The RTX limitation was always a sham, and editing some config files allowed the feature to work on any CUDA-capable GPU from the start.

Removing this arbitrary limitation is a good thing, but they should have done this earlier.
How does this work in C++ with operator overloading. Are they still the same? That would make for some interesting obfuscated code.
It looks like they're not very far along. Do you know if there is an ETA on when they think it will reach signifigant?

I find it surprising to see they only have 925 tests. It seems to me that a spec of this nature is the type that would really benefit from a very test-based approach (as a s section is being written, so are conformance tests).
> It did no come into effect until years after passing (the DOJ keeps quoting that the sites have been breaking the law since 2006, somehow not knowing that the law wasn't enforced until much later).

The effective date is a statutory thing. If "wasn't enforced" is a reference to DOJ policy/behavior, that's irrelevant.

> The poker players association along with representatives who were working to overturn UIGEA, such as Barney Frank, worked tirelessly to continuously postpone enforcement of the act.

In other words, they lobbied but the law as in force.

I agree that it looks like the folks involved are being mistreated. Sadly that's just SOP.

> You have to ask yourself if this is fair

You do know that fair is irrelevant.

Sounds almost like "need for cognition" has a big overlap with simply "introverted".
There's a serious problem with the organization of the article. Early on, he tells the story of being scolded in school for noticing that his teacher's explanation for how planes work cannot be right, because if you turned the plane upside down, the Bernoulli force would be toward the ground.

He then goes on to talk about the Coanda effect, and how that combined with the shape of the wing makes the wing direct air toward the ground, and thus provides lift.

Suppose back in sixth grade, his teacher had taught that explanation instead of the incorrect Bernoulli effect explanation. He'd still have the same problem! Turn a wing upside down and the Coanda effect and shape are now deflecting air toward the sky, and the lift is toward the ground.

He should have had a little section at the end covering how planes actually fly upside down.

There are at least four ways to force air downward in order to help provide lift. There's the Bernoulli effect, which he points out doesn't provide very much lift. There's the Coanda effect, which he covers. Then there's simple brute force--point whatever you are using to provide thrust so that the thrust vector aims up somewhat instead of level. Finally, put something in the air flow at an angle so that it directly deflects the airflow down.

The first two work in the wrong direction when upside down, so it is the later two that are responsible for upside down flight. Note that both of these come with significant cost. If you are pointing your thrust vector up, you lose some forward thrust, so it is going to take longer and cost more in fuel to get where you are going. If you stick some flat surface in the air flow to just directly direct air downward, you are also introducing considerable drag, again making your trip take longer and use a lot more fuel.
thats shows that your co-founder probably had/has much more passion and dedication for the idea you guys had. As long as he loves what hes doing, is happy and can live off of it then it seems fine to me.
It's been a long time since I took physics, but isn't the Coanda effect only for fluid jets (i.e. like the straw in his experiment), and not applicable to airfoils in general (though see blown flaps for where it is applicable)
That's funny, I was expecting the opposite behavior:

fart => [ :fart ]
fart 1 => [ :fart, 1 ]
fart 1, 2 => [ :fart, 1, 2 ]

Seems more lispy to me, and from a quick glance I can't see where it would break.
Well, with their diet requirements that's not really a huge surprise. They seem ridiculously overconstrained.

"The ideal diet requires meeting four of five key components based on a 2,000-calories-a-day meal plan: 4 1/2 cups of fruits and vegetables a day; two or more 3.5-ounce servings of fish (preferably oily fish) a day; fewer than 450 calories a week of sugar-sweetened beverages; three or more 1-ounce servings a day of whole grains; and less than 1,500 mg of sodium a day."
The way I've always thought about and used StackOverflow is as a replacement for manuals, tutorials, and bug fixes—not at all a replacement for message boards or forums.
The title of this is basically false. The humans gave the overdose, the robot merely processed the order.
I'm not sure I follow. The author of that article asked people that question at conferences when showing them the UI screenshot in the article.
There are two very different senses of "growth" here.

The good sense is that better ways of doing things is "growth" -- for example cheaper more efficient solar panels can slow global warming, reduce centralized power, etc.

The bad sense is increased GDP, more stuff, etc. There's no strong reason good growth has to produce bad growth. We can decouple them.

const encrypted = await window.crypto.subtle.encrypt(
{ name: "AES-GCM", iv: new Uint8Array(12) /* don't reuse key! */ },
key,
new TextEncoder().encode(JSON.stringify(content))
);

This looks wrong. The iv should be a randomly generated string that is only used once. I'm not super familiar with modern Javascript, but I think you're just initializing a bunch of null bytes.

