I think it's fine to make users wait, or even give them a poor experience. I usually go for things were users have already hacked together a solution; the alternative is that they keep hacking even if they'd rather just outsource the work to someone else. If you're working in a field where plenty of competitors have IPv6 support, then copying isn't really your main problem.

You could simply release it first, then add support later when there are a lot of complaints on it. My preferred approach is to avoid paid marketing until there are no more complaints, but launching should happen early to collect complaints.
"but he did plead guilty". Also take that with a grain of salt. Often plea deals create quite an incentive to plead guilt even when innocent. "Go to trial, risk 20 years in prison branded as a child porn purveyor. Or plead guilty, cooperate as a witness, we'll charge you with a lesser crime that will have you out of prison in 3 years"
Where did you get this idea the normal devs couldn't program Windows CE with C++. There are tons of open source C++ Windows CE apps from as far back as the 90s written in C++.
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, it seems I need to redesign the site to make it easier to navigate and feel less empty. I like your suggestions about adding popular topics.

Thanks for letting me know about the error. Right now Mathpendium has around 1000 entries, and so it is easy for some errors to slip through the cracks.

I was debating about whether or not to require an account to make a contribution. As you mentioned, making an account helps decrease the chance of spam. However, I am open to allowing anonymous contributions, and it is good to know that others would appreciate that.
I use pg logical in production today on a small system (I'm only a couple 100 gig). This tool looks really promising. However, for my core data I look at 6mo of replica realworld load in test before putting anywhere close to live.

Also, for some bits we also run some near shit-hack custom pg extensions in production so...I'm not risk adverse.
The author did use a multi stage build.
Fair enough! I generally think of cell phones when I see the word "voicemail" because we never used that term to describe the messages left on the answering machine my family had when I was a kid; they were just "messages", which at the time was unambiguous when talking about phones :)

Do SoftBank have a lower success rate with their bets than other VCs?
Attach event listeners and handle those parts with JS. For internationalization, template on the server side, sending a different bundle for user agents in different countries. CSS is enough to fill the gaps with other internationalization concerns like rtl.

The platform provides enough to do forms. It's one of the few things the web is good at. It has been around for ages and works. I mean, what I'm using to type this is a plain HTML form. It doesn't need a massive JavaScript framework that heats up my CPU on every keystroke.
Deploying Orleans to Kubernetes
The Effect of Improving App Ratings. What Happened Next?
> I could write a program in assembly that is simply 1000000 triplets of (load, add, store) instructions, each reading from a sequentially-increasing memory location. We could think of it like a fully-unrolled addition loop. My CPU, operating at 3GHz, supposedly should complete this program in ~1ms (3 million instructions running at 3 billion instructions per second), but (spoiler alert) it doesn't. Why?

I'll bite. Why doesn't it? And how long do you expect it to take? I'll claim that with a modern processor a simple loop in C probably beats this speed. If you want, we can test afterward to see if our respective theories are true.

The linked article claims that single-threaded reading speed of sequential memory (on his machine) is 11 GB/s. This means a 3 GHz system has a throughput of a little over 3B per cycle (11/3). This means that ever 3 cycles we can pull down 11B, which should be enough to comfortably finish our 1M loads in 1 ms. With 64-bit integers, it's getting a little tighter, but still should be possible.

I guess on a technicality you might be right, but not in a good way. If you were to fully unroll the assembly, you might be able to slow things down enough such that you were running at less than 1 integer per 3 cycles. A simple loop is going to be faster here. Done right (fused SUB/JNZ) the loop overhead should actually be zero. Depending on what you are doing with the store (in place, or to another sequential array?) I'd guess you'd be able to get down to less than 2 cycles per 32-bit int with simple C, and pretty close to 1 cycle per int if you went all out with software prefetching and huge pages.
There are tons of things at Costco you can buy for daily consumption that don't come in a 10-pack (bulk), even for millennials with no kids. Ultimately, everyone looks for value and Costco is very good at providing value.
I believe that function composition is the heart of the matter. Side effects and immutability are just the consequences of trying to create a primitive that can be used under function composition.

>There was no diplomatic immunity in this instance.

Well that's just wrong.

There's diplomatic immunity unless the visiting country explicitly waves it. It's not based on some hypothetical legal theory of whether she should have it or not. The visiting country either waves it, or doesn't.

In this case, the police requested a diplomatic waiver and were denied.
Personally I would test this in a greenfield project first, unless this solved a serious problem I was facing.
Hit the nail on the head.

I tried em all, Costco, BJ's, Sam's Club, Aldi, Walmart, Target. Nobody can tell me how it is, I've actually tried it and Costco is by far the best place for my family to shop. Want a raincoat? Oh yeah rainy season they had a North Face beautiful blue jacket for $80.

How is the key handling being done? If the .identity file is signed, then workstations will need to look up the key on some keyserver to see if the key has been revoked. This also limits use to online-only.

