Yes, it is mentioned in the article, and it specifically says: "We can see a modern, obvious parallel between the Air Force Heavy Press Program and Tesla, which has created a similar revolution in car manufacturing by using large aluminum castings to replace dozens or hundreds of smaller parts."

So I didn't think what I said was out of line. Obviously, I was mistaken.
It's my understanding that our ideas of eight hours of continuous sleep window may be an artifact of the industrial revolution and electrification. Meaning it may not be ideal for us, but just the assumption that we've become accustom to in modern times. There are lots of old writing (Ben Franklin etc.) that refer to their "second sleep" ie, they sleep for a few hours, get up and do some work, and then go back to sleep for a few hours more. If anyone has more concrete information on this, I'd be interested.
MIT undergraduate admissions in the wake of the 2023 Supreme Court ruling
Storing epochs for future times that are specified in local time usually isn't enough considering that local time zones change. If you only deal in times and time zones where time zone changes are announced far enough in advance that zone changes can be processed before any events they effect are in the system, it doesn't matter. But if people schedule things years out in countries with reasonable notice, or weeks out in countries where there's a lack of notice, there's a good chance of doing things wrong.

To accomidate these future dates, you should store the localtime and you should also store the offset and/or an epoch determined at time of storage. When rules change, you should evaluate future events and for events where the calculated epoch changes, storing and using the new epoch is a sensible default --- you should ideally show the user a summary of changes, so they can adjust if they have things that were entered in local time for convenience but are actually scheduled in a different zone.

You'd think that a pretty straightforward reference check would be enough to weed these applicants out. But I suppose if you are hiring internationally without a ton of confidence in your field org, that would make it hard to do.
Obviously the vast majority of legal experts, lawmakers and those knowledgeable on the subject believe Congress has this authority. For instance, every time the minimum wage gets updated one argument against updating it you don't hear people make is that Congress doesn't have the authority to do this.

You are welcome to research the topic yourself. There are lots of books on the history of labor rights and labor struggles in the U.S. and the role courts have played in this.

But you might be right that the experts on this topic know less than you and that there is no justifiable implied power of Congress to regulate labor markets.

Neither in Swift Playgrounds, nor in any other programming development environment apps for both mobile OSes, have I found a good development experience using pen instead of keyboard.

Given how many of us "program" in paper notebooks, it is quite incredible that besides a couple of research projects done by PhD students, no one cares to actually make it more widespread in a usable way.

As I just said, the perceived issue was communist influence, which yes, included actions taken against American business interests by the Guatemalan government. And again, this communist / Soviet influence turned out to be mostly illusory and lead to all sorts of bad blowback afterward, ultimately being a bad decision IMO.

It turns out that history is complicated and a single line from a Wikipedia article doesn't quite sum up everything. You also need to factor in other ongoing issues around the world at the time, like the Korean War, the Eisenhower-sponsored coup in Iran the previous year, and so on. The Guatemala coup happened in context with those events, not solely because some US elites felt like helping US corporations.
What's your point? The other person is speeding themself up, and it works for them. What's the appropriate bar for speedups. What would be enough to satisfy you?

We effectively did tell them they can't by not allowing any vendors to ship a lower cost car without those features. This method of operation in the car industry is incredibly common and has probably saved hundreds of thousands of lives.

> I agree on paper that this is a great heuristic, but an employer would be more than happy to pay you a junior or mid compensation while extract senior level contributions from you. I see your point, though, and I agree for the most part.

In some ways, this actually makes sense to me. In my opinion, senior versus junior engineer seems like it should be about the skills and abilities of an individual, whereas one's compensation and actual title depend on a lot of environmental circumstances (company politics, for lack of a better term). While "soft skills" are an important part of a senior engineer, I'd argue that the set of soft skills useful to an individual contributor engineer doesn't necessarily overlap a ton with the soft skills needed to be able to effectively secure a promotion and/or higher compensation; navigating the corporate bureaucracy to the benefit of the team is primarily the responsibility of the manager. Finding a way to express the "level" of an engineer separately from their situation at their current company doesn't seem that crazy to me.

I guess for me the "pin the comment" thing is a workaround for a limitation in the software that we haven't had a chance to fix it—that is, there should be a way in the standard HN UI to associate multiple links with a story (including the archive links that many users post into the threads). Whatever mechanism we build for that, it will certainly be community-driven in the sense that users will be the ones submitting alternative links, and perhaps voting on their relevance somehow. This is related to karma too, of course.

That doesn't resolve your objection, which I think is legit. But I wanted to share why I do that.

There are other forms of pinned comment too, such as the "if you're going to comment in this thread, please make sure you're follwing the site guidelines" admonishment that I sometimes put into threads on inflammatory topics.

Purposeful deception by whom and for what purpose?
Former bike messenger in large eastern US cities in late 90's/early 2000's here, just started commuting by bike this summer again after having not done so since probably late 2000's. I have mostly MTB'd the last decade or so.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/07/29/upshot/traffi...

https://archive.ph/M2yod

It is a totally different world on US roads these days. There is so much dumb shit I've done on a bike in my 20's that I refuse to tell my kids about and that makes me cringe thinking how lucky I have been and after about 2 weeks of commuting this summer I have abandoned that dream and instead choose to ride where the cars can't go. I am fortunate to have access to a massive trail system outside my front door but will avoid as much vehicle interaction as I can here on out. Aside from the crazy, impatient drivers there are so many other ways you can get destroyed by a massively oversized car or truck that the distracted driver can barely see out of. Not to mention the erosion of trust that people are going to actually behave on the roads, as illustrated in the above article. Riding on city streets was always something that put my faith in other humans to the test and since I already know the answer, the safest thing one could do is to simply remove yourself from the equation.
If that bothers me I change companies.
Sure, you can cherry-pick your perspective to fit your needs.
From Reddit[1]:

Believe it or not, I work at the BLS.

