> 144Hz

That's your problem right there. Most people, myself included, are perfectly fine at 60Hz since we don't do competitive FPS gaming. At that refresh rate, my 2070 is perfectly happy to render games in 4k and I really don't notice any significant difference compared to 120Hz. If > 60Hz is really important to you, it's going to be another generation of video cards before single-card gaming can handle it well (probably the 3000 series cards will be capable).
If you’ve never encountered someone with low blood albumin, it is a very serious problem. You get terrible edema all over. Albumin helps you not retain the water in your cells, and instead to get the fluid back into your bloodstream for excretion.
Yup. I've been working in cyber security for going on 10 years now and even when I started at my first company, we already had for-pay DDoS mitigation services and cyber attack insurance. The insurance covered the cost of compensating customers for any outages that came from a successful attack (fictional example: site was down for an hour due to a DDoS so we had to reimburse millions of dollars to thousands of customers all at once).

These days incident response retainers are very common, where you would pay a security firm like Mandient or Verizon or IBM a small fee every month and in exchange they guarantee that they will have an expert on site within X hours if you have a security breach. Almost every major company has a retainer like this.

That's fine if that's the choice you wanted to make.

But if you wanted to live alone, or with your own family, it's not affordable to pay a multiple of that without a choice.
This is why MCUs are better.

0 is where memory starts, there is perfectly valid data at address 0.

In a sane world '0' would be a perfectly valid address just like any other.

For me, 2560x1440@144 on a 27" panel is by far the Goldilocks of writing code. 1080p feels like it's not tall enough with fat editors like Visual Studio, and anything bigger in size or DPI is starting to get too difficult to keep in focus.

I do also have a separate workstation with a 4K 43" monitor that I use exclusively as a standing setup. The monitor is fairly far back, but still requires me to move my head slightly to view the extents. This is the workstation I typically use for daily stand-ups so that I can have a ton of relevant information up all at once. I will also do some large-scale codebase reorganization efforts on this setup as I can have 3-4 solution explorers side-by-side and still have 90% of my monitor remaining for code editor windows, debuggers, explorer windows, browsers, etc. That said, this setup is tiresome if you are trying to laser focus on a single area of the codebase for an extended duration.

I will typically alternate between these setups throughout the day as appropriate.

Also, I do appreciate the color accuracy of the 4k 43" monitor (IPS/8-bit). I don't do a lot of artistic work, but when I am trying to see if a certain shade of grey makes sense for a element relative to its contents, having an accurate monitor really helps pick a good color code. With TN you get much more 'coarse' results and its hard to find a good middle point.

I fully agree that higher DPI is better.

I disagree that all available resolution should go to increasing sharpness and detail of text, which, after all, can only improve so much. There's only one metric that really matters for text, and that's reading speed. Any beauty or detail which doesn't serve to differentiate characters (thereby increasing reading speed) is essentially pointless.

A better reason to get a better monitor is to fit more text on it. While coding or learning, there might be one or more editors, terminals, browsers, chats, etc. Can all this be behind tabs or in virtual desktops? Of course. But the value of having it all available at a flick of the eyes is so much higher! Even if you turn off all the animations, flipping virtual desktops or tabs requires a much more severe context switch than casting a glance to the right, left, or (slightly) up or down. I'm currently using a 5k2k monitor at its native resolution, and it's pretty awesome.

I have been hoping for two decades that VR would solve this, allowing me to have a truly vast workspace that moved and zoomed just via eye movement, but not only is that day still far away in eye-tracking terms, VR goggles have so far all been much worse for text than high DPI screens, in my experience. I appreciate that there are VR workspaces in development, though, like Immersed, for the day when the hardware is good enough.
>The cpu/disk/bandwidth to store and serve text are so small as to be irrelevant.

Just wondering, in your view, if these costs are so "small", who pays them when advertisers abandon the website? Where does the money come from to cover these costs? (Small as they are.)

Full Disclosure: My own belief is that IRL these costs, especially for something at the scale of YouTube, are not likely to be terribly "small" at all. I seriously doubt most organizations could countenance such costs with no return on that investment.

I was wondering that too. But donating only takes about 10% of your blood. So maybe not enough for any effect?
That's a false equivalence. At any point in this, there is little we can do to verify E2EE, but trust a 3rd party. We can trust that they enable it, or as previously proposed we can trust that they are visibly in the meetings and observing. Either way, we have no way to ensure this is true when dealing with 3rd party providers.

Your smart tv recording has nothing to do with this, but one does still need to trust that it isn't happening. In the case of the smart tv we can attempt to look for microphones or other components that are able to be used as microphones. Software offers a more difficult path in verification.

Summary: Chinese government harass the relatives of the fugitive corruption suspects to force these suspects to return voluntarily.

That's definitely one area the Chinese system is vastly behind the international standard. But this has not been conscious to me.

