In the US, the NTSB does root-cause analysis and makes recommendations to the FAA.

There’s a separation of concerns. The NTSB is solely concerned with finding out what happened. The FBI handles criminal investigations. The FAA is concerned with running air traffic control, regulations, and research.
Reddit's toxicity is a feature, not a bug. If your idea is shit it should be treated as shit.
Again you're hyperbolizing.

The outright toxic projects that developers and city leaders routinely propose run at a least a couple of orders of magnitude above 0.01 percent.

Then there's a huge fat tail of other cases (big box retail, correctional facilities, treatment centers... not to mention freeway expansions and so forth) that, lo and behold -- not everyone who loves within a short radius of is a huge fan of, to say the least.

The point is - it's a grey scale, and you're painting it as a binary. It's not.

I do! Although I'm not sure how it relates to what I wrote nor am I sure why you're taking that condescending tone with me - I assume you do know it's less than constructive.
Reading the comments, I thought I’d jump in to try Apollo again. I recalled it being stifling and yep sure enough, it hasn’t changed:

Basic navigational functionality such as swiping through content from one post to another is not available by default, instead it is behind a paywall.

Look, I totally get if there’s premium functionality such as notifications, better posting functions that you need to charge for it.

But as it exists it has less functionality than the default reddit app in which you can navigate. If you’ve already broken user trust by degrading a basic service I will not trust to pay you for the rest.

Fwiw the study I linked to is case controlled. It does not rely on the population timeseries you mentioned. I don't know the downfalls of case controlled trials, but they are not the same as population timeseries data I am certain.
In recent years, working at a top tech company has become accepted by many as a path to success (if not success itself). Although Robert Jackall did his field research in the 80s in big industry, his work has a lot of great insights into what life is like in the FAANGs.

I'm sold on the zettelkasten method. I've tried zim, cherrynotes, trilium...

I've found two things that matter most for me:
1/ you need an editor where typing latency is low. Below 10ms. Otherwise you will get in a bad mood and make more mistakes. Electron apps need not apply

2/ creating, linking, and finding notes must be fast

On top of that, it must be future proof.

I've found the ideal solution in howl (howl.io). This is a text editor, built in moonscript and with sane default. Typing latency is 6ms, faster than anything else I could find (on linux, non compositing window manager)

The trick for liking (in markdown) is autocompletion. It will autocomplete based on all buffers open. My trick is to run :exec ls (list of files in the project directory) and leave this buffer open. Then ctrl space will autocomplete filenames. The rest is trivial.

Oh God, Howl deserves so much praise. I hope it gets picked up on HN one day. It's only missing a tiny push, having a community around it would be amazing.
What I love in Factorio and dislike in ONI is how hard it is to build closed system that can last for hours in ONI. And it's hard to deconstruct in ONI (esp. when heat and liquid is involves).

Our kids would definitely be worse off without screens. We don't have time to give them their ideal levels and kinds stimulation, and screens are a tool which helps their parents' sanity. Us, as their parents being driven insane would adversely affect these children. One of them has special needs and the other 2 crave constant input. Overall screens are the lesser evil, and they're all doing just fine. It's all contextual and this article is nowhere near holistic enough.
OpenBSD will probably never use ZFS; they like clean code that they can understand and control as completely as possible, and ZFS is a monster of a codebase that replaces whole chunks of the system with its own.

The Dreamcast is by far and large one of my all-time favourite consoles.

SEGA’s level of innovation here was extreme.

From great developer support, online play (even if the Broadband Adapter for Ethernet was extremely rare); the VMU, and an extremely impressive library of quality titles (Skies of Arcadia, Crazy Taxi, Soul Calibur 2, etc) - it was literally a situation that seemed geared to greatness.

If it had a DVD player, I think it literally could’ve saved SEGA, after the awful litany of repeated terrible decisions they made in the mid-90’s. (Here’s looking at you, 32X...)

I was just at A&C games here in Toronto, lamenting to an employee of the demise of SEGA’s consoles - but the Dreamcast, in particular, deserved better than it got.

The Saturn will always have a special place in my heart, though, as an extremely early example of multi-processor architecture (the Saturn technically has 7 processors, each for a different task - 2 GPU’s, CD I/O, sound, etc.)
The output is pretty slim, it's one of the reasons I prefer using haxe over TypeScript when targeting the web – haxe has better dead-code-elimination so output js tends to be smaller and include a greater level of optimisation – check out this example to see what I mean

Oh I’m so sorry, we were expecting “Paxos” for the correct answer. Unfortunately I cannot accept your answer.
I used to love it, but I realized typing latency kills it (being electron). Also, export doesn't help as note links are internal references. So it's not future proof, it's a no for me. It has a great developer though. And the graph visualization is second to none.

