For exactly the reasons your mentioned, i feel like F# would have been the perfect match for both MLE/ETL(spark pipeline) work and some of the deep learning/graph modelisation such as pytorch.
Saddly, even from MSFT, the investment in F# as dried up
The official criteria is based on the Beighton score, I think the official thresholds are too high so this test has a bunch of false negatives. I think people can be only mildly hypermobile, especially men, and still show up in the long covid cohorts much more often than they should. It's considered a spectrum, hypermobility spectrum disorder (HSD), where on one end you have Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome hEDS and on the other end you have generalized joint hypermobility (GJH). Even GJH shows up in Dr. Jessica Eccles Long covid research far more that they should which would be weird if such hypermobility was truly benign.

One issue I can see is a massive performance hit at the year boundary as everyone goes into 'justification' mode to ensure their jobs and projects persist. Or just dusts off the forecasts and justifications they used last year, which sort of defeats the whole point.
Yeah but you mentioned Spectre. It’s not clear if you can do a Spectre attack on an interpreter. Maybe you can, but it seems super hard and not practical.

And without Spectre, the argument for site isolation is much weaker.

Me too, but is it an addiction? Typically one would classify it as an addiction when it stops serving your interests.

Ads are the tip of the iceberg. There's a lot of content out there that doesn't look like an ad that has ulterior motives. Not all of it is nefarious, but there are way too many smart people working on such things to believe that not seeing an ad is equivalent to not being influenced by marketers.

And while they may differ on many topics, one thing marketing agrees on is that you should be engaging with as much marketing-influenced content as possible.

So returning to my "is it an addiction" question... Broadly speaking it's fairly obvious whose interests would be served, if not yours, by spending an unhealthy amount of time on HN. I'm sure it was a conversation at one time, back when someone was deciding whether or not to build HN. It serves ycombinator's interests to have us here.

I'm not saying it's necessarily problematic, especially in HN's case, but one does feel like a rat in a maze at times. You gotta wonder if there's a different way, one with fewer maze designers and more cheese.

So my point is that we could still have engaging information available without it being engineered for engagement. We could design instead with dopamine hygiene in mind. And that's a situation with less addiction potential.
When I was a kid I noticed that the adults in my life couldn't hear that CRT sound. My son bought a CRT TV with a built in VCR to use with a Nintendo 64 to get out the last frame of latency. I noticed the other day that I can still hear that sound, but I've always had sensitive hearing and I've always kept amplified sound at a low level and worn ear protection while using machinery, going to motorsports events, etc.

(In the past I have volunteered as a sound man for live music events but I have never been at a venue which I thought wasn't too loud in terms of absolute sound pressure or in terms of there being audible distortion in the amplifiers & speakers, so I haven't made a habit of it. My son won tickets to a 38 Special + Foghat show that we went to last week, I didn't mind the loudness much but it was clear to me they were pushing the sound system just a little too hard.)
> It says something about my disillusionment with most software projects

My disillusionment is I don't trust any of you. My devices have so few apps, that it could almost be mistaken for a clean install. In coding, I use very few libraries because I don't trust anyone. I don't have time to read all of the code of the dependencies. Also, by using libraries, I don't learn how to do what is needed to be done. I hate black boxes. Between bad packages including malicious/bad dependencies in an otherwise acceptable package or flat out devs pushing something that looks useful for the sole purpose of pushing bad code, it's just not worth my time.

Not sure if disillusionment is the right word though. It's close, but the lack of trust doesn't come through.
The closes thing to a conclusion I saw is

If you do it on your own, it’s like living off-grid and driving your off-road vehicle at whatever speed you like. Go right ahead, nobody is stopping you.

The problem with crypto is where it interacts with the financial system. The exchanges are hives of scum and villainy. Criminals use it for money laundering and ransomware. That’s the part where you do need to follow the existing rules and laws, whether you like them or not.
In the same way digging ditches and then filling them up isn't meaningful. Creating things that last for a year or two, creating food that leaves you hungry, drinks that leave you thirsty. Designing things just to create work instead of value.
That's exactly what happens. And even if you unfollow most feeds, it's normal to not be interested in most articles (e.g. HN feed alone).

Nevertheless, I think the sweet spot is having a curated list of feeds and then filtering a bit the posts. I've been pretty happy with a side project that does just that: filtering posts based on past reads using AI. Takes out half of the work and makes your feed more enjoyable.

Great illumination of the problem with the definition of respect.

I also was explained a definition of respect that forever changed my relationship to the word and it’s lived embodiment.

The Latin meaning of the word: Re-Spect - to see again. That’s it.

