A lot of people would have been very surprised if it had failed.

The physics wasn't considered a mystery by then. Failure would have been caused by fixable engineering and design mistakes - or sabotage - not because the idea was unworkable.

There might have been some completely unexpected physics at scale. But given that nuclear reactors were already a thing, that would have been very surprising.
Anyone with some knowledge of the Java eco-system knows perfectly well that Java is as free as ever, more so that it was under Sun, where it was only free beer without source.

True. But in the long term, beyond the course of the cement's lifespan, that carbon will eventually be re-absorbed. Strictly speaking, therefore, cement is carbon-neutral.

At any rate - it's a truly miniscule amount of carbon anyway, when amortized over the plant's lifespan. If all of our power came from nuclear, we would not be worrying about greenhouse emissions from the concrete in their construction.
I dunno, I think I'd rather have the QC of a big player for an EDC. Those artisan blades are nice showpieces though.

Well, you could just increase the clock, but it doesn't really gain you anything. G.Skill already has the F4-4800C18D-16GTRS which runs at 4800Mhz. Is it fast? Not really. The F4-3800C14D-16GTZN running at 3800Mhz is actually faster in practice because you're limited by the memory module's latency.

Increasing the clock just makes it a lot harder for motherboard and CPU manufacturers to support those speeds, but on its own it doesn't really gain you a lot of speed.
In 2014 I was not interested in any type of Google Glasses. Partly because I didn’t need glasses at the time. Now that I do it’s interesting enough for me to try. Sunglasses would be cool. Luckily for me I only have slight astigmatism and don’t qualify for contacts/surgery or glasses full time.

Apple products are abundant in my household but looking back the watch is easily my least favorite purchase. The glasses would need to be compelling.

That is predicated on dumb money not trading in patterns that are visible to market surveillance. We know for it not to be the case.

First of all, market surveillance is going to score trades based on profitability and on the expected value of outcomes. If the actor in question does not have a habit of trading options in certain patterns, he will be sticking out of the sea of other bets, significantly reducing the number of actors he can hide in. This will flag money movement. This will flag strange account funding. This will flag strange volume. This will flag strange time the order was placed in compared to the usual trades of this individual.

> If you do a good job, you've just convinced 100 people to be your patsies (and made them a handsome sum in the meantime)

This will probably not increase but decrease randomness.

The trick of avoiding being picked up on a market surveillance is not to hide among others who do what one does rather it is to hide a specific action one performs among a pattern of one's typical actions. That is why a hacker who does not normally trade options will most likely get nailed should he win based on a hack.

I feel this, and it's challenging because visibility is important for advancement. My manager advised me to think of the broadcast emails/posts as ways to boost the people I collaborated with, and that's helped a lot. It doesn't feel like I'm tooting my own horn, people still see the impact of projects I contributed to, and my colleagues are always enthusiastic to work on projects with me because they know they will get good visibility and be "given" they credit they deserve for their contributions.

Granted my role is very crossfunctional, but I think it's pretty unusual to be consistently impactful working in your own silo. So boosting my collaborators gets me the visibility benefits, without feeling insincere, and contributes to a work culture that is collaborative and supportive.

For context, I lead an analytics team at a FAANG company.

Yes, it is called hypocrisy.

The individual in question has a powerful speech platform due to his role. Such power should be used responsibly.

Moreover, why aren’t statements against the USA government harmful to businesses? Because we have free speech. We should protect it, and denounce the actors in the world trying to censor us.
Encryption won't do you any good - encrypted messages can be forged. But let's say you meant a signature or other form of authentication.

That still does you no good if you're, say, a server getting data from a client. Very few servers want to allow clients to execute arbitrary code inside them.

That still leaves some situations where it can be used - but it's a major limitation on the scope of those situations.

The last 4 years have been a terrible example of how to interact on Twitter as a politician, but in general the idea of a politician being able to connect directly with their citizens is still a great dream. I'm not sure if social media is the right approach, but right now I don't think there is a great alternative.

Especially when during campaigning it is necessary to grow that kind of following organically and to leverage social media. Saying that the day you get elected that you must disable your online presence feels like the wrong solution.

I do think there should be some higher standard though. I just am not sure what it is. The same threats exist in Email that exist on Twitter in a lot of ways. I can register "JoeBidden.com" and email you about "my" campaign all day. There's no official registration of your "official" domain anywhere. And even if there were, that can be hacked too.

"Straub said that police officers shouldn’t be expected to determine what's being thrown at them before responding.