PS2 is legitimately really hard. It's both just fast enough that cycle accurate is off the table and probably always will be on conventional processors, and is just barely old enough that it has tons of little special instruction streams that need to be in close sync with each other, sometimes without explicit synchronization in their code.
The Nth digit in this case is digit 0, as the article points out. You're interpreting it as the usual "floating point is inaccurate" article/conversation instead of what it actually is - a surprising detail in the ECMAScript standard.

This is incredible. I think the next step from here - technology wise I mean - is figuring out how devices can tap into this without needing to lose a limb. Implants that can read the signals from a limb to control something else could be the bridge in between what we have now, and brain-computer interfaces.

You know those devices that severely disabled people like the late Stephen Hawking used to interact with his computer? They require only a very small amount of muscle movement to control a switch etc. What if an implant could be put directly into a muscle or a group of muscles (or a a nerve ending somewhere more suitable) so that a tiny movement could trigger some action? It would essentially give humans a set of re-programmable multi-function buttons. Connect it to your phone over bluetooth, and you can setup an action to be triggered by it. How would you filter out regular/involuntary input vs. intentional input? Not sure! But this avenue of development is exciting.

For my project with maybe 30 dependencies in package.json, the incremental build finishes within a second on watch mode when I edit a file, so it's quite fast in that case.
The problem is that the tasks we ask of our software are harder - we now expect them to talk to other computers, not all of which really want to be talked to by random people writing one-off bits of software.
Great work - the Dreamcast brought me many years of fun and I can't wait to check this out on a Raspberry Pi!

"ragging". My favorite 80's term.

No, a bug in the compiler does not introduce such a bug.

A bug in the compiler is a bug in the implementation and does not equate to a bug in the formal spec. It is rather like a fault in a machine or a building arising from a dodgy supplier using below spec materials, or a fault in the manufacturing or assembly process.

TLDR; Math keeps changing because Javascript's spec is weak. Users almost always want the most accurate, most stable and most reliable answer by default. It's the principle of least surprise.

While I mostly agree with your comment (and upvoted you), I think the main problem the author runs into is that Javascript's Math library is underspecified in a bad way. The trig functions have precision that is really only held up by Web Reality, meaning the least precision that the bulk of websites can function under before something breaks and someone starts complaining.

I saw this firsthand. I worked on V8 during the time a number of precision-altering changes were made to its implementation of Math.*. Some had to be reverted because websites did indeed misbehave. I could claim it "wasn't our fault" because we were legally allowed to do so according to the spec....but not sure I want to own that ;-)

Compare this to e.g. Java, which specifies that all math functions in its standard library are accurate to 1up. They absolutely should give you bit-accurate results on every implementation.

So they've open sourced all their clients? The clients weren't the issue. I'm glad to know there is less likely to be a problem with getting data from my computer to their servers ... but what happens on their servers is the issue. How do I know they don't save logs, snoop on data, log DNS requests, etc.? No amount of Open Source software they release will be able to prove that, since we will never know with 100% certainty what software is running on their servers.
> Getting to a solid level of competency in a language actually is not that hard. It just requires dedication and consistent practice.

Though that's why it's hard. Just like eating healthy and exercise isn't hard, just requires dedication, yet notice how few people have a particularly good looking body.

The opportunity cost of learning a language is also immense. I've spent an incredible amount of time listening to and reading Spanish. It just isn't for everybody. It has to be something that makes you happy.

Sure, there were people who ran BeOS full-time. But 'preferable to an enthusiast to Linux in 1997' is too low a bar for 'basis for a consumer OS'.

In any case, NextStep didn't do anything in the short run for Apple -- it took dozens of engineers about four years to turn NextStep into OS X, and it's hard to believe that they couldn't have done the same thing with BeOS.

I think it's very easy to believe if you compare them technically. I'm happy to get into that discussion if you're interested but it seems obvious to me a complete, mature OS that was (at the time) considered fairly advanced technologically, had a track record of being ported to every architecture available (along with a track record of running inside/alongside other environments), plus the team that built and maintained all of that was a saner choice than an unfinished OS. Finishing an OS was precisely the problem Apple had for years and was trying to buy its way out of. BeOS and NextStep were not anything close to the same starting point.

I think the biggest difference was vision: BeOS was shooting for the creative media market, while NeXT's biggest successes had come in very enterprise-ish verticals.

I think there's some truth to this, in that Apple's computers had long been pariahs in business settings and getting out of that rut was a thing Apple wanted to do. I imagine it was a factor. At the same time - there was probably way more actual prosumer and creative professional software for NextStep than there ever was for BeOS and much more importantly - Apple was looking to buy technology, not vision.

Sourcehut makes it easy to run CI for a lot of platforms at once. Helping it support netbsd helps developers target netbsd easily.
If these institutions attempt to control it, then they’re not normative.

It does make perfect sense when the improper use of tenses or grammar break the temporality, spatiality or relationships of the narrative.

