I used it to create some art. I created image layers using p5.js and combined those 5 images using the previous version. I found the layering system pretty obvious, with the opacity and merging very straight forward. I used to be pretty ok at photoshop.. before the subscription days. The export vs save as was a little confusing but the whole process wasn’t hard.

Those images got into an exhibition so I’m pretty happy.

Photoshop literally has whole training companies and conferences on how to use the software. I ended up at a photoshop world conference. When I was on Mac I’d use pixelmator for quick crops and edits (or even the preview). That’s easier, but these programs are very powerful and you need a little bit to learn them.
Even better, sunscreen (I just use old, expired ones). Don’t know why, but it does a great job.

The vast majority of sites operate without a CSP (only 7% of Alexa’s top 1 million sites have a valid CSP circa 2020, and in the long tail it's much, much less). It's a niche thing and the type of use you do at cloudflare can be considered bleeding edge in practice by comparing to the rest of the web. For most sites on the web CSP is more of a burden than a benefit.

The crashing and freezing of many browsers only affects your challenge system.

I've always ignored them. They can only measure context that's important to computers, or abstractions of importance.

Humans have different wants and needs than what Google can measure.

A great example of this: in order to ship entire megabytes of JavaScript to the browser, rather than just, you know, NOT do that, we instead trick the browser into thinking we got our "time to first byte" or "first contentful paint" immediately by putting up some flashing gradient of non-content, while the megabytes of JavaScript figure out what to actually paint. So while the user is waiting actual multiple seconds for each page load to be useful, Web Vitals is handing out 100's left and right because it can only see what is important to the computer, not the user.
That and the complete lack of resources and hospitable terrain. It drives me crazy when space gets compared to the new world. But yeah the isolation alone is no joke.

We still operate hundreds of legacy (2nd and 3rd gen) systems with Alpha hosts running OpenVMS in airgapped prod environments across the country.

The portfolio of apps we developed/maintain for these legacy systems have all been ported to their modern replacement systems years ago, but we still regularly release updates targeting legacy that maintain feature parity with modern releases.
Not necessarily. Depends on the wavelength.

This works because the solvent base for the ink is alcohol, so a much simpler method that doesn't waste ink is to use a small spray bottle of isopropyl alcohol. Ideally 99/100%, if you can get it. (Try eBay.)

Gimp is a term used to mock people that can't walk. It's not a medical term, it's strictly a pejorative like the n-word.

Gimp is also a term for someone who gets pegged up the ass while wearing a rubber suit.

Assuming it works equally well, people like what they're used to. On top of that programming in the AST requires you to think about things a bit differently which only widens the gulf.

That said mathematical code is one of the few cases where I don't like s-exp as much. Having easy access to "real" macros tends to make up for it, but I just don't find infix plus functional very convenient when number crunching. It's likely a skill issue on my part but that doesn't change the end result.
> But I'm guessing most people would rather go to the dentist then sort through photos and decide the best place to put them, both folders and storage.

Most people tend to love going through their old photos, thinking of the people and places depicted, and sorting them. For an extremely long time this was entirely the norm and it took place mostly using large cumbersome physical books where meta data was recorded by hand by writing on the back of the photo.

It's become much easier now that files are digital, only slightly offset by the fact that digital has enabled us to take many more photos than in the past. What I see more often are people who have no idea when the photos on their phones are actually stored at all (what's a file system?), let alone how to copy them off their phone and onto something more appropriate besides resorting to something like emailing photos to themselves which has all the problems of adding and successfully transferring large file attachments.

It's a chore because companies really don't want people to have access to their own files unless it's on the company's terms and using their cloud servers.

Why hasn't Java been tainted the same since Oracle bought Sun and now 100% controls Java's development? I am continuously surprised to see they continue to make major investments in the platform. Project Valhalla was started in 2014 and is still going strong. I keep waiting for Oracle to cancel all major Java improvements, then milk the remaining corpse.
Thank you, and well put.