"“If you're standing there in that skirmish line, and somebody's throwing something at you, is it really up to you to be figuring out whether it's gasoline or whether it's metal, or whether it's water or whether it's acid?”"

His use of military terminology ("skirmish line") is telling.

I looked into it a couple of times, but most clients lack E2E encryption support, and the oficial ones are Electron monsters. We mostly work over SSH on remote workstations, hence the CLI/TUI requirement.

Altough, it seems there is a plugin for WeeChat with E2E encryption[1]. Gotta take a look.

Question for the steel and knife enthusiasts.

With modern metallurgy and machining techniques, could you design a sword that if transported back in time, would be looked at as a magical weapon (perhaps due to its strength, weight, cutting ability, etc?). What would you design?
Thats a cop out by a lazy or self-centered manager. The difference is that it's the manager's job to evaluate you vs marketing a product to an unknown buyer. A good manager would actively work with their employees to know what is going on. Most managers I've seen care about their own performance and hitting target metrica.

If you're not good a marketing a product, you should still spend 100% of your effort on making it great, and hire a marketing person to do the other part.
I think youtube has some amazing content and creators, but at least for the kind I like I almost never discover them trough youtube itself but only via external means such as discussion forums, friends, etc.

Scrolling trough the home page or even video sidebar, altough heavily personalized, doesn't feel that much different than apathicly zapping trough tv stations in the past. Sure, YT gets the topics mostly correct, but the results are so heavily skewed towards shallow infotainment that is easily consumable and advertiser friendly, that it has become completly useless to me.
So what? "It does 30% better than the worst large country in the world, while also being 30% poorer per capita" (since Germany's per-capita GDP is ~46k, while the US's is ~65k) isn't exactly a glowing commendation.

However the neutrality of the self depends on a fertile environment within which to grow a new life structure. As someone described in a different post about 'shit life syndrome': there are places physically, and I would argue as an extension also socially, where the true problem and root cause is outside.

Care should also be taken to have a society that builds for the success of all, and helps to place individuals within good situations. The help from a drug to fix a temporary problem or a genetic disease might still be required but it isn't a one shot magic bullet.
Steering this back to Google's decision to pull out of China after exploits - the Tech Industry has expressed views that have cost it significant amounts of revenue. We've fought back unlike other industries.
HiSilicon is fabless too. They have to go to SMIC to get their designs manufactured which does presently not have as advanced processes as TSMC have.
That's the thing about trying eliminate voting. If comments essentially serve as votes, you actually get the worse kind of filter - the way the filth rises to the top on Youtube comments for example (Youtube sorts by most commented even though it allows voting - so hateful stuff remains even when downvoted).

They're not. Period.
Exactly. Inconvenient facts or even just minority views get downvotes. Especially here on hn. If you are going to say something that disagrees with the general hn monoculture, you have to dress it up in the inimitable pseudo-intellectual rational style favored here. Only then do you stand a chance of making yourself heard.

> You would need a new CPU that doesn't yet exist to address 32TB of memory per socket. Existing parts can address 1TB (Intel) or 4TB (AMD). x86-64 has an ultimate system limit of 256TB, due to its 48-bit virtual address space.

That's the virtual address space. A page table entry has enough bits to have a 64-bit physical address space, it just wouldn't be able to have it all mapped at once in the same virtual address space. Although CPUs don't have 64 physical address lines yet, there's nothing fundamental in the x86 architecture preventing them from doing so.

Intel have already implemented 5-level paging, which would give a 2^57 bit virtual address.

Also, this wouldn't be the first time that the x86 has supported more physical memory than virtual. PAE allowed for 64GB of RAM on a system with a 32-bit virtual address space.
Thanks for the kind words!

One of our goals as a project is to have a "teaching-quality" codebase, so this is no surprise. I think this is incredibly important and something every community open source project should strive for.

An analogy I like to use is to think about the experience of contributing to your open source project as a product, so you should:

* Do usability studies where you help a group of people try to get started with your product (I used to do this all the time at events like Python conference sprints pre-pandemic). The first few we did were eye-opening as nobody got anywhere without a lot of handholding, and I suspect that's common.

* Make the development environment tooling Just Work and have a good support experience.

* Write good documentation that thoughtfully explains the ideas one needs to understand to participate on your project. My strategy for this was to avoid explaining how things work to a contributor, and instead meet the need by spending a couple hours writing something like https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/subsystems/sending-me... and send it to them. That way, even if that contributor bounces (as the vast majority of new people who show up to any volunteer organization do), I still used my time well.

