Personally, I think it's great that Rust places radical limits on ISA and C ABI like octet addressing, two's complement integers, and size of bool being 1.

What non-octet-addressing DSPs do you find to be important these days and why don't octet-addressing DSPs work for the use cases?
Techrights (formerly Boycott Novell) is not the place to go for that.

It is the conspiracy site that has claimed such things as Microsoft caused the Deepwater Horizon spill, Bill Gates invests in companies that cause polio in Africa, the real purpose of the Gates Foundation's work in Africa is to oppress brown people so that Africa can be recolonized by western governments, that Microsoft has significant control over the US government, the French government, the UK government, PBS, the Lancet, the Washington Post, The New York Times, CNN, and others (possibly related to Microsoft's attendance at the Bilderberg meetings).

And that's just a few I remember from literally hundreds of such things that have been posted there in the 13 or so years its been around.

It's not all conspiracy theory stuff, but even when it covers something that is actually true it tends to mix in some of the conspiracy stuff.

> how do you push people to improve themselves?

The first step is to write a clear explanation to sincerely answer why what you're proposing is an improvement. How does the practice which you're proposing fulfill a need?
On a shared memory system there's little need to do that - there's much more parallelism to be had from accelerating fine grained operations, like matrix multiplications to compute each layer's output.

On a distributed system, splitting up layers between machines to do distributed training is pretty much what Google initially designed Tensorflow for. Generally it scales less well due to the need to communicate massive amounts of data between nodes and much lower network throughput than what GPU/TPU memory provides.

My places.sqlite is 400MB, and just opening the history viewer is enough to cause Firefox to hang for several seconds. It's really not designed to store history forever; I even had to change places.history.expiration.max_pages and places.history.expiration.transient_current_max_pages in about:config to prevent it from deleting old entries.

That's just as true with wealth. Sure, you could spend your wealth down, but that's like eating your seed corn; very few actually do that, because it means you're not wealthy anymore afterwards.
In my opinion Erlang (and by extension Elixir) are functional-ish languages that are at their core very pragmatic about not being too _dorky_.

Pretty much exactly what I was going to write except for the languages mixture that for me is a bit different and probably more fast jumping.

This sounds a bit alarmist. So the chief medical officer of the company is also the editor-in-chief of the journal they publish in? And the paper is about the rapid release of tylenol, not about the cancerous effects of ranitidine?

Bear in mind this company makes money by testing regular medications and assuring their drug content and safety - they have a financial motivation to find problems in available medications. This is not to say that production standards may not be ideal for medications, but it does mean one should be skeptical of their claim.

Alarmism is popular in health. Look at the removal of vaping products, despite studies demonstrating their general safety. As if the risks of smoking aren't already known and fairly major.
I am surprised that they have a way to serialize compound keys but they don’t serialize the non-primary fields into a single value. Why wouldn’t that be obviously easier?

They have the primary key fields serialized in the key so they need code to make a match pattern against it etc. If the value contained the entire non-primary fields in the exact same format then that same pattern code could be used to evaluate where clauses on those fields too etc.

I would anticipate it also being massively massively faster and dramatically reduce write amplification etc.
The source you linked to has the spec created by a Google engineer and in working draft. All the browsers you mention are based on Chromium so will automatically inherit this functionality.

I’m not saying it’s not something useful to implement, but it usually takes some time and a stable specification before other browse manufacturers want to implement non-mainstream functionality.
The Windows Sandbox is just an auto-resetting, pre-activated Hyper-V VM. Nothing you couldn't do with your own off-the-shelf installation of Windows 10 in Hyper-V, and its probably a better idea so you get snapshots, advanced control over networking, and the ability to persist data for prolonged testing.
For those unaware, this interface already exists this simply in the browser's UI (the difference being that your approach allows launching from desktop)

Even if we were to accept that, there are many ways of "restricting the labor supply"; and nepotism is just about the least efficient you could think of. If you're going to "restrict" access to something, it should be done by rewarding individual merit and competence.

(At least that would imply a pretty nice improvement in labor conditions - no more workers being flattened by containers! Which is also the kind of thing unions typically care about.)
I’d be really interested to see how much people that are actually in the “boomer” age range are talking about “ok boomer”.

Did you miss the part where it dramatically improved the quality of life of tens of thousands of people who were in the intended consumers of the product (post-stroke and old age)? There's a significant long term cost to killing off innovation in the name of some idealized pursuit of perfection.

