If the libraries are meant to be used together, you can get away with one venv. If they should be decoupled, then one venv per lib is better.

There is not much to know:

- uv python install <version> if you want a particular version of python to be installed

- uv init --vcs none [--python <version>] in each directory to initialize the python project

- uv add [--dev] to add libraries to your venv

- uv run <cmd> when you want to run a command in the venv

That's it, really. Any bonus can be learned later.

I didn't mean shifting openings every season like with DST. (although that is why it makes sense, and why it hurts the biorhythm of people)
I proposed a functionally equivalent solution to "making DST permanent" by fixing a 1 hour shifted time, without messing with the concept of noon. I know very well, that the above definition of noon is also not in line with the observations for many parts of a timezone, especially "wider" ones, yet it would feel strange to explain to a children, that...

You know the day is divided to 24 equal long hours. It is divided to two 12 hour long parts. It is based on the movement of the sun along its path on the sky, and when it is right above our head, on the so called meridian, we call that time... eleven o'clock, because... it is daylight savings time forever! :D

And I can see the justification: "reprinting/engraving all those open hours tables would cost so much to the economy!!!"

These is one of the discussions (referring to the ide proposed, and its supporters) make me very angry/upset, and disillusioned in the education.

I just wonder if people felt like me about the Julian and Gregorian calendar reforms, and if the problem is with me? :D

Honestly depends on how tight of a ship a hospital is run. I've seen plenty of Hospital systems that have their own asset tags so they can manage preventative maintenance routines and separate tags for finding the damn things. Mostly because doing that allows them to build a paper trail. I've also seen a couple hospital systems trade some very common equipment like infusion pumps though I'm not privy to the finer details of that.

Clinics get a little dicey, since they often do not have the same resources at their disposal that hospitals do, but you are unlikely to find anything much more advanced than an ECG in there.

The problems are pretty much getting the device to cooperate with the EHR (which is hard enough already) and attaching that information consistently to every patient (even John Does that paramedics drag in). And between those two, I can't really see equipment realistically being attached to every patient in a way that's consistent enough for a court to use as evidence. There's way too much room for nurses to just screw up between all of their different responsibilities.
> I'm just scared about a future where humans (say the next generation, kids 1-5 years of age right now) lack in-depth knowledge of almost everything and it's mostly AI writing low-level code, so there are no more "human experts."

Isn’t that the ultimate goal?
The show is oriented around a fictitious law enforcement technology called the Sibyl System. This system is capable of determining the intent of people, and based on that, it can predict crimes and criminal intent, allowing law enforcement to preventively take action. The kicker is, as the MC learns, that there are people who the system doesn't seem to work on.

Minor(?) plot point spoiler ahead for season one:

Later on the story the main character further learns that the system is actually a mainframe made up of living human brains connected together. Hence the relation.

Developed B2B lead generation automation tool with AI
I built Client Tracer to help businesses find potential customers without spending hours manually searching. It works in three steps:

1. Enter your website URL – The system analyzes your business based on your site’s content.

2. Define your target locations – Choose where you want to find potential customers (countries, states, or cities).

3. Get verified leads – You receive a list of businesses with verified email addresses, LinkedIn profiles, company URLs, and more.

I wanted a tool that simplifies lead generation without being spammy or relying on generic lists. It’s designed for small and mid-sized businesses that need targeted outreach.

I am now using this system for my own products. I hope it will help others as well.

Would love feedback from HN! Let me know what you think or if you have any questions.

> Web designers demand the ability to express their project's branding across every element on the page, including all user interfaces.

Truer words never spoken. Unnecessary and arrogant, but true.

> Current form and website-level UI controls do not allow for this.

While there are more advanced controls like 'combo box with search bar' that indeed have no native HTML option, there are millions of examples out there of controls on websites that could use completely vanilla HTML controls with CSS to sufficiently trumpet The Brand™ while also being reliable, well-tested, and accessible, and "Web Designers" and frontend developers don't use those either, preferring hundreds of lines of JS to (poorly) reimplement things like `<button>`, `<input type="tel">`, etc. Because they think users need The Brand shoved in their face more than they want a UI designed for the device and environment they use.

We've even come full circle now, as you see things like the iOS horizontal switch element reimplemented in JavaScript and transplanted to the Web and deployed on desktop even though `<input type="checkbox">` has always existed and has zero usability issues.

Still - I'm all for this project, as at least in areas I control like hobby projects I'll be glad to have even more reasons not to adopt bloated "UI Libraries," but I assume the piles of <div>s and <span>s and controls that only work well on the happy path* will continue forever.

* try the less sophisticated fake `<select>` replacements, when the element happens to be at the bottom of the viewport and watch the menu pop up offscreen and force you to scroll. Even ones that do this correctly add so much code bloat just to reinvent the wheel.

Yes, but this is a specific use case. In your parent comment you asked me why I don't just go do that. I said that would be illegal (because I'm not a researcher). You assume everyone is a researcher? You assume that all medical systems operate like research institutions? You assume that because your research institution is providing sub standard care by loosing and not tracking vital patient data that is needed for their quality of care that every other caregiver does the same?

The world of Healthcare is far far bigger than research....

Re: "performance", I was responding to this sentence

> I have to perform in it well enough that my manager won't be left thinking as you do in the quote.

although I admit I may have just misinterpreted this. A good manager expects honesty, not a performance. Have you spoken with your manager about what they expect from these 1:1s? Like OOP, you could just ask. Maybe you've done that.

Look, I hear you. I know exactly what you're saying. My stance is that if you rely on ad-hoc meetings, you can't reliably get these interactions. A regularly scheduled cadence provides peace of mind for everyone.

