I have been really trying to make #2 happen but it is tough.

The ones who play a certain sport are so good at it that it makes no sense for them to play with me (basketball, tennis, squash) and no one plays the sport that I am good at (soccer)

It is so much easier to stay fit when you have a group that regularly do a common activity for fun. Going to the gym isn't bad, but I won't call the activity fun.
It's not market manipulation to research and publish novel and important business stories.
But sometimes you want to outer join on the ID matching and some other condition, and thats where the JOIN syntax gets more useful, because the 'outer' then obviously applies to a whole series of logic statements that are and/or'd together. If you write reports its not long before you start hitting really obscure joins and conditions and subqueries and so on.
Anecdotally, I see the situation in France (I'm from there). Unemployment is always high.

People have great healthcare, but they are still struggling with mininum income service jobs. They won't be ruined by a cancer diagnosis though.

I don't think any western countries has figured out how to expand the middle class in recent
times without heavy subsidies (in the US, we are effectively subsidizing those jobs with our high costs)
> So basically we're only going to get corporate content from Youtube.

Indeed, I foresee our current internet content supply to converge to what's currently available on television, ie: a very few good shows, but majorly common denominator low quality productions. I hate what television has turned into. Where channels like Discovery would have interesting content now it's only storage wars and other formulaic pulp.
Especially the lasts years there has been an emergence of very good independent Youtube creators focusing on niche topics. I really enjoy those videos. But with this change, where will they go to get their audience and income?

YouTube will be fine. It's big enough to implement enough tech that they can say they're doing what they can. In fact, they've probably had enough there for years.

Most content hosting startups are likely to be too small to need to implement any tech at all, so they're fine as well for now.

The problem is that now it's practically impossible for a startup to scale up. The route to an exit for any startup hosting content and serving the EU is effectively closed, which is going to make raising impossible, which in turn will make developing a solution impossible. This law cements YouTube as the market leader in a way that no one can really challenge. They've been handed a de facto monopoly. That's the problem.
> Lyft's reception after the IPO was quite negative, with the stock falling 30% immediately in the days that followed

Pretty much everyone who invested before the IPO is up on their money. Lyft’s is not a story of a crap company going public. It’s a story of a crap IPO at the wrong price. JPMorgan priced the stock too high, didn’t adequately surveille for bad short selling, and generally numptied up a straightforward process.

I mean even if the oven were perfectly calibrated for air temperature the radiation from the exposed elements would almost always cause this to happen. He’s basically grilled his motherboard not baked it, try baking a cake in that oven and I bet it’s also burned on the top and soggy in the middle.

The obvious solution if you must use that oven is to wrap the board in silver foil first and it might have had a chance.
Just to give you a flavor of the way the main Vampire author does things: Until one or two years ago, not even a binary was freely available on the vampire website, and one had to contact them by email to ask for one; source code was definitely not distributed in any form.

Have you tried the SDCC C compiler? I use it for 8bitworkshop. It has a Gameboy CPU target.
In the current “opaque types” prototype implementation `some` still hides the implementation of the type across module boundaries, meaning it can be changed without recompiling clients. The specific guarantee is that (in a single process execution) each invocation of a some-returning function returns the same concrete type.

You may find that Debian with LXDE+Xfce installed (and the non-free repository enabled, for firmware components) will work quite a bit better than Lubuntu for the laptop you picked as your MacBook Air replacement. Recent versions of *buntu seem to be a bit bloated compared to available alternatives, and this especially matters on older hardware.

That might also keep the vapor from the solder condensing on the oven. I would be worried about using that oven for food in the future. Is apple lead free for it's solder?
This is too reductive a view: companies need to be financially viable to survive long-term but people absolutely found businesses with goals in addition to paying their bills and there's a spectrum of how profitable they need to be — Ubuntu, Red Hat, and Oracle are all Linux vendors but their approaches and degrees of aggressiveness about pursuing revenue vary considerably due to differences in corporate culture.
I did a big heads down on this about 6 months ago as I was writing a paper and needed a ton of sequence diagrams to explain protocols.