>... and I dare say that others here on HN would have downvoted for that alone regardless of which side of any specific debate you chose to argue.

That's fair. In fact, I used to be that person. I will say in recent years it's become far more common to see latent mass downvotes, but it's probably just some dynamic I'm not properly accounting for, perhaps latent attention on a submission tends to be the very type of user you just described.

On the other hand, bot overlords attempting to shape the narrative probably realized a long time ago that the very early and very late phases are the best time to do said shaping. I'm just confused since this time I didn't even say nothin' unflattering about the PLA.

>It's not just 'Racists' or those with an opposing view that will downvote you here on HN, you will also get judged on the strength and presentation of your comment as if it were part of a debate club exchange.

I know you're just the messenger with regard to this point, but what irks me is that while this style is time-tested for tech topics and sadly works, for real-world topics—at times—it comes off as a grotesque form of whataboutism that can feel utterly insensitive if not detached from reality.

A great example is the recent news with USAID. No submission about this on HN made it to triple digit upvotes. The stakes in terms of human suffering are a few million dead people, per year. The dude who shuttered the agency was a product of the tech community, and our little debate club format here can't even handle discussing that news. It's shameful.
The Role of Brown Fat and Circadian Rhythms
I feel like we've never had Weimar-style inflation in a country with the levels of consumer debt the US has.

Much of the population is paycheque-to-paycheque, so if we spent a year or two hyperinflating the currency, they might actually see a net win. They didn't have significant savings to go poof, but their $30k in credit cards, $50k car notes, $200k student loans, and $750k mortgages suddenly look trifling when you're shipping packages by stuffing them with crumpled million-dollar notes.

When the crisis ends, and we get the equivalent of the Rentenmark, they emerge with blank balance sheets and clean title on the assets they acquired before the crisis. It would be effectively a backdoor debt jubilee.

I can't imagine the domestic financial sector being too enthused.
Apple TV definitely offers the best “streaming portal” experience. But it’s still kind of janky. For one thing, different streaming apps implement playback controls totally differently - why did Apple not impose a standard interface?? And for another thing, the remote control is just senselessly terrible.
IMO this used to even be the value proposition for blue collar trade service companies.
They had expertise, they had advanced tools and equipment, they had some economy of scale buying in bulk... So they would give you prices for things that even a DIYer would look at and go "well geez, that price is so fair I don't even think I could compete doing it myself. Where do I sign??"

Now that is totally gone, partially I think to tradesman/small business owner social media influencers, and prices are set as high as the market will bear. Sure, they're so high way fewer people are installing new sliding doors, but hey when they find one they make an extra $3k in 7 hours. Why do three jobs a day and make $2k profit when you can wait for the wealthier or more desperate person and make it all at once and go home?
Beware Trivial Inconveniences (2009)
Oh right. Thanks for explaining. There’s more packed into your comment than I expected.
The problem, like most things with GNU itself, is that large dreams are thought of but never actualized. So, just like using the Linux Kernel vs Hurd, the GNOME project had to plugin what was available; and that was GTK.

> It doesn't prove that your specification is bug-free & vulnerability-free.

Mathematically prove might be a little strong, but if the implementation agrees then it is proven in the more general sense of the word. Similar to double entry accounting, there are two sides to the coin and both sides have to agree else you know there is a problem somewhere. To make the very same mistake twice here is statistically unlikely, so when they do agree there is sufficient evidence to believe that it is proven.

What is more likely is that one does not take the time to truly understand what they need from software and introduce features that, in hindsight, they wish they hadn't, but that is done with more intentionality and isn't really the same thing as a bug or vulnerability traditionally.
Scratchy chalk is low-quality chalk or poor technique. Every writing instrument has its own techniques. Like how fountain pens work better at a lower angle and lower pressure, and ball-point pens work better at a higher pressure and the angle doesn’t matter so much.
They were in response to being attacked by Hamas for the umpteenth time. Every single time Israel responds, doesn't wipe out Hamas, agrees to a ceasefire, and it is then broken a year or two later by these insane death cultists.

