Ah - you are using c++.

My project is c, which is why I can use tcc.

Anyway, that makes sense; in c++, there's a lot of 'extra' stuff, single lines of code that add up to much more than they would seem. I bet -O1 lets the compiler inline a lot of std::move, smart ptr semantics; elide monomorphisations, copy constructors/RVO; etc. Which just means less code to spit out the backend.
All of the sibling answers are correct, but ignoring another possibility: that the timeline is simply wrong, and SARS2 was present in the US early enough that the "false positive" is in fact a true positive.

Which can't lead to a "true 0%", since there's no such animal. But it could mean that all of the tests gave correct answers, in the trial.
You're right!

I propose that there is an informal difference between pseudocode, and a specification for a machine: Typically, pseudocode doesn't have a mechanical compiler.

It may not have a mechanical compiler for some technical reason (such as inconsistent syntax or impossible semantics), or it might just be too much bother to write a real compiler and sort out how to make all possible program work.

But yes, going by this, the moment one writes a pseudocode-to-FRACTRAN compiler, it ceases to be pseudocode and becomes a domain-specific language for writing FRACTRAN programs.

+1!
"Every metric that matters to us has increased substantially from the rewrite, and we even identified some that were no longer relevant to us, such as number of bugs, user frustration, and maintenance cost. Today we are making some of the code that we can afford to open source available on our GitHub page. It is useless by itself and is heavily tied to our infrastructure, but you can star it to make us seem more relevant."

This is gold.
> Stretched for resources, officials took part of the money from Youngstown’s water and wastewater funds, which had been earmarked for sewer and water projects. They also approved massive tax breaks for the property. And they spent an additional $360,000 to purchase and demolish the homes of roughly a dozen residents who lived within the footprint of the future Chill-Can plant.

That's not going to come back to haunt them.

> More than three years later, Youngstown is still waiting.

I wonder what's the hold up?

> Infrastructure problems, such as aging utility lines, have delayed the project...

Ah, there it is!

If there is a better definition of stupid I'm not sure what it is. It's been a consistent story of towns shorting the budget to cover tax breaks, usually at the expense of the school budget, to entice companies to migrate there. Then when they do they find out the workforce isn't educated enough for the tasks, or the infrastructure is in terrible shape, or it's simply a scam.

The length of one's life is uncertain.

Death is certain.

The Buddha recommended that both lay and monastic followers perform the following recollections on a daily basis:

1. I am sure to become old; I cannot avoid ageing.

2. I am sure to become ill; I cannot avoid illness.

3. I am sure to die; I cannot avoid death.

4. I must be separated and parted from all that is dear and beloved to me.

5. I am the owner of my actions, heir of my actions. Whatever actions I do, good or bad, of these I shall become the heir.

The first four recollections require no faith and can be perceived in the here and now.

I find that regularly contemplating the above recollections are helpful in reminding me of my own mortality.

They also prompt me to question my direction in life and what I'm working on. It's often easier to make frequent but smaller course corrections than really big changes.

With all that said, I still find myself falling into the illusion that I can control what happens in my life and that I'm building something permanent. We can certainly influence aspects of our lives, but at the end of the day it's all impermanent, beyond our absolute control, and will pass away.
America’s Test Kitchen (TV) / Cooks Illustrated (books) will scratch your itch.

My foodie friend and I use a lot of their recipes.

The cool thing is that sometimes you will disagree with their preferences (totally normal), so you can use one of their variants that has the attributes that you want. Or similarly, you can see how changing certain ingredients changes the outcome and personalize your version of the recipe accordingly. It definitely saves some experimental batches.
But in a case like this the launderers could just be rich princes trying to move money out of the country without domestic blowback, but otherwise not breaking any laws, foreign or domestic. If you're Putin or some Venezuelan general, all you really need is a mechanism that flouts currency controls primarily intended to restrain the commoners, plausible deniability, and a sufficiently clean paper trail to satisfy international regulators. Schemes like 1MDB seem to usually go under the radar and are rarely prosecuted, even in the U.S., which is somewhat unique in its long-arm statutes. Anyhow, you may be okay with avoiding dollar-denominated transactions altogether.