Eg. The obvious ones in french: ce/se, ça(cela)/çà/sa... etc. A bit less obvious: “après qu’il ait”, subjunctive after stating a fact or is the subjunctive intended and it wasn’t a fact... etc.

And sometimes it becomes poetic “à l’insu de leur plein gré” when both forms are correct but with completely different meanings.
PCSX3 exists, now, and while I understand the underlying complexities of the PS2’s architecture, I am very curious about the challenges, in particular, of PS3 emulation, especially with regards to the Cell processor.

Anyone with more knowledge that myself with regards to emulation care to chip in? I’d love some insight, or related articles.

Saturn emulation has been a fascination of mine for 15-some years.

It's the gulf of the difference.

Most other subjects, I'd say classes are a bit sub-optimal, but still a great choice if you aren't working with unlimited resources. There's value in hands-on group projects, labs, instructor feedback, etc. And, in most subjects, there are plenty of successful people who did a lot of their learning in a classroom environment.

Language learning, though, I'd say that a classroom is worse than nothing at all, if you're motivated. And not just a little worse, like, a lot worse. In language learning, it seems remarkably consistent that the vast majority of people who achieve much success eschew classrooms entirely.
yes. Debezium is a related project.
Three weeks ago, I used this repo to activate Sidecar on my 2013 trashcan Mac Pro and 9.7” iPad Pro.

That's old news. The new news is that that Flynn effect has stopped around the 80s to 90s for most first world countries - and we don't know why (probably end of the effects of the "low hanging fruit" improvements like better nutrition and more nurturing environments compared to the previous centuries and so on).
The way you learn as an adult is very different from the way you learn as a child. There's nothing compelling about kid shows. I don't know what drives your efforts to learn a language but, mine are about having access to interesting media, literature, conversations, etc. Speaking like a 4 year old only gets you so far.

And if you want to do it, and do it quickly, you've got to do your Anki reps. Acquire lots and lots of vocabulary so you get through the boring part and start enjoying the use of the language.
Coding is often seen as technical/deterministic as the makers are often technical, and so the mediun is typically used in a fashion that affords scaling and regularity.

There is nothing inherently deterministic about coding as a medium of expression; the fact that the basis is binary doesn't decrease the power of expression we can wield vis-a-vis analog media.

Of course there are constraints of the tooling; but whether you are inherently building something that it makes sense to compare to a puzzle is entirely up to you as a creator.
Great tip, will definitely check it out!
I get the feeling that a viable program produced locally was in itself a user feature.

While other global programs could be shoehorned into their use case, it still means poor customizability for specific Korean issues. In particular being optimized for the most common Korean use case vs western designers use cases.

There’s a lot of these local brew word processor in the CJK world, and it’s often more than just language support: there will be hooks for common legal formatting, better handling of common transformations, sometimes a dedicated IME working better for long form writing. It also means more culturally useful templates from first party source, which is surprisingly nice to have IMO.

It’s also interesting that local companies/gov. can pay for additional features or adaptations, have the talent move to other entities in the local economy, etc. which is a way higher hurdle for an Adobe or Microsoft.

Well it’s totally fine to have that opinion and use those devices, personally I wouldn’t though.

Privacy is a niche topic right now and it might stay that way, but I think more and more people will become concerned about what large companies know about them. Each individual service and datapoint is not very critical as you say, combining data from multiple sources and using the data in unexpected ways can quickly reveal very intimate things about a person though. Companies like Amazon, Google and FB do not mainly use your data to “improve your experience”, they use it to nudge you into behavioral patterns that benefit their business model (i.e. look at more ads or buy more stuff). I doesn’t take so much imagination to see how this might harm you e.g. because you develop unhealthy spending habits or waste large amounts of time on social media. And the more data a company has about you, the easier it is for them to manipulate you. So for me it’s not about defending against an unknown attacker, it’s defending against companies using my data to manipulate me, which they might do even if they keep my data very, very secure.
Zero mention in the article - zero - of the fact that most of Europe had been engulfed in civil uprisings for the better part of the previous year, and many of the crushed leaders had emigrated to America.
I long for a program that can “dream”: Do offline analysis of the statistics from the previous run, speculate on different settings and replay them in a sandbox to find out.

With more and more cores coming, I expect to see this sort of thing happen once we accept that we can’t really use all of them.
> If the baby sleeps in the same bed with the mother the risk to the baby is trivial, unless the mother is an a severe alcoholic or high on drugs.

Yep, this is just as obvious as you want it to be.

And yet there's a massive government advertising campaign taking out billboards with the message "if you let your baby sleep with you, you are a bad mother and your baby will die". Check out the posters in the BART system sometime.

I find this incredibly disgusting. Nothing can justify this official message. But there it is out there anyway. The government, spending your money to hurt you.
