Having a blast with Ryzen 5 3600X. Only problem is that Win10 appears to have a bug with it. Stutters all over. Only stopped when I reinstalled the newest chipset drivers and set the Ryzen Balanced energy profile. Windows default energy profiles all stutter, fans make too much noise etc. Now it stays variating clock from ~3.8 to ~4.2. Before it was fixed at 3.79.
Being a city-dweller for all my life it was a relevation to be finally exposed to farmer life. In many regards, not just the snobbish urban-myths (super conservative, unintelligent, smelly, unindustious government-dependend anti-environmental inbreds) that I held.

The farmers I know, have a huge range of skills, from metalworking, construction, woodwork, mechanical engineering, biology, geology and are putting that knowledge into practice every day. All of that while planning years ahead (for instance how to plow your field this year, so that in 5-10 years you don't get a massive slope on your field's edge).

So when farmers talk about fixing a tractor themselves, it's not just about being able to buy some screws or replacement joints, it's about welding that piece you need, sanding its steelframe to remove rust, knowing whether to bend or clinch instead of welding. It's even about building the tools to build those parts.

As a very basic git user, about once a month my local git repository will get into a state I cannot fix. I cannot revert, cannot reset, cannot make it just fucking be the same as origin/master. Usually I accidentally committed to local master and then did a couple other things and it's just easier to blat and re-clone than work out how to resolve.

If you want to fix this going forward, make all new defined-benefit pensions plans illegal, as we have amply demonstrated that they can't be trusted over the course of a lifetime. Putting your future in the hands of an automaker was bad enough; why do we expect someone to put their future in the hands of a dairy?

A defined-contribution pension plan, where you end up actually owning the assets in question, is the only way to be sure that no one will shrink your pension in bankruptcy, or (for a public pension) reduce them by legislative fiat.

Ask HN: When a VC-backed company folds, who gets paid back first?
Sad situation but I have recently resigned from a startup I helped turnaround and bring to profitability. Unbeknownst to me, there were payables I was unaware of and it was too much to surmount, even with good cash flow. Aside from being wrecked emotionally (I thought "we did it!"), I am now reckoning what will be the outcome. They currently owe me multiple 6 figures of cash, and I thought I was the only one "accruing", but there are/were plenty of others.

In any case, at the time of a liquidation (due to IP, I think there is a good chance of acquisition) who gets paid back first- Vendors or investors?

This doesn’t even make any sense. A modern OS and application can deal with whatever resolution you throw at it, the text in visual studio code will look just as big on a high DPI as in lo DPI. The only time native is a relevant term is if the application has a fixed resolution and must be up scaled, down scaled, or resized to its native resolution. Those are mostly games, real applications that manipulate text shouldn’t be included (though some old legacy ones are, I don’t use any of those).

iMacs by default are not downscaled unless you are using fixed resolution applications. Simply put, there is no reason needed for scaling.

Are knobs for scaling the primary network already well understood? They are limited. Block size and block frequency. So shouldn’t we delay irreversible changes to primary layer until we understand the additional capacity and knobs of second layer solution?
In addition to 100ms being very noticable, the problem with such "it isn't noticeable" arguments is that n such implementations get layered and soon you have a pretty egregious situation.

As a lazy example, I happen to have Excel open on macOS -- whenever I try to format a cell the format screen takes just shy of 4 seconds to appear. How is that even remotely possible? Tens of billions of instructions per second...leaves me waiting whenever I set a single cell to display as a number.

Memory utilization has the same problem. Those many allocations are meaningless individually, but pretty soon we have an idle and unnecessary "Adobe Desktop Service" sitting in the background soaking up almost 2GB.

I set up a small charity's site I maintain to use GitHub pages and Jekyll. The in-browser editor for markdown is good enough for the non-technical users, and GitHub pages takes care of rebuilding the site. The revision history is handy in case someone does something weird and we need to undo it.

I believe that GitLab pages offers something similar that also supports Hugo, but I opted to use GitHub+Jekyll as I personally find it significantly easier to custom-build a website than with Hugo (I really struggled with on some basic stuff, e.g. I had a lot of blank pages at dir roots (e.g. /something/goes/here would have blank pages at something/ and something/goes/ etc)). Hugo feels over-complicated to me.

I typically write about things I want to tell people about. Maybe we had an interesting lunchtime conversation, something unusual came up, I'll read about it more and write a post.

Or maybe there's a decision I'm making: I'll write up how I'm thinking about it, where I am so far, and publish that. Often I get good feedback on these posts that makes me think about the problem differently.

I try to notice when I get ideas that would make good posts and write them down. Then, in the evening, I'll sit down, look over the ideas, and see if there's anything I feel like writing about.

> XORing RDRAND into an apparently random bitstream is thus safe because the bitstream is now random if either RDRAND works as intended OR your apparently random bitstream is indeed random.

That's making assumptions. For instance, it wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility for the compromised CPU to also track which registers contain a result produced from RDRAND, and make (X XOR RDRAND) produce a predictable result. After all, RDRAND is already an undefined number, so the system can legitimately decide later what it would like it to be. Yes, it would require more silicon in the registers, re-ordering and dispatch system, and ALU, but it would be feasible.
Agreed. I like me an Impossible Burger now and again, but I eat lentils and beans every day and make my own burger patties out of them (using quinoa, like you mentioned). Some gluten free panko breadcrumbs to help it all stick together.