You can either choose accurate numbers or timely reports, but you can't have both.

If you want accuracy, then we need to wait for the QCEW report to be released. This is quarterly, so we wont know what the employment number for January is.. until possibly late April or Early May.

Do you care what employment was 5 months ago?

Thats why there is an annual benchmarking process, where we look back at the previous 5 quarters of QCEW data and are able to reconcile the differences.

The monthly estimation is like playing the "telephone" game. Maybe you played as a child. One person whispers a phrase into the ear of the person next to them and it gets whispered down a big line of people. Once at the end everybody laughs at how different the final phrase is compared to the original phrase.

The further away we get from the benchmarked data is the same as being further away from the first time the phrase was whispered - noise WILL enter the data - and it will begin to diverge from the "universe", or the original phrase in the telephone game.

There is no conspiracy. There are literally millions of businesses who report their employment data every month. There are easily 100+ eyes on the employment data at the BLS.

It is statistically impossible that all 100 BLS employees and the millions of reporters are all in a big "help Biden" conspiracy and there isn't a single iota of evidence or whisperings of a conspiracy.

Welcome to the nature of statistics!

> On the flipside, Obsidian is incentivized to keep their customers happy

I think at this point, it's more about people not making unhappy. Development is already slowing down and focusing on fixing bugs, and the community seems to have shrunk to specific areas of interest. Which is kind of a problem IMHO, because we've already seen many add-ons becoming unusable and dying as a result of updates of the main-application.
Not true, virtually all mainstream people, i.e. celebrities, are incredibly fit.

I mean, J Lo has a six pack and has for decades. Nobody cares though.

The obese celebrities are the odd ones out, and they're typically ridiculed and hated beyond belief. This idea that the obesity epidemic can be fixed with bootstraps is just not one based in reality.

Im having a hard time taking this comment seriously when this article is on the front page

Also as far as I know historically, the Govt always publishes revisions publicly. It's just that people dont know about it and dont really care to learn.
I have run into this scenario a few times where the multi-hour processes produces an explosion of rows that no one cared to troubleshoot further. They only wanted to de-duplicate the final result.

In practice, I ended up creating a skeleton table that not only had the appropriate constraints for de-duplication. But I would also create mostly empty rows (empty except for the required column key ID fields) with the exact rows they were expecting. And then I would perform an UPDATE <skeleton> ... FROM <complicated join>. It is a hack but if there was no desire to rewrite a process that was written years ago by teams of consultants, I can only do what I can do.

The 'bug' presented above is a simple case of not understanding correctly. Larger models, models with MOE, models with truth guages, better selection functions, etc will make this better in the future.

> ...they don't. They are prediction machines. They don't "understand" anything.

Implementation detail.
Take my advice with a grain of salt, as I am a customer rather than someone running a product with customer support.

I would say this would only feel justified if the product pricing page already had clear tiers outlined for paid support. Putting a price per hour on customer support otherwise would make me feel like I am just being milked behind closer doors for more money, and non-paying customers are getting shafted. If a paid customer support tier is something you offer, imo it should be clearly outlined on publicly available pages with explicit explanation about the differences between free vs paid customer support. You suggesting it in private communications only would feel suspicious and shady to me as a customer.

However, if the customer themselves suggested to pay you extra for that personal support, that’s a different story.

Show HN: My Sidetracked Project – A Free CSV Online Viewer with Charts
Here is my side project—it's a free CSV Viewer with charts that supports viewing data in both table and chart formats. It includes features like sorting, searching, filtering, and pagination in table view.

It also supports plotting charts in bar, line, and area formats, horizontally, vertically, in grouped or stacked formats. Multiple series can be plotted at once, and any data series can be easily turned on or off. Additionally, it supports setting titles and saving charts as images.

Here is the link to the tool: https://newbeelearn.com/tools/csvonline/

Here is the link to a demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9xfGr5nd-I

Backstory: I set out to develop something else but got sidetracked and somehow ended up building this. Because this wasn't planned, development happened haphazardly based on users' and my own needs, which has resulted in some unique features that don't really belong in a CSV viewer. For example, I was experimenting with themes and ended up adding them to the tool, so now you can view CSV data with multiple different color themes and adjust borders! Not sure who would want that, though. Similarly, there is support for importing data from Google Sheets because a user wanted it.

Try it out and let me know if you like it or have any suggestions for improving it. No account is needed and it works locally without server after first loading.
> Nah. Most people barely change channels from whatever they’re watching.

They very much do if it's sportsball or political news.

Don't need 50% of the population. 5% would be more than enough to get the snowball rolling. All that's needed is to normalize that perusing scientific papers is how you learn about things, much like reading books or using Google is normalized.

The Ukranian forces are still at least 600km away from Moscow. I doubt they would be able to achieve the same speed of advance as the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wagner_Group_rebellion . The advance is still through lightly populated areas and has yet to reach the Kursk nuclear reactor. The main side effect is likely to be a few hundred thousand internal refugees and Russia starting to fill its own territory with landmines, rather than just its defensive lines in Ukraine.
There's little to no info on what v2x actually is and does. I suppose it's in research, but when the linked pdfs say it's proven to work... excuse me while I press x to doubt.
