Somewhat related, but am I only one who're annoyed by the "Did you find this information helpful?" form at the end of some help page? I'd usually just click Yes/No, but then some sites forced me to type in the reason. At this point, I'm like "screw this, I'm out" and just close the tab. Wonder how many times this happened to others.
The thing is, news consumption correlates with partisanship. Your news addicts are the least likely to actually change their mind at the ballot box with all of that 'information'.. it's doing them remarkably little good besides feeding dopamine receptors on a regular schedule.
because i am describing the position as "arrogant privileged" vs GP who is describing me as a person on "high horse".
The argument has been made that the public deserves access to every President's and Presidential candidate's tax records, so they can make informed decisions about whether to elect or re-elect them.

Things such as conflicts of interest, crimes, and lies about where/how they got their money and whether they're really as wealthy as they claim to be, whether they've cheated on their taxes or paid unfairly low taxes considering their enormous wealth are all things that could influence these critically important decisions on the part of the public.

A further argument is that officials serving in public office don't have the same expectation of privacy that private citizens do.

In view of these two arguments and others it's not difficult to see why the authors of this article need not consider the revelation of Trump's tax returns a good thing merely because they don't like him.

Further, there is no evidence in the article that its authors would not be concerned about the privacy rights of other people they don't like who aren't: 1 - the President of the US, and 2 - not public officials.
https://semiengineering.com/5nm-vs-3nm/ TSMC’s 5nm technology is 15% faster with 30% lower power than 7nm. A second version of 5nm, due out next year, is 7% faster. Both versions also will use EUV.
These comparisons will be made all over the place, since these designs are always inspiring each other. When I see the new edge logo, I see something that resembles some of the unused branding of the Xbox One and Xbox360, something that resembles the Firefox logo, something that resembles the new design direction of the office suite, something that looks a little like iOS gradients, something that looks a little like the Chrome logo, and so on. I'd say it looks a lot more like old Xbox branding than Firefox branding, though.
This is cute, but I'm dubious. It generated "y3aEmic8B217" as my password. Kid just happened to hit the shift key while also pressing E and then B? It looks a little too random to me. When I pound on the keyboard, I get results that look more like "fjlsd;lasf".
Possibly some kind of tacit collusion is more likely with relatively similarly sized competitors. But to me a giant vs underdog situation is usually worse because in the real world I don’t think the underdog usually comes from behind and wins. In fact I’m amazed by the number of times AMD seems to have accomplished this with a fraction of Intel’s resources.
The Firefox instance I'm using at the moment goes to the non-TLS version when I type "example.com" in the address bar.

None of those things are strictly fundamental. We can do physics with entirely different units with no changes to our formulas as long as we keep the units consistent. Those relationships are fundamental. The units are not.

But we aren't talking about changing the hour. We are talking about changing the label we attach to a given hour. A better analogy would be changing the word kilogram to something else if we found doing so useful. And, in fact, we do that all the time whenever we are talking in another language.
Definitely not assuming that at this point.
What do you mean "can"? Nobody ever does, so I think it is valid to say that it "cannot". Otherwise, you could just as well say that a biological system can be understood from the atoms on up, since quantum theory provides a complete understanding.

I think that you and a lot of people in this thread don't understand the impossibility of understanding millions of lines of code. Do you really think "computer geeks" just hold them all in their heads, and then assume that since they can do that, it must not be difficult?
does not replacing someone count as "cutting back on people" ?
Cool site, however it appears it has already been taken over by people posting very unsavory content. Content of the sort I would never want to see, let alone come across from a single click on the HN front page. Flagged, but best of luck solving this problem.

My 2 year old would like to join as technical employee #1, but only if he gets forward vesting.
Yeah okay. Then why does nobody use it? Even languages like Elm ditched it for easier to understand concepts.

Let's face it. FRP kinda sucks. It's awkward as hell to use and takes way to many brain-cells to achieve simple results. Even the experts have trouble with it. I remember e-mailing the author of a popular FRP library once asking him how I could get multiple shapes moving on the screen at once (as opposed to just one). He replied that he had no idea. Apparently it was still an open problem he was working on. Yikes!