The fact poor factory production quality hurt a small subset of children it wasn't originally 'invented' for is not a failure of 'reckless innovation and experimentation' (whatever that means). Xanthan gum was tested by the FDA and continues to be consumed in countless other products today, that process will always be imperfect.

It's very questionable any sort of hyper-safe approach to regulation and a general hostility towards innovation/experimentation would have even caught the risks of poor factory conditions... or whether they would have even tested it on a subset of premature babies at risk for NEC.

This might be a hot take, but I think this is unnecessarily complicated and is a solution looking for a problem. My thoughts apply more broadly to the CSS Draft for pagination as well.

In general - why does the Web need this? This is a less-flexible CSS grid, with some auto-increment and @media(print) styles mixed in.

The use case for faithfully representing a textual work is not convincing - this can be done already, more accurately, and in a far less complicated manner by using images or PDF or any other format more suited than hypertext markup and CSS.

We already have pagination on the Web, it's called a webpage.

This just feels so wrong and not what a Web document should be: https://www.w3.org/TR/css-page-3/

The issue is that later on, you start delving into ambiguous territory for words. I've found that it's impossible if you maintain a (word in your native language) frontside and (target language word) on the backside.

First thought is that you should do sentence mining. That way you have the context surrounding it that let you figure out how the word is meant to be used?

Second thought, have you think about using symbolic images to avoid tying a word to target language?

I found it difficult to use since you have to make your own symbols and concepts, and re-purposing images to represent something. Not time efficient, and I am not sure if it's actually effective. OTOH, it should get easier and faster as I amass more conceptual images. For example, I have an example of "one" and "hour", so I can combine them to make "one hour" without English or any other written language involved.
I understand how they work and I have done work both for insurance companies and re-insurers, nuclear power plants are insured a little different.

Here are some facts on how it works.

"Currently, owners of nuclear power plants pay premiums for $375 million in private liability coverage for each nuclear reactor they own. If there is an incident at a nuclear plant, and the $375 million in coverage is not sufficient, the owner’s coverage is supplemented by the second layer of protection, which is supplied by the nuclear power industry as a whole. Under the Price-Anderson Act, all reactor owners are committed to paying their share of any damages that exceed the incident reactor owner’s first-tier limit of $375 million—up to $111.9 million per reactor. Since are currently 104 reactors in operation, the amount that would be available in the industry pool to pay claims totals $12.6 billion (2011). "

It works because nuclear accidents are extremely rare and less dangerous than wind and solar let alone coal, oil and gas.

These two concerns seem rather unrelated. I mean, pagination is valid for 2 pages. A book is hundreds of pages, and the concerns there relate to that very long length. (I would settle for a nice in browser solution for merely the former!)

Always in matters like this, it's about degrees of compromise.

While some will be happy with one of these three options, some will find it a step too far from mainstream, low maintenance high end options.

With this in mind, it's important to make recommendations across the spectrum, to encourage those not willing to go "all the way" to still go some of the way.

In this area, I'd look at Fairphone (not great on the high end cutting edge tech side for obvious reasons, but decent on openness), Motorola and One+ (both more mainstream high-end options but also not quite as heavy on user-hostility as some competitors).

Google are also quite good in this area, on the hardware side, but given their ownership of the software side and general practices in that area, I'd be in less of a hurry to recommend them.

This takes some of things I dislike about the usual hiring process and amplifies them.

Unless I was desperate for work, I would refuse to participate in this type "interview" process as a candidate. Nor would I use it to hire people. There are some things that need a human touch. I want to get to know the people I will be spending a significant amount of my daily time with. I want to give them every possible opportunity to succeed at the interview and I actively try to help them at it.

I just recently finished an interview where the person interviewing me did just that.

He gave me a big hint at solving a problem he asked me to talk through as I was coding. Did I ever feel stupid because when he gave me that hint I realized that anyone at my level should have immediately reached for that method. But for whatever reason, perhaps nerves, it just didn't occur to me at the moment. It was good coding together like that and talking through the code. I got to know a little what it would be like working with him, and he got to understand a little bit about how I think while writing code. I got the job.
Why not store hydrogen? Estimated round-trip efficiency is approximately 40%. Storage in underground caverns / mines.