They have had enough. Fair enough, I think. No other country would be told it should just tolerate nutters firing rockets at it daily, rapes, murders, killing civilians at music festivals.
No. You're thinking of ethyl alcohol. If you ingest isopropyl alcohol you're gonna have a bad day.

Oh and make sure the label on the ethyl alcohol does not contain the word "DENATURED." That's code for "tastes like shit and makes you sick."
We can say whatever we want, but aesthetically the site just delivers. :)
If shampoo was introduced today, the product would be laughed out of the room: who would put some sham poo on their heads? Nevertheless, people are fine with this weird word once it's become traditional.

If "gimp" is an ableist slur, is "lisp" an ableis slur, too? And does that Unix manual-viewing command seem to assume masculine superiority? While at it, that Unik signal-sending command would definitely be banned in Boston for indiscriminate cruelty.

I mean, come on. Humans are able to differentiate between meanings of a word, and even possess a sense of humor, to a degree.

That said, I'm totally not a fan of naming projects in a playfully stupid, disgusting, or, worse, obscene way. Sadly, people get their kicks out of that more often than I would like. But I think that the hooliganish joy of doing so critically depends on the rest of us reacting to such a name in an inflamed way, like above. There's something to be said about feeding trolls as a self-defeating behavior.

I would rather celebrate the major release.

In my day to day I write code libraries. Some of that code is boring, but some is making something very simple out of something very complicated.

Since I do this commercially, not for science, and since I don't agree with software patents (on principle), I don't "describe" the method anywhere.

Now it's possible that in that code is some novel thing. Perhaps am insight, perhaps an algorithm or technique. (I don't really think there is, such is my modesty, but its possible.)

Obviously from a "science" point of view, my work is meaningless. And perhaps that speaks to the point of academic science versus the "real world". Their goal is to "write stuff down" - not "do stuff" as much as "record stuff".

In the context of the above quote, I believe we might be doing scientific things (even novel things) but if we're not actively sharing that knowledge it's not "science".

Now of course lots of us -do- document things in blogs etc. But this informal writing on the internet is adding to a haystack, in which there might be gems, but how can they ever be found?
And the frequency with which you have to take one of the 168-hour shifts is inversely proportional to how many colleagues you have in the rotation. if somebody leaves, the amount of unpaid work you have to do increases.

So if on-call isn’t explicitly compensated, an employee quitting essentially gives the rest of the team more hours at a lower hourly rate.
Thank you. This is what I was hoping for. Indeed it might have been a joke.

There is an interesting project https://github.com/Abstrct/Schemaverse where the whole game takes place entirely within a postgres database that the players connect directly to.

The author discovered quite a few... well lets just call them policy errors in postgres, but had a hard time filing bug reports, mainly because the response was usually an incredulous "why on earth would you even do that in the first place?.

But the author has fun with this, There is a trophy in the game that you can only get by putting your name in the trophy table.
This assumes that the engineers in question get to choose how to allot their time, and are _allowed_ to spend time to add graceful failure modes. I cannot tell you how many stories I have heard of, and companies I have directly worked at, where this power is not granted to engineers, and they are instead directed to "stop working on technical debt, we'll make time to come back to that later". Of course, time is never found later, and the 3am pages continue because the people who DO choose how time is allocated are not the ones waking up at 3am to fix problems.

I've heard Gnome used as an insult far more than Gimp.

the irony is KYC/AML basically only made things worse for consumers while doing nothing to combat banks from doing lots of illegal things.

KYC/AML now means you have to share incredibly personal and high-risk details with... anyone you bank with or who has to transmit funds. So now every single element of the banking system is a target due to that data.

