I believe the hardware version traps to the OS for the aread instruction which then executes a bunch of low-level instructions to do IO and parsing.

You could start by making a CPU that traps to the OS for every single instruction (except for some minimal core), and then incrementally implement hardware versions to speed up execution.
Yep, pretty intense gerilla marketing on HN. Worked on me though... After the first article I thought "I want to read that at some point." After the second one, I added it to my wishlist. After they got Vincent Cerf to review it in nature I gave up and ordered it. Finished reading it a few weeks ago. A bit short, but well worth its money.

Use the All-weather investment strategy to generate a neat return every year without worrying too much about a market crash. All weather strategy means something like:
80% index funds
12% bonds
8% gold/Cryptos

Do that with the $7M and you'll have around $350K every year (after taxes and inflation) for the rest of your life. And best of all, you'll still have $7M (+inflation) to give on to your own children when that day comes.

If you use the same compiler, ABI is a non-issue.

If you want to distribute dynamic-link binaries for windows, use MSVC.

If you want to distribute dynamic-link binaries for OS X, use Xcode.

If you want to distribute dynamic-link binaries for linux, you are SOL regardless of whether or not you are using C++, but if you use the same compiler and flags that the latest LTS version of Ubuntu uses, then it will work on Ubuntu, and will be made to work anywhere that Steam works.

It used to be that there were at least two C++ compilers for each *nix (typically GNU and something cfront based), so ABI was a much bigger deal.

When "Modern C++ Design" came out, famously none of the compilers could correctly compile all of the sample code. Since then things are much better; not that all compilers are bug-free of course, but they are sufficiently good enough that if you report a bug, you can expect it to be fixed.

[EDIT]

"Don't use STL Types in your interfaces" is not advice I've heard in like 15 years; I more often hear "If you're using a C array instead of a Vector, you're doing it wrong"

"Don't throw exceptions across module boundaries" seems similarly odd. Unless your constructors are inlined, no modern code-base will follow that rule because RAII relies so strongly on exceptions.

There are coding styles that are opposed to exceptions as part of an external interface, but that's due to exceptions not being checked as part of the type system, and is not what I would call a majority opinion.

Not sure what you're getting at, apart from the loss the same disadvantages also apply if the cable is superconducting.

Even worse, maintenance and running costs of superconducting cables are likely much higher due to the cooling (high temperature superconductors are "high temperature" in comparison to other superconductors - there's still lots of cooling needed).
A lot of the urban renewal I see is very concentrated. I recently was talking about this in a different context. A lot of Northeast port and manufacturing towns have indeed reinvigorated an area with nice condos, restaurants, chichi shops, cafes, etc. But, in many cases, it's an area you can walk across in 5 to 10 minutes and most of the area beyond is still rundown.

I definitely feel you, as I also went to Christian school for my whole academic career and decided I didn't believe right at the end.

Some thoughts,

The people who are making a strong effort like you seem to be, but that think they aren't very good still, probably actually are quite good. I'd ask what you feel like you are behind of. There will always be someone ahead and (what we might forget) tons of people behind you.

I look at my own life - I am pretty bad with women as a nearly 30 year old because I was raised in a strange puritanical culture and never learned how to woo effectively, but I also am currently working on starting my business full time which I couldn't have done with a family. I also was never taught evolution in school, but now I've become interested in it and by reading many books on the subject probably know quite a bit more about it than most people even if they did learn about it in school.

Everything is a tradeoff. I wish you the best!

The way I "quit" TV, and sugar, for that matter was to get them out of my day-to-day habit. For me that meant getting them out of the house. Sell the TV and dump cable if it is standing between you and your goals. Personally did that after a long period of travel after finding I did not miss it once.

With sugar, I stopped buying anything at the grocery with significant carbs. If I need a treat I turn to premium dark chocolate.

Well to be fair, skyscrapers don't blend with the horizon. Cell towers don't blend with the horizon. Cooling towers and smokestacks don't blend with the horizon.

The nice thing with coal and nuclear power is that rich people can push it's production to poorer areas and forget that there are major externalities to allow them to flip a light switch. Rejecting wind power because it [insert reason here] is just saying "make the poor people deal with it". It is quite literally one of the most selfish decisions anyone can make, to force the world to stay on coal power because wind turbines "don't blend with the horizon".

With UBI, the employer now can pay (wage-UBI) for every employee, shifting the wage burden off the employer and onto the state by a factor of UBI x population. With a jobs guarantee, an 'employer of last resort', the government sets the floor on wages through hiring, giving everyone who wants a job but can't find one in the open market at whatever base wage parallels UBI. The government only has to pay for base wage x unemployed rather than UBI x population. This also yields labor for the government for 'New Deal' type projects, and employers now have to do better than the base wage/job conditions to hire, raising the velocity of money. More importantly, everyone has the dignity of a job if they want it as well as the money needed for basic needs.

Are there guarantees that UBI will always be comparable to a living wage?

In addition to what /u/sotelo said, these types of models also have potential to detect fake audio - if something sounds good to the ear but is highly unlikely according to the model, it may indicate something that needs further investigation/verification.

Also note that the user demo as it stands only lets you clone your own voice - so it's not like anyone can start synthesizing Presidents saying things just yet.

This type of thing has been possible on a very expensive one-off basis for anyone with a large enough corpus of the person to copy, deep enough pockets, and a computer for a long time. Hire an audio engineer and stitch together chunks of the voice to say whatever you want, with a bit of cleanup and selection of the text to say it can work quite well. This is the entire idea behind concatenative synthesis!

Here, the capability is out in the open - see also the ethics statement on their page [0].