PlantUML is a major pain. I didn't know about Mermaid at the time.

Latex has a ton of code for building better charts but they're all very very low level.

Half stevia half sugar. You can use about 2g sugar per cup, which is 8 calories, and have it taste like you used 5-10g sugar. Once down to this level, unless you're having 10+ cups per day, there are far more important calorie sources to optimize for.
No, pretending to be from somewhere else will not change politics or the filtering for all Europeans.

Lighter roasts, and maybe different origins, if you're making your own coffee. The Strength 3 Kenyan and Rwandan coffee in my local supermarket tastes a bit sweeter than the norm to me.

I've always taken coffee with a little bit of milk and no sugar. Not a latte, just a black coffee with a drop of milk at the end to take the edge off. It's not calorie-free, but over the course of a day it adds up to about a small cup of milk, which I can live with.
Ask HN: Why is Real-Time document collaboration difficult to implement?
In Word Online, people can edit in real-time but cannot do things like turn track changes on and off. Google Docs does it but I have a hard time believing MS doesn't have the resources or the motivation. So why is it difficult for them to implement?
I actually once (kind of) fixed a permanent startup blue screen on my years-old LG G3 by putting the motherboard in the oven.

It worked again for ~2 months, which gave me plenty of time to backup all local data. Then the blue screen returned and after trying to bake it again, it would not power on at all anymore.
To add to this: meal habits are important. Try eating 20% slower and more mindfully. Note how full you feel at any given moment, and stop when you're 80% full.
I and many others had great success in "baking" our nvidia graphics cards a couple of years back to resurrect them.
Few months back, there was a story here at HN about someone writing just such game to be played over a SSH connection. There were huge problems with the fact that you cannot reliably detect when the user stops pressing a key.

IIRC, it was an action/arcade game, though, so it might be more tolerable for something not twitch-based.
I like that about the Expanse novels, automatic systems control a lot of the lower level work in battles. Of course humans still come up with the crazy ideas and sort of execute them on a higher level.
Every foodservice place I ever worked in my youth got quite irate when someone worked more than 40 hours, because overtime is a lot more expensive than just hiring another worker.
As strange as this may sound, this technique isn‘t uncommon at all. Many XBox owners used this as a last resort to fix the infamous Red Ring of Death.
yeah, 100%. not everyone can just bounce or put up with a significant amount of downtime between jobs. But still, a petition is a terrible idea in a startup. Its just going to make things worse.

even C-level people need to pay their rent, especially in early stages where its likely the founding c-team is likely compensated mostly in stock.
Ah, the good ol' tantalum caps. Violent ones for sure :)
I am also a classic web developer, still using vanilla javascript and trying to do as much as possible with just html and css. I feel I can solve any problem fast, quick and with minimal amount of code and bugs. For the recent years I have hired a few javascript developers and a common pattern I see is that the reason why they want to use overcomplicated toolset, is because this helps improving their CV so they are easier to sell. CV building is a thing, and developers also want to stay relevant in the future.

For example I went through software developer job listings in my area. Of 100 listings, 40 of them are React specific, 2-3 Angular while maybe 5 mention any kind of frontend development like html/css/jquery. The rest is classical back end positions. There is a HUGE demand for frontend expertise these days.

If you as a consultant want to sell yourself as a kickass rockstar frontend developer, you want as much React experience as possible on your CV. Some will even turn you down because of the fear of damaging their CV by just doing vanilla javascript work.
China’s ‘Fake’ Economic Data: Why I’m Not Concerned
The reason I argue this is in part because of what happened with Nvidia's GeForce 400 series (Fermi). That generation was an absolute dog (heat, power, driver issues, you name it) versus AMD's absolutely fantastic Radeon 5000 architecture.

Despite the faults in Nvidia's cards, they still outsold AMD something like 10:1. Jim from AdordedTV goes into great depth on this strange era of GPU competition and dives deep into the press at the time and retrospective statistics.

