The problem is not direct access to memory and pointers as such, every systems programming language needs to provide such features.

The problem with C, versus other systems programming languages it that it its pointers, implicit conversions of array into pointers, integer operations, string and array bounds don't have any kind of validation.

On other systems languages disabling such validations is explicit.

C is like JavaScript in the browser, we have to put up with it because UNIX clones won the market of commodity OSes.

C on its own without UNIX, would have failed in the market.

On the desktop world it was already being replaced by C++, Smalltalk, VB, Delphi and 4GL before FOSS based on UNIX and C started to be widespread.

Unfortunately it is impossible to convince people on pure UNIX based OSes to use something else.

Fortunately, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Sony, Nintendo are able to set which programming languages one is allowed to use on their platforms and C is on the way out on their SDKs.

That's certainly important to note. Though in this case the game is done already and basically "release" quality. I think they did the same thing for TIS-100 as well; Early Access for a bit even though the game is done and 99% bug-free.
Here's a book tip.

> The type of personal integration we attain – or the effective lack thereof – depends on what possibilities our life situation offers us for the development of autonomy. It is a distorted development that is the root cause of the pathological and, ultimately, evil element in human beings.

> The struggle for autonomy heightens our aliveness. Insofar as the socialization process blocks autonomy, however, this process engenders the evil it attempts to prevent. If parental love is so distorted that it demands submission and dependence for its self-confirmation, social adjustment turns into a test of obedience and the child’s efforts to comply bring with them the loss of genuine feelings. The human being then becomes the true source of evil.

This had never occurred to me as something someone might do.

Eating fresh vegetables and fruits all day is glorious, not miserable. Foods like legumes, seitan, tempeh, tofu, nuts, and mushrooms are all excellent sources of protein and can even be made to taste very similar to meat. Since I stopped eating meat there are a few tastes that I'll miss like bluefin tuna, soft-shell crabs, etc. but overall it's not difficult.
"But also that so much drama exists in such small community."

As a lover of small communities ... this part is bad.

In a vacuum, every bit of news is inflated. So the smallest thing becomes something to talk about.

I find European small communities are the right size - but also the right distance i.e. there are others close by, and usually a city not too far off.

In Midwest North America and Australia it's really very isolated.

Yeah, that is my though since I used Caml Light in the university, quite a while ago.

Specially since adding to what you mentioned, those languages were compiled since the early days.

It all boils down to lack of love from OS vendors.

Even nowadays, F# is still the black swan of .NET languages, with less tooling support that C++ gets.

So I came to appreciate the small additions we get in Java, C#, C++ to get closer to FP kind of programming than expecting a radical change.
You can almost treat the 6502 as if it had 256 registers.

Mainstream nutrition fads clearly were. A big part of of those fads were about lay generalization of what science supported for very specific diseases as general advice. Another big part was commercial propaganda from food vendors.
>"No, no, no! It says the model is powerful enough to compute any computable function. This is where the optimality of universal measures comes from."

Then the model must be whatever function it is computing/approximating for that case. Otherwise I can't make sense of what you keep saying. You must be using "model" in a sense that is so general as to have no meaning to me.

>"Equation 8 is presenting the binomial model as an example that is different from the universal machine model."

Ok, where is an actual probability is calculated from the 'universal machine model"? That is all I want to see at this point (which was the original topic). I want to see some sort of real life phenomenon for which this procedure calculates a probability, so I can tell what it means. Not a general proof or something like that, some real data or simple data generating process.

Yes, isn't it a weird thing. It was meant as "retaliation" for Western sanctions against Russia, but nothing became any better after it. Not that different from the "trade war" that's going on between China and the US these days.
How are you disadvantaged?

A majority of the indian economy is in the unorganized sector - and India has large tools to ensure that we recover taxes via transaction taxes.

All this does is demolish that sector - and thus harm the larger economy on which the organized sector depends.

Wishes and horses - we may want the whole sector to be organized and transparent - but this isn't going to happen quickly.

Its going to take time, and gradual improvement in laws AND in understanding/education + convenience for compliance.

Theres an optimal path, and nothing else.