Also, I may go ahead and just say it, but I wonder how much Middle Eastern and Chinese money has found its way into the Silicon Valley VC ecosystem, and specifically the degree to which those sources are tolerant of low or even negative returns. Sometimes I daydream about a Middle Easter shell company offering a few million in seed money, perhaps on the condition I provide a nice salary to a princely board member's third-cousin recently graduated from Stanford. Though in truth I'm not sure why they'd even care to involve someone like me, anyhow :(
On a similar note, does anyone know of good resources for beginners for prototyping all the way through small-scale manufacturing of an embedded device?

As a web & backend developer who likes to tinker with Arduino/Teensy style projects, I've always been curious what all would be involved in actually getting some units manufactured, like for a small kickstarter run or something. It seems pretty doable these days to get pcb boards printed and even assembled once you have a final design. What I haven't been able to find much of, is advice along the lines of going from a prototype board like an Arduino or Teensy system, to a productionalized system in terms of both the software and hardware - what platform is easiest to build on (like this advice to use a Linux-based system if you need any networking), how to hook up a bootloader, how to build a system that allows users to update firmware for future bugfixes or features, etc. plus I'm sure there are a million other unknown unknowns I would never even think of.

I don't think theoretical physicists would find these findings to be that interesting. There are a lot of mathematical results that can be somehow applied to physics, but very rarely something interesting comes out of it from physicists perspective. Obviously when it happens, then it can lead to a breakthrough as it happened when Einstein figured out how Riemmann geometry can be applied to GR.

The author himself is kind of uncertain if there are any real consequences comming out of his math:

>>The instability of AdS space-time has major implications for how we understand our own universe. First, since AdS space-time is unstable, it’s “something you will not see in nature,” Moschidis said.<<

>>But “even though AdS is not real,” he said, “it can still lead us to the discovery and study of real phenomena.” <<

I am not sure how our understanding of time-space can be increased by a theory that just does not describe reality.

Maybe the math is somehow useful? Maybe this might explain what happened after Big Bang (maybe instabilities were more common then)? Maybe this is the path to unify QM and GR (in the article it is mentioned that, but with some usual addition of not yet observed additional dimension that can explain everything - the feature of many "string" theories", that didn't give us much.

Transaction fees are driven by transaction volume. The more congested the network, the higher fees will be because there's a limit to how many transactions can fit in a block. If there's normal transaction volume on the network then transaction fees will remain the same. Miners can choose to reject any transactions but equally they'll also be miners who accept any transaction.
I stubbornly refuse to serve JavaScript on my website, but perhaps I can whip up a snippet that you can self-XSS yourself with.
I think releasing the source code and open-source are 2 different things. Paul is an amazing guy, I absolutely cannot argue - he is super cool.

Open-source means I have the license to use it in ways that are defined in an agreement outlined in the specific open source license (say MIT license). Paul provides a bunch of stuff for their users, but I cannot copy his designs and bootloader (which is closed) in a commercial project without taking on liability.

The problem is a philosophical one as well - Half-open or "visible source" projects exploit benefits of the open-source community (engagement, contributions, feedback, etc.) without giving anything back to the community (license to reproduce freely). I have a problem with this. Either make something completely closed source (totally fine) or make it completely open source. Another example is Numworks calculator ("visible source" under CC license, wtf is wrong with these people) : https://github.com/numworks/epsilon/issues/38

The Numworks guys are just getting free labor which is all the enthusiasts working on the code without paying anything back to the community! Completely abhorrent behavior and should be exposed.
If you're wondering why your friends who are into cryptocurrency are in a tizzy, it's related to a model called "Stock-To-Flow" that attempts to post-facto explain the price of Bitcoin (and other liquid assets, like gold) in terms of the rate of production.

Proposed by PlanB [1] it is a source of constant derision/hope/skepticism/dismissal by the Bitcoin community, and the halving of the reward gives it its first non-backtested novel prediction.

Roughly it predicts [2] that the price will settle into a band around 30,000 USD sometime next year.

Is Bitcoin now half as valuable? Did mining it get easier/harder? Less profitable to mine, but existing Bitcoins still have same value as before?

