pycparser is actually from ~2008 :-) [http://eli.thegreenplace.net/2008/11/15/pycparser-v10-is-out], but it was probably less easily discoverable in those days - it was initially in SVN and the first release was a tarball drop.

pycparser doesn't do anything about interpreting C, it ends its job at creating the AST.

By the way, pycparser has no external dependencies. It uses PLY but vendors it. I had to port it to Python 3 before PLY did itself, and stuck to the vendoring because it's so convenient.
If a private entity is issued a cert saying "Government Entity", is that a "tiny discrepancy"? https://twitter.com/SectigoHQ/status/1171808269528109058
Ben Eater is simply the best!

One of the best teachers I have come across. If you are interested in hardware internals, I would highly recommend him.

I am ecstatic this is a thing and hope it is a massive hit.
What do you mean here? Lithium is a tiny portion of a li-ion cell, about 1g in an 3600mAh 18650 cell. There is significantly more of Nickel, Manganese, and Cobalt in an NMC cell for example.
For my poor brain still trying to cope with the enslaught of the huge number of all these cloud service features ... this sounds a lot like kubernetes ... is this just a proprietary version of that? Can someone differentiate them for me?
It's great to have a career over a job. But aside from some of the big tech companies, most companies will only ever offer you a job.
I commented last time on W3W coverage for French but it's beyond useless, they use very obscure words 90+% of native speakers have never heard of and you would need a dictionary even for well known addresses in Paris.

My docker containers average about 5gb total. And I have lots of them. It is incredibly easy to become bloated. It is hard to stay bloat free
Indeed, I can imagine a few mechanisms for such a correlation.

1. El Nino / Southern Oscillation affects the temperature in Australia and (especially South) America which would affect farm yields and hence US stock market prices.

2. Extra hot temperatures at a uranium mine near a town in Australia might limit productivity of that mine, causing uranium prices to change.

Just two off the top of my head. The effects might be only very mildly correlated, but not zero.

so just like Burningman?

> and folks possibly shooting at you

Or Burningman back before '99 when people were still allowed to take firearms? (Anyone else remember the Drive By Shooting Range? Drums of avgas, stuffed toys, tracer rounds, and tequila, all from the back of a moving pickup - what could possibly go wrong?)
Where does he get these games? Are they freeware?
Just as an aside, Facebook is useful to demonstrate the Birthday Paradox. Even if you don't know that many people.
I think just because someone may be bad at one thing, does not necessarily mean they are bad at other stuff too.

Also, I think you should have the right to your opinion. But, people who have other opinion also must have right to their opinion, too, rather than only one.

These are just as true with Stallman as with Minsky, and also the other people who complain about it, I think.

I don't like it either that they did that sex, and I fail to see how "the most plausible scenario is that she presented herself to him as entirely willing", but I think it make sense that you should not "accusation inflation", even though other people might says differently. I do not defend rapists, but also do not accuse them of other stuff too automatically.

Whether or not you use GPL and Emacs and so on are entirely different decisions than those reports they mention, though. It is separate, even if done by the same person.
I wish I could write in my own language, but it's good.
Well, great. Exactly 0 people are "forced" to pay into a union they don't want to be a part of! If you don't want a union job the solution is simple: don't take that job.

But I guess the numerous benefits you enjoy today because of unions don't matter all.

Isolated Lives of Japan’s Social Recluses
The fact these classes dont allow one to preview the first few courses before registering has to influence these stats.

I’ve done a number of them over the last couple of years and the fact that I can’t preview has caused me to abandon so many of them. If I don’t like my professor, the way the course is organized, or whatever, I’ll abandon the course and go find some other source for the same information which does a better job resonating with me.

And I know I’m not alone in doing this, off the top of my head, I know at least 3 workmates and at least a number of friends who do the same thing.