The second definition you gave- to treat someone like a human is way too low a bar. Because one might think that humans are generally POS. Also a person who has a problem with self-respect, does not lack seeing themselves as human per se.

If we elevate it a bit - from treating someone as human, to something like, treating someone with basic dignity, i think that’s an improvement. However it’s still basically passive and allows room for a lot of laziness and prejudice.

This is why i found the Latin meaning so helpful. Give that person a 2nd look. With each interaction try to see them again and again.

It’s much more active, it improves others in our eyes over time (usually, but not always). And I find it improves me over time, as i continue to remember to use my sight.

This definition helped me capture the more elevated aspect of respect, the one i felt the word already connotes, but had such a vague definition. A high virtue indeed.
Is that really worse than trusting blindly the code of a human, about which "everyone knows about" the bugs that humans write as well.
More importantly, TeX resulted in the concept of "Literate Programming" as exemplified by the books:

_TeX: The Program_

and

_METAFONT: The Program_

I've found that LP allows me to be successful working on projects which are more complex and of greater length than other tools allow me to --- worst case is I find myself reading through a nicely typeset hyperlinked PDF until I understand the code I need to modify and am then able to control/command click to go right to it in the editor.

I've been trying to put together a list of Literate Programs published as books:

>Because time off is worth a lot.

It is, but someone still has to work to keep society going in those "time off days". Doctors can't treat the same amount of patients in 4 days as in 5. Teachers can't squeeze the curriculum in 4 days. Customer support can't squeeze everyone in 4 days. Etc.

So how will you increase the number of doctors and other staff to work in the days the existing staff are off?

You can't just magic more workers out of thin air, especially now when we're already in a labor shortage in many fields like healthcare with everyone already working 5 days/week and with fertility declining in the west.
We dropped Amazon Prime earlier this year, in part because of the introduction of ads, and we haven't missed it. We're now talking about moving to the model where you stream one or two providers at a time, then switch. Between the ads and garbage content, it's just increasingly hard to justify subscribing to a half dozen services just to have options.

I should add we're not doing this because we need to cut costs.

Show HN: Thread – AI-powered Jupyter Notebook built using React
Hey HN, we're building Thread (https://thread.dev/) an open-source Jupyter Notebook that has a bunch of AI features built in. The easiest way to think of Thread is if the chat interface of OpenAI code interpreter was fused into a Jupyter Notebook development environment where you could still edit code or re-run cells. To check it out, you can see a video demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jq1_eoO6w-c

We initially got the idea when building Vizly (https://vizly.fyi/) a tool that lets non-technical users ask questions from their data. While Vizly is powerful at performing data transformations, as engineers, we often felt that natural language didn't give us enough freedom to edit the code that was generated or to explore the data further for ourselves. That is what gave us the inspiration to start Thread.

We made Thread a pip package (`pip install thread-dev`) because we wanted to make Thread as easily accessible as possible. While there are a lot of notebooks that improve on the notebook development experience, they are often cloud hosted tools that are hard to access as an individual contributor unless your company has signed an enterprise agreement.

With Thread, we are hoping to bring the power of LLMs to the local notebook development environment while blending the editing experience that you can get in a cloud hosted notebook. We have many ideas on the roadmap but instead of building in a vacuum (which we have made the mistake of before) our hope was to get some initial feedback to see if others are as interested in a tool like this as we are.

Would love to hear your feedback and see what you think!
They're a better Trotskyite paper than any of the ones written by members of the 4th international. Some of those papers couldn't write an article like this without dropping in some note to the effect that NATO provoked Russia into invading Ukraine or that Lenin had predicted it all 100 years ago, but Jacobin doesn't do that.

You are just above average social, or maybe even a bit extroverted and as you mention you need to vent out but not have company to do so. Ie I am the opposite, no need to upload all the daily crap unto others, I deal with it on my own ie via long evening/forest walks, workouts and various sports, smoking weed sometimes (and mixing with long walks).

Its tiring to be mostly on receiving end, either there is a lot of negative stuff being unloaded unto you, or people are hopeless in some basic situations and can't speak up or generally help themselves or similar, and there is very little I can actually help with.

What is important for long term stable relationships is to have them balanced, give what you take in similar if not same ways, and not be a semi-constant source of negativity/complaints, everybody has their limit. The shit I've been told from some of my close folks, without ever asking or wanting to hear that... I would never bother them with such crap, its often borderline rude, and usually there is 0 I can do just listen or stop the whole circus.
Okay, and next month the Argentine president could impose a withdrawal limit or complete block on accessing crypto exchanges (which most people will be unable to circumvent), apply strict individual and business criminal penalties on bypassing these and trading crypto P2P, and even set up honeypots to arrest those trying to trade and cash out crypto in-person.

