Impossible burgers are an order of magnitude better tasting than any other meat replacement I've tried. Beyond burgers are hilariously worse.
And the guy who created k8s originally is at Microsoft now, so I'd be interested to see how it all falls out if this prediction comes true.
Great article; the demos were very intuitive.

What about alternatives to HTTP entirely? Why not rely on lower level protocols/abstractions if performance is such a concern now?

How to Use LeetCode Effectively
Ask HN: Do you refuse to do stupid assignments?
Background:

I'm a systems engineer, back in a few weeks ago there was a wifi outage in several meet rooms. The incident has affected a few C ranking officers' access to the internet. The company president went outrage and CTO offered my manager to set up a few android pads to monitor the WiFi connection.

I told the manager that it's stupid thing todo and why in detail, anyway, he could not say no to the CTO. We eventually bought 10+ Android pads and placed them around the workspace. He setup a simple automation flow to log WLAN connection and disconnection events to a txt file, and each week we will have to manually fetch the file and put it into an Xls file.

Situation:

It's my shift this week. Should I say no to this kind os BS? Or should be quitting the job, this happens inclines that a lot of things that have gone wrong already.
Introduce Zstd compression to ZFS
I was recently home and found a classic Klutz book we read growing up called Earthsearch. It has an aluminum cover and talked about tons of worldly topics.

Recycling, race, population growth, poverty. All done at an elementary school appropriate level.

I thumbed through the book and read some excerpts and was surprised at how good it still is. So many times books from 20-30 years ago cover things wildly differently than we would today, but nothing was that way.

I'm thoroughly impressed with Klutz and will definitely make sure some of those books end up with my nieces and nephews.
Apple started it. For a time, a text like this:

> Let’s meet at the park [pistol emoji]

Would have have very different meanings between platforms.

Eventually, all platforms followed Apple and switched to the water pistol. (The ones that still show real pistols are obsolete fonts.)

https://emojipedia.org/pistol

At this point, Apple gets to decide what emojis look like, not the Unicode Consortium.
That's a good one, did not think to check that, I'll go over all the caps on the MB.
Trying to make these as testable as possible:

1. A pandemic kills at least 2 million people. There are theories that the pathogen is bioengineered; they may even turn out to be true.

2. At least one of Amazon/Apple/Google/Microsoft/Facebook's market capitalization on 1/1/2030 is lower than its market capitalization on 1/1/2020.

3. There's a 60%+ drawdown at some point in the 2020s in US equities, exacerbated by baby boomers panic selling their retirement funds.

4. Mean global temperatures are at least 1K over the 1951-1980 baseline every year in the latter half of the decade.

5. US prime-age labor force participation trends downward -- the Keynesian post-work future is here, it's just not evenly distributed.

6. A non-Chromium-based browser has at least 25% market share.

7. Humans return to the Moon, but Mars is still at least a few years away.

8. Practical nuclear fusion is also still just a few years away.

9. There are still hundreds of millions of cases of malaria killing hundreds of thousands of people a year; rich Westerners still talk way more about the hundreds of Westerners a year killed in mass shootings.

And just to get some sports in:

10. LeBron James Jr. is not playing in the NBA in 2030.

The Question Is Whether We Live in a Democracy or a Corporate State
> All .NET async APIs take an optional cancellation token parameter [...] The best part about this is that it pervades the entire .NET runtime, the APIs, code examples, and has excellent documentation on correct usage patterns.

This statement is completely false. The .NET runtime is inundated with bad code examples resulting in deadlocks with async code.

In my professional experience, the WriteableBitmap class is completely unusable. All official code samples exhibit the same brokenness.

They all tell you to do the same thing: lock() on the WriteableBitmap object, get the buffer, perform an update the buffer, unlock() on the WriteableBitmap object. But you try to lock() on a backgroundworker (the sane thing to do) and it fails because lock() can only be called from the UI thread. So you lock() on the UI thread, async into a backgroundworker (the second most sane thing to do) to update the buffer, and boom, WPF deadlocks. The official Microsoft UI framework uses .Lock(), not .TryLock(), and you are deadlocked forever. There is no solution to this problem. No solution exists. Abandon all hope ye who enter here.