State turns out to be a convenient, natural way to represent... state. Funny, isn't it? That if you have some real world problem that involves state, that you want to model that using virtual state and not the high-order time-varying continuous functions that FRP uses. Even Alonso Church admitted that Turing's tape-based model of computation was easier to understand than his lambda calculus.

BTW one more thing. Spreadsheets are commonly cited as a good example of real-world FRP use. The great irony is that nobody on the planet thinks of spreadsheets as time-varying continuous functions. Nope. People view spreadsheets as a big grid of numbers... i.e. state.
Consider two company A and B. A has market share 'a' and B has b. n is the total market. Then a + b = n.

A's reward for competing will be n - a = b.

A's risk for competing will be a, (it's remaining market share).

A's will compete as long as the reward is greater than risk.

This will reach an equilibrium at a = b.
> shallow information

Article doesn't define news as such. He estimates that about 10% of news is legitimate.

So.. your "debates" are "deep" and everything else is "shallow".

Get off your high horse.
My guess is they're using what the toddler typed to seed an RNG?
But only through Google Cloud for now, as far as I'm aware.
SuperMicro's ILO and rack mounting hardware were really poor a few years ago. Has that changed? Keep in mind the big brands have improved those parts since then, so unless SM made amazing progress, they're not a drop in replacement.
Yeah, the verbiage says that his typing is merely the "basis" for the resulting password, so you're probably right.
Fair - I’ll edit, I did the math wrong (I was looking at each iteration N7P, N6, N5, N5P). However, judging from their graph not all paths should be multiplied.
Conflict of Interest?
reddit's search has been a running joke for as long as I've been using reddit* and I worry that improving it this late in the game might unexpectedly wipe out the entire site and severely damage the surrounding internet.

*Just checked. 9 years. Gulp.
To wash your brain.
Its possible they did, but were so locked into a prescribed way of using the product that they never ran into the sort of bug an "untrained" user would hit in the first 2 minutes of product use.

(Of course its also possible they didn't, or falsely assumed it would work exactly the same as Chrome/OSX.)
Ease of entry into the market is much more important than the present market structure. An underdog can become the market leader in a year or two [0]. The issue with Intel/AMD is that there are only something like 4 legal entities out of >7 billion legal entities on earth who are licensed to produce x86 chips. 4 is better than 1, but it is still a low number.

It is nearly impossible to maintain an oligopoly in a market that is easy to enter and questions of underdog/overdog become irrelevant. All companies have to offer a reasonable (value/$) proposition to customers of they go broke.

There is a very easy workflow remedy for this, if DDG is your default search engine: type "!py [topic]"

For example, I tried searching for "python lists" in my address bar (DDG is my default) and I got all sorts of garbage.

Next, I typed "!py lists" and the browser immediately opened this page for me: https://docs.python.org/3/search.html?q=lists

So that works really nice if what you need is Python's native docs.

RetroArch 1.8.1 released – the mobile UI finally comes of age
Ah, the NSA. Those scamps.
I think the key thing (pun intended) is that the piano is large and therefore people using it move their hands to accommodate, whereas a keyboard is small enough to reach all the relevant parts while not moving your hands but instead stretching the fingers/twisting the wrist, which is great for maximizing typing speed but not for minimizing RSI. It's been pet theory of mine for a while that the reason I don't have RSI despite typing a lot every day is that my technique is absolutely horrendous; I never learned to type properly, so I move my hands a bit while typing and don't always use the same finger for the same key, depending on the surrounding letters, which makes me a relatively slow typer (although not as much as you might think!) but seems to have prevented me from ever getting RSI.
Form is very different, as are the scale and type of movements.
Poor Max -- his dad's a developer, but he still has to work as a typist just to afford clean diapers, food, and toys. Everybody donate to this poor child's cause!

Joking aside, will I break this if I request too many characters? Does it loop after running out of Max's prior input? Is Max really just a script?

Yeah I also got a really weird password that needs shift and characters way to distant from the others to believe it's comming from a toddler

Guessing he's using 2 hands most likely you will get characters around the 1st one he pressed, so if you get a 's' character first, you can expect qweadzc near, but going from a 's' to a capital 'P' and then to a ! doesnt look legit to me
"the domain will exist" does not mean "someone will run a web server there and respond to traffic", though.