Where is they citation of Al Gore claiming the arctic will be ice free? Everything in that source is prefaced with terms like "could Be" and "as soon as", which you seem to be interpreting as a complete certainty. If I said I had cancer and could die as early 2018 then I wouldn't be wrong on New Years day 2019.

Where's the citation of the Statue of Liberty being underwater? Even with an ice free arctic this wouldn't happen.

How about using a database engine with built in horizontal sharding to distribute a big database to multiple users in smaller pieces, just like bittorrent but with query-capabilities.

Thanks to the recent big-data nosql craze this should be easy to find off the shelf. As example i know MongoDB has all this built in, not sure it is designed with untrusted nodes in mind but otherwise fits all requirements.

Was this study funded directly or indirectly (through a bunch of shell research organizations / industry bodies) ?

What sustained the costs of the study?

Without knowing the funding situation, what's the point debating about this study?

Skeptical me wonders if this was funded by industry that has been affected badly by sodium horror stories, and subtly plugs in potassium as a healthier alternative.

Bush and Cheney promised war that would not end in our lifetime, or our children's lifetime, and I and many others took that to mean it's intended to be eternal. With varying intensity, but no moment of no war or potential external threat. Bush also said we're either cool with that, or we're with the terrorists. So while 1984 will not be built in one day, but it was pretty much completely outlined in one day, and we're on track.
Has there been any commercial use case for graphene yet?

I feel as though I've been hearing about its potential constantly for many years, but can't recall any commercial use cases yet.

In New Zealand, The Seagull has become an endangered species, even though there are lot of them. "Because it's a species that's quite long-lived it can take 100 years before you see a significant change in the numbers. As long as the adults aren't being killed, it will be a long, slow decline. Seagulls can live up to 30 years."

Along those lines, as someone who just programs as a hobby and not a career, these games are just as much fun as any side project. They're a puzzle that uses similar logic, but I never feel like it's wasted time, since a lot of programming hobbies are "wasted time" in that they are fun for me to work on and sometimes produce something tangible, but it's mostly just about messing around with something new.
Mistakes that can't be unmade. They happen only once.

I've seen one flying backwards on an air-show. It has an extremely low stall speed.
Interestingly, I liked the Spacechem the most (probably because the program is represented in the most visual form of all their games, and it has excellent music and it's very calming to watch a resulting solution), although I didn't finish the last optional puzzle and any of the expansions.

I would love to go back and finish those, but what holds me back is that I would have to replay the whole game. All the tricks I learned about how to play it I have already forgotten.

Umm... what? Are you sure you're replying to the correct thread?

> All this does is demolish that <unorganized> sector - and thus harm the larger economy on which the organized sector depends.

Wrong, this converts a large part of the unorganized sector to organized. Contrary to your assertion, this has helped include the large unorganized sector in the growth story of the country. I believe this is why we're seeing record economic growth.

> but this isn't going to happen quickly.

OK, doesn't mean we shouldn't try to help speed it up.
You said general purpose, which X, Y, and SP most certainly are not. You can't do much math ops with X and Y; SP is even more restricted.

If we're being more generous then EXP clearly wins over the 6502 because it has two registers that can be used interchangeably. T's only failing is its propensity for being overwritten by TEST.

EXAs also have attached memory in the form of a file. Accessing that memory takes a "few" more cycles than it takes the 6502 to access the zero page. But it's there none the less.
They've been releasing games this way for a while. Early Access with most of the pieces in place, with some polish on graphics, balance, and music for a few months before it's all finalized. Shenzhen I/O and Opus Magnum were done that way for sure.
Efficiency testing of appliances (eg. Dishwashers) only tests the default mode.

That's why all dishwashers have a mode which takes 4 hours and does a lousy job. It's the mode that only uses 3 drips of water and a sip of electricity.
I guess its subjective by what they mean by "the Internet has less than half as much data". I imagine what existed on file sharing sites was more (if that counts). As of 2007, I had 1 TB of specific types of content, which would have been a tiny tiny fraction of what was on sites like morpheus/kazaa at the time in 2004.
Dylan from AssemblyAI here.

We're surprised to see ourselves on HN tonight -- but if you do try out the API I would love to see what you think! Thanks for your interest.

DeepSpeech is an awesome open source project, and we absolutely support open source speech-to-text. We're going to be open sourcing parts of our stack in the future as well.