When I was a child, we had horror stories of people sentenced to death penalty and were executed on superficial charges that sexual misconduct. And my parents have witnessed detained thief were beaten like wild animals by policeman, and the thief's scream was heart far in the then poor village.

These measures can even escalate during "Yanda", a nationally-coordinated clampdown on criminal activities. In [1], it was noted: "China's execution rate increases dramatically during Yanda campaigns."

Such brutal national campaigns are dying down, the most recent one [2] has much less cruelty. And historically such campaigns enjoyed universal domestic support.

As of today, the Chinese government has a high degree of popular endorsement to use whatever not-too-out-of-line measures to bring back the corrupted businessman or former government officials, who are prosecuted by the public attorneys. Thanks a grain of national pride, i.e., "those corrupted bastard not only embezzled our money, and they escape to the country that is unfriendly and can be benefited from those fortune".

I'm not sure why 'def8cefe' is being voted down for pointing out the name of this process. OSINT is short for "open source intelligence" and the TL;DR is that only "open sources" (eg: not government/restricted datasets) are use to perform a digital investigation. Steve Rambam has given talks about digital investigations from the very beginning of the H.O.P.E. Conferences on this topic. In addition to law enforcement using this it's also used by private investigators or just amateur enthusiasts who team up to help solve missing children cases and track down info from other past cold cases or to even bust child trafficking rings. The skills natural to Hacker News readers makes me surprised there's not more general interest in OSINT here, especially defensive tactics to make sure we allow as little of our personal info to land in open datasets to feed OSINT investigations in the future.

Consistency is important, though. Using C-family syntax makes it easy to get people to dip their toes into something within the spending time to learn a new syntax. Look at modern languages like Rust, Swift, Dart, and Go: they all use C-style syntax.

I’m not accusing you of advocating Go’s adopting a different syntax for generics solely to be contrarian - but using angle-brackets for type-parameters and template-parameters is a proven technique with few downsides - and certainly not any that downsides that would be fixed by using any other syntax I’m aware-of.
This almost got me and then I looked at the date of publication.
If you go down that road, you can make this argument infinitely. Even if you verify your builds, you cannot know if the software you are using to check the build isn't compromised. Or if you check the software you use to check the build, you have to check the software doing that check and so on.

Nothing makes software automatically super-crazy-secure. Absolute security doesn't exist.
> Joe Biden easily beat Twitter darlings like Warren and Sanders.

It's worth asking whether Biden's popularity relative to Warren and Sanders is actually an artefact of an under-use of preferential/ranked voting systems for polls and primaries.

To pick an example from last September[0], Warren and Sanders had 19.7% and 17.1% support, respectively, while Biden had 29.6%. That's not to say that Warren or Sanders would have had twice as much support if the other had ended their candidacy then, but it does cast doubt on the claim that Biden "easily beat" them.

Frameworks and standards, definitely. But bug free software written do to exactly the right thing won't happen much. We're moving faster and faster, I don't think that's going to change. What seems to be happening more is designing around the fact to avoid disasters.

27" 4k is going to be pretty tough to read text at 1:1 scaling even with 20/20 vision.

IMO you're better off grabbing something like a 25" 2560x1440 monitor. You can comfortably read text at a few feet away, even small text with not the best contrast.

If you start scaling to 150% or 200% with your 4k display you'll end up with the same screen real estate as a 2560x1440 or even a 1080p monitor depending on how much you scale up and you'll end up paying a lot more. For example a really good 2560x1440 monitor will run you about $300-350 (IPS display, low input lag, good color accuracy, etc.). The first 2 monitors in OP's post are $1,500 to $1,730.

I did a huge write up on this at https://nickjanetakis.com/blog/how-to-pick-a-good-monitor-fo... if anyone is curious. I evaluated a bunch of monitors and ultimately picked a 25" 2560x1440 since it's the sweet spot for PPI at normal viewing distances while having normal vision.

For programming, having a 2560x1440 1:1 scaled display is going to be a huge win. You can easily fit 4x 80 column windows side by side in most code editors. After using that set up for years, there's no way I would ever want to work on a display that's less than an effective 2560x1440 resolution again.
> HashTable performance is a fundamental component of any language.

Agreed, but why use Node if performance was so critical to your use case? Could this 400M insert logic exist in a separate service that lives outside your Node code base?
> Wages from jobs start to increase in an area, some housing development happens, rents go up on those new developments to cover costs but also because their renters can afford it, repeat?

The increased wages (more jobs + better jobs) leads directly to both new housing development AND increased demand for whatever housing currently exists. The latter is more impactful for higher prices than the former.

> but also because their renters can afford it, repeat?

This isn't quite how things work. Most landlords are always going to raise the rent to whatever the market can bear. Of course, how much people can afford does factor into that, but it's not everything.

