An LP style that somehow reflected the various graphs of a program (control flow, inheritance, etc.) might be very interesting! I'm not sure what it would look like, but it sounds like a starting point for experimentation.

A big program could be broken into modules -- as we already do -- and each module (or its sub-modules) could be documented in a literate style, independently from the other modules. Maybe the graphs of the program (or at least, the graphs of its highly-connected modules) could be presented as alternate trails, indices, tables of contents, etc., each with its own accompanying narrative overview. It sounds gnarly, but not impossible! On the other hand, losing linearity altogether seems to be an anti-goal for an inherently narrative programming style like LP. If you're telling a story (about code, or anything else), eventually you have to put one sentence before the next. At some level of granularity, you have to commit to straight lines.

When he wrote his book, it's clear that Knuth was very much aware that LP was an unusual, and possibly crazy, idea. The book is written in a humble style, like an invitation to explore a design space with him, and not as a prescriptive text. For example, I think the fact that he included McIlroy's full critique in the book speaks to his intentions. I guess my point is that Knuth would probably love that you're challenging his ideas and exploring the design space with him, rather than dismissing LP outright.
Yep. Tons of documentation and paperwork trail too. We had some silver epoxy slowly degrade (loose conductivity) over 3 years. It was used to put down some thin film RF attenuators, thus the ground lifted and attenuation was lost (slightly), possibly affecting an AGC loop. Had to go back and rework units that were already mothballed for launch, or else (possible) latent failures.

I’m glad I no longer do that shit; couldn’t pay me enough.

Why does Google feel the need to censor any conservative content? The right to censor doesn't have to culminate in actual censorship without cause.

Double speak is on full display here: self certified ethical, moral, freedom loving, anti authoritarians are the first to indulge in thought policing.

Moreover, this kind of censorship plays out on the daily across tech, while the companies involved lie about not being biased, with a straight face. It's all too Orwellian

This is nothing like the transition to Intel, which offered a huge benefit to the 95% of users who were trapped in the Windows ecosystem.

In the last 8 years or so, Apple's big ideas for the Mac have been complete duds (the trashcan Mac Pro, their entire laptop lineup from 2015 to 2020...)

Mac OS X recently dropped support for 32-bit software, and this should have freed up their OS engineers. Instead, the most recent release of Mac OS (10.15, Catalina) is widely viewed as one of the worst releases in recent memory.

I don't want an ARM Mac. I want Apple to refocus on the basics of Mac hardware and software.
I like buying a whole duck and trimming the fat and skin off so I get duck fat (lard) and duck cracklings!
I really enjoy working with the Mac and am very productive with it, but this would most likely represent the end of the road for me to use it in a professional capacity.

One of the tools that I require to do my job, a development environment for an ERP system, is a Windows application. It's a closed-source commercial application. The likelihood of it getting ported to MacOS is zero, so it's always going to require me to run Windows in some capacity in order to use it.

There are three ways I see this tool working on an ARM-based Mac:

* MacOS emulates enough of the Intel instruction set that VMware still runs. And doesn't kill it in the next version like they did the PowerPC emulation after the Intel switch.

* VMware runs but gives me a virtual ARM CPU which runs an ARM version of Windows which emulates an Intel CPU. I'm not sure what the ARM virtualization story is, so this may not even be a thing,

* I keep an Intel machine under my desk and use RDP. This is somewhat cheating and it's unlikely that work would be willing to pay for two machines.

On the flip side, Windows 10 seems to be getting really good, so switching actually wouldn't be that bad. WSL will basically give me all of the command-line tools that I need, Hyper-V can meet my virtualization needs (though I won't require it like I do on the Mac), and all of my other tools are available on Windows.

2020 wow classic gold for sale with Up to $10 off for WOW Classic Blackwing Lair
World of Warcraft Classic added a series of new content in the latest update, one of the most typical is the opening of Blackwing Lair, a 40-player raid dungeon.The players are required to Buy wow classic gold cheap and go deeply into the Blackrock Mountain to deal with the scheming Nefarian, who is the son of the infamous Deathwing. Surely, he will be the new challenge for the players of Azeroth.

Since Nefarian is good at experimenting with the blood of the Dragon Flights to create unstoppable warriors, there are seven powerful bosses in the raid, only after defeating all of them can the players approach the Black Dragon, and end Nefarian's bid for dominance.

After clearing the Blackwing Lair raid in WOW Classic, the players can be allowed to complete the Tier 2 armor sets and receive the powerful eight-piece bonuses, letting everyone know that you have conquered Blackwing Lair.

Beyond these reputation rewards, the players can also lead into the dark passages of the Temple of Atal'Hakkar to complete deeper quests.

It can be imagined how difficult to complete the challenges, but it is incredible that the first one to clear the Blackwing Lair only spent 42 minutes and 21 seconds from Firemaw realm and Calamity.

