" to an "enemy".

So, he should be looking at 5 years + a $10,000 fine or get the death penalty.

Either way, I'm hoping we won't have to deal with a presidential run from him in the future ("... obama, kenya, ... something, something...")
Yes, and it's not even like there was a prior plan to use two bombs and see what happened - the military was fully planning to continue the atomic bombings as the cores became available (the third expected to be available by late August). It was only Truman intervening that stopped it at two.

It seems, unsurprisingly, that the military didn't really see the atomic bombs as anything other than a really big bomb - it was only later that they came to be seen as something qualitatively different, and "a bomb so big it is war-ending" is really only something you can know in hindsight.
Thanks. I have only recently become aware of the Cloudfare tunnels. What's your use case for running them exactly?
The Stripper Index: An unorthodox recession measurement
Finally I get to be that guy in the comments with a weird about of relevant experience. I built the world's largest hamster wheel in 2012[1], a large rotating circular platform ~6m in diameter.

It was a fun and unique experience to run on for a short amount of time, but most people would get dizzy after a few minutes of jogging on it. The curved platform also turned out to be a bit of a tripping hazard. It was more often used as a sort of swing (could this work on the moon?).

I'm skeptical that the experience on the moon will be much better, especially since the diameter they're proposing is even smaller.

still does not change my conclusion. its a treatment, not a cure.
Classic speech synthesis is interesting, in that relatively simple approaches, produce useful results. Formant synthesis takes relatively simple sounds, and modifies them according to the various distinctions the human speech tract can make. The basic vowel quality can be modelled as two sine waves that change over time. (Nothing more complex than what's needed to generate touch tone dialing tones, basically.) Add a few types of buzzing or clicking noises before or after that for consonants, and you're halfway there. The technique predates computers; it's basically the same technique used by the original voder [1] just under computer control.

Join that with algorithms which can translate English into phonetic tokens with relatively high accuracy, and you have speech synthesis. Make the dictionary big enough, add enough finesse, and a few hundred rules about transitioning from phoneme to phoneme, and it's produces relatively understandable speech.

Part of me feels that we are losing something, moving away from these classic approaches to AI. It used to be that, to teach a machine how to speak, or translate, the designer of the system had to understand how language worked. Sometimes these models percolated back into broader thinking about language. Formant synthesis ended up being an inspiration to some ideas for how the brain recognizes phonemes. (Or maybe that worked in both directions.) It was thought, further advances would come from better theories about language, better abstractions. Deep learning has produced far better systems than the classic approach, but they also offer little in terms of understanding or simplifying.

If interest is 3 trillion per year and the government only takes in 2.5 trillion per year, the only way it can pay back it's debts is to print money.

Hence, inflation.

Well the example _is_ building a brainfuck interpreter. I guess this is the perception that comes with having minimal syntax like this, but it's probably also a functional requirement. Would recommend people read the whole thing before putting it off as a joke.
Hi, I'm the one that wrote this blog post! A lot of comments treat this project
as a joke or some form of satire, but we've spent 3 months writing this after
initially coming up with the idea because we thought nobody had created such

maybe we've been in our own heads for a little too long, but it's good that
someone gets it.

It actually is 0 or 1 in this case. You either have the power of deduction or you do not. You have either proved a theorem or you have not. If you got to a correct conclusion through incorrect means, you have incorrectly reasoned. There is no spectrum in reasoning. Perhaps a spectrum in abilities across humans but not in the logic itself.

> By the same logic, practically every human on Earth has "0 ability to reason" as their biological neural network will get confused and make mistakes.

And therein lies the problem with this whole debate. I think a huge part of the debate is conflating the fact that most humans do not reason well (I wouldn't say they cannot reason) and make mistakes means that reasoning is something fuzzy and make statements like "LLMs reason about as well as humans". Very few humans outside of mathematicians practice logic on a daily basis. Most humans get by with muscle memory and pattern recognition of previous tasks. Just because LLMs are roughly as good as humans at this behavior does not make them able to reason. I would be totally fine if people just replaced "can reason" with "are useful" within their statements so they would look more like "LLMs are as useful as humans in answering MCAT tests." To imply there is a rational actor deriving responses from first order logic is disingenuous in my opinion.

“In one paper, Cullen finds that in states with transparency laws that protect workers’ rights to discuss their compensation, there was, overall, a 2 percent decline in wages.”