I've been trying for several years to determine the company size at which we will be forced to turn our understandable site into marketing buzzwords and incomprehensible sentences. 50 people? $5 million/year in revenue? What is the turning point and who drops by to force us into incomprehensibility?
Would you like to point out how it's biased and incorrect? My latter claim is that we should base features on aspects that an individual could be reasonably held responsible for, rather than aspects out of their control such as their race, gender, or where they grew up.

So my philosophy of "fairness" here is that we should hold people responsible only for their own actions, which, while off-the-cuff, seems like it would agree with most justice systems. If we included demographic information in our models, we would effectively be holding individuals responsible for the actions of others, which doesn't seem sound.
I assume, before posting this very serious set of comments, that you have exhaustively researched exactly how much turbine surface area would be needed to cause climactic impacts and are prepared to show your work, especially around how a sub-percent surface area of the Himalayas would cause such drastic results in a desert a continent away. I would love to see this sterling research I'm certain you have conducted. Please educate all of us so that we can be enlightened as to the turbine menace.
> electric car batteries degrade towards low energy/weight ratio

And even then- barely. The Panasonic NCR18650B has a weight of 3.94 kg/kWh at the beginning of its life, and a weight of 4.92 kg/kWh after it's considered "dead". The average US household uses 30 kWh/day, which would require 117 kg of new batteries (in practice the pack will weigh double that) or an extra 29 kg if you use old batteries with 300k miles on them. That's an immaterial difference for almost any purpose.

Used car batteries will be incredible. Salvaged Tesla modules are already starting to have impacts on hobbyists, but if used cells make it to market at even just a 25% discount it'll be incredibly awesome.
I completely agree with you.

(It's worth nothing that fracking and coal mining are even worse.)
There is no cut-off line because symbolic capital is not something that has a mathematical formula. The ways in which people express status varies from social group to group, and from situation to situation. The idea that a claim is only valid if it is a closed proposition that applies under all circumstances is a bad one. You need to undertake an ethnography, sociological study, etc., to understand how commodities function in cultural hierarchies in any particular case.

> Why would anyone engage in a transaction where they give away all of the money they would gain as a profit?

I sure you get this, but traditional model is that an employer's willingness to pay is tied to productivity. Not necessarily at a 1:1, as there's risk, capital costs and other factors to consider. But anything meeting the hurdle rate is theoretically fair game, including labor. And on the margins, if an employer wishes to expand their employee base -- because it's profitable to do so[1] -- they'll have to offer candidates a better opportunity than they have now. US unemployment is low, and presumably tech even lower[2].

Over time, we would expect that growing companies raise wage rates in the labor markets they draw from. As you say, no different than any other market, all else held constant, an increase in demand leads to a new equilibrium price. A higher market rate for bolts, so to speak.

> Companies don't pay more than the market rate for bolts just because they are doing well.

Well, many clearly have bonus programs tied to overall corporate welfare. I think we're talking past one another. I'm suggesting the market rate could be higher, and that the demand side potential limiter of wages -- profitability of large labor market buyers -- doesn't seem to be a factor. You're pointing out that the supply side is equally important, and well, duh.

And to bring the discussion back to the comment I was responding to originally, the fact that startups have to compete with established profitable firms for talent doesn't explicitly mean employees have too much bargaining power.

> Even if companies have a wide gap where they could compensate more, the upward pressure will not exist if there are enough qualified employees to fill the positions at a lower wage.

Certainly, the fact that they chose to secretly form a cartel doesn't support the 'flooded with qualified candidates' position. That's a lot of risk to take on (and eventually be slapped on the wrist for) if there's no upside.

It's a work in progress, unlike what the article says. In my city, we revitalized downtown, then the east side of town, now they're working on the northwest side of town. As the city becomes more popular, more businesses and people want to move in but now property values are higher and vacant buildings are less common, so you have to move further from the city center. It starts at the center and works its way outward.

> pretty intense gerilla marketing on HN

It doesn't need to be targeted at HN: members of HN are members of the general population, and the publishers/marketers of the book are understandably going to be doing their jobs which includes getting articles written,w which members of HN come across in the course of their lives. It's not surprising they would then share these articles on HN.

Say an actor is making appearances on a bunch of different talk shows promoting their upcoming movie. The fact that Alice and Bob find out they happened to see the same actor on different shows while at the water cooler doesn't mean the actor was targeting this particular water cooler or Alice and Bob in particular.

Offshore you can install bigger turbines, because sea transportation of turbine components is not size-limited like rail/road transport. Taller turbines help to reach wind resources that are stronger and steadier. Also, even at the same height, offshore wind resources are often better than they are a few km inland. Finally, offshore wind can supply power to densely populated coastal areas when there isn't room to build turbines on land.

The disadvantages are higher construction and maintenance costs; waves and salt water are much more challenging to materials than the ordinary conditions onshore turbine towers experience.

I made my Twitter account in 2007. Those were the days. Now, the platform is the mostly used for propaganda, perception building, marketing and hate mongering.

Also, there are no friends or foes on Twitter, only interests.
Twitter was never a place "to chill and chat" to me. I was an early adopter as well and used it as a more personal RSS reader. I followed mostly software developers and tech outlets. I honestly enjoyed the mix of 140-character tech discussion and the occasional insights into other devs' work and personal life. At some point however, my personal feed was full of drama, politics, gender, bullshit, nonsense, … It was worse than my Facebook feed. and the platform gave me 0 control over what I see from whom. The best I could do was to follow, hope for the best, unfollow, rinse and repeat. I quit a long time ago, and I don't look back.
One-liners are hard.
