It's also possible that companies which try to optimize hiring of knowledge workers with varying degrees of talent based on the ethnicity of their name will perform poorly over the long run, so being disadvantaged in the hiring process is actually an advantage for your career as a whole.
As a non-American who has spent some years in the U.S., it fascinates me that you could subject your youth to so many horrors -- student debt, school shootings, not to mention the present administration -- and yet there is this profound thirst for psychological explanations other than 'plenty of young folks are scared of homelessness and hunger'.

The shearing force between the reality of American life and the receding American dream has become just this enormous.

The UI is nearly as responsive as their improved example.

I'm not a React expert, but I do know that browsers defer timeouts until they have time to process them. This can be used to take heavy-hitting functions out of events that block UI interactions. It can also be used for self-throttling recursive IIFEs.

Visual Studio's solution: #pragma lib(foo). That's that problem solved. This is not the big problem.

The big problems are a mix of 3 entangled problems:

- textual substitution by macros with cross-file scope: the behaviour of an included file depends entirely on previous files.

- object memory layout and API are unnecessarily bound together, so you can't change so much as a single function argument without completely recompiling all dependent code.

- a number of things (mostly templates but some strings) are duplicated hugely beacause they're defined in the headers, and then de-duplicated at link time. So compilation ends up disk-bound while the compiler writes out lots of data that will be thrown away.

So, you can change one byte in a header high up the dependency chain and recompile most of your code. Slowly.

Oh and the carriers all insist on using a specific currency conversion table for the day. We had a whole bunch of them. Nobody really defines currency rates. And there are a lot of them.

I already mentioned several hundred of timezones. IIRC all carriers were happy with the same timezone file, amazingly. I think that was because ITA was the first to do one that comprehensively?
This will not yield a minimal set; in a cycle, it is only necessary to remove at least one word. The problem is thus to delete the minimum number of vertices to remove all cycles.

Ask HN: Health Care for All, Physical Standards Upon Graduation
With all the talk on healthcare for all, why aren't their standards required of high school students to be in minimal shape upon graduating? This would also include expanded Physical Education and Health standards taught in school.

Be able to run a mile in under 10 minutes.
Do 30 push-ups and sit-ups in under 2 minutes.

The most basic baseline. If you can't pass these you don't graduate or pay a premium on health insurance.

Completely disagree with this analogy. Hotels have their place, and in so many ways they can be superior to a home rental.

I am the furthest thing from a luddite, but I personally prefer (as I know many others) hotels to Airbnb. There's a consistency to the hotel product that you can't get with Airbnb that I place a premium on, especially for short or last minute stays.

I'm also not really sure why Airbnb is considered a "tech" co in the same way FB or Netflix is. There's is no real time component to the app, and it isn't dealing with billions of people using the app at the same time like a FB or Google is. In the few times I've used Airbnb over the years I'm honestly surprised by how little "tech" really permeates my experience (i.e. its just a basic web app that facilitates the listing + payment transfer + messaging...once I've made the reservation and paid Airbnb's job is essentially done).

Depends on what you mean. There are several 'smart' CDN offerings out there. Amazon Cloudfront Lambda's and https://fly.io/ jump immediately to mind.

The thing is that you really need some specific reason to be suspicious and being a journalist or activist isn't inherently suspicious.

It's not that you can't be suspicious of journalists, you just need an actual reason and there really isn't a clear one here.

Edit: People are also particularly touchy about this because suppression of activists and journalists enables more authoritarian control and human rights abuses to the point where it's a trait of every recent authoritarian government I'm aware of.

Not even close to that easy; platform differences make it a pain to find libraries consistently. (Windows tends to make it most difficult, with Apple close behind for a few libraries.)
Awesome. Thank you for a thorough response. Airsonic looks like just what I want, too. I have a FreeNAS system and would love to centralize my music catalog there.

Over the years I've ripped my CDs maybe 4 or 5 times. I used to have a PowerBook G4 and an early iPod, so I ripped to M4A/AAC. Nothing else played that, so then I went MP3 with storage limitations of the day dictating bitrate. Now, I just want to rip to FLAC and never deal with that again.
Well I don't care if the developer payed the certificate, and I don't see why someone that develops FOSS should pay money for something that doesn't bring to him any of that money back. At least for open source software certificates should be offered for free, in my opinion.

