The causal link to social media is presented very simply in the article, but I suspect that's mainly because the article is not about diagnosis, but about the prevalence of the pattern. There is a lot of data to support the social medi

Vibrating a piston at low frequencies isn't hard, but getting it to move enough air is very hard. You're right that "big enough" with "enough power" could solve that problem, but the mechanics of a conventional

The actor pattern exists for this reason - it's not like AI is a singular thing checking itself - you could easily have 1000 instances with supervisors automatically rotating out unhealthy instances so that the system is self-repairing

There's an interesting parallel between this critique and bad interviewing practices - the kind where the interviewer has a toy problem with a particular "correct" answer in their head and asks the interviewee to figure it ou

I think the pithy saying is that we learn best from failure, not that there is no other way to learn.

Going entirely on gut feel, I suspect that outages like this will be 1) less common and 2) addressed more quickly with AI-supported DevOps in the not-too-distant future.

I know that some other comments indicate that it's not fair to say "you're prompting it wrong", but using ChatGPT with GPT-4, and using advice to set up prompts to give accurate answers, GPT-4 provides an excellent answe

I might be misinterpreting the article, but the first two paragraphs specifically describe the over-abundance of marketplace sellers offering similar and sometimes identical products. They're using the same seller platform - Amazon - b

This language style is a bit more common in academic writing outside of the Anglo tradition that is most commonly reported in the English-speaking world. British and American university training emphasises more clinical language, for better

@elliottkember is giving the correct complimentary antonym to "reinforce" in behavioral psych - "punishment" reduces the frequency of a behavior, "reinforcement" increases the frequency. There's a spectrum

The 'Medium' trend seems to most off to me, but I've seen it repeated as truth by a number of people Medium: text -> images -> video -> 3D graphics -> VR A lot of people/companies don't seem to appreciat

The article specifically points out that Germany has similar regulatory and cost overrun challenges, so in general it can't be used as a counterpoint - the example case where things went well for Germany is attributed to waiving proced

Results sections typically do not try to make any inferences about the population at large, only the studied sample. They are also stated in the language of statistics - because the results failed to statistically uphold the "TRE is mo

I've started searching for something similar, and it looks like such devices are now referred to as DAPs (digital audio players), and the market is very small, mostly served by devices targeting audiophiles. I'm considering gettin

Could you expand on this? I can't think of places where a string enum would be less useful than a numeric, although I can think of places where numeric enums fall over, e.g. if you have a value that can be one of two different enums an

I don't get the sense that runtime CSS parsing is really much of a concern - it's more about build speed and asset size - since 'green' might be used hundreds of times in a large CSS bundle, the optimization might make s

Parcel has been around for awhile, and the project currently has a lot of activity - I've made the call to migrate an old create-react-app project to Parcel 2 and in general it is going well. The nice thing about Parcel is that it is i

Language evolves, as the wiki article you linked describes. Your prescriptivist nit-picking doesn't contribute to the discussion. From the HN guidelines: - Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone sa

I had a similar thought, but I wonder how much a 'powder' would qualify as microplastic - can a microplastic be so small that it doesn't have the same food-chain impact as slightly-larger microplastic? Is it possible to make

I haven't read this interpretation of the Arctic Vault project - presumably most users of GitHub are okay with their code being reproduced/backed up across many production servers for fault tolerance. Making an 'extra special

Interesting take on the challenge of determining professional trust. Seeing pictures of 3 white/European males on the homepage might turn off a more diverse audience of users, however - even if it's representative of the early ado

I agree with some other commenters that these are very pared-back icons, but I don't see that as a bad thing - they might not be quite right to use as-is for many projects, but they're a great starting point that a design system c

of course not, but the effort to bring real-time collaboration to native apps is much higher, e.g. MS Office's still-poor current experience compared with Google Docs's capabilities 5 years ago

Presumably - Sketch is great software, well built, but the fact that in late 2020 they still have to write "And soon, the ability to collaborate in real-time" is the the best counter-argument to building native for me personally.

This is so key - there was some awareness early on that people weren't "working from home" in any normal sense - we were/are "working during a global pandemic". Forced WFH is only one side effect, and trying to

yeah it's been awhile since I've set up a python-ready environment, and trying to install this reminded me of the challenge of just getting to the expected starting point. $ pip install git-delete-merged-branches zsh: comman