Without key revokation and online-only, ex-employees plugging in their home directories and regaining their employee privileges, because the trusted .identity file says they are in the staff group.
I didn't know about this new library but from my benchmarks it was a night and day difference moving to Immutable data structures all the way down. I understand not wanting to recommend it to newbies, but it's actually good.
"[..] a study in the Lancet estimated back on January 25th that 75,000 people had already been infected and that the virus was doubling every 6.4 days — which would suggest that more than 300,000 people may now be infected with the virus."

Doesn't this blatantly ignore the fact that the infection would have run its course in many of those people by now?
> Unfortunately, finding these kinds of products is hard, and I don't quite understand why.

I'll reckon a guess: most companies aspire to differentiate themselves and retain customers by building brands.

The alternative is race-to-the-lowest-price commodification and continual, cutthroat competition.

They sell a ton of whole bean coffee. To the point that they have coffee grinders at the front of the store for people who want ground coffee. Not sure where you were looking.

I was looking on the shelves that were stocked with (ground) coffee. If there is a separate aisle for whole bean coffee I didn't bother looking for it -- I dislike the unlabeled aisles and don't want to wander through a huge warehouse looking for a needle in a haystack.

Granted I only skimmed the brands I knew I wasn't interested in (e.g. Starbucks) so there may have been some whole bean coffee on the shelves that I wouldn't have bought in the first place. I definitely haven't seen customer use coffee grinders though. It could also come down to differences in what the warehouses stock, but I'm not going to drive all over the Bay Area to find a Costco with whole bean coffee.
I used NixOS for 6 months and dropped it for the same reasons. I absolutely love the idea of my entire system being configured through text files, and being easily reproducible, but the amount of work you have to put in to get anything working in that distribution is insane.

Maybe we're just not there yet.
When my kid was about 3 he had a nanny who was a circus performer and dedicated unicyclist. So my 3 yo could unicycle (with a cute tiny unicycle) before he could bike.

The nanny said he was a “mountain unicycler”. I thought it was an absurd exaggeration until he showed us a video that had been made of him and a friend doing stunts on a cliff face. We began to worry about his sanity...Luckily my wife considered that a positive thing.

This is not him but some of the kinds of stuff I am talking about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkppaV-gQXU

It's good to see those arbitrarily bestowed with celebrity articulate big picture pains if they can't articulate specific solutions. Better than vapid statements, clichés or ego-stroking.

I can only dream that someone who gets enough multi-platform viewers will mention not just that climate change is real but that global net negative emissions including Carbon Capture & Sequestration (CCS) are vital to begin now. Two of the most obvious of thousands of possible solutions is to begin kelp farming where it's already growing like crazy, such as in the Atlantic between the Yucatan in Mexico and West Africa, the other is iron seeding when conditions are right to rapidly expand phytoplankton blooms. ~3,200 Gt of CO2 are in the atmosphere right now, and that needs to be ~2,100 Gt to reach 280 ppm.. an excess of 1.1 trillion metric tonnes / 1.1e15 kg / 1.1e18 g. That's about 10x the total current biomass on Earth. It's a lot but it has to be removed, and to do so will require doing big things at scale (i.e., self-replicating floating factories), working with nearly all other countries and getting it done. If people can build the pyramids, go to the Moon and eliminate malaria, certainly people can figure out how to make a lot more oceanic biomass and sequester it.
> I find it pretty stunning that Nix has decided to drop support for OS X over ideological reasons like this.

What are you talking about? There’s no such decision. The first comment mentions it as a possibility, but the rest of the (very long) thread is exploring different ways to solve the issue.
Marvelous story. I would like to know more about this man from Eritrea.
Two things you seem to be forgetting:

1) SoftBank doesn't give up on companies it believes can be fixed. Look at Sprint as an example. So when a SoftBank company fails, it's not a simple oversight.

2) The narrative about WeWork wasn't created, it was real. Bullshit valuation of a company whose few competitors were worth less despite ostensibly executing better. SoftBank gets to wear that one. You can't exactly call a multi-billion-dollar loss a "distraction."
This seems incredibly naive. Who would register a VPS hosting different kinds of the most illegal content imaginable using their real name or IP address? Even if they thought hidden services were impenetrable, there are always other possible slip-ups you could make which could disclose the server's real IP, and of course they'd be ignorant to think any security measure is impenetrable, including Tor.

DPR made extremely careless mistakes, too, to the point that even a random amateur investigator could've identified him, using only Google.

It's shocking how many of these people aren't caught sooner when they don't even know OPSEC 101.
Agile as Trauma
Formal Verification of Multiple Interacting Smart Contracts with VeriSolid [pdf]
I don’t know that having a clear mission adds much to happiness at work unless it’s coupled with proper execution; otherwise it’s just a stream of frustrations. Also I’d imagine most blue collar jobs have pretty clearly stated missions, so to speak. Make people’s yards beautiful. Build beautiful houses.

