I’m about 1/3rd of the way through this book and it’s very good so far. I won’t read this article because I like to be surprised and hate spoilers but I think the book would be a great read for the HN crowd.
I think 13% hazelnuts, 8.7% powdered milk and 7.4% cocoa[0], are quite a lot more than "traces". Sure it could be better, but then you could say that about 90% of products in the average supermarket.

I just tried that 8 Values thing. Interesting, but it depended too much on existing buzzwords and quotes, and contained a number of false dichotomies. E.g.

"From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs". If you didn't know the quote then it might sound like a good description of a modern welfare state, so only people with strongly libertarian views would reject it. However most people who recognise it as a quote from Marx will reject it because they are not Marxists.

"It is more important to have a balanced budget than to look after everyone" (quote from memory). False dichotomy: if a country fails to have a balanced budget over the long term then it won't be able to look after anyone.

Does Aubrey talk about this topic ? I only read on his work and SENS.
Trump is embarrassing, but he has dramatically improved the ability for the wealthy to abuse the poor via policy and regulatory changes.

The very wealthy (and even those of moderate means) genuinely believe they pulled themselves up by their bootstraps and made their own success, completely blind to the fact their incredibly wealthy or successful parents put them there.
After that ISP award thing came out it finally convinced me to look into DoH and give it a go. So I ended up setting up a Pi Hole this weekend running a local DoH-to-DNS proxy and then changing the DNS settings on my router to point to the Pi Hole. This also means my hosts file continues to work if I need it, and all* the programs running on my PC are transparently going through DoH without them being any the wiser.

The setup was a little bit fiddly to get going, but I'm now super happy with it. As a sidenote, it was interesting to see how effective uBlock Origin already was because I thought the Pi Hole's blacklists weren't working at first!

*I imagine I'm not catching every single one of the DNS lookups on my network, but I bet it's now a large percentage of them.

Definitely exciting to observe from afar, but it can be jarring to try to keep up with as someone who only occasionally dabbles in it for web stuff.

Slight hyperbole, but waking up one morning to find the whole of Identity rewritten as razor pages was a bit of a curve ball.

Edit to add: I'm not so sure about "lack of adoption", though. I'd temper that as lack of adoption in the US/valley. Europe, the UK and Australia seem to have quite a bit of .net core stuff going on.

Looks interesting. My former colleagues worked on porting osx to l4 more than a decade ago.

That still doesn't look like a microkernel based, multi server os to me and does not claim to exhibit those of touted advantages. This reminds me more of dresdens live demo cd from about 2006. Great stuff, but more of a virtualisation layer than an os.

I'd like to see it stand up.
Yeah, you're right, I'm all for pragmatism when it's just a small site not in active development. I just didn't want people getting the idea that this is a good practice. It's a hack, and a dangerous one at that, but hacks can be okay depending on the circumstance.

It makes less than zero sense to me as to why a BSD programmer would even consider wanting Microsoft .NET frameworks, libraries or software on BSD. You have as good or better tools and languages already there. Perhaps in the off chance of porting a program written with .NET but those are rare and the only people who seem to want this are Microsoft and Windows/.NET programmers who also happen to use BSD.

I have been programming FreeBSD systems for 15 years--actually longer--and it's never crossed my mind to even once think about using .NET or any Microsoft product. Makes no sense at all.
Ah I truly thought this course was about something else and incredibly post modern, I read the headline too literally.

Best of luck!
Really? If it's such a great example of a multi server, microkernel based os why isn't it used for everything that needs to be secure?

I've been hearing QNX as the one word rebuttal for why is not getting traction for 15 years. Still hasn't got traction, afaict.
Could they combine this technology with multi-junction cells to yield further efficiency gains?
This is one critique I share with the author. Strategy consultants seem to be in an ivory tower because they care about giving a data-backed recommendation. However, they do need to finalize the feedback loop by measuring to what extent their advice was:

- implemented

- what effect it had on the people in the organization afterwards

- a good decision in hindsight

There are some strategy consultants on here. I am curious as to why this does not seem to happen. Strategy consulting would be so much more awesome if the feedback looped was done in its entirety.
We just moved into .NET Framework 4.7.1 for greenfield projects. All regular .NET libraries and Visual Studio designers just work out of the box.

