I have a dog that literally only eats grass when he needs to retch something up. He'll go to the back door and whine and gag, whine and gag. If we're upstairs, he'll come fetch me. I don't stop him, either. I've learned that lesson. He's a mutt breed, we think half Yorkshire Terrier and half Miniature Schnauzer, for whatever that's worth. Our full-breed Rat Terrier did no such thing in 17 years of life but the mutt has been doing it since we got him nearly 15 years ago!
You don't have to fear it. It's already here. I can't store my electronic government id on my Yubikey since it's not an approved device. So unless I buy a certain hardware token, my only option is to entrust my private key to a privately-owned certificate authority named A-Trust that forgot to renew their own root certificate once, taking out all government websites and services, and blamed an influx of users on a DDoS attack, in a regulatory environment where companies and even the government itself sue security researchers for disclosing security vulnerabilities responsibly, combined with tech illiterate journalists that buy whatever press statement they publish without verifying anything. Yeah uh, how about no? I trust my Yubikey more than you. I in fact lack so much trust in A-Trust that I assume my electronic government id is compromised, and that I among a few others call them A minus Trust, not A Trust.
Yeah, I am aware of the differences. I equivocated about specifying examples, because I worried someone would try to explain them, rather than engage with my overall point.

My overall point is two-fold. (1) There is nothing in the function name that would indicate the difference between, say, (eq) and (eql) and (equal), any more than you could guess what the difference between (colorise), (clrise) and (clrs) would be on sight. Lisp seems to love doing this. To me, it just seems like an obvious source of very painful bugs (works as expected 99% of the time and then it doesn't).

(2) In many (most?) day-to-day cases, the distinction isn't material, and for those the ecosystem is going to end up preferring one more than the others (which may change over time - hence, 'in vogue'). The references I've seen tend to suggest sticking to (eq) and (equal), for instance, and avoiding (eql) unless you have specific need of it.

For a language that is reputed to be elegant and beautiful, this - well, isn't that. Hence my initial surprise.

Here is how to use the calculator, because you're still messing up the math a bit. We'll assume a 1% chance of death, and a population of 32.

---

Probability = 0.01

Number of Trials = 32

Number of Successes = 2

Now you look at cumulative probability (P X>=2) = 4%

---

You are correct that if bump the chances up to an annual 5.2% of death, then finally it starts becoming reasonably probable. So, for contrast, whistle blowers at Boeing seem to have approximately the same survival rate as somebody diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer.

If the track is enclosed in a smooth symmetric enclosure, either a circle or flat dome, the air within the enclosure will spin along with the train or other tracked constructions, instead of impeding them.

I imagine some texturing on the inside of the enclosure could create small scale surface turbulence that even reduces the minimal friction there.

Why is it a bizarre stance? Take the word "valid" out of your comment and you will see the value of at least understanding why extremist groups pop up. They may not be valid, but understanding their origins, roots, grievances, etc. allows us to formulate potential interventions that could take place before having to deal with armed criminals in a life-threatening manner.
It doesn't negate, innately, that the action is literally compelling the defendant to incriminate himself with his own actions/words, not his bio-metrics.

If the crux is literally that his compulsion is moot to the establishment of the evidence, then it both begs the question you had mentioned - why is it needed - and raises the obvious comparison of a murderer who has confessed to his crimes being compelled to divulge the location of a body.

In that comparative example, the location could contain more incriminating evidence.

So I guess make your passwords incriminating or make sure you have multiple domains/spans of crimes all unrelated in the same virtual place.

I would generally agree with that statement. However in this case I disagree.

Why? Because I think carbon capture sells the idea that with the right technology we could just continue doing what we are doing. It is the equivalent of an obese person stuffing food in their mouth and telling you fat can always be surgically removed. Yeah sure it can, to some degree, but you do see how that doesn't fix the problem? Do you see how them saying that might in fact be worse than them saying nothing?

So in my mind carbon capture is something that we should work on if we are capable of the realization that the role it will play in fixing the problem is utterly insignificant. If you think it is the solution, carbon capture sells a false hope and prolongs the struggle — and at least where I am from proponents of carbon capture are the people who definitely don't want to reduce their CO2 output.