This is what I thought would happen. For one thing, as an employer, I am less likely to generously compensate star performers, thus bringing the overall average wage down.
Nice explanation.

But I want to add that a common case is that in a semiconductor some "electrons" have negative (effective) mass and negative charge. It's easier to reason about them as "holes" that have positive (effective) mass and positive change. This is an algebraic trick, not hanwaving or just a methaphore. In particular it's useful in some cases becuse the band is almost full and has a lot of "electrons" but very few "holes". I'm not sure if the same trick can be aplied here, but in some areas quasi-particles with negative (effective) mass are quite common.

Stanford University IT | Stanford, CA (next to Palo Alto) or Redwood City, CA | Full-time | Three positions | ONSITE (2 positions) or HYBRID/REMOTE (1 position)

Stanford University IT (https://uit.stanford.edu) provides a large number of IT-related services. We provide contract desktop support for labs and departments. We run the campus' academic/administrative, residential, research, and related networks. We provide Stanford's analog and VoIP telephone service, along with related services (operator services, code calls, IR menus, call recording). We provide Stanford Login (SAML/OIDC), the Stanford Directory (LDAP), Active Directory, RADIUS, O365 & Google & Zoom integration, email routing (SMTP/Proofpoint), Kerberos, cloud integration, and more.

Here are 3 positions to consider:

• DevOps Engineer: This is a HYBRID or REMOTE position. If you choose to be HYBRID, you'll be based in our Redwood City campus. You'll be part of the Authentication and Collaboration (ACS) group: From the list of services I mentioned at the top, the ACS group handles everything from "Stanford Login" to "and more". You'll find a good amount of Perl (our preferred language from back in the day), but also a lot of Python and k8s (either on-prem k8s or GKE, with a bit of EKS). More info: http://phxc1b.rfer.us/STANFORDdIwQM7

• Data Center Engineer (2 positions): You'll either be based at our primary research data center in Menlo Park (on the SLAC campus), or our enterprise data center (on the Stanford campus). The Menlo Park position only focuses on our research data center, but has broader responsibilities: It includes everything from racking and cabling to maintaining and troubleshooting power distribution (415v Starline bus), UPS (spinning-mass), generators, VFDs, air handlers, chillers, PLCs, and the like. The Stanford position focuses just on facilities (not racking/cabling), but has a more facilities to care for on campus. More info: http://phxc1b.rfer.us/STANFORDOqLQM9 (Menlo Park) and http://phxc1b.rfer.us/STANFORDAneQMA (Stanford)

If you don't already live in the Bay Area, we provide a relocation incentive. Depending on where you live, we provide free transit passes. Unfortunately, if you don't commute, you will have to pay for parking for the days you're on-site (except in Menlo Park). There is some on-call around the holidays. We get a 403(b) match, good healthcare, and 30+ days off per year (holidays + vacation). All Benefits are all publicly documented at https://cardinalatwork.stanford.edu/benefits-rewards.

If you have questions, feel free to reply here or email me (the info is in my profile)!

Consider that the actual chance of TTS (clots) is about 2 per 100,000 (ten times less than your "guess") and that when these issues occur they are NOT always fatal - in a country of 20 million that all get the Astra-Z vaccine 400 people will have a TTS side affect and perhaps 2 of those might die.

Consider, also, the real world where such things were noticed early on, where Astra-Z use was downgraded, and community health centes were advised to stay alert for issues.

ie. 4 billion people did not get a vaccine with TTS issues.

See, for example: https://www.health.gov.au/our-work/covid-19-vaccines/advice-...

Just going to pile onto the Ticketmaster/Live Nation hate here.

I recently bought tickets to a Blink-182 concert in July. Tickets were advertised as about $90/ticket, so I got one for me and my wife, so the bill was $180. Then there was an extra $32 "service charge", which I didn't enjoy but also kind of expected.

The thing that really pissed me off was that there was another $3 "transaction fee" on top of the rest. I have no idea what the hell that was. I don't know why that couldn't be rolled into the "service charge", and for that matter I do not know why they couldn't just roll this into the price of the tickets.

It just feels like Ticketmaster survives primarily on false advertising and upcharges. I have no idea if there's going to be another charge later for this concert.

I guess the solution is to not go to concerts but that seems kind of depressing.
How does it work? I wasn't using computer at that era but it sounds like start running Linux kernel from MS-DOS. Linux Kernel take the control and overwrite MD-DOS from the memory. So there will be no MS-DOS to operate the sound card.