Based on personal observations, I’d say the thing that makes the biggest difference in terms of work satisfaction/“happiness” is pride in your work. In the past few months alone I’ve had numerous delightful conversations with cafeteria workers about the food they are serving; and some with goodwill workers on the store layout they’ve helped plan and items they’ve curated. Contagious enthusiasm, definitely more than I experience in planning meetings and company all hands.

Too early to tell. Funds have 10 year lifespans...

But their biggest bets are heavily in the red and they are having trouble raising their second fund, which means LPs are doubtful they can return top quartile VC returns.
It’s maybe less of a problem than you think. If you simply want to call a method on two different types you can often just do it. Type annotations generally don’t help with performance, and any type checking is only going to happen at run time anyway.

Inheritance does help with documenting what functions are compatible with what types. I think that could be better in Julia, and things like abstract type hierarchies and traits help a bit. Concrete inheritance could be nice, but that seems to also enable some pretty bad OOP practices.

You can return food. They don’t like it and if you do it too much they’ll stop allowing you to return food.

But I’ve definitely returned food that I didn’t like.

Once they even let the guy in front of me return an empty container. He said he had to eat the whole thing to decide he didn’t like it.

How to 10x your startup equity exposure
Creating a docker image is one of many things Nix do. IMO one of the killer feature is actually providing a reproducible dev environment.

Coronavirus and the World Bank's Catastrophe Bonds

This explains why chef started yelling at work 4am PST. Upgrading virtualenv via pip install --upgrade virtualenv would fail. This sort of broken upgrade also happened with pip itself recently and required a manual fix, package maintainers refused to revert the release.
Basically, because Swift has to support separate compilation of shared libraries.

The @inlinable attribute is in fact implemented by serializing the high-level IR of a function as part of the module's interface; but doing this for all functions would be a non-starter, because it would place unacceptable restrictions on binary framework evolution.

You can think of @inlinable as being somewhat similar to defining a function in a C header file. Unlike C++ templates, Swift generics don't require all definitions to be available at compile time, because dictionary passing is used to compile generic code when monomorphization cannot be performed.
Google vs. Siri – Game Over
This could cause more centralization of the web. It's likely that other TLDs will follow since .com is one of the cheaper ones and the most commonly sought.
In my area Costco gas is usually the cheapest, but it's not always the cheapest by amounts like 50 cents. Its usually more on the order of 20 cents cheaper. The next cheapest stations share some similarities with Costco though -- they all tend to be unbranded gas stations. These don't usually have the agreements that branded stations have, where they have to buy a certain % of their supply from the brands refineries. So Costco tends to be buying the cheapest gas available at the time, has no brand-name overhead, and on top of that, purposely keeps their profit low to get more people joining. Another thing that Costco does, not just with gas but with everything, is they only accept their partnered credit cards. Their merchant fees are likely much lower, and as Costco does, they just pass that onto you.

So Costco is paying less, and keeping less (if any) profit. The net result is that their gas is appreciably cheaper.
It's literally correct, unless China annexed Singapore.
I agree. And it's really, really sad. I have just switched to Debian with i3 and in so many ways it amazing. I have the most incredible shortcuts set up for managing my additional displays and sound devices, all run with bash scripts. I've managed to set up Syncthing to completely replace my reliance on cloud-based storage and I can do desktop gaming from in Linux or switch to windows by simply typing "windows" in a terminal. The breadth of open source source and the ability to run windows applications if necessary... it's just amazing. But it has been hella difficult to solve simple issues that for windows/mac os just work out of the box. A typical user is overburdened in Debian. Ubuntu is pretty sweet though, and with flatpaks, snap packages, and appImages becoming the norm, maybe it's only a matter of time before widespread adoption... for gamers we're surely on the cusp, Steam's proton is incredible.
Sure that is valid view.

It would be incredibly biased to vote me down and discount the other supporting evidence that points to the fact it also conveys the possibility that he and others don't see him as a doctor.
Recently bought a high end TV from Costco even though it was 100 dollars more. I just trust that Costco will do right by me if anything goes south.
Sorry for not being upbeat!

I am wondering why the world still does not seem to care about it. Why do we have to wait until every city gets infected? Why we can't stop travelling? Eventually, when it spreads to a city, the quarantine must be the only way... but why we aren't preventing that ourselves? The politicians does not really seem to care (in the bunkers)? Individual, consumer society with no interest and without resources, civil routine and real impact to the events is crazy to me. Even a couple of days ago WHO was thinking about restarting the flights to China. It's just WTF to me.

In last days I can't even read any tech/HN news because it's not news to me compared to this unsolved terrible situation. I don't even understand how this topic is not more visible here in HN and on other places. We need to do something.

One thing that sticks out to me in that video is that they seem to grab the seat like a handle a lot. I'm not sure why this surprised me, as it seems pretty natural, but for some reason it never occurred to me that unicyclists might do that.

My mistake, you're right. I'm thrown off by the idea of someone using a multi-stage build and still having those complaints. Just use/build a final base image that is lean enough for your needs. You're not forced to have any cruft you don't want.