Following with the Blackwing Lair raid, there are some regular quests to add in WOW Classic. The players who are above level 50 can go to any major city and be sent to the Temple of Atal'Hakkar, once completing the required challenges, everyone can gain several rewards including three raid items, the Argent Dawn, Timbermaw Hold, Thorium Brotherhood, Silverwing Sentinels and so on.

I had a lot of fun creating a full featured & modern look & feel application using Excel’s VBA runtime as my platform. Sure... I had to create everything from scratch, but learned so much while doing it. Kind of miss it at times since I now work with Java.

By the time I moved jobs, the codebase was +30k lines and even built an auto-updater, auto-installer, diagnostic, and AD type of authentication for the app, but most importantly saved tens of thousands of hours by automating reporting, analysis, detect errors, and querying that analysts, accounting, and some BI’s would do as part of their normal work.

VBA is great for analysts to work in Excel all day & every day who want to get into programming a little more, but want to have it apply directly to their daily work.

Now.... I wish Access does die...

Would ARM macs have some emulation or nativeish support for all the existing software out there?

I remember my first intel Mac having support for PowerPC apps was really important to me.
Windows 10 is adware unless you pay a lot for enterprise or constantly disable and uninstall all the garbage MS pushes down on you.
This article is mostly speculation (although based on rumors from reliable sources), but they do speculate that the "pro" level machines will stay intel for a long while.
I recently discovered the "watch" command. With an autosave plugin in Vim, I can put some "print()" statements in my code and run "watch python3 mycode.py" in a small Tmux pane to get nearly instant feedback as I debug something. Or if I'm refactoring, I can do "watch pytest". It's pretty sweet.
Your argument doesn’t make much sense to me. I want them to focus in good software, too. But Apple likes to make all the key elements of their stuff, and this would give them significant independence.

Seems like a very Apple move.
Well, the goal isn't necessarily to reduce doing stuff. The goal is to price the costs of doing stuff appropriately. That incentivizes two things:

1. Doing less stuff
2. Doing the same amount of stuff with fewer negative side effects.

In the long run we'll get 2, and in the short run we'll get 1. And simply applying the tax will allow that transition to be seamless and efficient.

Show HN: Intuitive Code Search
In the 1995 movie 'Hackers' there was a scene (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RL9yCWv7NS0) where they're talking about RISC being the future. The hype about RISC was strong at the time but a few years later that scene seemed dated. Now here we are in 2020 and ARM keeps taking over more and more of the world.

Here's how you'd exec:

execv("/path/to/binary", (char *[]){"binary", NULL});

And here's a way to do that without exec:

A bit uglier, but not all that much harder.

Degraded purely temporarily. Flashbulb effect in a dark room, lingering phosphene neon-blur overlay for 2-3 minutes. Not damaged forever, retinal burn. Sorry. bad language on my part.

I do not believe you can damage eyes because of reflected sunlight off planets or moons, through a telescope. If somebody can find a fresnel lens fire-starter for moonlight, I'll learn to smoke midnight cigars to light them.

But you definitely can suffer temporary light adaption loss, from the huge difference between what you see in the scope or binoculars, and what you see with full eyes, in the wide. It was 40 years ago, I wouldn't even know what kind of lens was on the eyescope. Saturn was maybe 1/5th of the visual field? Binoculars, 30x or 50x you're already looking at segments of the Moon, not the entire face I think.

What's your index of "better quality"?

By others (generality, speed of implementation) he does not.

These things have been in Apple ever since the original Macintosh. In that case it was 'one mouse button, so simple'. Except to make the system usable as other systems with multiple button mice, they added a whole load of keyboard shortcuts mimiced how the multibutton mice worked, which ended up being far more complicated than just adding another button to the mouse.
New Macs already have powerful ARM and Intel processors together, though not on one chip…
Promptly meaning as soon as they find out, which is likely nearly instant these days for large services.

Comodo issued bogus certs, so did MCS. It's happened a few times over the years.
Specifically, the Intel manual makes the following important points, one involving an `mfence;lfence` combo:

* If software requires RDTSC to be executed only after all previous instructions have executed and all previous loads are globally visible, it can execute LFENCE immediately before RDTSC.

* If software requires RDTSC to be executed only after all previous instructions have executed and all previous loads and stores are globally visible, it can execute the sequence MFENCE;LFENCE immediately before RDTSC.

* If software requires RDTSC to be executed prior to execution of any subsequent instruction (including any memory accesses), it can execute the sequence LFENCE immediately after RDTSC. This instruction was introduced by the Pentium processor.

rdtscp is usually a bit more disruptive, and cpuid is probably 100 or 1000 times more disruptive.
Note that the first is used by at least an order of magnitude more people.