C#/.NET+async is horrible. Maybe this is the best async implementation that's been done, but if that's the case, the best implementation is worse than starting a new thread every time you need to block on IO. The only way to write good async C#/.NET code is to not write async C#/.NET code. But guess what? As you said, C#/.NET is inundated with async APIs, and it falls down every time you blink at it.

C++ is looking to standardize async/await into the language. I think I'd rather pick up growing corn.

Ask HN: Tesla Prediction for Next Decade
Here’s mine,

1. Tesla Cars will have 1000 miles range and Supercharger will charge at 50 miles a minute.

2. Tesla will achieve level 4 autonomy.

3. Tesla will bring 5th screen revolution to Cars (First four were, Cinema, TVs, Computer, Mobile) Expect Car apps just as on your phone.

What’s yours?

I would be surprised if Cerebras was trying to handle any recurrence inside the overall forward/backward passes. It seems like a lot of difficulty (as mentioned) for peanuts.

I don't get your point about training. Yes, it's backwards rather than forwards, and yes it often has fancy stuff intermixed (dropout, Adam, ...), but these are CPUs, they can do that as long as it fits the memory model.

Full Spectrum CBD Oil

Cannabichromene (CBC), is one of the many cannabinoids found in the Cannabis plant, and is in this way a phytocannabinoid. It bears auxiliary likeness to the next regular cannabinoids, including THC,THCV, CBD, CBN, among others.CBC and its subsidiaries are as plenteous as cannabinols in cannabis.

1. 100 trillion parameter neural net is trained at the very end of the decade. May or may not be useful but I think this is mostly a problem of memory bandwidth and is doable with a minimal number of die shrinks.

2. I will take the under on SelfDrivingCars cars. Way too much pessimism here. The entire first wave of startups( save for TESLA and Comma) are using the same DARPA challenge codebase. New players using reinforcement learning will crack the problem.

3. China will not become a democracy.

4. China will be a leader in software as well as hardware. A Chinese-made social network will be widely used in Europe.

5. Learning-based systems will be successfully applied to proof search. Very significant mathematical problems will fall to such systems before the end of the decade.

6.Quantum computers will not be capable of simulating any significant/useful chemistry in this decade.

7. A baby with 100+ edited alleles will be born and healthy, probably in China.

8. Cognitive genomics will come to the fore as it becomes clear several standard deviations increases in mental traits, including IQ, are possible with such edits. Lysenkoist ideologies may have trouble adapting, but by the end of the decade it will be clear to most which way the wind is blowing.

9. AGI has not happened yet, but the conspiracy of silence around the topic no longer prevails. The field. Most people in machine learning consider AGI the goal of the field, and say so without shame.

Avoid any product called "kava tea". It's not tea and can't be drunk like tea. Kavalactones aren't water soluble so simply steeping a teabag filled with powdered kava root in water won't do anything.

Head over to /r/kava and the read the FAQ in the sidebar which includes a list of recommended vendors (and which ones to avoid).
Forgive me, I thought we were talking about with the follow-through. In this case, I guess it's just as easy if you practice, which most people don't. People do practice the overhand knot though.

So, an overhand knot is likely easier for most people, where a figure-eight would be better for those who practice.
In practice those bridges function very well. It's common to find channels in the Matrix ecosystem that have IRC and Discord users that aren't even aware that there's Matrix participants.
Org Mode and Observable are both performant enough. Unfortunately, they have their own limitation. In Emacs+Org Mode, you're working with a rich text display as a canvas, so while you can output images easily, forget about interactive GUI (charts, control sliders, what not) - at least without some dark hacking magic.

Observable - that's a true joy if you want fast feedback and interactivity. It's as fast as your browser, since your notebook is entirely client-side executed JavaScript. It's an order of magnitude better option than regular notebooks if you want to do some exploratory or scientific visualization. It's main drawback: JavaScript. That's what you're limited to. So forget about your favorite Python or R libraries (at least without dark hacking magic).
"Tech is changing faster than ever."

What changed in tech from 2010 to 2020? My take below.

