I'm genuinely intrigued about what this article is attempting to achieve? Is this like brand building? No offence, but it's quite low effort - a graph of Compensation vs Desire to own my time? Not a completely uninteresting topic, but then just x=y? It's very vague on what he actually does, but is this brand building for deal flow for his investments? Maybe there is some alpha in this small scale investing, but in my experience small businesses aren't just about who puts the money in - they're almost always full time jobs for the founder, and that stops when they sell, making the business much less attractive.
That was my point. :-) It's not clear that hardware bounds checking acceleration is actually a meaningful win.
Unfortunately names get baked into things, so it's not as easy to change as just saying "let's change". "x86_64" is what Linux 'uname' and the gcc triplet naming conventions use, so that's what I go with, because it's the closest there is to a "standard" name in the software ecosystem I spend most time in.

The Economist has high quality news. It has a slight free market/neoliberal bias on economic issues, but for politics it's just the facts.

Wikipedia is actually a decent free news source too, since articles about current events get updated and reviewed frequently.

Is this even considered a humblebrag? I'm glad you're doing well but you have no idea what it's like to be poor so I'd wish you'd shut the fuck up about how noble you are for turning down gobs of money because you don't need it.

You nailed it. I am still trying to figure out what his take is on Covid-19. He doesn't seem to offer any concrete solution/opinion to anything really.
> Hold on now: words do incite violence. Media does incite violence.

Words and media can incite violence. Now that you've stated this fact, it's still up to you to argue that a particular op-ed is inciting violence and, in case, whether that violence can be worse than the violence its author says he wants to prevent or stop.

See? Now we have a debate. You argue some facts, and you have to prove them rationally. Convince others. Find answers to counter-arguments. Bring data. Maybe discover you're wrong after all.
Ask HN: Do you have established business processes?
Out of curiosity, I'd love to hear HN's opinion on business process documentation. Please, share your whatever comes to mind but these are the main points I'd like to hear about:

1. How many processes have been documented within your company?

2. Do people follow the processes?

3. Do you think having formally documented processes is helpful or a hindrance for work?

Your characterization of the linked article could not be more wrong. They write about acknowledging the disorder of sexual attraction to prepubescents (=pedophilia) to prevent child abuse.

Last sentence:

> Acknowledging that pedophiles have a mental disorder, and removing the obstacles to their coming forward and seeking help, is not only the right thing to do, but it would also advance efforts to protect children from harm.

They even explicitly recognized your mistake in the article, which is the tendency to conflate the disorder and the crime.

Personally, I've worked for a few startups and each one seemed to have little to no formal process for every function. Being that they are startups, agility is obviously everything. However, I found that without formal processes (with flowcharts; the whole nine yards) the companies seemed to have a ton of chaos surrounding them. I found it somewhat ironic that managers would tout how impactful The Phoenix Project was but would actively fight any documenting processes because they feared it would make the company too much of an enterprise and not a startup. This is just my own anecdotal perception of the culture of a select number of startups... but it makes me wonder if there is a correlation between the success of a startup and how well they can define what each task is. To answer my own question:

1. About 10% of our processes were defined and documented

2. Most of the time however they were not enforces

3. I think, like most things in life, there is a healthy balance between the two extremes. I think major functions like deployments, SDLC, incident management, and project life-cycles, should be documented but the auxiliary things should have lots of freedom. I think that regardless of the amount of established processes, a startup should be able and willing to adjust them as soon as a better process is established.

Concurrent access to SQLite is the main reason I haven't really looked into Deno. For that matter, I really think that WebAssembly file system implementations should have enough flexibility to be able to work with a SQLite database file in the host OS.

The needs for concurrent SQLite pretty much covers the need for a robust file system.
Who cares, for me it is clear, there is a war against the non black blue collar class and the lower middle class by the elites and the blacks. They just decided that the non black lower classes are racist and therefore it is open season to loot them and kill them.

It is just weird to me that in most racist societies, whether it is the US in the past or Nazi Germany or whatever else, every class was racist but now it is only very specific class. So if a police person kills a black guy during duty he is doing it because of racism, but if a doctor doing it during an operation it is just a mistake. The media just know who is racist by their colour and class.

I am not the elite and not black but at least now I know who are my enemies and who want to destroy my life. I will vote against those people and hopefully there is enough silent majority who will also vote like me. Luckily I got other citizenships to escape to if things don't work out and the mob takes over.

