This can only happen if someone develops a storage technology that is simultaneously the lowest cost, lowest latency, highest bandwidth, lowest MTBF, lowest power, smallest footprint, and includes every extra feature (ECC, encryption, etc). Until that unicorn exists, engineers need to select a storage technology that meets requirements for the use case at hand. If these requirements result in a mix of storage technologies, then at some point it's likely to require moving data from one storage device to another.

HPE believes (believed?) in your vision and made a lot of noise about "The Machine", a memristor-based system which incorporated a lot of ideas around the sorts of hardware and software architecture changes that would come from a radical change in the underlying storage technology.

i dont think selling diamonds is a good example in this case. they need to be mined an processed to be sold.
companies do just automate the buy-process for domains only to resell them for a much higher value.

ticket squatting for example is illegal.
Some accompanying software would definitely be required so that it ignores/reduces the velocity factor, and has a way to differentiate movement with pen-up vs movement with pen-down.
This. I've been put in the corner by dang more than once, and I like to think that it made me a more considerate commenter-on-the-internet. Maybe even a more considerate person. Thanks!

Also, I think that it's pretty special that the vast majority of the comments on this article is people disagreeing about what HN's prevalent opinion is. It's easy to have all kinds of opinions when you don't moderate (eg 8chan), but it's hard to moderate a forum and at the same time not let it become a monoculture.

I've seen comments claiming that HN is a neoliberal / libertarian cesspool, and I've seen comments claiming that anything mildly non-PC gets downvoted into oblivion. If both the far left and the far right feel like HN represents the "other side's" opinion, then maybe there's a pretty decent middle ground being struck.

I would suggest finding a job at a medium/big tech company with market rate salary as compared to this if you will only get 1%. You are risking quite a lot and you should get much higher equity.
The external culture war is a serious problem for anyone running a functioning discussion site. HN keeps it at bay but ultimately everything interesting is in some sense political. The problem with the culture wars is making everything factional as well. Not to mention the rampant dishonesty and bad-faith arguing.

As with Cloudflare, ultimately you have to pick a pro- or anti-Fascist stance, because unresponsiveness will leave you pro-Fascist by default.

That data is only for the US where transportation and energy usage is likely higher per capita than other nations. It may also not take into account food that is imported.

On the same website the EPA global stats show that agriculture and deforestation (largely due to clearing land for cattle grazing) contributes 24% of global greenhouse gas emissions. [1]

I agree that we should be considering all areas of emissions, however diet is something that every individual can decide to take responsibility for immediately without having to lobby huge industries or pass new legislation. Other choices like moving to removable energy and reducing our reliance on transport have a lot more economic and social inertia behind them.

Millions of people are already voluntarily reducing or eliminating their meat intake, and there are plant-based options at virtually all restaurants/chains here in the UK. It's a trend that we should all be encouraging in my opinion, as it demonstrates that society can willingly change its behaviour on a wider scale when presented with reasonable alternatives.

I rarely get downvoted, but I feel that most of the ones I have received are unjustified. It usually comes from posting nuanced details that go against a prevailing narrative in a contentious thread.

My prediction, influenced by the article:

-The competitive part of MTG goes the way of online only.

-Niche or "player based" formats like Highlander or EDH stay within the realm of paper.

-Collecting cards remains worthwhile only in paper, online goes to more game play focus.
Studies show otherwise, and I think that the gut reaction of those who read that discussion also shows that at least some developers felt that way, if not in general, then at least in that particular case. Also, that women's participation in software has drastically decreased since the eighties to the point they're now a small miniority is just a fact, and so focusing on them is natural, if not justified. Various causes for outbursts of xenophobia and misogyny have also been studied, and no one thinks they're unexepected, but that has nothing to do with their actual nature. I always anticipate a "strong reaction" on HN when women are discussed, but I'm still saddened by it.

I could only recommend to the curious readers of HN, if they are interested and certainly if they think they should voice their "strong reaction," to try looking at the rather vast scholarly literature that research has produced over the past decades. It's not a matter of a difference of opinions among people with equal knowledge of the subject matter, but usually one between those who have more knowledge and those who have less.
Now just hold on a second. Show your work, please. I don't think of the US overall as having much violence. I face nearly no risk of home invasion, mugging, or anything, really, and that is true for the vast majority of Americans.

Let's be honest: US murder rates are high because of one particular demographic of people involved in particular criminal enterprises. Drug war or no, that is the reality. There are neighborhoods in the nearby cities I don't go near because of the possibility of becoming involved in a violent encounter, probably only due to my being white in a non-white area. Meanwhile, I can go pretty much anywhere else in the US and never have a concern. Why is that?

Mass shootings? Please. They are vanishingly low on the probability of dying chart. I worry more about crossing the street. Those are sad events. So are car crashes, plane crashes, E Coli outbreaks, cancer, heart disease, etc.

The worst thing is how "gun violence" is counted separately and those figures includes things like suicides and police shootings of people in the act of committing felony crimes. Those statistics are ginned to the max in order to mislead the public in support of additional civil disarmament. The implications of that are speculative, but I would say it is so that the next round of subjugation and abuse of the public can take place under the color of law without the threat of push back to those doing the pushing.

