This letter follows some recent news coverage about easy access to pro-suicide, pro-selfharm, and pro-anorexia content online.

The advice from mental health professionals is not to remove all of this content. It can provide a route into support for some people. So he's wrong to suggest that all of it needs to be "purged".

But there is disquiet at the fact that there is so much content on mainstream platforms, that it is so easily available, and that a lot of it makes no attempt to provide harm reduction messages.

The lead for suicide prevention in the UK, Professor Louis Appleby, says this: https://twitter.com/ProfLAppleby/status/1089528954158043136

"Self-harm images on Instagram just part of problem we need to address. In our national study, 1/4 under 20s who died by suicide had relevant internet use & most common was searching for info on methods"

and this: https://twitter.com/ProfLAppleby/status/1089525522084884480

"Important change in political/social attititude. Just a few years ago, internet seen as free space, no restrictions, complete lack of interest in #suicideprevention from big companies. Now mood is for regulation, social responsibility, safety."

People on HN sometimes say "this law came out of the blue".

This letter is the early warning that regulation is coming if the industry fails to self regulate.

If we ever have an industrial revolution or massive productivity gains again it will most likely involve autonomous machines for things like farming, construction, delivery, transport, etc. All of these things depend on increases in power efficiency or performance. It is possible that we are one or two "doublings" away from achieving this in a mobile package and then suddenly moore's law stops.

For example Tesla is betting on conventional cameras and tries to overcome their shortcomings with computationally intensive machine vision. Tesla's custom chips allows them to have more processing power which means they can install more high resolution cameras and other sensors.

Same way you make almond milk. Soak it in water, and after an amount of time compress it to "milk" it.
I stopped drinking regular milk actively more than a year ago. At work we have soy milk which is good enough, but Oatly is definitely the gold standard milk replacmenet for me. Unfortunately I am finding that in Edinburgh cafés and other establishments are struggling to find suppliers that supply Oatly. This has resulted in a lot of places using other brands of oat milk which are universally terrible, so now asking for oat milk in your coffee is a gamble. As I understand it Oatly's methods are patented. Upon finding this out I even tried to buy shares in Oatly, but unfortunately they aren't publically traded.
I am interested in the stats error here. If there are 100 balls in a bag, 10 of each rainbow color and 30 blank, and I tell you 3 of the green balls have property X, while 10 total of the balls in the bag have property X.

You blindly draw a ball from the bag; do you know anything about the likelihood of that ball having property X? You now inspect it and find it’s green. Do you now know anything different about that likelihood? If I offered you “pay $100 to win $900 if you drew a property X ball, with the option to double your wager after seeing the color”, you would be happy indeed to see that you’d drawn a green ball and would double your wager.

Regardless of the colors, ratios, and desirability of property X, it seems to me like you do know something new about the likelihood after learning the color.

It also seems to hold if there are 300 million balls, 10 balls with property X, and 3 of those are green, just at a strong cause to believe “this specific ball does not have property X” overall (such as the case in the people examples you gave).

Oatly is brilliant to make cappuccinos with: the foam is very stable and tastes great, unlike many other milk substitutes in my opinion.

But unfortunately it clogs the cappuccinatore of our Jura coffee machine after a few cups...

I hope once it's restored they put it on a wall somewhere beside a modern table so people can see the progress that's been made since.
but microcoding has existed for ever and while uops is probably a very specialized form of microcoding, it still not a new thing.

Also I do not think uops are fixed size as IIRC they can take a variable number of slots in the uop cache, and fix size instructions is pretty much one of the only two remaining differentiating RISC features. The internal x86 microarchitecture is also not load-store, the other one RISC feature, at least in the fused domain, and as far as I understand, in the uop cache.

So, even if we want to abuse the RISC term to describe the microarchitecture, I do not think it cleanly apply to the usual x86 implementations.

edit: this is a pet peeve of mine. It seems I have this discussion every 6 months on HN :)
GFE?
The article didn't well on Dark Silicon but the idea is that as you can fit more structures on a chip but can't light up them all for power dissipation reasons it makes sense to include more and more specialized structures you only use for some purposes. With the rise of GPUs and specialized co-processor for things like media decoding and encryption we're certainly well on our way there. It would be nice to have an intermediate between the two in more places, like the Hexagon VLIW DSP that Qualcomm puts in its Snapdragon DSPs. And of course there are the even more specialized matrix convolution processors that everybody is designing and NVidia is now putting in its GPU.

I think the real question is if it will make sense to have FPGAs in wider use. Certainly not until the programming model improves...
As a developer who really struggles with design, this is the last thing I expected to hear from this. Thanks a lot!

Everything is shipped.

The difference here is that the last mile is also done efficiently by package deliverers, rather than in a car that is empty on the way to the store, and has 1-4 bags in it on the way back.

I would also like this to reach retail, for a variety of reasons; the ecological cost of shipping is last on that list.
There's an add to home screen button, but it's buried deep in the share sheet and the average user doesn't know about it.

We already have a "X company has an app" banner API on iOS, it seems fitting that webapps have an option to match.

And the Safari provided "X company has an app" banner is a lot less annoying than any third party "HEY WHY AREN'T YOU USING OUR APP" banners in that it goes away when you scroll down instead of being fixed to the top of your screen. If a native feature can keep people from making a shittier version and sticking it all over, then I vote yes.
Maybe we should spend a few thousand years coming up with a compact, information-dense manner of expressing thoughts. We could call these individual units something like "glyphers" or something, and we could combine them into more meaningful expressions.

Text is a graphical, visual representation. While there are sometimes alternate ways of expressing things, this idea that text is not visual is weird. "Non-textual" representations is better, because we already have a rich, complex capability in good ole symbols.