Also the fact that you are required to have a corporation, why? If I develop again an open source software I need to register a corporation just to deploy that software on Windows the correct way? That is total bullshit for me, just let me sign my software like is done on other platforms for nothing or a very small fee and done.

Hmm, in my city (LA), one Republican (Riordan) and later Democratic mayors (Hahn and Villaraigosa) have strongly supported charter schools, and the results (after two decades plus) are decidedly mixed. I used to be a moderate supporter of charters, basically for the reasons you mention, but the experiment has generally failed.

So there was some success and there was some failure? Urban public schools seem to be a failure overall. Shouldn't we see an experiment that yielded some successes as a success in gaining information?

Basically, oversight of a network of charter schools is really hard, so there will be bad charter schools that "look good" from the outside. It's hard for parents, even involved parents, to understand this before their kids graduate, so there's no good corrective for charters that are siphoning money off, or providing poor educational outcomes.

This seems to be a case where market pressures suffer from a too-long feedback loop, and information about outcomes is too hard to acquire.

I think this applies to schools, period. No, there's no good corrective which guarantees a parent can use to put their kid into the right school, outside of moving to a good neighborhood. (And even there, there's no guarantee.) The information loop is going to take generations to work out. So long as the institutions last over several generations, that will at least be possible.

Having worked on a farm, I can confirm that chickens are unsympathetic and occasionally cannibalistic, especially when large numbers live together. (We had one case where eggs were getting eaten, and discovered the culprit one day with yolk on its beak.)

I used to work for Pearson Longman, and one of their USPs was that their defining vocabulary was significantly smaller than the main competitors, namely OUP and CUP. Longman's was just over 2000 (about 2100 IIRC), whereas OUP's was approx 3000.

Even then, one is rather constrained and definitions frequently cross-referenced other words to bootstrap the definition.

Thanks for pointing out the IDL. That tells a lot more about the API.

It's good to know that the state tracker is bit more refined than what is required for something like OpenGL.

>Yes, there is some CPU overhead there for sure, but it's not yet clear how significant it is. Keep in mind that WebGPU has to validate the states, which is roughly the same complexity as deriving those states in the first place, hence our decision to do so.

One of the benefits of prebuilding the frame as a graph ahead of time is that one can do vast majority of the validation ahead of time, thus making the heavy operation be explicit for the user. Also the validation happens only once, instead of every frame.

Just like when you bind pipeline you do not have to again validate that all of the shaders etc are valid. Just that it's valid for this renderpass etc. In OpenGL one has to validate the graphics pipeline state after every change to it, whereas in WebGPU it's enough to validate most of it on creation. Similar thing applies to building the state transitions ahead of time.

> Currently, users can create resources and not care about their lifetimes.

For some reason I assumed that if there is a createTexture there ought to be destroyTexture for it. But indeed there is not. I have a few questions pertaining to this.

How does it know I'm not going to need a texture anymore? If it has to keep the data valid for eternity it will at the very least have to store it to ram or disk because it never knows if I'm going to submit a command that references it again.

This sounds to me that some applications where lots of assets are streamed in will explode in memory usage. Or then the user has to do manual pooling, which can be even more difficult and bug prone.
> Let’s try to give people a chance. Let’s judge people as individuals.” That was the great achievement of the 20th century—to make progress there.

The FAQ includes a lot of support for what seems like the wrong hill to die on.

Here’s my thought process:

- the GNU Parallel author(s) want/wants people to use and contribute to it.