The completion rate would have to shoot up much higher were they to allow people to know what theyre getting into ahead of time. And strangely, these companies have a much better ability to do this than traditional schools.
2 gb user + 1 gb swap + 1 gb rootfs unpacked in ram perhaps. They discuss a decompression operation and the only portion of the sequence that would occur in normally is unpacking a rootfs in RAM.
The view is relatively extreme because of constructed social norms, but when I was 14, I had the same view, and it was shared among the peers that I associated with. It would be hypocritical for me to say the points you quoted are abnormal, because in my experience, that's what being 14 was like.

Consensual encounters between underage high school freshman and adult high school seniors are certainly different than a DHS employee, but which one is more "moral" depends on the framework you use to evaluate trust. For example, atleast DHS employees get background checks. And which of those two groups are better known for carrying out school shootings?

My points are: Stallman's relatively extreme views are not absolutely extreme views; and overall, the amount of gray area in the subject makes it complicated.
The idea is you treat waste water with this before it goes out to the ocean.
I'm genuinely confused if you're saying ML is better or worse for finding such correlations, because humans are also extremely good at finding patterns where there's none, as this website hilariously demonstrates:

It is unclear whether biodegradable plastics break down fully to non-plastic products or whether their breakdown produces microplastics, unfortunately.
Longtime lurker. I owe my entire career to HN. I was always into programming but never understood the business/startup side behind it. Thought you just had to get a job and unless you were super lucky or rich there wasn't any other way. Discovering HN has shattered this notion and allowed me to live my life the way I always wanted to.
Happens a lot in (bad) science fiction, and parody thereof.

People land on a planet, go "I wonder if the atmosphere is breathable?", then open their helmet and take a deep breath.

But I think by the time anyone is arriving on a planet around another star, it will be with biotechnology that allows adaptation to a rather wide variety of environments.

I don't want to be dismissive, but I swear this headline like 100 times over the past 10 years. This, and "teen finds bacteria culture to digest plastic waste".
My objection is to the absoluteness of the phrase

> A person would know that the two events have no connection.

When a negative statement like this is presented as absolute and categorical it's very easy to disagree with it.
> Anyone else remember the Drive By Shooting Range? Drums of avgas, stuffed toys, tracer rounds, and tequila, all from the back of a moving pickup - what could possibly go wrong?

Oh my god that sounds hilarious. Also hilariously dangerous and irresponsible, but still hilarious...
Plus nobody cares about credentialing at all. What they do care about is solving problems, and it seems reasonable that 96% of problems become solvable with the course material provided before reaching the very end of a course. Once the problem is solved, there is little reason to continue.
Likely to result in a total meltdown... (sorry, too easy)

More seriously:

>Saturday’s theft also comes after Edward Spencer-Churchill told a London newspaper that the golden toilet would not be very easy to steal, since it was connected to the palace’s plumbing.

I am amazed. Anything of that value makes for a favorable risk / reward opportunity.
It’s a lot easier to accomplish this under the conditions I outlined above. That’s all I’m saying. People have gotten away with worse.
It's the only place I ever manage to have substantive discussions of medical science. Given my diagnosis, this positively contributes to my failure to be dead yet.
People have commented that a planet a bit larger than earth (I think 8-9 times qualifies) would have gravity too strong for rockets to ever be practical, and thus whether you were a marooned earthling or evolved there, you would never ever be able to get into orbit.

So, there could be "super-earths" with life similar to ours, even intelligent, and they would never be able to participate in a space-faring society.
This is an extremely provocative title which I hope the mods will swiftly change and/or censure.

I often find myself thinking "Stallman was right!" when it comes to FOSS/privacy but there is a zero-percent chance I will ever defend Epstein's organized, systematic, and continuous abuse of children.

And shame on everyone who refers to him as a "disgraced financier" and his victims as "underage women."