The idea that an overreaching authoritarian government will just sit there scratching their heads and admit defeat to a decentralized database if they truly perceived crypto as a threat is hilarious.
These were the observations that made the most difference in my life too. I also only learned and internalized them after my child was born.

It's hard to do apples to apples comparison, because you'd need two excellent, committed teams working on this.

I'm a FreeBSD supporter, but I'm sure you could get things to work in Linux too. I haven't seen any posts like 'yeah, we got 800 gbps out of our Linux CDN boxes too', but I don't see a lot of posts about CDN boxes at all.

As someone else downthread wrote, using FreeBSD gives a lot of control, and IMHO provides a much more stable base to work with.

Where I've worked, we didn't follow -CURRENT, and tended to avoid .0 releases, but it was rare to see breakage across upgrades and it was typically easy to track down what changed because there usually wasn't a lot of changes in the suspect system. That's not really been my experience with Linux.

A small community probably helps get their changes upstreamed regularly too.
I'm glad you're coping with a very difficult situation. Jumping on a bit of a tangent I'm fascinated how you swap between 'I' and 'You' in your comment and how it could read differently:

"Be gentle with yourself. Know that you can be scared, frustrated, or angry but don't have to let those emotions define you".

could become:

"I'm gently with myself. I know that I can be scared, frustrated, or angry but I don't let those emotions define me".

The difference is interesting to me.

> Argentina may have serious monetary problems, but does the USD?

It is a possibility. The US's debt payments are a similar order of magnitude to their military spending and there is not really a scenario where the principle will get paid back in real terms. And the US's net international investment position is eyewatering. It isn't obvious that the money was well spent in the negative interest rate years, although maybe there has been a lot of capital formation in the US that flew under my radar it is early days yet of positive interest rates.

We're also probing at a big war and there are real questions over what the US will do to USD holdings in the event that risk materialises. We all see what is happening to Russia's assets.

It isn't particularly obvious that the USD is a safer currency in the abstract than the Argentine Peso. Certainly as a foreigner it looks a bit risky. It might also become unreliable for internal use, the debt situation or a political blow up are both ways it could go bad. The situation is something of a spectacle.
“ Literally no human, corporation, or government could have stopped what I had just done.”

“ A world where no government or politician can change the rules one random day. A world where financial innovation moves at the pace of programmers, not legislators.”
That's because it's harder to see the forest for the trees when you're out in the woods. Just like the author of this blog post, users in Argentina and Nigeria aren't going to stop and think about the far-reaching problems with crypto if that crypto is helping them with their day-to-day lives.

> I guess none of that has ever bothered me? I grew up in the 90s with physical media, and many of those games are now unplayable too.

Unplayable because you don't have the machines to execute them (or because you didn't take care to copy your media that got damaged), not unplayable because the companies subsequently revoked your access to them. Those are... pretty darn different things. It's like saying "my groceries spoiled" is the same as "the supermarket came back and seized my groceries" just because they have the same end result.

Lots of countries did. If your bar for respectable is "I don't care about it"... that's not really a question to pose to the rest of the world.

This is a much bigger conversation than we can have in this box, but suffice it to say lots of people don't buy this kind of excuse.

This hurts to read. At my previous employer I more or less carried the technical part of the organization, but also had strong opinions about high level strategy and equity (in terms of pay distribution across staff). In my defense, it was an NGO where I was working well below market rates and the opinions I pushed came from caring a lot about the mission, but it definitely led to a lot of conflict.

I think it's an interesting question, how organizations should deal with this. I think my previous employer actually dealt with it quite well - for the issues I cared about I _was_ given the opportunity to express my opinions and also share them with the people who were in the positions for making decisions around these issues. I was generally listened to patiently and also got (sometimes unsatisfying) explanations for why the actual course of action was different. I was _not_ given the authority to make these decisions or push these issues (the ones outside my area of expertise) through. I ended up leaving the organization in quite a bit of frustration, which I think was probably unavoidable, but I learned a ton from this episode, and we're otherwise still on good terms (I help out with little things now and then).

> I believe the correct approach is to look at it from the perspective of the object that you in car A are striking.

The most convenient reference frame for colliding objects is the combined center of mass of those objects. It isn't affected by the collision, and for perfectly inelastic collisions the objects will come to rest with respect to that frame. This makes the math a lot simpler that working in some other frame.