We're a lot more accurate on real-world data (like phone calls, podcasts, accents, noise, etc.) than the current DeepSpeech model. We're actually less accurate on LibriSpeech Clean than what DeepSpeech reports, but we've found Libri Clean isn't very representative to real-world data and as a result isn't a great benchmark.

We're planning to put out more thorough benchmarks comparing our API to other services (including DeepSpeech, Kaldi, and CMU Sphinx) in about 1-2 weeks. If you want to email me at dylan[at]assemblyai.com I can send you the benchmarks once we have them.

Another thing that's hard to do is host RNN based models like DeepSpeech in production at scale. It gets expensive fast, since you need to do inference on GPUs to keep your latency time down. We spend a lot of time optimizing our infrastructure to keep costs down, so there's a good chance we can host RNN based models cheaper than if you were to do it on your own since we specialize in this.
It seems weird to suggest that tofu is less processed than butter. I suppose if you're buying the most high-end expensive tofu it might be a bit better but from what I know of how it's made I don't find it very appealing.

I'd say it's a lot easier to make butter in your kitchen than it is tofu.

There's a really good book about the food industry called "Eat Your Heart Out" by Felicity Lawrence. I already thought tofu was a plasticky non-food but that book put me off it for life.

>>Cash transactions are happening with smaller builders, but even they are finding it difficult to find buyers with a lot of liquid cash.

Its impossible to register a property in Karnataka, without a PAN card/number. So in short for high value transaction its already possible to have tax accountability. Same with jewelry. The question is that of enforcement. You don't need to demonetize anything for these things.

>>Perhaps, but along with the introduction of GST, I now find even traditional traders who usually prefer not to give a bill with a sale (for construction items, cement, steel, electrical wires, equipment, etc) are insisting on a GST bill. It was a really big surprise to me.

What is going to be a bigger surprise to you is discovering a few years down the lane that a full scale parallel unregulated economy is in motion.

In fact that is already the case with a lot of small time things now.

>>Also, this is a political masterstroke.

>>Most of the country is below middle class and hardly every see a 2000 Rs. note.

What do you think the year is? 1985?

The rich don't exactly keep their money beneath their mattress these days.

The solution to this is to mandate that the car have built in emissions modelling.

The car itself must keep track of how much Nox it has produced and how many miles it's driven. The ratio must stay below some legal limit (or you pay an extra pollution tax to go over it)
If we completely drop the utilitarian approach, then we must admit our goal is not to help or improve, but to act morally superior. Righteous grandstanding on the world stage has a track record of failure to inspire change, or even causing conflict. If our goal is simply to keep our hands clean then perhaps we shouldn't take an interest in human rights or business.

You cannot personify nations for many reasons, the foremost of which is their sovereignty. No country is beholden to another beyond war and economic sanctions. The amazing period of peace and prosperity the Earth is experiencing since WW2 can be directly attributed to the establishment of diplomatic channels and using them..

The Age of Cretinism
I really hope n-gate.com goes easy on this one.
Nostradamus predicted it would last 27 years, with the “Union of the great Trumpet” eventually emerging victorious, followed by “1000 years of peace”.

As a child I tried to decipher what the “Union of the great Trumpet” is, since it corresponds to no alliance I know of, and hypothesised that it would be the alliance of U.S.A., Europe and Russia. Since it’s known that Nostradamus misspelled Hitler as “Hister”, now I’m wondering if “Trumpet” isn’t a misreading of Trump. Nostradamus was French, so Trump might easily be transposed to “Trumpet”.

(I’m not in any way affiliated with the president of the United States.)

Did you process any of it? Clearly not. Don't say my argument is weak if clearly none of it registered in your conscious mind.
well that was kinda disappointing - to me it looked like the players float slightly above the grass rather than in it and they leave no footprints nor disturbance. Now of course its damn nigh impossible with current hardware to do footprints and disturbance but, all the same, was hoping all the extra umph of modern hardware would get us there sooner.
Powerful electric motors are getting much much lighter.

Especially with liquid cooling, you could get a 100hp peak (20 hp continuous) motor inside 30 lbs if that was a design goal.

Motors for cars will get lighter as price competition pushes for designs involving less mass of raw materials.