And yes it was a huge mess, I see it as result of internal politics how Windows dev was supposed to move forward after that whole Longhorn vs Vista, which eventually lead to WinRT.

Eventually we will be coming back to where we started with .NET 5.

And the migration would have been easier if they just did the improvements into an increasing way.

Rule of thumb, always wait and don't jump into new tech just because.
I don't think any ISP can really be trusted, in most countries, since they are subject to arbitrary government demands. In Australia, for example, that includes data retention, censorship, and assistance with any kind of spying that may be demanded.
That rule can be used to justify a lot of content that doesn't belong here. Reading the discussion here is like reading a forum for political scientists discussing the tradeoffs between strong and weak typing.
So can anybody explain why did they decide to split Python into python3 and python3-pip packages?

Sure, that's why i do not propose to take referendums for everything, people give their votes to representatives who work hard to have informed opinions. The difference is that the vote can be changed anytime, and that on specific issues about which voter cares, the representatives vote can be overruled. Even if this overruling doesn't happen very often, the possibility of that will help the elected individual to keep voters interests at heart.

What about your Intel CPU being at the mercy of Minix 3 to validate its execution state, better?
To be fair, people said this about Tesla and SpaceX as well.

Given his track record, I'm inclined to believe he understands the problem space and how to solve it better than you or I.

Yes, the burden is on him to execute, but that will take him years. The argument that "I don't understand it therefore it's invalid" holds little meaning. Musk isn't a person who gets this deep into a project without a high likelihood of success, historically.

I'm surprised "turn timer" isn't broken out into its own rule. This is a big one for keeping games social and fun. I've got a friend who I really can't play strategy games with because he'll take so long determining the optimum move. It's just not fun. Unless there's money on the line (e.g. poker), most people are playing for fun (and even in poker you can "call the clock" on someone who's taking too long).

Here’s a whitepaper on the underlying technology:

https://docs.radixdlt.com/alpha/learn/whitepapers/tempo

The conclusion in the paper:

“This paper has proposed a method for determining total order of events within a distributed system, without relying on trust, that is scalable, efficient and agnostic to its operating environment. To reduce overhead and increase performance, our solution defines a structured, shardable architecture that limits state transfer information to only members of the network that need it. A peer-to peer network provides the means for communication and information routing via a reliable and robust gossip protocol. Nodes maintain a logical clock when witnessing events and periodically produce a tamper-proof commitment representing those events. When witnessing events, nodes collaborate to create Temporal Proofs which contain verifiable space-time coordinates which are used to construct vector clocks and determine when an event was first seen by the network. Nodes can join and leave the network at will and rely on detectable consistency anomalies to synchronize and bring them up to date.”

The periodically produced commitment log is done with a Merkle tree.
The principle of writing a fast core in C, and choosing a Turing-complete language as the language to build the tool, and further giving the user an interpreter so that (s)he can extend it, is a brilliant design. Whether or not you are a Lisp fan or an Emacs user, this is a great way to build a sophisticated tool.

While the unix tool philosophy is to do one thing and do it well, Emacs shows that it is possible to build software which lasts 50 years by going the other way as well, as long as there is a philosophy of empowering the user.
Your straw man looks very fierce and imposing, but this is argument by assertion. If self-identified progressives find the goals and actions of Bill Gates, say, to be congenial, what does it matter that you believe his heart isn't in it? -- it's "more like a fashion trend", as you say.

It is very easy to convince yourself that someone else's actions are insincere. If this -- your own belief supported by your desire to see them as horrible people -- suffices for you as evidence, why should anyone attempt to argue against you?