This isn't a pearl-clutching instance of "think of the children" so much as a totally human response based on the litany of evidence that child abuse _ruins lives_ (Google 'Borderline Personality Disorder')

The earth doesn't have uniform density at all depths - not sure about the moon. I forget exactly, but I was just reading about how if you could travel to the earth's core, because the density increases a lot, you would continue to experience around 1G something like halfway to the center.
Vouch early and vouch often.
in a proper master/apprentice system quitting early is like aborting your training, that is, you don't get a certificate for incomplete training. for a short training like welding, i don't know, but if it comes with a certificate i suppose you could withhold it if they leave early.

in IT this is a real problem. it takes about half a year to make someone productive. it takes another half year or so before i start getting a return on my investment. if they leave then, i am barely breaking even. if they leave earlier, i am making a loss. a friend of mine tried this business and couldn't make it work financially.
I love how nearly every pitfall listed for AI applies equally to humans who cheerfully see the face of a God in a slice of toast and confusion correlation and causation as easily as they breath air.
It definitely comes up in search-index style posting lists. For dense postings you'll usually deal with bitmaps, but you'll have sorted integers for sparse ones and you usually have at least one list per search term.

There's all sorts database indexing problems that can use this too, I'm sure.
> hospitalized for eight days

Right, but she was scalded by hot liquid. It is customary for hot coffee to be pretty hot, even close to boiling. I don't see how that was "corporate PR", or how McDonald's was at fault. The fact that others held coffee at 140 and McD held it at 180 doesn't sound like a reason it owed six figures.

> She just wanted McDonald's to pay her medical expenses

Right, but she spilled the coffee. Why is McDonald's liable for her slip-up? The jury decided that the warning on the cup wasn't large enough, but I'm not sure that makes sense as people habitually ignore warnings any way. They're printed on so many things that it's hard not to. I doubt a larger warning would have made a difference.

This is like some one purchasing a knife, cutting himself, and complaining that the manufacturer is at fault because there was not a sufficiently large warning that "knife is sharp".
I always wondered if there was enough unsecured/vulnerable endpoints in the internet to provide enough compute "resources" for some sort of replicating script to survive. I guess botnets come closest.
Totally different type of cells. LCO and NMC batteries which this would theoretically replace are energy cells with a specific energy of around 200Wh/kg. These are used when total energy matters, but you don't need high charge/discharge rates, such as with a laptop or cellphone.

LFP like you are talking about are considered power cells (along with Manganese Spinel). The specific energy is about half of an energy cell at around 90-120 Wh/kg. These are that cells you use when you want the stored energy quickly, such as with an electric car or power tools.

Just last weekend I was talking to one of FreeBSD's VM gurus about doing exactly this in FreeBSD too. You have to be careful about it though -- some data structures are autosized at boot, and if you're not careful you can end up with systems "running out of memory" because they have too much memory.
Very interesting theory. Virtue signaling instead of solution finding at the company level.
They're two different ends of the same scale, like "It's has hard as a rock" vs "It's as soft as a rock".

Either way, though, they're making fun of Libra. Visa is not decentralized and Uber is not ethical.

SATA controller firmware has a hard-coded “drive predelay” that waits before enumerating attached devices, a relic from the days long before SSDs. Even when an option to set a custom amount is available in the BIOS, it is in addition to and not instead of, as there’s no bus master to tell it all attached disks have init and the controller may speak to them.

It wouldn’t necessarily have to be done synchronously up front at all, except when the BIOS hands off control of the system to the SATA controller it expects that afterward it has a definitive list of available boot devices and their properties, for selection/display in the boot menu and BIOS configuration.

Theoretically with UEFI and it’s NVRAM-resident settings, a boot device could be expressed as a namespace and path, and the firmware need not enumerate devices until it has determined that there’s a need to search for alternative/fallback boot devices, but the stack hasn’t been updated with that in mind.
The FAQ strongly hints that they know there'll be some sort of legal blowback:

"Before WhatFreeWords existed, another group had released an open-source implementation of What3Words and published it on GitHub, and GitHub removed the repository after receiving a DMCA takedown notice from the What3Words company. It is likely that similar action would be taken against a WhatFreeWords repository on GitHub."

and:

"We prefer to remain anonymous. The What3Words company has shown that they will attempt to cause problems for people distributing open-source implementations of the What3Words geocoding system, so it is easier if we are anonymous."
It can negate the need for a roof at high speeds, which has saved me on many road trips

There is a relatively low understanding among the public of how money is created and how the economy expands in today's modern economy after 1971 Gold standard deviation.