Though I'm not exactly sure what it does mean. That it will have at least one DNS record?
It seems like news has given you the illusion of caring as mentioned in section 14. Did you read that far? ;)

Just require all drones to accept a law enforcement signal which causes the drone to send a picture of the owner/operator to the police, send the gps location of where the drone mot recently took off, and the current location of the operator, a gps track of where the drone has been over the last three years, fly to the law enforcement location and land, then disable itself until cryptographic key only available to law enforcement is provided, and finally send a message back to the controller telling them to report to such and such a police station within twenty-four to receive their citation.
Urumqi is a small (by Chinese standards) city of 3 and a half million. There are a bunch of cities in northern xinjiang as well, it has a total population of 23.5 million (and is heavily urbanized in its north). Imagine if a province with more people than many European countries had a different schedule from the rest of the country. And it gets even worse in kashgar, but that’s a much smaller place than Urumqi (only 800k, might as well be a village).

Tibet has similar problems for sure, but there aren’t many people there and you are unlikely to experience it without a special travel permit.
Excellent reasons to have, every year,

1) two hours of time which use the same time notation (think about trains and flights arriving at those times), and

2) one hour which doesn't exist, leading to e.g. time interval between 1am and 3am being 1 hour.
interesting ... I wonder how this is secured from attacks from the website itself redressing it and/or clickjacking attacks
Websites can tell browsers to never connect to them via unsecured channels (hsts/hsts preload), in a secured channel the browser validates the server's encryption certificate is authorized to encrypt traffic for that domain, so the wifi network can not intercept it to serve up the captive porter.
As somebody who plays a similar game with magazines (physical copies of New Yorker, Wired, Nautilus, and others), I don’t think one can realistically account for it, regardless of how wide and diverse your news diet is. At some point enough is enough, and it’s practically up to each of us to draw those lines for ourselves.

For example, it’s not possible to get local news this way (unless you live in a HUGE city), because local news is selectively ignored by major publications. For special interest items (tech, travel, food, cultural things) one can add a more special interest source (like Wired, or random blogs) to your selection, but those kinds of sources are usually more difficult to get in physical, weekly or monthly form; newsletters and podcasts are a godsend here.

You can also overcome the blindspots by occasionally browsing less formal sources like Reddit and Hn, but even those can be more of a trap than it’s worth ime, and provide their own very false senses of all-knowledge.

To put it another way, the blind spot shoots both ways. I can’t enumerate all of the fascinating things I’ve learned reading those magazines that I would never have encountered any where else. I’m not sure if there’s an optimal solution here, it might be to each their own. :P

"️Wagons: Run Warren Wagons, our answer to Trump Trains, to increase network strength."

wow, the stupidity of that is hard to explain... it seems like the product of a cargo cult: "Quick, think of a vehicle that starts with the letter 'W'! Yeah, wagon - the first letter of the word is all that matters, no other property is relevant. Also, lets use the Wheel of Dharma and call it a wagon wheel... our side will love the fedora tip (kek) to 4chan racial humor!"
It never would have occurred to me that aircraft tough enough for the heat and turbulence and debris over a forest fire could be affected by drones. I can find a few "if you fly, we can't" search results but I hadn't seen that message before today. Maybe they're just very precisely targeted? (Drones are tempting but I don't own one.)
I never started, but I did drop out from my masters in mathematics with just enough credits sans a thesis. I'll say for my case it was fortuitous as I exploited every opportunity I had to the fullest.
Are you sure about that? I just tested to be sure, and it works for me (with firefox).

I agree that the id in the html is "user-content-bug-reports", but for some reason the link works anyways. Further if you hover over the heading github displays a link icon to its left, and it points at #bug-reports.

Would these be expected to change by country? I’m getting different results from grc for Facebook, Wikipedia and others in the UK, but the results are consistent between different connections. Results match for grc and paypal.
No. There are many sources that inform people's choices at the ballot box, i.e. their parents, education, books, and life experience.

One of my close friend coming out as gay in high school has had a larger effect on who I have voted for during my lifetime than any news.
No idea on the desktop/workstation uptake. But servers seem available from plenty of OEMs. Supermicro, Asus, and Tyan have a wide variety of single and dual socket offerings.