Ask HN: How do you decide on what projects to work on at the intermediate level?
Calling Bitcoin the universe’s scarcest asset is laughable. Leaving aside the hyperbole of invoking the “universe” to rank the scarcity of something terrestrial, there are many conventional assets that are scarcer than Bitcoin, like Picasso paintings or mansions in Bel Air. Lastly, Bitcoin is not even the” scarcest” cryptocurrency.

Even if you stand to gain if Bitcoin’s price increases, you should not be trying to generate hype for it here on HN.
It's a disincentive towards mining bitcoin, yes. However, everybody knew this was coming now, so any competent mining operator should have already accounted for it in their financial/business planning.
You can do most of that without ESLint for any programming language with an IDE. Speaking about jetbrains intellij/pycharm from my own experience.
Yeah, prettier rocks. I was skeptical for a long time and if I’m honest and think about it I still don’t like some of the formatting choices it makes, but I don’t notice because of how fluid and pleasant it makes writing code. As an aside, often the “workarounds” result in clearer code, e.g. long formulas getting split up weirdly leads to me splitting stages of the calculation into named variables, which actually reads much better when I return to it months later.

No worrying about formatting code as I type, no worrying about checking style on PRs... definitely worth the trade offs for me, I enable it on every project I work on now.

The Teensy line is great for folks like me, who are doing one-off projects and who know more about software than hardware. There are good libraries, a helpful developer, and a supportive community.

If I were doing production, they'd probably be overkill (and too expensive), but they save me time and effort and are easy to use.
I took this test this Friday (Quest Direct) in NYC and tested negative.

In late Feb. I had a 'flu like symptoms' with fever and massive headache for few days. What worried me later is that I had the 'can't taste anything' symptom a week later. No coughing though.

If you read online, you see people swear they had it at some point this winter. So, if you had a 'flu like' symptoms in Feb or early March, perhaps it was just that...

It cost $110 and personally I think it was worth it... (it is a reminder myself to be more careful as I can still get it)...

I believe WebKit source and issue management is on webkit.org; not being on GitHub seems to make sense to me, as (according to Wikipedia) WebKit was released three years before GitHub was founded. This is the Apple release, not KHTML existing (which was another seven years before that).
I suppose it depends on what you consider valuable. Some details will matter more to some people than others.

Essentially, those details you're removing are flavor. Alright, so you don't like the particular flavor here. I'm not going to tell you that you should. There's a certain level of gratuity beyond which I lose appreciation as well. For my part though, I want the experience as envisioned by the author. If I don't like it, I'd rather avoid the content entirely, rather than censor it. This is because, to me, it's all interconnected --- the primary plot, the flavor, all the little details --- everything. I guess I'm a purist. I'm also not the type to pick ingredients out of a dish.

If you want to modify content for your personal consumption though, well, I don't see the harm in that. As you say, it's a personal choice.
Here I thought at least some should be available with Linux and it turns out that only Thinkstations P series and one desktop have Linux as an option.
So, pre halvening -- the average block reward was worth about $100,000. Fees totaled about $5,000.

I don't really understand the economics of this, but it seems there are a few possible outcomes:

A) Prices double because miners refuse to sell at a price that gives them less than $100k a block and demand for coins is inelastic.

B) Fees go up 10x because miners now need to make $50k in transaction fees instead of $5k per block to make up for the lower block reward, and demand for transactions in inelastic.

C) Difficulty and prices drop because neither transaction demand nor coin demand is inelastic, and miners will begin turning off rigs that are no longer profitable at $50k per block.

D) Some combination of the above.

It would be more fair for you to describe the distributed ledger clearing as of no value to you. Because it definitely has a value to some folks.

That said: some other cryptocoins do indeed provide a ledger like bitcoin, still decentralized and trustless, but without mining (and without block rewards).

Could that be a transitional period? Young couples with roommates crammed into shoeboxes live in those conditions as a compromise to be relatively close to their high-paying jobs in an expensive city. The line about "cities losing some of their lustre" resonated with me. We're basically living country life right now (not seeing much people except the odd neighbour, once a week groceries, etc) - I'd much rather do that in a country setting, if this is to continue in the long term.
Interesting to see what will happen to Bitcoin which slashed the supply in half exactly at a time when major currencies have fully open the supply floodgates because of Covid-19.

If the law of supply of demand carries any predictive power, BTC should see a compounded rise.
