   This is some really beautiful work. Anyone know where we could get some posters and support the artist?

   That would be my thinking as well. Sure you can train yourself to learn new things "better" but there are some people who seem to be real polymaths at a level which the rest of us cannot seem to attain even with years of practice.

   Reminds of a scene out of Westworld where they are talking about how the "hosts" are more human than humans since they can modify their "core directives" or the code running inside them. Cuts to the heart of the "fr

   How do you think about this compared to something like Dataiku?

   Poetry is fantastic but it looks like pip is trying to create their own competitor. [1] I would much prefer if the pypa folks and the poetry folks got together to more tightly integrate the systems. Poetry solves a ton of problems ranging f

   Doesn't this violate the spirit of Show HN? I thought only the authors could submit them unless they are all authors of the project.

   I wonder if the time bound can be reduced on something like this with things we do every day. Open Gmail/Twitter on our phone, move outside of a geo fence. For people who are actually concerned about this but can not afford a body guar

    The most interesting part about this page was the audio version of the page. I really enjoyed that. Would love to see more authors record their essays so we can hear it in their voice!

    If you click on the roadmap link in the main README, you can see the issues selected for development on a GH Project Kanban board. [1] [1] https://github.com/github/roadmap/projects/1

    This comment really is not in the spirit of HN. I would not attack the age of the poster and rather attack the merits of their arguments.

    I might get around to doing the math myself, but what would be the APY given the expected earnings I calculated above with an average American savings account of say $7,000.

    Haha I did the math on this for that exact reason. I guess it only makes sense if you live in New York and can walk by the mailing address.

    Copying and pasting a note I wrote when I cam across this on Twitter [1] For the sweepstakes aspect, not considering the splits for larger prize money, the expected value is ~ $0.02 for every $25 you put in. The APY here seems to be

    It’s more fun to work with people who enjoy work rather than people who work to enjoy. At least that’s my 2 cents

    GitHub and GitLab have visual indications for the mirroring you mentioned, example: • https://github.com/PyCQA/flake8 • https://gitlab.com/pycqa/flake8 I'm not aware of any tools that sync is

    This is an awesome story, I especially like the speaker's organization of the narrative taking us along for the ride. Maybe this will be the push I need do a better job learning Unix tools.

    A morbidly interesting fact, the total number of coronavirus deaths as of 2020-04-13 is 118,304 which makes the list total of 411, ~0.35% of the total deaths. [1] This compares to the 950,903 living "notable" people on Wikipedia o

    I brought ROS to FIRST robotics back when I was in high school and I still think it continues to change the game for how people work with robots [1, 2] The modularity / plug-n-play nature of the system makes swapping sensors (which oft

    This is right, the information can be combined using the uncertainties given by each observation through a process known as sensor fusion. [1] An article that pops up sometimes on HN describes one way to combine such information known as a

    At least since I've been browsing HN, it's been this way and I quite enjoy it. Lot's of Wikipedia pages I would otherwise not stumble upon. Usually, they are quite relevant to something happening in current events.

    Thanks for clearing that up. Does this mean that GH Actions will support installation caching out of the box?
28. 178.▲
    by abalaji 7y ago

    In fact there is no stable caching (it's being worked on) and that is a major problem with the system. [1] What pushed us over the edge to take the plunge was out of the box support for MacOS builds. [1] https://devblogs.mic

    Not sure I understand. From my understanding Azure Pipelines is a service offered as part of Azure DevOps. Does this make the offerings of Azure Pipelines redundant?

    Really interesting. My project just migrated to Azure DevOps and I noticed that their configuration file looks really similar. My suspicion is that Azure DevOps is backing GitHub CI/CD.