"Competitive" is more than just raw performance, it seems.
Go look up the patents on Google Docs!
This all started with angular imho. There was a time when structure, layout and logic were more cleanly separated. Angular blew this up with <ng-xxx> tags (which was a step backwards towards PHP imho) and this has been driven forward by other frameworks since. It surprising to me how so many people can talk about shadow dom but can't name any of the HTML5 apis or even more than a few tags and what they do (much less anything about CSS3).
Most likely. Everyone uses lead free for consumer goods that are also sold in Europe. It’s not worth the supply chain woes to be different.

Despite what everyone says lead free isn’t all that bad.

I'm collecting benchmarks and creating a global one in https://www.pc-kombo.com/benchmark/games/cpu. The best Intel cpus are faster because they have a higher clock. Where the clock is equal Ryzen is minimally slower, and they are cheaper then while having more threads. Regardless, the Ryzen processors reach very good FPS in current games, look at the FPS of the Ryzen 5 2600 for example (https://www.pc-kombo.com/us/benchmark/games/cpu/compare?ids%...).

This is why I wish we had a topics based news aggregator. A site which lists topics and under each topic, you get a list of different headlines and sources ( hopefully from different countries and with different perspectives and ideologies ). That way, we can see what different media groups are saying about the same event.

Google news and other social media used to do this until they got pressured to "localize" the news and favor "authoritative" sources.

What is shocking is how the same event is covered so differently by different countries and media groups. But the only way you would know this is if you actively search for news which is getting more difficult and which hardly anyone does.

It's fun, if you're into that kind of thing.

It's more like building a car in the garage. There's no real need to do, but some people enjoy the process of figuring out how everything fits together.
I’m not aware of Perelman publishing a “a pattern that generates superior risk-adjusted returns".

That type of information is worth millions, and there are many investment firms offering very lucrative positions to those that can identify a pattern that generates superior risk-adjusted returns.

Outside of very rare outliers, it doesn’t seem reasonable to assume that information that will generate outsized returns will be publicly available.
"Popular" is a very strong word for the 580 and Polaris in general; according to the steam hardware survey[0], the 1060 has a bit over 15% of the users while the 580, 480, 570 and 470 don't even reach 3% combined.

Disagree about "conflate". SQL is very geared towards relational semantics.

They may be independent in theory (a stretch), but any non-trivial SQL query (say a medium sized one with 50 lines abd 10 tables) is meaningless without a relational DB underneath.

What Cosmos calls "SQL" is not SQL at all, it lacks almost everything, it just borrows a few keywords. If you cant even do inner joins and left joins and so on between different tables, it is NOT anything close to SQL. Joins is sort of the point of SQL.

> To the contrary, you can view the free market as a parallel system of checks and balances where the people have voice and opinion: your wallet. Yes you can actually "vote" with your wallet in a free market.

As we can see from the way Microsoft and Oracle failed after milking their customers too aggressively, not to mention the way AT&T, Verizon, Comcast, etc. are begging everyone to come back. Yes, you can no-true-Scotsman a claim about those not being free markets but then you're going to have to bring in the essential role of the government in keeping markets from being dominated by large players.

> At the end of the day, if we all stopped using Google Search, Youtube and everyone used adblock to block Google's Ad networks, Google would be toast. Consumers can simply elect to take a different action.

Don't forget giving up Gmail, Google Docs, etc. “if we all” is technically true but really leaves out the degree of effort that it would take to get any significant fraction of people to switch — consider how effective Microsoft and Yahoo! were at competing with Google in those areas and ask yourself what it would take that they lacked.
I agree with you, but I suspect the people in China subjected to these inhumane work hours don't have the option for a job with better working conditions. I would not be surprised in companies were colluding such that the 996 is the default work week.
I've baked components before, only once with limited success.

Several years ago I had a 9800GTX graphics card fan go out, and its core temp rose to 117 Celsius[1]. Eventually it died, and I attempted to bake the card to re-flow broken solder. I'm not sure if that actually fix anything, but the card worked for a bit longer.