In other words, there isn't much value in "fashion" or "virtue signaling" accusations except in preaching to the converted.
To me the question was about availability rather than pedantry.
It's more like it's closer to the baser parts of human nature to put self-interest first. We might talk "left or right" till the cows come home but I'm fairly certain that when push comes to shove, we'll find more important things to discuss.
There are two different varietals of jackfruit: one with firm/crunchy flesh (this is the kind you see canned in stores) and the other with creamy. Durian is like the jackfruit with the creamy flesh (in texture), but durian's fruit is larger. They have a similar mouthfeel (and taste: to me, that is), but the smell puts off a lot of people. Unfortunately you don't get the creamy jackfruit in a lot of places so you have to hunt for it. Luckily my parents have a tree in their back yard....
Yeah but freedom is about tolerating what you don't like because it's none of your concern. I don't understand how the "land of the free" could favour a small group so much. It's unthinkable in my post-socialist country.

Wander around your local Chinatown stores. They should have both Jackfruit and Durian. And if you're really lucky, mangosteen. I'm starting to see Dragonfruit in regular groceries now, so hopefully some of the other fruit should make it there in a few years too.
Start with the available documentation.

After that, getting an abstract overview over the packages/modules and their responsibilities is key IMO. It helps you understand the structure and how the logic is tied together.

Developers often stay away from contributing to open source projects, because of the initial hurdle to understand a large grown code base written by someone else.

My team and I are currently building a developer productivity tool. The goal is to help developers grasp code quicker with visuals / graphs. If anyone’s interested — preferably OSS maintainers, contributors — feel free to reach out. We would love to get some feedback.

The asteroid peril isn’t science fiction
My grandparents had a durian plantation in Sibu, a small town in East Malaysia. During the season we would camp out there for days, waiting for the sound of a fruit dropping and then running out to retrieve it. We had to sell it after my grandfather passed.

Interestingly, they say the best durians (from Malaysia) can hardly be found in Malaysia as they are all brought to Singapore where they fetch a much higher price.

I wrote a love song to durians which I released a few weeks back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylX-HLGgI8E&list=PLB5PnPqPHu...

These are small os's, they're great and useful. There are others. My former, now banrkupt, employers claim L4 code I contributed to is running on over a billion phones. is uTron, eCos etc still dominant in that space?

This is not showing the touted benefits of microkernel based, multiserver operating systems. This is not a secure operating system, this is not a robust operating system, this is not self-healing drivers. Is very small, monolithic a better description of what these are?

Do something like spin up a web-server on a multi server OS and demonstrate it's very hard to hack compared to apache on linux. Make it convincing enough so people use it. DJB did this with qmail and it really is convincing. How long have mircorkernel proponents been talking up improved security, robustness and resilience? 25 years? More? So we've had time and a mountain of engineering resources, including some of my own. It's reasonable to ask to see it. If we can't, it's reasonable to ask why not yet. It really is reasonable to ask.

In my opinion it's a sign of weakness to simply belittle anyone who does. But hey, this is a weekend microkernel HN story perhaps mostly read by the microkernel faithful so reasonable may not be the way forward, easier to just to act as though it's somehow completely unreasonable. Because anyone who hitches their wagon to the next big thing desperately wants it to succeed, and why not? Promotion is important for mindshare and so on. I have sympathy but I think Feynmann summed it up correctly:

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled."

I'll say it again so the point isn't lost:

I would love to see those benefits in the wild. I really, really would.

What I don’t get is how is a quake which happens on a disconnected and different fault (heretofore unknown) an aftershock of a previous quake (which occurred over 100 years ago)?

I looks like quakes are on a continuum. The extremes are, each quake is an individual event; on the other all quakes are a result and continuation of previous quakes. It seems like the slider position on the continuum is up to a bit of “interpretation”.

Regarding housing problem in the US, well known here on HN patio11 has a simple solution: build homes [1]. Does this mean that he is a populist? Or do politicians just call themselves left-wing or right-wing, and in reality both of them represent the interests of landlords, as the article suggests?

I don't known which articles and columns you read. But I am from this European country with rising populism. In my opinion, things are going in a better direction than in the times of non-populist government. The current government fulfills promises and pays broad social benefits, but at the same time this populist government has reduced the budget deficit.