This doesn't seem so hard to understand. In the limit, you can see that an employer can't keep paying someone who is sick all the time and who is not working. The employer is providing a guideline about the amount of sick time it can accommodate before the situation becomes untenable.

Sure but it has been mine and theirs. Like I said, we're all posting anecdata, there's no real science going on here.

Well, I ran/walked just over 2000 miles in 2014 with another 1400 in 2015 on largely three pairs of shoes[1] with no new issues (I have a long standing bust knee from 2003.)

This is awesome! I work at a company where we have to abstract away from multiple services like this. We face some interesting challenges and are constantly learning from our experiences. I think you will have some similar challenges and would love to hear your/HN community's thoughts on how some of the issues would be tackled.

We are basically providing an API on top of multiple services which may work their own way and have some idiosyncrasies.

- I do not believe there is a specification/standard that is being followed by all libraries (i.e: Do not think something like OpenID Connect exists for these). Will we always be able to provide this API? What if we want to add a service that requires slight adjustments?

- How will we monitor and update our implementations when a single service is updated?

Edit: Formatting.

Thanks!
You'd definitely notice the difference. Text is much sharper on my 4k screen, regardless of its size.

A DSA is only going to be an order of magnitude or two more performant than a general computer on any given process node. They'll certainly slow down at the same time general purpose CPUs slow down. The thing is it makes more sense to design and include them in a world where transistors are potentially getting cheaper without getting better because a finite amount of engineering effort will be stretched across a longer timeframe.
Pure Data, VVVV, they have shown that data-flow programming works. They even occasionally look like circuits. Max/Msp, Reaktor, luna-lang, they show there is real demand for it.

I hope more people bring those languages into the rest of the programming communities.
Isn't that debatable? Actually, it's debatable what your statement means. What's value? How much you make per time unit? Or, if you live pay check to pay check, maybe time is more valuable than when you're rich, because if you don't invest that time unit, you won't be able to pay rent?

This never ceases to puzzle me. I thought yuppie framework jockeys love to travel. Don't they ever find themselves at some remote locale, try to check in on things, and realize that their site runs like pure ass outside of costal North America? Do they just not care?

Simplicity really can be a class issue. Lots of developers seem to write code with their own demographic in mind, rather than the real people who have to put up with their bullshit.
Grab bag of miscellaneous thoughts on this topic:

- Visual computing is pretty heavily used, unreal engine, blender, houdini, etc. All have a very similar node based visual programming system. It seems to work pretty well (better than text) for most of what they use it for. I think because of the ease of jumping in the middle and making small understandable changes.

- Many programming languages today have a format that is like <tree of files, each containing> <set of items, each containing> <list of expressions>. It would be nice if that <set of items> step was treated as an unordered set instead of an ordered one, with editors having a better understanding of how to bring up relevant elements of the set onto your screen at the same time. Split pane editors, "peeking" in editors at code definitions, etc. hint at how this should work, but I don't feel like they do it as well as possible.

- A small amount of "visual augmentation" might benefit most programming languages, I'm not sure I can explain this better than linking to a few images of what emacs auctex package does to latex http://lh6.ggpht.com/_egN-3IJO0Xg/SpIj6AtHOTI/AAAAAAAABj8/O1... https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/42/Emacs%2B...
When there is a standard and someone doesn't follow it, it is said that the standard has been violated.

It follows that when someone implements functionality that doesn't follow POSIX, POSIX has been violated.

Is that not something that varies per person? I've always been terrible at endurance but decent at short term power, and now that I'm training a bit, it seems I'm mostly getting more power, but not really more endurance. Not for horrible things like running, at least.

What I've found is that milk-alternatives (and actually, even regular milk often times) are extremely varied. One brand of almond milk can taste completely different to another.

The best personal example of this is I hate virtually all versions of soy milk, except for Bonsoy (plentiful in Australian cafes/supermarkets, unfortunately difficult to find in the US).

That's why I don't really believe someone when they say "I hate soy|almond|whatever milk".
It has more fat/oil in to help with frothing, I think that's the only difference. Also barista != barrister, those are two quite different jobs!
AFAIK given the Ledger's on-screen confirmation process it really doesn't matter what's the medium of communication between the host machine and the device. It could as well be sent via unencrypted http routed through China, then Russia and then an NSA server all while your host device is heavily backdoored.

The supply chain attacks/evil maid attacks are a much bigger issue, as pointed out in other comments.

exactly, and "milk" is a good descriptor for consumers: a pale liquid with some viscosity and a mild taste that can be used in the same ways cows milk is used. Usually the only people who complain about calling it "milk" are people who sell dairy products (not saying OP is one of them).

Looking at the results, they say that hardware tag-checking for integer arithmetic and register windows for fast method calls were the two most important features of the design, nearly doubling performance.

I wonder if that still holds today, with the memory wall so dominant that CPUs tend to be stalled quite a bit (therefore enough time to do tag checking in software).
Judging from their quality issues, I'm not so sure they're attracting the "world's very best developers" any more.

I don't know blueprint, but I'm wondering if after some time using it you begin to pick up patterns from looking at zoomed out code. One thing that strikes me is that each of these "nightmare" examples has a very definitive and recognizable form. There are certain structures that one can pick out and recognize between diagrams. It reminds me of being able to discern nested loops and long switch statements in traditional text code minimaps. It might be the case that these code maps look like a spaghetti mess to the untrained eye, but the variety of structure in the code allows skilled developers to zoom in on a bit of code the way you can zoom in on your house in Google Earth without any help.