Pointing at some future technology instead of doing something now is actively harmful. And I am not sure the actual positive effect of such technology would outweigh the negative effect it has as an excuse to justify not doing what is necessary now.

Are you joking? You are asking average people to commit to 90-120 of c-v exercise per day? So, 7 days per week? This stuff is nonsense. Most people would quit after a week. I guess 99% of people could not sustain this for more than 3 months.

It's not though.

Every one of the top schools in the US has some amount of cheating done by its students. The students still tend to have an outsized degree of success and innovation in the world.

Use something simple like linktree and go way deeper on your blogposts if you want to use that. When I'm in a hiring manager role, I'm looking for works that express depth and competency.

Really, if I can find say, 100 or so lines of competently written code, I'm interested. As far as what that means, take https://js1k.com/ and click on any of them and go to the demo details. I just picked a random one: https://js1k.com/2019-x/details/4167 ... I see that code and I think "well this person seems to know what they're doing, it's worth a phone call".

Or let's take https://allrgb.com/ ... any one of them take pretty decent understanding and coding to do (here's a random one: https://allrgb.com/random-triangles) Make one, do a writeup on it, release the code and present that.

Another tactic: Any large software project. Let's take Libreoffice. Bugs from the last 7 days: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/buglist.cgi?chfield=%5BB... ... or the 1000 open tickets on wireshark: https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/issues start fixing them. There's plenty of work to do.

Different birds of the same species can have different outcomes I have seen, anecdotally. Two cockatoos, one thinks a plush toy cockatoo is a bird and another correctly identifies it as a toy.

Another observation I have had is bird on a screen are also hit and miss, but sounds are a bit more consistently responded to. But bird are temperamental full stop, and barely respond the same way consistently, so it's tough to say if they are not responding because they don't think it's real, or if they are just not interested.
I had a similar cold call years ago. It may have been my bank or possibly a utility, and the call was related to fraud of some sort.

When I asked to call them back to verify, they said (from memory):

- Call us back on the main line, you can find it on website.

- Press option 9

- Enter the five-digit code: 51762

And got transferred straight back to the caller.

You don’t seem to understand basic economics. When you get on a bus and pay for your ticket, is the rest of the ride a free ride?

VCs are running a business too. Most VCs fail to return the capital to their LPs. That’s right, then spend 10 years of their life working with startups and have nothing at the end. They take RISK and they try to DERISK their investment by helping the portfolio company.

There’s also a LOT of stories where a VC invests a LOT of money only for the company to get recapped. The founders are given (some say rewarded) with new equity with the VC is wiped out. In many cases a founder will exit handsomely and the early VCs who came in end up with nothing. That’s the risk.

VC is simple but it’s not easy.

> Sorry. But I'm an avid gym-goer and even I have to remind myself of the positive it's doing. We're not all the same.

Maybe you're one of the people that for whatever reason exercise does nothing to - though I highly doubt it. I'm not sure what training you do exactly but to reap most of the benefits the workout should include moderate cardio work. I don't think going to lift weights for a 40-60 minutes with plenty of rest between sets will cut it. Running for 45+ minutes is what most people should aim for, of course beginners will do less.

Anyway I agree with you - for most folks the connection doesn't exist, perhaps its time this changed.

Can you explain what you mean? I'm confused about the "might not need the lambda". Thanks!

In my case we allow up to 10mb file upload. For example just testing something right now from my iPhone I selected a 3.7mb image which was uploaded and resized to the "frame" it will go into in the UI and its now 288kb in S3. We have a few "frame" sizes which are consistent throughout our application. Now, my cloudfront is serving 288kb file instead of 3.7mb, which is good for me because I want to avoid the bandwidth costs and users honestly can't tell the difference, and then also we aren't a photo gallery app.

So in my case I need the lambda to resize the image to our "frame" sizes. I wonder if I didn't explain right. I'm ESL so just want to make sure since I'm confused about the your last sentence.

I looked around and ended up on your resume, the older one with work experience listed. It seems like you ought to be able to find something based on that history alone, even without digging into the newer stuff.

I don't think your current website and current resume show off your employment history at all, and if you're applying to places with the new ultra minimalist resume I could see that being an issue. It might also be worthwhile to update your links and listed emails on your resume, website, and github so that they all point to your current website and contact info.