If some part of the monetary system is taken over by something that is not money, it is almost impossible to be able to control the amount of money in circulation or inflation or the need for new government money will be uncalculatable.

I can not comprehend any country allowing this unless it has got some extremely high tech mechanism to control the amount of money that goes into crypto/libra.
Most of the bloat isn’t from the kernel. That’s the last thing you really optimize after getting rid of all the background services, startup tasks, etc.

As far as I can see from a quick look at Boko Haram's propaganda wing the best is a normal drone with a camera, no evidence it's been used in the field. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYwi8BFVDzQ)

This is just the nytimes.com working for Boko Haram's propaganda machine.

Perhaps once removed since I'm sure they are repeating local media, but equally it would not have taken long to fact check their sources which they know are not reliable, basically they know this claim is going to be false but it's a good news story so don't look to hard.

ISIS style organisations using drones I'd say involves trained solders who have moved over, educated engineers in Iraq and Syria for instance or places they have access to support from countries like Iran (ie in Yemen), not Boko Haram.

Today gamers don't like to multi-task and Starcraft(and its clones) is a multi-tasking monster(scouting,economy, building, combat), so similar RTS which force multiple issues at same time are outfoxed by simpler game mechanic games where attention is more deeply focused and players can gain skills easier.
Another factor is RTS are anti-casual, they don't forgive mistakes and only a tiny % of gamers can handle the stress of constant losing/failing, in context of highly demanding, multitasking heavy game. The genre doesn't accept game style variations either - a single cookie-cutter build order is the best one, the rest is suboptimal and loses you either time or money.
Show HN: Multilingual NMT Using Transformers with Conditional Normalization
His project certainly has my attention! Only two things have me concerned right now: cost (the question of if it can reach scale) and video.

His current choice for a video co-processor "Vera" excites and concerns me in equal measure. At the top-end, it outputs to VGA with a 640x480 bitmap mode using an an active palette of 256 colors (out of 4096 colors) per pixel. It supports 128 sprites and interrupts (used to indicate sprite collisions, an active video line, or vsync). All that sounds great, doesn't it?

The majority of what I don't like is that the video processor is essentially off of the main bus. The CPU only has access to video through a set of 8 registers (plus interrupt). So it has 128k of private video memory and an additional 16k for video registers, palette, and sprites.

If I'm reading this correctly, its private video memory won't hold a full 640x480 256 color bitmap image, which would be ~300k. So it seems like you'd have to load video memory with the second half while it is drawing the first half (and vice-versa). I'm also wondering if an old-school technical like page-flipping is really going to be possible here.

EDIT: Or to put it another way, because the video co-processor doesn't have enough memory to hold the entire image all at once time, and because the video co-processor cannot access main memory, just to hold a static photo-realistic image on the screen you're going to have to constantly copy ~300K of pixels from main memory into video memory... each and every frame. If I'm doing my math right, that'd be more than 36 million operations per second just to pump the data into the video co-processor? It reads to me like the co-processor isn't doing a great job of offloading work from the CPU here.

All of these concerns might be dismissed simply by saying "the CPU is much faster than those other 8-bit platforms you're used to". Assuming that isn't the case, I'd probably like to see the video co-processor have enough memory to hold two full pages of bitmapped video. I'd also greatly appreciate it if they could arrange for direct CPU access through one of their pre-existing banked memory regions.

Still, I'm eager to see how David's project progresses.

It is impressive that the article actually addressed the issue of the cathode expansion, as that was my first worry about using iron, but not one that most people would be aware of.

But Disney seems to have all the franchises that everyone wants to see. Add to that the major broadcasters are also pulling content, it's not just Disney.