Honestly, I feel like whoever designed AES intended for people to make this mistake, because half of the sample code I see has this error, and it would have been easily avoided by specifying the IV length in the standard and requiring libraries to automatically generate it and prepend it to the ciphertext rather than letting callers have control over how it is initialized and stored.
I've spent multiple years in therapy trying to integrate just that - that this is wild. My normal prevents me having healthy relationships. Events like a plague are more dangerous to my ptsd work than my health (though I have asthma) because this stress feels like home to me. There is a relief of, like the shoe has dropped, because I've lived this. I've been waiting to say SEE I TOLD YOU ALL THIS IS NORMAL! My book is an apocalypse memoir not to be facetious but - everything is true. Every event and thought is me in the late 80s, how I perceived every non-grandparent age adult as a horrible threatening monster who could without warning rip you to shreds and then never explain why. And I was lucky. I was born white and in Canada and I met some really kind people who (because I look non threatening ) saved me - not with money or food - but by just being nice, opening up to me. Saying nice things and laughing at my painful jokes and forgiving me for being really fucking bizarre. That's really why I wrote it - so folks can empathize with marginalities and the struggles between class/race/gender/sexuality and education and identity and then see you don't need to donate money or time to make a revolution. Just like be there, emotionally. Listen and expect nothing. And, that easy, you healed part of my identity.
I'm not refuting your point here but it feels like on HN everytime we hit any web topic there are the kind of comments about "wait but this could happen / what if the website owner is malicious / included some wonky code he doesn't know about, etc".

They're not wrong, but also not the point of the article.

>As the maintainer of Excalidraw, I now sleep much better at night. If the hosting service gets compromised, it doesn’t really matter as none of the content can be decrypted without the key.

This seems to be the point of the article, and valid IMO. Yet on HN more and more we get dragged off on these larger state of the web topics. They're not wrong either, but I feel like the volume sort of drown out the point / valid topics too.
But that's not what this is doing at all. This is keeping existing corporate debt artificially priced.

Unless they lower rates to negative, new debt isn't getting any cheaper.
I'm sorry that you seem to work for a crappy hospital. I'm at Mayo, and we've been serious about it for weeks now.
The question here is what constitutes someone being 'denied' housing. Is needing to live with roommates being 'denied' housing?
I don't think it ever will be. I first installed redhat linux back in 95, and it was a multi weekend project, and I had to solder something. Since then, the installation has gone from insane to Windows XP easy, but it seems stuck there. And even for a media server, I have to dip into the shell to get it working. If you still have to use the shell 20 years later for a non edge case, it isn't going to get better, there is something about the architecture that is preventing it.

And I don't want an office suite, or movie recorder, or any of that crap. But I want the Gnome Terminal, or other pretty terminal where I have font smoothing or whatever that is called. I know I can do this with Arch, but I'm not a systems guy, I'm a developer, and I don't want to have to learn about all the systems crap. I just want a shell that is pleasant to look at, my fatigue is so much less when looking at pleasant non offensive colours.

The core premise that society undervalues "non-making" seems wrong, though. It can certainly feel that way when you hang around in specific circles and subcultures where it is disproportionately represented (as the author presumably does, mentioning technology), but on a macro level Western culture is in favor of positions that have historically been considered prestigious and well-paid - law, medicine, finance and so forth.

Someone whose title includes "manager" is likely held in higher regard, than say, someone with "engineer". Doesn't matter what kind of manager, the term itself has positive connotations to laymen.

Then of course, artists are stereotypically associated with bohemianism and poverty.

As an example, certain aspects that encompass "maker culture", including many fields that fundamentally intersect with programming, aren't even formal professions.
From my testing, the macbook air is one of the better laptops on the market now in terms of battery life and general feel (the touchpad is second to none in my opinion).

But even for a laptop this prevalent, getting it to work with Ubuntu is a pain, and you run into a bunch of little bugs consistently.

I understand that it's a major uphill battle, but over the many many laptops I've tried to use with Linux, I've not found one that offers a good experience when it comes to the things that are important to a laptop (like battery life, secondary display support, and the like).

I'm totally cool with using Linux on a desktop (though I don't own a desktop anymore), had some great experiences even when going full Arch.
I wrote a post some years ago about why screens have won over rockets.

Why are we now more concerned with melding media than melding matter.

I agree with the author that it's about values; now that survival, food, shelter, etc are cheaply met, our reward system has the luxury of indulging in TV watching, candy crush, etc.