I can afford to buy milk that costs 10x as it does right now, but I wouldn't actually pay that because I have no reason to when cheap milk still exists. Landlords are able to raise rents when the demand for housing goes up faster than the supply, such that renters don't have better options available.
The SpaceX FCC filings indicate reachability down to 25 degrees above the horizon, so it's not clear why 60 degrees was chosen in this animation.

I do understand that the satellites are deployed into lower orbits, but satellites from launches 1, 2 and 3 (and some of launch 4) are now at 550km:

https://twitter.com/StarlinkUpdates/status/12732692201308610...

Those launches are shown way too low in this map. From measuring pixels, I make them to be roughly 200km.

Edit: maybe I'm being pedantic here, but the combination of showing artifically small coverage zones, plus showing satellites much lower than they are so giving a misleading impression of how much area each satellite can see, taken together give the misleading impression that Starlink coverage will be worse than it will actually be.
I was one level below you when I quit as well. I was playing more chess than I ever had in my life, and enjoying it quite a bit. And then I got to the point where I said to myself, "I'd better buy a book to learn more now." And then I stopped. About to buy a book to study? Why? It turns out my view isn't new and it was voiced shortly after chess was created.

"[Chess] is certainly a pleasing and ingenious amusement, but it seems to have one defect, which is that it is possible to have too much knowledge of it, so that whoever would excel in the game must give a great deal of time to it, as I believe, and as much study as if he would learn some noble science or perform well anything of importance; and yet in the end, for all his pains, he only knows how to play a game. Thus, I think a very unusual thing happens in this, namely that mediocrity is more to be praised than excellence."
-- Castiglione, The Book of the Courtier, 1528, Book II para. 31, Singleton translation

"Chess is as elaborate a waste of human intelligence as you can find outside an advertising agency."

I have a kid. And a cat. My neighbour has two kids and a dog. Their neighbour has a kid. Across the hall from them, two kids. approx 80 sqm apartments each.

I might as well just copy your last paragraph.

Additionally, we love the parks, the playgrounds, the gardens, we walk to childcare, walked to work before this whole pandemic thing. We all have memberships with the museum and the zoo that give us unlimited visits. And since the pandemic, my son often rides in a Thule transport behind my bike. we've got a creek along the bike trail, and one in one of the gardens. we've even got a children's farm down the road.

Culturally many Australians are like Americans: the refrain is "you need to move to suburbia once you've got kids" and "kids need a back yard to run around in" and "you can't raise a kid in an apartment". To the point that half of them never move into the city in the first place or reflexively move out without an actual thought or goal. And it IS frustrating to lose friends (so far everyone I've talked to that has moved out regrets it or at least looks back wistfully) , and knowing that this belief is the viscious circle that stops people improving cities.

But while I will admit that rural areas have something we can't replicate in the inner city (we all have trade offs after all), I WANT my child to have the opportunities afforded in the city and will actively fight the forces trying to set suburbia as a default. judging by the number of childcare centres, prams and scooters showing up in my neighbourhood, we might finally be on the verge of a generation that will try to stay.

the pandemic has changed things, but as I've said to my wife and has been echoed by other posters, maybe this will clear the way for people who want to be here...
Missing sub-pixel antialiasing is plain technical deficiency, not a stylistic choice. I agree arguments can be had about hinting and aligning the glyphs to the pixel grid, but not much beyond that.
I do remember a time in my very early C career where I thought "pointers are arrays". But I'm not sure what caused me to think that. They are two very different things. A pointer is a memory address. An array is an area of contiguous memory containing a whole number multiple of some data type. Pointer arithmetic naturally supports arrays, but the pointer is not the array.
Which is absolutely against the HN guidelines:

>HN is a community—users should have an identity that others can relate to.
Not nobody. I know high school kids who would understand that. Furthermore I submit that someone who understands the phrases "linear algebra", "matrices", and "the trace of a matrix" is likely to understand that sentence. Anyone who knows what a "Lie group" is, DEFINITELY understands that sentence. (All of those phrases occur in the article without real explanation.)

As for what that sentence means, it means that given any two elements we can "multiply" them. Multiplication is associative, meaning that x * (y * z) is always the same as (x * y) * z. There is an identity simply means that an element we can call 1 exists such that 1 * x is always x. There is a multiplicative inverse means that for every x there is some element we can call x^(-1) such that x * x^(-1) = 1. By not commutative I mean that x * y doesn't have to be the same as y * x. (An example of non-commutative is that if you swap the first two items in a list then the first and third you get a different result than if you swap the first and third then swap the first two items.)

But still, you have answered my actual question.

What that site attempts to do is, at length, build some intuition about a topic, so that it can talk about it. By contrast my explanation just reminds someone who understands the fundamentals of the topic of the concepts so that we can start talking. So someone like you has a chance to understand something. Someone like me has to work to keep track of where they are, only to say, "You're just talking about group homeomorphisms."