What impresses me most is that the transition from Epyc Naples to Epyc Rome was pretty quick and doubled the performance on a wide variety of heavy floating point codes.
> In the UK, which has some of the strictest laws, it's more like show you have a legitimate reason.

This is not true for guns. The UK police are required, by law, to issue a gun certificate unless they have a specific reason not to. Rifles are different.
Are Xeons still running hot and sucking up a ton energy? My old workstation from a few years ago is a beast, but the dual Xeons it has runs pretty hot temp wise.

Indeed. Performance per watt is all that ultimately matters IMO.

It's kind of his "thing" to bounce around to different, interesting projects. He wrote the x86_64 spec while working at AMD (and was responsible for the K8s ala Athlon 64s), he played a big part in Apple getting their SoCs to best-in-class, and that's not nearly all he's done.

Incredibly accomplished man, I don't think he's going to stay in one place for very long. He'll probably come back to AMD at some point or another.
I remember that - spinning up a remote and there's MSNBC showing some outrage... seriously traumatic ones in some cases. And in keeping with one of the points made in this article, I don't remember what they were! But I do remember thinking "Jeez there are probably people out there just letting themselves be bombarded with this" and feeling pity and a little bit of contempt for them. But then there are plenty of outrages reported here on HN too - enough to make you start believing everything has been breached/exploited, your every move is under surveillance, etc.
A human using a keyboard is one of the worst RNAs out there
In comments, it's ok to ask how to read an article and to help other users do so.
I'm pretty sure that people who design, build, operate, maintain, pilot or regulate aircraft know more about that topic than anyone else does. Without strong evidence to the contrary, I'm going to believe them when they say it's dangerous to have drones in the air they're trying to use.

"It never would have occurred to me" doesn't meet the standard for strong evidence to the contrary.
And flip that horizontally, it's remarkably similar.
Falkon is the KDE browser which is WebKit-based and not Google. It works on at least Linux and Windows. I believe the GNOME browser (Epiphany?) is also WebKit-based.
I saw this on Zillow and I tracked it down to https://github.com/openid/OpenYOLO-Web or some similar implementation of that protocol. I haven't looked into it yet but I've been intending to figure out how it works and I was surprised I haven't read about it yet anywhere.
Do the problems it purports to solve just not interest you or did you have an alternate suggestion?

It's accurate. :(

Agreed that it's wildly inferior and a direct copy of how iOS does it, which might make sense on a small phone but is shit on a nice expansive desktop. You can make them permanently visible in settings, but they're still downrated (too narrow) and second rate compared to previously.

Simple, probably a 386 computer plugged in somewhere. Never changed.

It is just a joke, the domain means "lost" in French and says "Lost on the internet? Don't panic! We are here to help you: * <- you are here"

Hasn't changed in 20 years, has no javascript, no tracker. Exist since before websites had ads everywhere, and know it would be laughable to put ads on it.
> Getting anything done in an organization means building the right relationships first. Building the right relationships is the difference between being able to ask the infrastructure guys to create some VMs for you in Slack, they do it immediately and then ask you to fill out a ticket and having to fill out the ticket and wait for two weeks.

Funny, they keep rolling out more 'advanced' helpdesk software where I work to avoid building social connections. In the old days I got to know people, now there's no chance of that. There isn't even a name on the emails.

I think in the long run this really hurts the company. It also makes it much easier to be upset at the 'stupid help desk people' rather than individuals you know might just be having a bad day.
Congrats to AMD, but I'm still very pessimistic on their long term prospects. It seems like Intel's advantages come from a system that produces improvements over years. You can see this just in their R&D spending: Intel spends nearly 2x AMD's revenue just on R&D. Whereas this development from AMD was thanks to Jim Keller (who now works at Intel)... It was a one-off event.. and once they've extended it as far as it'll go.. then what? Unless they develop their ability to innovate (they've had issues keeping top talent at the firm), this will probably be another one of AMD's boom and bust cycles.
Spectrum should’ve been a shared resource from the start. It’s scarce because there’s Massive amounts that have been purchased just to stifle competition and isn’t even in use.

Funny, for all those reasons 5g has moved to a shared model.
Pretty entertaining. But if you want people to feel any more confident in your generator, you need to have entropy metrics.

I have a feeling toddlers might be worse than other entropy sources.