"None of my friends who are outside of med school believes in the stress and depression as they only see the high salaries and good life doctors are living but doesn't see the stress until you enter the field,"

Grass is always greener on the other side. I will encourage you to explore more your options between medicine and IT and make sure you are not afflicted with same syndrome as your friends.

Medical profession has a good reputation and doctors are held in high regards in non-medical professions. I will suggest leveraging this reputation and respect to get yourself into a good position in non-medical profession if you don't want to practice as a medical doctor. Don't squander it away by becoming an entry level drone in technology industry.

Another alternative may be to consider medical profession as means to achieving the end you want. Tough it out for a few years, achieve financial independence as quickly as possible and then do what you want to do in technology whether medical related or not.

Have you heard of White Coat Investor http://whitecoatinvestor.com? He is an ER doctor who started blogging about personal finance from doctor's viewpoint. He seems to have become quite popular in finance area with books and speaking engagements specially targeted at medical professionals. It seems he is drawing almost $200K from his finance-related side activities on top of whatever his ER compensation is. You could follow on his footsteps. Suck up and be a medical doctor for a few years, keep technology as side activity until your side activities become as big as being medical doctor then do whatever you like.
Just FYI, bulletproof as a diet appears to be pretty snake-oily. But I'm sure the coffee tastes great so there's nothing inherently wrong with drinking it.
Thanks, I hadn't heard of the names "Russian doll" or "partials" before. I haven't worked with a CMS (or even web apps at all really) for over a decade now but I'm surprised you seem to imply that automatic dependency management isn't standard stuff these days already. It was certainly very useful to us, though admittedly tricky to implement robustly.
This is bad ass. Good work!
I always thought Oracle's PL/SQL looked more similar to ALGOL than Pascal. They even mention ALGOL in their documentation. :)
I wrote a GPL licensed layout manager (https://golden-layout.com/) that also comes with commercial licenses. It's been out for three months now and seems to appeal to financial institutions. Revenue is ok, especially since most sales are the more expensive (399 GBP) multi domain license, but a lot of the bigger customers don't want to just purchase it through the website, but rather enter into a more bespoke contract which comes with some overhead.
Being in the top 3 HN links rather implies that it is somehow special.
Two KSP mentions:

Q: In order to use the full MCT design (100 passengers), will BFR be one core or 3 cores?

EM: At first, I was thinking we would just scale up Falcon Heavy, but it looks like it probably makes more sense just to have a single monster boost stage.

Q: Nice to see you are doing things the Kerbal way.

EM: Kerbal is awesome!

The second one:

Q: "Hi Elon! Huge fan of yours. Have you heard of/played Kerbal Space Program? Also do you see SpaceX working with Squad (the people behind KSP) to integrate SpaceX parts into KSP?"

Reply (not from EM): What do you think SpaceX uses for testing software?

EM to Reply: Kerbal Space Program!

Short version - Elon Musk likes and plays Kerbal Space Program.
Wizards? It's an e-commerce web site. This is baby stuff, even at scale.
Well their offering is much simpler than that of AWS, Azure or GCP. I've been using them for over 5 years now without any issues, it's often the case that you get what you pay for but Linode do a very good job for their price point (yes they've had their issues but so have Gandi, Digital Ocean, ... any other competitor).
Like in DOS blocking? I'd expect that too. But this doesn't sound like the kind of thing rasz_pl would object to?
As a Mac user, I only download applications from the wild-wild-web if the developer is a big player, like Google, Mozilla or Adobe (except I refuse to install Flash).

I think it is just too big risk to download from a small business which I don't know and run their application outside the sandbox.

So, I'd recommend that you have some version in MAS, otherwise you may lose customers.
In a world where Ethereum 2.0 turns out to be difficult or irrelevant, the value of that contract will drop a lot for the same reasons.
Much of the improvements you get with upgrades are often just redoing the configuration correctly. A two second pause sounds like a timeout of some sort.

The only problem is their high fees ($75/mo minimum, $35/mo fee, 2.29% + $0.30 per transaction). They're an absolute killer if you want to accept micropayments of < $100 a month, initially...

Jokes aside, this is an amazing marketing/hiring tool for Facebook. I hope they print this on billboards.
Ah, that's why I didn't think of them :( That is terribly unfortunate. They seem to be the best option so far, and if the only alternative is Braintree, it seems that the project is dead before it even begins...
The parent post isn't only about the 'getting started problem'. It's about
accepting your unproductive days without forcing you to try nevertheless.

