I wonder if there's a more graph oriented score that could work well here - something pagerank ish so that a repo scores better if it has issues reported by users who themselves have a good score. So it's at least a little resilient to crude manipulation attempts
I remember only a few days ago this was a hosted version of https://github.com/maybe-finance/maybe
It looks like they're pivoting into corporate finance tracking which seems like a good move but still a bit jarring as I was curious to give this a go!
Existing customers - what comms have you received?
I don't really want to self-host this even though I might. Before I commit, what are some alternatives? The UI seemed very compelling
Selegiline is also known as Emsam, the patches reportedly Sam Bankman-Fried was on, alongside ADHD meds. I recall reading how this may have been a large driver of his compulsive risk it all decision making that eventually brought it all down.
Try telling all this to someone who is effectively emotionally/physically disabled because their mind and body either enter a rollercoaster or just shutdown in response to anything vaguely reminiscent of something they experienced.
I think these treatments are better understood as methods to encourage one's mind and body to reprocess some experience so that it is "merely" a terrible thing that happened so they can live a stabler, more balanced, more normal life.
There are "better" databases but they're better given some particular definition that may not be relevant to your needs. If SQL/the relational model and ACID semantics is what you need then postgres is simply the best in class. The fact it dates back to the 80s is probably an advantage (requirement?) when it comes to solving a problem really well
Do point us at this standard notation

My best guess is a lack of willing participants combined with pressure from up top to move money to keep the operation going/meet targets.
We also don't know how much of that 500k is profit - maybe the margins in organised crime aren't what they used to be. Each $3,750 saved is money they can put straight into their pocket as their boss might never find out how many mules they ended up using.
Or maybe the reporting is fishy
Writing blog posts is the lowest barrier of entry there is to contributing to the sum total of knowledge for some particular keywords, problem space. Sometimes even, years of blogging gets edited and expanded upon into an entire book but I suppose no one cares about those either.
Oh, cool! So kinda like IRC?
The second sigh sounds like it may, in effect, progressively overload your lung capacity. Felt good too
Maybe because it's a pretty good fit for the only things that ultimately matter: allocating budget and attributing revenue and PnL
tig-bug would be fun
The recession(s) are fucking different demographics in different ways.
One thing that's certainly happening in London is that there's hundreds of entry-level candidates fighting for only a handful of openings.
The industry has generally become more risk-averse. Hiring less experienced people is now extra risky, as it is a bet that they'll generate some value for the company before moving on for a higher salary elsewhere. Hiring juniors is a great long-term move, especially in a 0% rates landscape and when VC funding is plentiful but if you only have 12 months cash it's pretty hopeful.
This budget is now being used to hire safer, more predictable hires: seniors (know what you're getting into) and contractors (can cut them with 28 days notice or even less, no employment contract to complicate things)
Fine, will elaborate:
Regular consumption of breakfast cereals is associated with diets that are lower in fat
why is this necessarily a good thing?
Regular consumption of breakfast cereals is associated with diets that are higher in vitamins and minerals for adults, adolescents, and children
is the subset of vitamins and minerals and the corresponding RDAs that they look at responsible for driving meaningful outcomes or do they just pick whatever's convenient?
Regular consumption of breakfast cereals is associated with a greater likelihood of meeting recommended nutrient intakes
again, recommended nutrient intakes is very convenient considering they're derived from how nourished a population is, i.e: as a nourishment goes down so do the recommended levels.
Consumption of breakfast cereals is associated with higher daily milk intake
Only thing so far that might actually be causal to health. Probably not though because the frankenmilk we consume today is not the raw milk we were consuming a century ago.
Consumption of presweetened breakfast cereals does not increase the total daily energy intake in children’s diets
calories in/ calories out is not as useful as made out to be, there's quite little wrong with consuming a lot of calories if those calories are well utilised
Consumption of breakfast cereals does not increase the total daily sodium intake
Sodium is an essential electrolyte/signaling ion. Too much is bad in the presence of insulin insensitivity. Too little is really bad if the individual is metabolcially sound for the most part.