And like clock-work HSBC and Chase have still been caught and meagerly fined for transacting with known terror groups and drug cartels. At times even laundering money for known persons even on OFAC ban lists.
Big Pharma profits low in the US? Please. Their R&D happens wherever talent is cheapest, their tax havens wherever laws are loosest, and their profits—record-breaking year after year—safely deposited wherever shareholders are happiest. If only their medicines were as creative as their accounting.

The real innovation is their business model: socialize the research costs, privatize the profits. Billions in taxpayer dollars fund the basic science, university labs, and early clinical trials that underpin 'breakthrough' drugs. Yet when these public investments strike gold, not a penny in dividends flows back to the public coffers that made it possible. Instead, we pay twice—first through our taxes to develop the drugs, then through world-leading prices to access them. That's not capitalism; that's a publicly-subsidized monopoly.
This makes me wonder how many fake stars an adversary would have to put up (and for how long?) in order to confuse a celestial navigation system.

The physical world stiletto shoe challenge rests on the engineering of the "shank and heel" piece, the actual heel and the weight supporting shank that arcs under the foot between the in and outsole.

These can be steel, titanium, thick plastic, etc. The integrity and trustworthiness of the stiletto relies on these often very thin pieces staying undeformed and rigid wrt each other despite human mass scale forces bending, twisting, rolling and threatening to break the heel and shank join.
The statement was about petty crimes. Things like downloading a song without paying.

If you think people of certain ethnic, racial, political, or religious demographics are more likely to download a song without permissions, I'd like to know what demographics you think are the most likely and least likely to do it.

Because I don't know of a single person in my life who has a computer and hasn't done it.
This kind of approach of allocating objects to a context which is freed all at once is implemented in GNU obstacks.

I write directly on the drywall, it's a lifehack that forces you to accept your past ideas and thoughts.
Binary files are useful, but binary files that aren't either zip, sqlite, or a media container seem pretty niche.

It makes sense for model weights and media and opaque blobs where you don't need to load just a part of it, but I see a lot of custom binary save files that don't seem to make any sense.

If it's a server, everything is probably in a database, and if it's a desktop app, eventually something is going to make an 8GB file and it's probably going to be slow unless you have indexing.

People are also likely to want to incrementally update the file as well.

If you're sure nobody will ever make a giant file, then VCSability is probably something someone will want.
I was thinking SPI access from a mcu would be the way to go. While the individual data rate would be fairly low, running a lot of them at the same time would probably add up.

If they just need the slots to plug everything in and leave overnight you could probably just run off some PCBs with heaps of card slots per mcu and let it cycle through them one after another
I met him once at a conference, very interesting guy and funny too.
As a contrast to the hand waving in the other posts which claims many don't pay full price, the degree I got cost $20k per semester for the 2 years I attended university after community college, paid in full each semeser. That's one data point, I know. And maybe it's an outlier.

I'd be interested to know, of the people who got grants and other support, what percentage of their total tuition was it? And what percentage of people got support?

It's also worth noting, that there's a difference between knowing you'll have support and the uncertainty of not knowing.
Or poor quality boards. I know I didn’t use a real slate board until later in university and it makes a world of difference. Really you need both, great chalk and a great board. But when you have both the feel is superb :)

Agree: They are called block trades in equities. Also, another benefit of a dark pool is that you can pay to control who you trade with. On the primary exchange, it is dog-eat-dog. This is why long-only asset managers prefer block trades for supersize trades, and dark pools for smaller trades.

To me, the practice of paying for (non-toxic retail) flow is way more suspicious than dark pools. This is how Robin Hood can offer free equity trading. They sell your flow to another firm that can front run it. Unless you have incredibly overreaching regulation and constant monitoring, it is literally a fox in the chicken coop.
Well, if the stated goal was to kill brain cells, I'm sure either will get you there
Tech might change scale, but we still had surveilence, secret police, masacares, etc in olden times.

If anything, in olden times many of these types of things were considered normal. As hard as it might feel like it is to see it, we have come a very long way when it comes to morals of wars & state violence. If nothing else at least we mostly feel like its "wrong" now.