Eventually I had to replace it.

You could look at it that way. Hours of time would be spent like this toward the end of the day so why not just go home?

In addition, mindlessly repeating experiments isn't a break.
Admittedly, when I was at Google, I only worked on three different products. However, while there I had no real deadlines. My work was done when it was done. Performance was measured in quality and impact. This was in fact a part of the culture that was communicated to my team on multiple occasions.

With that said, there is some indication from the outside that the culture is changing. It can be difficult to sustain culture over time, especially in the face of massive success.
OK, so any content that wasn't filtered isn't allowed in the EU?

For instance, if in India an Indian uploads a video to a website that doesn't implement EU-compliant filters, that video will get blocked?

How will the EU enforce that? Will they obscure any website that don't implement filters?

I haven't followed the whole thing closely, sorry--but any help in understanding would be appreciated.

It will circumvent the issue - with a chance of VPNs being banned in the future if this method becomes mainstream - but it won't change politics and will force the issue on everyone not savvy enough to find a way around it.

Or maybe even Jeopardy! itself, given the recent news about Trebek. Unlikely, but possible.
The redoing my partner saw was often because an experiment didn't result in what the researcher expected. Rather than try to figure out what went wrong (or why their expectations were wrong), they'd spend lots of time repeating exactly the same thing.
Nah, that is mixing GC with tracing GC, because it is too much to type/say an additional word.

With next-gen xbox, playstation, and Google Stadia all running on AMD they will continue to ship plenty of units on the GPU front. Small market share on discrete GPUs translates to better growth potential, which is the whole point of the article. AMD is already shipping 7nm GPUs, they are just too expensive to be competitive.

As 7nm continues to mature there is significant potential for AMD to grow sales if they are releasing a 2nd gen 7nm product at the same time as Nvidia is releasing 1st gen. Small market share means greater growth potential.

AMD is also in a better position than ever before because of having CPU, GPU, and next-gen custom SOCs consolidated on a single process, which means they are a much higher volume customer for TSMC than ever before, which means priority treatment, and they are manufacturing the broadest range of designs on that node, which means their internal knowledge of it is the best.

3Q is the earliest that they will see any revenue from these products, which is why the are forecasting 2Q decline. 3Q will likely be partial ramp, but 4Q should see a big pop.
We used to "fix" our old XBox consoles by wrapping them in towels and purposely overheating them to get the ?GPU? solder to reflow correctly. With some extra cooling methods added, still works to this day even though it got a red ring of death.
During breaks you can go home as well

What constitutes a breaks of course different for each person.
Maybe some prefer go to gym instead or going for coffee, or simply just strolling around.
What is the incentives for the owner of google docs?

If it i make google docs great/dominate, then firefox, and safari are critical. You would ask hard questions and have deep discussions around dropping support for internet explorer. If someone suggested khtml (picking something old and poorly maintained) would work with just a little effort you would have a serious discussion around just how much effort that takes.

If the incentive is to make google great then things are different. Losing a few Firefox users might well be worth it if you can convert a few others from firefox to chrome. You might even go so far as to needlessly break firefox once in a while to drive your incentive.

I don't know how google is setup. I've seen companies setup both ways. There are downsides to both.
I love AMD, own stock in AMD, but I hope someone can flag this article. There's no content here, just speculation.
The most recent episode of the Motley Fool Money podcast featured an interview with David Kuo in which he said manufacturers are leaving China for other asian countries because wages in China are rising. Rising wages is typically correlated with falling unemployment, which forces employers to provide better working conditions. So I wouldn't be surprised if we started seeing Chinese tech workers moving to employers who treat them with more respect. That will be the end of 996.
The advantage of ARC is that the cost of deallocating is very constant and always happens at the same moment. This helps enormously when you are doing performance sensitive stuff like scrolling over a list of complex cells.

With the Java style of GC the minimum and maximum cost and timing of GC are just not so predictable so in real-world scenarios ARC based apps feel more fluent.