- they think that most users are academics who write papers and that potential users will find the project after reading the citation, which may or may not be true

- they include a nagware message that “reminds” users to cite the software

- despite the message being controversial and being the subject of the #1 comment in an otherwise unrelated HN thread about the software in general, an FAQ is written to back up the existence of this message

This brings me to the question of whether the inclusion of this message acts more as a deterrent to potential contributors and users. I agree with the motivation, but the means feels petty and undercuts the original goal.
Decoupling doesn't have anything to do with managing infrastructure. It means that the front end and the backend are communicating through an api, not a DB. This way you are not obliged to use the front end rendering of you don't want to. It's a special case of a headless CMS.
ok, you concede that taxes are high at both the local and state level, and your solution is to raise them on everyone, at the federal level? why should the good folks in Hawaii, Texas, Ohio, etc., foot the bill for your shitty transit that no one uses (look up the ridership stats)?

public transit gets shutdown not because it's unrealistic--anything is feasible if you throw enough money at it--but precisely because it's a massive waste of taxpayer money.

California just learned the hard way, but at least Newsom had the balls to call-it-quits on the idiotic high speed rail project. well at least you'll be able to go from Merced to Bakersfield or whatever it is. how many billions were spent on that again?

FYI Linkerd's Grafana dashboards are purely additive. If you don't like them, ignore them.

Every Asian I know in IT works ridiculous hours compared to their white counterparts. Ditto Indians. Americans in general (IT can be different) want to work their 8 and bail. I also fall into this category. I have a union mentality towards work. It's also why I demand an hourly rate over a salary. If I have to work, you are paying me. Texas employers seem happy to accommodate me. My wife, who is medical, also demanded and got an hourly rate, and she's expensive.
Back when the terms CISC and RISC came out they were terms for whole collections of traits that inevitably all came in one package or the other. But since the 80s the world has become more complex. The coherent philosophy behind RISC has ceased to make sense for the highest end computers just as CISC had ceased to make sense for them when RISC rolled around.

We don't need to reduce the number of instructions to fit the whole processor on a single piece of silicon any more. With the decoupling of the processor and memory clocks and the introduction of caches load-store is a less pressing matter than it was. And the complexity of a processor is dominated by the fiendish complexity of executing operations out of order while still appearing in order to all outward appearances, even in the face of interrupts.

The legacy of these styles is still with us in the ISAs that were defined back then and the complexity of decoding an ISA can still make a small but noticeable difference. It can even have security implications when a sequence of bytes could be read as one of two valid instruction streams depending on where you start reading. But most of the architectural complexity of a modern processor has very little to do with the ISA and whether the architecture it was originally written for was RISC or CISC.

One factor that gets buried in the abstract debate around school choice is the practical consideration of transportation. If you want to give families real choice in choosing among schools for their children, you have to remove transportation costs from the family's decision making. Otherwise, there is a “choice” of one or maybe two schools for the families who are ostensibly most in need of choosing a school other than the closest one.

We see this in my kids' focus option school. Families from anywhere in the city can enroll their children in a lottery for admission. The lottery is actually weighted to favor lower income families, yet the school is in the top tier for median income. There are a number of factors that play into why this is the case, but among the most frequently cited is that lower income families have fewer resources to get their kids to school and back. Yet these are the families that by and large live in areas where the neighborhood schools tend to fail to deliver quality education, the families who would benefit from having a real choice.

Unless a municipality is willing to convey a child from any home to any school and back (and in a timely manner), vouchers will never meaningfully address education quality. Rich families will send their kids to the handful of high performing schools, and everyone else gets stuck with the closest choice.
I was a little disheartened as well, but that video was made early on in development. There was and still is time for optimization. I don't think the hardware is incapable of a smooth user experience. It's a software problem.

* We've lowered expectations and extended adolescence so much that we no longer expect 18 year olds to be mature and capable adults, which shouldn't be the case.*

I'm not even sure this is the case. We (Americans) don't allow an 18 year old to have any sort of alcohol without potentially ruining their adult lives. We didn't let folks vote until 21, but there was an issue with drafts and things. My mother remembers being excited that she was going to vote at 18 instead of 21 - my mother is almost 60. It wasn't that long ago that we didn't allow women to get loans without a spouse, brother, or father signing for it. Women were never really proper adults.

American parents can still be pretty decisive on a college student's ability to go to college simply by refusing to release tax returns to the student. I'm not even sure folks can go to school without them. They certainly won't get loans.

A young person's life is just barely their own at 18, and they don't have full rights of adulthood.