Thank you to the creator of this! I am actually working on a hardware version of a sound grid similar to this! I was inspired by a much older version of this which was written in Flash and doesn't work too well (there is also a 5 year old Android app [1]). It's awesome to have something which actually works on a modern phone.

My idea for a sound block toy is similar but instead of having a grid it's a line of blocks which light up and play a tone. The tone will be adjustable with buttons or gestures and can be rearranged.

I also need planned out a life size grid which people collaborate and step on to light up the notes. Obviously this concept is very interesting to me!!

Masks _might_ cause some people to reduce distancing, and they might cause some people with symptoms to stop isolating and leave home. We don't know if they do.

We have good evidence that distance is important. We have poor evidence that masks work. We think masks work. They have a plausible mechanism of action, but we struggle to find benefit from the RCTs that have been done, and we have to use other statistical methods on existing data to find a benefit. We need better data for masks. https://www.thelancet.com/action/showPdf?pii=S0140-6736(20)3...
That's what I really meant. Write it in Rust but then output C instead of ASM. The parent is right though. A component/driver would need to use the C headers from the Rust side.
Turing machines only model mathematical functions. They cannot model anything on my list. That's why computer scientists invented I/O automata in an attempt to build a theoretical model that handles some of those items on my list.

If Fox News gave a real shit about truth in journalism they’d either have people in the middle of CHAZ getting the story, or they should be broadcasting that they’re being denied access to a supposedly free zone.

I think this has to do with the concept of "setting expectations".

In other words - if you get a low bill, everyone else will expect a low bill and there will be a lot of drama.

If everyone gets a high bill, but then they get a special discount, they are usually overjoyed and happy. If someone tries drama, they are stuck with the high bill.

I am aware.

The thought I had could maybe better expressed as:

"If even SQLite, with its almost unsurpassed testing, has so many 'issues', then that approach of testing cannot be seen as a strong indicator of correctness."

Which is sort of a truism, but seeing the trend of more and more unit tests instead of also investing in other strategies made me blurt that out.

That said, I will continue to use sqlite without hesitation, the robustness is just soothing in a world of terrible libraries.

We can argue about the weak typing though :P
AFAIK even HEVC isn't typically used for live streaming, at least not on Web (YouTube, Twitch, etc.).

Is there any examples of major services currently using HEVC?
In one sense, what you want is possible but not currently supported, though people are working on it (https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/29705 is a good start). In another sense, the SageMath install is just a Python environment. When you install Sage (from source or a binary) you are install a Python environment, similar to Anaconda. You can then type "sage -sh" to setup the environment, then install packages (pip3 install), or run a Python interpreter (by typing "python3") and do "import sage.all" to get the full sage library as a normal Python library. You could write a Python program and use any of Sage in them by importing "sage.all" in your Python program.

The reason Sage is currently distributed this way is similar to the reason Anaconda exists, which is that Python's package manager isn't (or wasn't in 2005 when I started this!) meant to build something as complicated as Sage, which has about 100 complicated dependencies. I really hope this eventually changes someday and people can type "pip install sagemath" and get something useful.

Oh, I think for several Linux distributions there are SageMath packages that just build Sage into the standard system-wide Python. So if you're using Linux, the problem may already be solved for you.
I'd recommend not sticking to a specific idea of what you want that job to be. University is a lot more interesting than most provate sector jobs, so explore non-cs stuff as much as possible.
Thanks for that. It's certainly anything but a dull story, or at least, mine is quite dull by comparison.

I've tried kratom a few times, but doesn't seem to work for me. Nor pot, for that matter. Ethanol is pretty good, for now, aside from the health effects, though they say it interferes with memory formation, and I think that's true.

Because what most people engage with can't be accurately described as "news".

Much more likely Facebook is trying to hide from the world just how vapid and dim most of its users are.

Calling Trump a nazi seems incredibly disrespectful to people and their family who actually lost their lives to real nazis.

Are you aware that you don't actually know what Trump supporters think? That your opinion is based on heuristics running on top of the absolutely tiny sample of the real world that you've been exposed to, much of it likely incredibly biased if not outright untrue?