Consumption of presweetened breakfast cereals does not increase total daily sugar intake of children and adolescents
second one so far that might actually be a really good proxy
tl;dr: no idea how many of these are useful proxies for things that actually matter
Only tangentially related but quite interesting: https://mobile.twitter.com/GraduatedBen/status/1565041582671...
Sometimes I wonder if SSRIs are one of those things that the industry overinvested in and now that there's plenty of momentum (and budget) to support the narrative that they are the cure it's hard to suggest that there may be simpler alternatives
Cute!!
HNers believe this conspiracy theory about their own governments (that they are deliberately secretly plotting to be despotic, and using the cover of trying to protect children) with no actual evidence, just a lot of winks and eyebrow wiggling. Complete abdication of rational thinking.
Ha, I don't think most HNers would be quick to say think their governments are capable of conspiracy. I think most would say it's just more your regular run of the mill taxpayer-funded incompetency.
You're probably referring to another book as this one's main author is a she.
The book makes a point of how you can't predict the future. Instead it enumerates a bunch of shapes the future could take given various sets of assumptions. Some of the shapes look decent but require a lot of things to go right in the meantime.
I don't think disgust is "innate".
Oh it is and what til you hear about couple more fears we didn't have to learn through experience:
Examples of innate fear include fears that are triggered by predators, pain, heights, rapidly approaching objects, and ancestral threats such as snakes and spiders. Animals and humans detect and respond more rapidly to threatening stimuli than to nonthreatening stimuli in the natural world.
Some adaptations are so worthwhile they get wired into our biology!
This seems like something that could have massive tail upside. You help someone with lots of resources recover something of sentimental value, they tip you couple $k.
And the individual lemmas could have author and chronology metadata attached, then you could plot the DAG as a roadmap/tech tree of sorts with an axis corresponding to time.
You'd be able to at a glance see the year a result entered public domain, who authored it, etc
One can dream
If PLN depreciates against USD (as it has this year) and the contract is USD denominated (which is simpler for Google so likely the case) then you'll have actually received a gradual payrise!
It could be mostly 1)
If you hire a smart kid with an MBA from stanford and he gives you a bad name with a series of mistakes, well, bad apples happen. If you hire a smart kid from a no name university and the same happens people will be quicker to blame you.
Credentialism is a thing for the same reason brand recognition is a thing. When a product with good reputation fails it's bad luck. When a product with bad reputation fails it's to be expected. Power perpetuates.
Seems on brand
In an alternate universe: - firmware updates to intentionally reduce max volume, 1% at a time so people don't notice - monthly subscription to increase max volume
Going to take this as an opportunity to ask, has anyone here worked with https://www.reactstorefront.io/
It looks like a very competent solution but would like to hear from actual users
My cynical explanation is that babies don't vote
Protect against screenshots? Could you elaborate please
One of the problems is: what is the language to describe these diagrams? We do have UML and it's various variants: PlantUML, Mermaid but these are too low level to prescribe conventions over how to use these to describe complex architectures. A sequence diagram could describe anything through customer journeys, rest api call patterns to call stacks within a VM. Granularity/level of abstraction needs to be captured or else you end up with metres squared of boxes that cannot be parsed at a glance unless you're Rainman.
The closest I found that solves this problem is https://c4model.com/ but you still need the code to turn your code into these markups. Can this be well inferred from code alone without framework specific interpreters? I doubt it.
And then you still need a frontend to zoom and navigate the ridiculous amount of hierarchy found within any modern software architecture, e.g microservices.
It also doesn't help microservices patterns also prescribe that you don't share repositories or code. So now you also need to pattern match untyped references across these codebases.
This is a lot of convention and tooling that I'm not sure exists.
Edit: and this is before even getting into version control and reconciling the target->as-is iterative loop.