Hardware:

Phones got way better and changed the face of modern human life. 3D TVs fizzled. VR has fizzled so far. AR fizzled. CPUs improved, but more slowly. HDDs improved, but more slowly. SSDs got cheap. Displays got way cheaper. Cars got better infotainment systems and other features, but never drove themselves. Wireless power didn't happen. Mesh networks didn't happen. Ultra cheap RFID didn't happen. Robots didn't happen. Telerobots didn't happen. T Dynamic pricing didn't really happen. Drone delivery didn't happen. Flexible electronics didn't happen. Nanotechnology didn't really happen. Graphene didn't happen. Ubiquitious computing didn't happen. Non-silicon based solar didn't happen. Silicon solar costs plummeted and installations went gangbusters. Wearable electronics didn't happen, except for smart watches. eReaders grew. FPGAs never took off. Chips are still mostly silicon. The top CPU makers are still Intel and AMD. The top GPU makers are still NVIDIA and AMD. The top video game console makers are still Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft. Home internet remained mostly cable, not fiber. Computers remained x86, phones remained ARM.

Software:

The dominant search engine is still Google. The dominant computer operating systems are still Windows and Mac OS. The dominant phone operating systems are still Android and iOS. The top video streaming site is still YouTube. The top map site is still Google Maps. The dominant office software is still Microsoft Office. The dominant social network is still Facebook. The top online retailer is still Amazon. The top cloud provider is still AWS. Internet Explorer died, and Chrome grew in share. Websites are lot better and slicker. Phone apps got way, way better. Cryptocurrencies didn't take off. MMOs didn't take off. Web anonymization didn't happen. Web identity didn't happen. Malware still exists. Spam still exists. Lag still exists. Functional programming didn't take off. Telepresence didn't take off. Remote work didn't take off. Mass outsourcing of software jobs didn't happen. Linux didn't take off. Prediction markets didn't happen. Video calls didn't really take off, but they happen. Most of what was growing in 2010 continued to grow, most of what was shrinking in 2010 continued to shrink.

What else happened? What narratives do you construct?
Ideally we should all stand up to injustice, but maybe try to avoid senseless loss of life over trivial things. If nothing else consider the opportunity cost of not being able to standup later when it might really matter.

Obvious loss of life is extreme and trivial things is subjective, but I think the point stands. There is a practical consideration to be made about what the risk profile is and what the degree of crime is. Clearly charging a man holding a loaded gun because he swiped some gum would be silly. Charging a man with a loaded gun because he’s about to shoot a kid, different set of equations.

> Rationing access to healthcare by people's economic contribution to society is just as fair as any other sort of rationing you care to come up with.

What's the thought process for the "fairness" of income based rationing? This doesn't seem that rational from either utilitarian or deontological angles. From my perspective it's a very unfair strategy compared to providing equal care to all people.
Only slightly related, but is it the same in EU? Unlike the USA, Android has a much higher market share here.
Of course, every successful language could be roasted with this, too.

It's a cute post but if there were a simple checklist for creating a successful language, every language designer would just do that.
I hope so too, but I have no faith that will be the case.

What at the best resources to learn Modern (C99) portable C for a person with some computing science background and a I have used Pascal, python... but I don’t have any knowledge of some other scripting languages like JavaScript, hypertext like HTML, css.

Let me know what you think: I all ready went throughout Programming in C and I am know proceeding with “Notes on Data Structures and Programming Techniques (YaLe CPSC 223, Spring 2018) by Yaleby James Aspnes and Modern C by Jens Gustedt.

Could you advise on good courses in Advanced C or books that might enlighten me.

Raku (formerly Perl 6) basically sits alone as the successor to the slower-and-more-expressive throne. It's a great language to study for the gee-whiz-they-thought-of-everything factor.

But, nobody is paying attention to it. Some of that is because of the Perl 6 baggage, but just as much is probably because this past decade was so heavily entrenched in proliferation of the web-cloud-mobile paradigm that new scripting systems weren't part of the hype cycle. If it didn't get the backing of the FAANGs, it didn't register.

I can imagine a day coming where scripting shines again, though. It might actually be closer than we think. There is always a need for glue code, and glue code benefits from being a kitchen sink of built-in functionality.

I have a knot problem that I think pretty much everyone has encountered. How do you tie a bundle of branches or a cardboard box or something compressible as tightly as possible? The first way everyone tries is to cross the rope like you would for shoelaces, then putting pressure on the crossed rope with your finger, and trying to cross the ends of the rope with your one free hand to finish the knot. Inevitably the knot is way too loose. Surely there must be a better way?

EDIT: the word "ratcheting" nicely conveys the idea I was looking for.