They're definitely required to report the data breach even if they pay the ransom - in fact, since negotiating the ransom in large cases usually has taken quite a few days, they're required to report the data breach before paying the ransom or even deciding whether they'll pay the ransom or not, as they're required to report the breach to the controlling authority not later than 72 hours after having become aware of it.

Paying a ransom with the intent of attempting to hide the breach is very risky, since that's strictly illegal and hard to accomplish as it's hard to ensure that everyone involved, up to the lowest level of IT helpdesk technicians who might have noticed it, will forever keep secret the fact that the breach occured.

The GDPR has been here for two years already; the hypothetical scenario you describe has discussed but has not shown itself in practice.

Scientific method is employed to solve particular problems.

Which problems should we be solving? You cannot use the scientific method to answer that question. The best you can try and do is use empirical evidence and science to strengthen your position, in an attempt to convince others and/or yourself.

This is not an original thought - it's a shame that it isn't more well known.

Man, I'm trying real hard to make my dad to use linux, I spent 3 hours last weekend formatting and setting up his computer with ubuntu, but developers are letting new users down.

He is familiar with chrome, so after the installation he downloaded chrome. At this point I was hoping that he would be able to just double click the .deb file and install with no hassle, but he couldn't. I don't know if was the package manager fault or google's... All I now is as long as people have to use the terminal to do basic things, windows users won't be able to make te switch.

Nice job though, we need more projects like this.

My request would be semantic reverse code lookup within a language and across languages.

For example if I search something related to numpy mmap in Python, in some cases only core numpy mmap answers make sense as results. In other situations, the question is about mmap generally and info from other languages or the core mmap definition could answer my question.

I don’t want to be checking boxes or toggles, or retrying the query with different text over & over to get the engine to understand these differences or when one class of answers is appropriate vs the other.

My point is that only works if you’re writing the entire software stack. The moment you rely on someone else’s library, whether it’s to read from a file descriptor, a libc wrapper around an OS SYSCALL or whatever, you’re opening up your program to unexpected behaviour. And that’s not even taking into account the slew of very real software bugs that can be introduced from unexpected hardware behavior. Using formal method might prove your applications logic but it doesn’t prove a buffer overflow bug in a library you’ve used, or the OS you’re running on, or the compiler you’ve used from introducing a bug, nor even the hardware itself.

Computers these days are sufficiently complex and with enough abstractions that there’s no such thing as a guarantee.
In many countries such as the UK (where the author is from) and Germany it was called Google Mail due to trademark disputes with local companies that had the Gmail name first. I think they've sorted most of these with licensing agreements or just buying the rights for the name, but a lot of UK people still have @googlemail addresses even.
Bias, like farting, is inescapable. We should just try to minimize it.

Also, a reporter with integrity won't fall into either trap of agenda-driven reporting or presenting a false equivalency, but will provide necessary context, won't gin-up adjectives disproportionately, and will provide nuanced contrary details because there is no "correct" side that must censor everything else.

The more I've seen of Taibi, the more I dislike his remedial overconfidence and lack of nuance. Chris Hedges OTOH was thrown out of the establishment for expressing an inconvenient truth and demonstrating integrity. The Jesse Ventura's, Jimmy Dore's, Ralph Nader's, and Phil Donahue's also languish as journalistic dissidents while the know-nothing Rachel Maddow's, Anderson Cooper's, and Matt Taibi's so confidentially opine from positions of privilege while squandering their good luck. Maybe if they weren't paid millions or worked for establishment corporations, they'd inhabit a filter bubble closer to Earth?
I plan to create a Show HN shortly, but I created an interactive Python tutorial to teach engineers how to read and implement math using the NumPy library, called Math to Code:

https://mathtocode.com

It takes you from basic functions like square roots and absolute values, to summations, matrix multiplication, to measures like standard deviation and the Frobenius norm.

I was inspired to create it while taking the Fast.ai course and Jeremy Howard showing what looked like a "complicated" Frobenius norm equation that could be implemented in a single line of Python.

It's open source and should also work on mobile.

I’m a NYT subscriber - NYT is downright obsessed with Trump, and the all consuming anguish from the Democrats. I’m not saying right or wrong, I’m just saying that reading their opinion section - where editorial bias can _really_ come into play - you may find most opinions revolve around Trump and his policies.
It is so ingrained into the newspaper that they cover Trump negatively even when he does something agreeable just because what he stands for.

I’m not an American, so no horse in the game - but this is obsessive.
