Why is it that advertisers did not care previously and for so long? The status quo for a decade was that all parties - consumers, YouTubers, advertisers, and YouTube itself did not care much about the minority of ad placements that happened to be next to niche political, mature, or sexual orientation subject matter.

Was it the uptick in activists such as Media Matters and Vox conducting name-and-shame campaigns, contacting brands with screenshots and threatening publication? Once a campaign like that picks up media cycles (like the FB one at the moment) it seems that brands follow en masse only then, and not a moment earlier.

DF has many things that could be multithreaded or perhaps even vectorized (such as the heat simulations) very easily.

I agree you can't make the whole agent-based system multithreaded overnight but there are many calculations happening with every 'tick' that I would be quite confident are easily parallelizable.
I didn't do a good job of explaining it, the thing is that if your compiler is truly pure, your source input is a node in a graph, the compiler is an edge, and the output is another node. Given 2 languages with pure compilers the entire compilation process inherently admits a DAG, rather than having to reconstruct the DAG in order to drive the compilation process.
It is even more tenuous than that. If just one of a company's fabs goes down much of the imaging industry will have problems. A few years ago when the earthquake affected Sony's Kumamoto sensor fab it caused some serious issues for some camera vendors. Nikon for example had announced their DL 1" sensor compact line to compete with Sony's 1" sensor cameras and reportedly due to the earthquake they delayed and eventually completely scrapped the project.

Maybe she’s the problem? It “learns” as you go based on your habits, so she probably just writes very differently from you.
I think this is symptomatic of the really overzealous approach that Apple has towards autocomplete and autocorrect these days. The autocorrect has a nasty habit of replacing my correct sentences containing absolutely normal non-technical vocabulary with annoyingly incorrect garbage. It routinely replaces “well” with “we’ll” when it makes absolutely no sense to do so, and generally adds apostrophes all over the place. Not to mention the way it handles names. Sometimes I want my name to not be capitalised, such as in my email address. Even pressing backspace, then typing the same thing in again after it autocorrects incorrectly doesn’t solve anything.
There's plenty of browser extensions and user scripts that will do this.
For some things, maybe. But it seems that more often than not, the Wikipedia article is just a jumble of incomprehensible technical terms and mathematical formulae, and I end up looking elsewhere. At least for anything remotely technical.

For example, Fitts's Law[1], which is a super simple concept that the further away a target is, the bigger it needs to be to quickly and accurately reach it. It's super relevant in any sort of graphical user interface design, particularly mouse-driven ones, and you don't need to know the math behind it to understand it. But this is how Wikipedia introduces it:

> Fitts's law is a predictive model of human movement primarily used in human–computer interaction and ergonomics. This scientific law predicts that the time required to rapidly move to a target area is a function of the ratio between the distance to the target and the width of the target.

And it jumps right into a bunch of complicated-looking math from there. If you're not already familiar with the topic and you're also not a mathematician, the whole thing is complete gibberish.

That was only the first topic I thought of, and I've never seen that particular page before.

Very nice insight. I might even go a step further and archive the entire page[1]; hard drive space is cheap, and how many recipes is one person going to save, honestly? 1-2 LOCs worth? Then you can just parse the content you want, with the ability to drop down into the original page as you first saw it.

As a person with better visual memory for certain kinds of data, having the original page content may have as much meaning as the recipe, for entirely different reasons. Food can be very personal, and recipe books doubly so. A recipe archive can be as personal as we like, or all of that can abstracted away when we don’t need it.

Show HN: Fitsquad – Challenge with Friends
> the purity of compilers was abandoned almost immediately (when they started creating a file a.out and writing to that instead of writing binaries to stdout

I don't understand your point. A function doesn't cease to be a function if it sends it's output somewhere else.

> and in the c-preprocessor when #include was added,

The C preprocessor is not the compiler. It's a macro processor that expands all macros to generate the translation unit, which is the input that compilers use to generate their output.

And that is clearly a function.

> If compilers were pure, there would be zero need for Makefile style build systems which stat files to see if they have changed.

That assertion makes no sense at all. Compilers take source code as input and output binaries. That's it. The feature you're mentioning is just a convenient trick to cut down build times by avoiding to compile source files that haven't changed. That's not the responsibility of the compiler. That's a function whose input is the source files' attributes and it's output is a DAG of files that is used to run a workflow where in each step a compiler is invoked to take a specific source file as input in order to generate a binary.

It's functions all the way down, but the compiler is just a layer in the middle.

> while Makefiles and their ilk are modeled as a dag is true, The only reason an external file/dag is actually necessary is due to impurity in the compilation process.

You have it entirely backwards: build systems exist because compilers are pure functions with specific and isolated responsibilities. Compilers take source code as input and generate binaries as output. That's it. And they are just a component in the whole build system, which is comprised of multiple tools that are designed as pure functions as well.

This fits in with low technology and degrowth. For example, this site [1] only works with energy collected from a solar panel, challenging the idea that things always need to be available.

When he talks about technologies that make us more stupid I remembered 5G, not because of the wave frequencies it uses, but because it will increase the amount of information in our mobile phones, information that most of us already cannot manage well today. It is also a tremendous waste of resources, because we will need to change all of our mobile phones and their will consume more energy.

Having an x86 dev machine is useful because it matches most production environments pretty closely. This might be changing somewhat with AWS Graviton, it's not the default yet.

What makes ARM so exciting? Maybe battery use will be better? Maybe it will be slightly faster? Maybe? There's also been a lot of tuning done for laptop workloads on x86, it's definitely a maybe. I expect the only noticeable changes for most users to be somewhat better battery life, some apps not working, and occasionally having to know which package to download.

One hopes that day comes sooner, and with fewer victims, but as we can see the stubborn "might makes right" attitude so many of us are exhibiting in the West, alas makes it more likely that this won't happen until even more innocent bodies are thrown on the pile ..