If you look at violent crimes in European countries, there is more of it there but they only report crimes once the case has been cleared. No conclusion=no crime mentioned. It is a gigantic lie. If European nations are so safe, how come the cops are nearly always paired with soldiers armed with rifles? You see this everywhere across Europe, in fact. In all those gun-free paradises over there, what threat is on their minds? Or is that just a big show to keep the public in fear?

As I have noted, if you aren't involved in criminal activities, your chances of being acted upon violently in the US are very low.
I guess it is a perfect opportunity to thank dang and sctb for their unobtrusive and friendly moderation efforts.

The article itself was a bit disappointing because it focused on political issues. In my opinion the strength of HN in this regard is that it is both a "sjw cesspool" and a "haven for alt-right", as evidenced by the fact that a comment on a controversial topic can easily float near zero points while raking in both upvotes and downvotes. And even those who refer to it as "the orange site" still come back and comment. In other words, HN may be an echo chamber but it is a pretty big one with a lot of voices in it.

No, it really does make a difference. I've got a close friend who's been involved in many discussion forums, both as user and mod. His experience is mods are the critical link that prevent the community from descending to ugly chaos.

The community helps... but someone needs to be doing some policing to limit the effect of the bad actors or the community starts to get pissed off/wander off/degrade into pettiness.

From talking to Chinese students overseas, it seems to me like Weibo and the like are actually ahead of FB/Twitter in many ways, including a functioning and scalable micropayment system. Sure, government support might be helpful, but you couldn't run anything of that kind and at that scale without some of the best tech people in the world.

From the article, quoting @dang:

≥What does seem to work better is personal interaction, over and over and over again, with individual users. That, case by case by case, seems to move the needle. But it’s very slow.”

I think the guidelines are a great way of encouraging us all to be more thoughtful to others comments, and have noticed a difference in the way I might comment HN.

Often I kill my comment before I actually click "Reply", especially if I know my comment will be too divisive, or if it doesn't add to the quality of previous comments.

Sometimes I upvote a comment because it helped me question/ change a personal dogmatic view.
As the article goes "The most admired arguments are made with data, but the origins, veracity, and malleability of those data tend to be ancillary concerns.", let's see what we can do here.

The latest HN comment dump I could find with a quick search was from May 2018 [1].

There were 237,646 comments in total that month, made by 36,358 unique users. 75% of users posted 5 or fewer comments, with a median of 2. The most prolific user wrote 798 comments, dang managed 6th place with 425 comments.

Even if the numbers doubled since then, there is no need to moderate millions of users, as only (well) tens of thousands of them are actively participating.

Makes sense to me. If they did, we'd be discussing the merit of those motivations and the ideas of each side. But that's the opposite of what they're trying to achieve. Until there's a reasonable court case happening, they concentrate on getting the politics away. A proper trial for Ola Bini is the goal and what people should be talking about first.

What Linux Journal's Resurrection Taught Me about the FOSS Community
If the author is reading this, I would really enjoy hearing what the story pitch process for this was like. Even if it punches above its weight in terms of "mindshare", HN is still niche as far as tech subjects go. And, in terms of online communities, boring as hell compared to Reddit, 4/8chans, and even Usenet. The angle of focusing on the two human mods – particularly in the context of contemporary online content being associated with algorithmic moderation – is a good one, but still seems niche for the New Yorker. OTOH, it would definitely be a more obviously attractive pitch to Ars Technica or WIRED.
I hope this puts AMD in stable footing for many years to come. Having newer and faster chips is great, but whats even better is long term competition in this space.

Interesting, this seems more flexible then the solution AMD previously used in their Radeon Pro SSG [0], in which they connected a 2TB NVMe SSD RAID directly to the GPU by placing it on the GPU PCB (which the application sees as 2 TB GPU memory since HBCC comines the SSD storage with the 16 GB HBM).

Indeed.

My speculation: diets high in vegetables and low in meat reduce inflammation and improve gut bacteria (this is true). So I’m guessing since there are connections between mental health and both perhaps the diet itself is beneficial to mental health?

Fact: And as for hated... it’s so mainstream in London now that if you’re a supermarket or restaurant without vegan options you’re going to lose a lot of business. Many explicitly advertise selling vegan stuff. I think it’s very accepted here now and I expect that to be a trend everywhere.

My speculation: it seems that the key component in fish is the oil and for that there’s algae alternatives. So perhaps a vegan diet with fish oil is the ideal one.

Single data point and context; I’m 100% vegetarian, 99% vegan, eat algae oil and am very healthy. Do with that info as you please ;)
Its basically an akward (in english) rephrasing of the common "the last 10% is the hardest" concept. Also with the implied value proposition that a job 90% done is at best worth 50% of a finished one.
Not sure, what to take away from this list of numbers. From 2000 to 2010 I see a lost decade, with the index back where it started. You added the note "beating the high of ...". why not add two years afterwards "beating the low of ...", etc.
I'm afraid there are no big changes, there's an IntelliJ plugin but it's not as slick as Emacs. If you are already comfortable with Emacs it's all good.

VSCode is also another popular choice.

You probably want to check out Elixir as they can cross-compile, the Elixir build tool and language server are slightly better.

I haven't tried on Windows but I guess Ubuntu would be a safe bet since it's a POSIX system.