About the 'getting started problem', there's the german term 'Handlungs- und
Lageorientierung'. People with the personality trait 'Lageorientierung' are
very focused on the current emotions. If they currently don't feel doing
something, then they don't start doing it.

If you nevertheless of your feelings start doing something, and then feel
the enjoyment, then the friction decreases, you're just doing it. You
need the initial force to get started.
If you let google personalize your results, then this probably happened because "code" usually means programming...for you.
>You forgot the piece that SVN integrates with IDEs. This is it, case closed.

IDE integration makes more sense with file focused systems like ClearCase. With "whole picture" focused systems like SVN, Git, etc., the value of IDE integration is less because you check in whole change sets at once. The only IDE I've ever seen that dealt with this reasonably well was Smalltalk.

>They want IDE integration, they won't use branches or any other features (some won't even know what the hell "branches" are), they will only use version control as a means to have a centralize repository for the code.

DVCS can do exactly this. Set up a hook so that e.g. Git pushes to a central repo on commit. You don't need to teach them about branches or any of that, just give them something simple.

By doing just this much you get automatic local "backups" of the repo and you get vastly better protection against corruption and tampering.

>And they use Windows.

No problem. Mercurial, for example, supports windows very well. Including a Tortoise interface that is (IMO) better than what SVN provides.

>SVN solves the problem. It's either SVN or something worse (CVS and SourceSafe are still widely used).

That may have been true 5 years ago but it just isn't today.

>Version control is a tool. You have a set of requirements and you choose the tool based on those requirements. There is no such thing as "obsolete".

This is a pretty ridiculous statement. Of course there is a such thing as "obsolete". When an alternative comes along that does everything its predecessor did, better and even with extra features on top of that then it has fully obsoleted said predecessor. This happens all the time in software. SVN fully obsoleted CVS. C fully obsoleted B. On and on.
Hm, this and some of the other comments being mentioned are the much less interesting instances of "correlation != causation". Specifically, these examples (including the Superbowl indicator) are assumed to be cases of coincidence (with enough data, certain slices of noise will look like signal).

By contrast, the much more interesting and relevant examples are things like hidden variables: a third factor that has causal relationships (in whatever direction) with both of the correlated variables being described, even though the two correlated variables have no such causal relationship.

For an extremely trivial example, the data likely supports the conclusion that you're more likely to get into car accidents when you have an umbrella with you. This obviously doesn't imply that having an umbrella in your car causes more car accidents: but rather that the hidden variable of rainy weather causes both "people have umbrellas with them" and "people get into more car accidents". Controlling for rainy weather (i.e. examining the correlation during sunny days only or rainy days only), you'd likely find that the correlation vanishes.

I never said anything about serotonin syndrome...?? ...

Furthermore, I wasn't even the original GP, so how am I "exhausting?" The only thing I said was supplements are basically unregulated (theres a good chance your bottle of St Johns Wort is actually rice powder * ) and talk to your doctor before taking supplement and before stopping supplements abruptly. Trust me, antidepressant discontinuation syndrome is complete HELL.

These artifacts were found by random chance, often while plowing a field. Which means that the vast majority of such artifacts has never been found. So if we found a few already, it is quite likely that there are many more such identical dirks out there --it is possible they were mass produced to an extent, or at least that a same model was being produced for relatively long periods.
Thank you all for sharing your recommendations.

I guess the main reason you got downvotes with this concept is that, in most cases, you have different conclusion/insight from majority's. For this report, it's easier for us to come to similar ones. As an explanation for the possible issue for this report, users tend to upvote the parent comment as most of us accept it.
This is beautiful...I don't know why, but it is.

I'm currently working on a web tracker, and it turns out that it is /much/ easier said than done. You have all the problems of making a web app, coupled with all the problems of making a tracker (of which there are many). Plus, you seem to be suggesting a one-stop allgear tracker, which makes it ten times worse, since one doesn't seem to exist even for desktop yet.

And, a shoutout to, IMO, one of the coolest quasi-demoscene places on the internet, http://battleofthebits.org. Without them, I would never have gotten my feet off the ground with coding.

I don't relate to this at all, but accept that I'm an outlier in the marketplace. I have a cheap android phone on a cheap month-to-month plan. Other than the apps it came with, I have installed very little from Google Play. I use the phone for texting, phone calls, mobile email, maps, occasionally mobile browsing, and that's about it. I don't play games with it, I don't listen to music with it, I don't take pictures with it. Even this cheap phone does way more than I need. I would never consider an iPhone.
It is not downvoted (gray) any more.