If most of the energy consumption is supplied directly, the storage part need not be overly efficient as long as it can cover the slack. 40% seems good enough. Even 20% is workable, if need be, just need to over-provision enough PV / wind and the over-provisioning itself significantly reduces needed storage.

If combined with capacious long-distance electrical grid (e.g. HV DC), load scheduling, high-uptime offshore wind, some PV in deserts, maybe thermo-electric solar, some batteries for rapid load following, etc, we really can supply enough power even with 0 coal, gas and nuclear power plants, and it wouldn't even bankrupt us. All we need is will. The technology is already sufficient and with improvements it won't be even that hard.
I defer. I value remembering syntax of programing language. Not all syntaxes, but your commonly used ones.

Show HN: Monk, opensource low code transfer learning toolkit for computer vision
I don't know about sharing tech, but there should definitely be a shared evaluation benchmark, and some kind of oversight agency should be involved. The idea would be: if you want to be permitted to operate an AV on public roads, you need to demonstrate that your vehicle's vision system can detect pedestrians and obstacles with near-perfect accuracy on a large shared image database, most of which is NOT distributed to researchers.
You are looking at XAML, which underlines WPF, Silverlight, UWP/WinUI as the layout description language.

You can also do it in pure .NET code without XML, hence why I specifically mentioned code first.

So to pick on your example,

var btn = new Button
{
Name = "Button",
Content = "Hello, world!",
HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left,
};
btn.Click += (s, e) =>
{
// handle click event
};

My understanding of modern research labs is that the actual inventors put their name on the patent, but the owner of the patent may be the company.

Is that not the case? Or is the inventor usually just the project leaders?

It seems very wrong that Edison would have put himself on the patent as the inventor AND the owner of the patent.

Another big one in our culture is location prestige. When I was reading a lot of scientific papers I lost count of how many times top universities on the coasts got credit for things that had shown up a decade earlier in some little known paper published by someone in some smaller midwestern or southern college. I saw lots of this in theoretical biology, math, and CS.

I think it was only rarely plagiarism. Mostly it was just that stuff only gets noticed when it gets published by a prestigious university lab. They were probably honestly unaware that anyone else had ever done anything similar.
this is well known and understood by anyone with a few years of experience. what I don’t get is why people keep digging their own hole when they know where this leads.
I dug into this a bit and while they are doing some testing, I’m not sure they really know what they are doing.

When they originally flagged the NDMA issue in Zantac, they published their results. One of the tablets had 32,000 ppm of NDMA. That’s an absurdly high level that should have made them question the result.

Turns out they used a different testing procedure for a different set of drugs. The procedure required heating the sample to 80c for like an hour. The FDA came back and said “yeah, that’s not the right test”. Many drugs will decompose with heat and produce a bunch of impurities. Impurities that aren’t produced in the human body.

Testing for impurities is actually really hard as your testing procedure can have a big impact on the measurements.

Based on the latest FDA guidance, it sounds like Zantac does have higher than allowed NDMA levels, but nothing like what this lab suggests.

So I’d say they are offering a useful service, but they aren’t sophisticated enough to make a judgement call on.
There are people that deeply resent the presence of black people in this country, aimlessly wondering about STEM and inventive contributions to American/Western society by people with African heritage and concluding there aren't any, not realizing that there was a pattern of suppressing those contributions by people just like them, amplified over the last century.
My anecdotal experience interviewing this year is that they don't. LeetCode/Hackerrank-level algorithm questions are common. I haven't seen any TopCoder-type questions and brain teasers. According to some posts, it seems like the industry is trending towards easier problems with more focus on "the process" in which a person finds a solution.

It's still true that employers overemphasize algorithmic ability. I had one systems pop quiz but nothing about usability, business, SWE processes, etc. which are as core to software engineering as algorithms.

Extremists by definition are a small fringe faction. This situation is similar to thousands of other gestures and symbols, even though the vast majority do not recognize or care about what some extremists use. Literally everything has a extremist use somewhere.

Also I'm from India and as I just explained, the Indian swastika is a different design and direction. The Nazi swastika is not used by anyone else, they made it for themselves which is why it's only associated with them.

If you won't listen to the majority group that uses the term telling you it's positive for them, and instead apply the extremist interpretation, then what exactly do you need to hear as a counter position? Seems like it's not open to any other understanding.