But also, that doesn't work for everyone. I've had some managers where 1:1s were not regularly scheduled, but kind of random. The key that i want to get across is that we can't just stop having these conversations, scheduled or not.

I think we can agree on that part?
I see many folks trying to build UI for multiple databases, when excellent open source solutions like DBeaver exist. Is there a reason to use this UI compared to DBeaver, through which I can interact almost all major databases?
I'm increasingly getting to this point as well. I think modern webtech is incredible in many ways, and if properly used could be pretty great but overall and for the most part we are pretty terrible at it. I've started to dread using SPAs because I know it's going to be sluggish and load megabytes of junk, and will still require frequent page reloads when clicking stuff Even though ostensibly it should not.

There's an exceptional beauty in a simple and lightweight website that is just a load and done. I've started doing more with Phoenix and Alpine for the little bits of client-side functionality required, and have been very pleased with it. The most interesting part though, is that users have also been very pleased. They can't explain why in technical terms, but they know it feels better.

> it is C with a bit of polish.

I am fast becoming a Zig zealot.

What I've discovered is that while it does regularize some of the syntax of C, the really noticeable thing about Zig is that it feels like C with all the stuff I (and everyone else) always end up building on my own built into the language: various allocators, error types, some basic safety guardrails, and so forth.

You can get clever with it if you want -- comptime is very, very powerful -- but it doesn't have strong opinions about how clever you should be. And as with C, you end up using most of the language most of the time.

I don't know if this is the actual criterion for feature inclusion and exclusion among the Zig devs, but it feels something like "Is this in C, or do C hackers regularly create this because C doesn't have it?" Allocators? Yes. Error unions? Yes. Pattern matching facilities? Not so much. ADTs? Uh, maybe really stupid ones? Generics, eh . . . sometimes people hack that together when it feels really necessary, but mostly they don't.

Something like this, it seems to me, results in features Zig has, features Zig will never have, and features that are enabled by comptime. And it's keeping the language small, elegant, and practical. I'm a big time C fan, and I love it.
Pay Attention to What's Easy Now
>Its over for scanlation groups and those that translate lightnovels.

I think it might be a tad premature to say it's over for them.

That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, one of the more recent lightnovels I've been reading (via "Slime Reader") has an extremely noticeable drop in quality when they moved to machine translations (and that's with post-translation editing).

However, the speed at which things can be translated is a huge positive, and I'm sure translation tech will get better, so it's probably just a matter of time.

The point is to limit the damage of a key leak, not eliminate it. Limiting the scope of a compromise to a single connection rather than all communications for the past and future is an improvement.

And yeah, of course we're talking about a redesign. If we were content with the status quo why would we be here?
"styling on your end" means the _user_ (not the website designer/developer) deciding how controls should be styled and that's much easier if everything uses the same controls because you only need to specify it once and don't need a library to hook all possible UI frameworks that exist.

I don't think its ludicrous.

Rust is a complex language that is safe.

C is a simple language that is unsafe.

There are always compromises and it always depends on the project. Of course importing a dependency is faster in Rust.

But the best language ever imho is Golang. Its simple and safe with the compromise being the GC.
Manage identity centrally is probably referring to using an identity management system like Okta, Microsoft Identity, or hosting your own IdP and using strong hardware 2FA.

>Certainly we consume shitloads of sugars— but for a great many of us its all that is available.

The proportion of people who don't have access to a kitchen and a grocery store is far less than the proportion of people consuming too much sugar.

The widespread popularity products with added sugar, such as soda, coffee flavored drinks, sweetened breads (donuts, etc), is by far the bigger factor in overconsumption of sugar.

I slowed it down to 1/4 speed to check -- the autonomous video is sped up 3x, but the human video seems to be 1x. I say that because generally no one moves that slowly for a physical task, not just in the "problem solving" aspect, but also in the "getting a belt to the gears" aspect. So, it appears that the robot did a better job than the human, but I believe the human only spent 1/3 of the time in the clip. After stretching the belt, it was probably put on easily, and likely the human still completed the task in 2/3 of the time of the robot.

This is me.

I trim the length to ~half to avoid sticking out, which causes them to catch and loosen. I also find that washing them first with an organic soap (Dr B) can reduce skin irritation during long-duration wear. When earplugs get wet they inflate almost comically, but after drying they shrink back down to regular size.

I use the rounded 3M EarSoft rather than the square-edge Ear Classic.[1] And actually, I just get the clone down at Harbor Fright...

Presumably this changes the attenuation somewhat (and voids the cert), but any difference isn't noticeable and it helps a lot for long-duration comfort and overall wearability.

(and yes, obviously I don't stick them in too far :D )

I've worked at several large medical device implant makers.

I've been in many many surgeries to implant them.

Often even the manufacturers have records of who has what implant.

I'm arguing because I know it to be a personal fact after working for Abott, J&J, etc.

It's a fact. They track them. I'm sure some don't, but they should.

Edited to add:

"Numerous private device registries use the UDI to monitor long-term outcomes for breast implants, cardiac pacemakers, implantable defibrillators, and other devices. However, participating physicians may not be able to view each other’s submissions, and nonparticipating physicians cannot view submissions. The data are proprietary and not publicly available."

It's a great idea, but I don't see it working long-term. At some point I suspect big tech will aggregate and centralize and kill off these little sites. They may even start implementing technology that locks them down so that you can only visit them with approved devices. Hopefully Netscape refuses to go along with it, though I do worry about their business model's long term viability.