Not trying to be cheeky, but that you understand immediately that I’m not talking about happiness here tells you that success =/= happiness. We can argue over what we should consider successful, but in the context of what Sam Altman is saying it’s unproductive: we all know Sam is talking about professional success, and most of us also know there is more to life than professional success, but we (collectively) have been so burned out (either by not achieving it, or by missing out in our lives achieving it) chasing after professional success that have a knee jerk reaction to anyone talking about it.

I also think it’s presumptuous of us to think Sam and whoever else did pursue success ambitiously are not happy - everyone’s definition of happiness is their own.

It will all depend on your contract and how they raised money. If they raised using debt instruments the investors will have lots of leverage.

In almost all cases (bankruptcy or acquired) your time will be discounted as "insider" (you were helping the turn around) time and you might get some back but it won't be nearly what you have invoiced, unless the company is acquired for a sum greater than the debts. In that case you will be made whole. There are exceptions to what I just said though, and most of that will depend on your contract and how they raised money.

Been on this train myself, it is an interesting situation. Best thing to do is get an attorney early and make sure the appropriate paperwork is in place to secure your spot at the table.
But then why blog? Why not just journal in a notebook or on your "notes" app and be done?
> However, I firmly believe that you are wrong in your last paragraph. You can argue determinism, but that is lazy. I escaped poverty and it was a lot of work. I chose to do that and I got lucky.

It doesn't need to be determinism. You have no control over random events as well. How exactly did you decide to chose the way you did? Why were you able to stick to the hard work part?

Of course you can assume some supernatural you that is able to make decisions for your brain. But there is no evidence for that. As far as we know, how the neurons are connected and how they interact with the rest of the environment determines all our longings and our decisions.

I'm going to sound pedantic but it sounds like they are plant-based. Veganism is a belief system not to exploit animals - you simply don't see animals as food anymore. Been plant based for a year myself but I'd consider myself vegan the second half as I did more research. I get asked a lot "does being around meat at the holidays tempt you?" and my answer is along the lines of "as tempted as I am to eat the family dog".

One of the main quality-of-life improvement of Rust over C and C++ IMO is the crate system, and how you don't have to worry about codes from other files not being inlined properly (there's LTO now but it's always more limited than compile-time inlining and optimization).

No need to move things to headers (no headers at all, actually), worry about forward declarations and exposing internal bits of the API etc... Just write the code normally and naturally and let the compiler figure it out. No need to consider subtle performance tradeoffs when deciding where to write the code, just put it where it makes sense.

It will be cheaper eventually, hopefully sooner rather than later. The only reason meat is as cheap as it is at the moment is because government subsidies on corn keep it that way. If we really paid the true cost including all of the water used to produce the grain and all that, it would be far more prohibitively expensive.
You can definitely do it in a private journal and would likely experience many of the same effects. But putting it online gives other people a chance to learn from it.
There are multiple reasons.

1. Using instructions that don't exist on a given CPU will cause the program to crash.

2. `core::arch` exists so that stable Rust programs could make use of SIMD instructions for performance (in particular, `regex` crate). They are very low level, and there is a lot of those, so whether any given SIMD intrinsic is safe or not wasn't considered as those functions exist for safe SIMD abstractions to use - which is advantageous, as Rust cannot really do breaking changes, while a library could easily release a new version without breaking the users (which will still use the old version).

Reading through the comments proves different strokes for different folks.

It took me quite a while to find a laptop I'm completely happy with. I ended up with a (late-2019) Razer Blade Stealth (with gtx1650). I do run the internal screen at 1080p (at 100%) and I couldn't imagine running it at 4k. My older 13" macbook has higher resolution, but you end up having to scale it anyway (In reality, I think it's actually doubled, then scaled back). On a 13", a good quality 1080p screen (to me) is the way to go - anything higher needs scaled.
"People who are excited by posthumous fame forget that the people who remember them will soon die too. And those after them in turn. Until their memory, passed from one to another like a candle flame, gutters and goes out.

I was about 11 and my mom fled a abusive relationship. Didn't really have a plan but we started in Oregon and ended up in Utah. We were getting survivors benefits from Social Security and ran out of cash. So we had to kill a few weeks in until the next check came in.

So we stayed at a battered woman's shelter in Cedar City. Lovely place, lovely people. Everyone helped out cooking. It was a small place, maybe 20 woman and children there and a few staff.

But one night my mom volunteered to make a cake. I remember this vividly. It was a Cherry Chip cake from a box and there was a thing of vanilla frosting. I ended up adding the ingredients and mixing them up. So the cake goes in the oven and bakes and something is wrong. I forgot to add eggs into the batter. So we ended up with gross sludge.

People were nice about but you could tell everyone was really disappointed. And cake was a luxury, it wasn't like we could go out and grab another one.

I'm going on 20+ years of mailing them cash with a note saying to buy cake.