My friends and I have been part of the layoffs - SWE and SRE work. Everyone is job hunting and hiring seems to be way down. I know my most recent company had a hiring freeze for the last year and a half across most business units, but they still had job postings the entire time. That might be very common. And it seems like most places want the exact right applicant for their tech stack. Unfortunately this is the nature of remote work - there probably is someone with exactly the right expertise applying.

It's rough out there, but keep at it. Good luck!

The problem with the VO2max metric is that there is no measurement of it outside of a few lab methods, certainly not in a fitness tracker, so they're estimating. It makes more sense to look at the other metrics that it CAN easily measure, like heart rate recovery to get a quantifiable and repeatable measurement. I agree for amateurs accuracy is not necessary, but repeatability is. If I weigh myself today and the scale says 10 lbs below my actual weight, and tomorrow it's 10lbs above my actual weight that's a problem. If it's always 10lbs below that's fine, the delta will be correct. You can't say that for VO2max you get out of a fitness tracker.

My watch says my VO2max is 36.8 which would put me very strongly in the long term negative health effects bucket and well below average. Meanwhile Garmin claims it's 51 which would put me in the top 15% of my age group. It can't be both. They're just made up estimations, and following them blindly could be dangerous. What if someone's is going up even though they're not actually doing a healthy amount of exercise? Or someone's is going down or maintaining even though they are, causing them to fall into negative thought or behavioral patterns? Better to stick with some other data points
Ah shit, I was That Guy on the internet, sorry. I guess it happens to everyone eventually.
Indeed dogs have been genetically modified over millennia to the point many wouldn't even be able to survive in the wild, whether you think that justifies our actions is up to you.

In addition the chances they want to escape are smaller than for birds. I looked it up and found this source https://www.petlink.net/blog/chance-dogs-coming-back-run-awa... that says "The unfortunate reality is that 15% of dogs across the United States go missing.". For context that's not 15% of dogs want to leave and do so. What's the percentage of dogs that had the chance to leave? Let's say 50%, which would imply that given the chance 1 in 3 dogs left. Albeit not all of the because they disliked their home/prison.

Looking at the language used in that article exposes some mental gymnastics. They simultaneously state that dogs could find their way back if they wanted and compare it to loosing a child! No, the dog is not a child, and if the reasons you provide why they "go missing" are "Fear from loud noises, Easy escape routes, Boredom and Prey drive" I find it hard to ignore that these are adult conscious beings that may not want to live with us, and only do so when given no alternative.

> 2200 MET-minutes/week is about 3 hours of 8mph running per week

Wow, that is a lot of exercise for the average person. That would be 30 mins per day, six days a week. Again, I don't think 99% of people can sustain this for a more than a few months.
Reflecting upon this a bit more, perhaps something that helps in our parts of the world is that restaurants are not segmented by price point. For instance, at lunch time everyone goes to the restaurants close by, but apprentices and street workers take the meal of the day, while the office workers order from the menu.

So chain restaurants are really something that typically occur only in the same sorts of areas as big box stores, aiming at a similar demographic.
It’s a fairly common practice to have a localized geodetic datum defined for a country. WGS84 isn’t necessarily sufficiently accurate for all purposes, continental plates drift, the ellipsoid can be adjusted to local circumstances and so forth. When you want to compare very precise measurements over time, WGS84 is too imprecise.

Most of course avoid obfuscating their own maps, it seems like that is a result of 2002 legislation coming out of Beijing. There’s a long history of doing this, civilian Soviet maps often simply omitted a grid.

While mapping an adversary is comparatively trivial and cheap today, this sort of thinking wasn’t entirely unreasonable back during the cold war, when maps truly were hard to develop from afar (there’s a brilliant and beautiful book on this subject called “The Red Atlas”). There’s a saying that generals often fight the last war, maybe that’s why China chose to obfuscate their maps well into the satellite and GPS era.
Carbon capture is obviously inconsequential; but it would seem that even emissions reduction is a useless endeavor, wouldn't it? All extracted carbon will be eventually burned. Burning it sooner or later it's not such a big deal. What we need to do, for a start, is to close the damn oil wells! Just stop unearthing millions of years worth of captured carbon and putting them back into the biosphere.