I'm planning a series of blog posts on building a successful open source community, since we've spent a lot of time thinking about how to make contributing to Zulip a great experience, and some ideas are subtle (E.g. the secret to being able to give high quality code reviews is equipping new contributors with the tooling and documentation to help them avoid problems before a reviewer even looks at it!), and I regret not having spent more time sharing that thinking.
There was an interesting article [0] from a decade ago about a NY agency called "Office of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities." When the agency was established in the 70s the social workers fought hard for the clinical word "retard" over prior terms like "moron."

Cut to 2010 and there was public outcry to have the offensive agency name changed but the people working there refused to give it up because they still held on to the more neutral meaning of "retard."

How can giving praise hurt you?
Ehh you could say the same about the US.

The US is currently:
bombing several countries, putting asylum seekers in high density prisons, blatantly ignoring a global pandemic, assassinating foreign leaders, disproportionately killing and imprisoning black people, using its currency to maintain global hegemony, starting trade wars with pretty much everyone, allies included, spying on the entire world, allies included, emitting a disproportionate amount of carbon, actively rolling back environmental protections, etc etc

The US isn’t that different than China, some might consider US imperialism to be a greater evil. If it is wrong for companies to operate in China, how can you justify them operating in the United States?

That is the point - youtube makes him a lot more popular not because it's inherently better, but because there is better discoverability on youtube than on blogs.
In my experience the biggest problem with stack ranking is that it's not easy to update. I mentored a developer and he skyrocketed from the bottom of the stack to near the top in real terms over the course of two years. But he could never escape his "reputation" as a lower tier person. He left, over two years quadrupled his income, and now I work for him. I doubled my income.
Would love it if more software and websites did this. Banking, online stores, etc. could benefit a lot. Even some CAD software doesn't have this functionality.

In YNAB, it's essential, so I'm glad they have it.

For things like this there isn't a "the U.S." there's groups of people, interest groups, political economy, political will, etc. If China were rapidly liberalizing and didn't have stains on their reputation like the HK protest lockdowns, minority subjugation, and horrible prison conditions it would be a lot harder to push any of these changes through. As it stands, democrats and republicans are both turning hawkish on China and the business interests that used to dominate have started to turn sour too.

Exactly. US entry into WWII was mainly for reasons that had little to do with human rights. But the defeat of Nazi German and Imperialist Japan had huge, favorable results for human rights.
Police say "stop resisting" as an alternative to something more vulgar. They do not really mean it, they shout that as a way to release stress.

They are also taught that the Lateral Vascular Neck Restraint (LVNR) is the safest way to restraint someone. The truth is, that it is not. It is stupid to believe that cutting blood supply to someone's brain is safe. LVNR is a scam that nobody actually believes in but everyone is silent about it because it is a plausible excuse to kill people.

Well, we don't know how many of the people on Highway 1 were carrying military supplies. This is exactly why the North Vietnamese avoided displaying insignias; they were using their civilians as human shields, and pretending that everyone not wearing a uniform was innocent.
Exactly. Compare that to privately held corporations, which would never think to illegally keep prices up through collaboration, just because they can reasonably expect to get away with it. /s
There's a variety of well known ways to launder bitcoin. Most popular ones being

- You could use a tumbler.

- You could use an exchange without KYC. Not all exchanges are US based.

- You could use websites such as morphtoken (preferably over a VPN, TOR, or i2p proxy) convert to any blockchain (perhaps Dash to create anonymized transactions) then convert back to BTC.

And a few more...

Playing the stock market is a huge risk as the SEC can probably filter down most participants who would've benefitted. It's far riskier.
Can you explain how his tweet “marginalizes people of color”?

His position, from what I understand, is that the ML algorithm which reconstructed a photo of Obama as white was biased solely because the training data set consisted of mostly white people. If it had been a more diverse data set then the algorithm would have behaved more appropriately.
I also hit errors following links to twitter more often than not, reliably, on all sorts of environments. It feels like they’re doing some kind of cache-related routing based on headers. Often “refresh” doesn’t fix it, but hitting enter in the address bar does. Seen on iOS, macOS, Windows, and Linux, mostly in very normal browsers (I’d expect mobile Safari in particular is at least on their top-5 most-seen browsers). I’d assumed they were trying to annoy me enough that I install their app. I’ve seen many others report the same kind of reliable, very frequent errors.

Notably, I’m also not logged in, which might be another thing they’re trying to get me to do and another difference between those who hit this more often than not, and those who rarely or never see it. It’s been like this for years.
The first program I used with math on input was alphacam, it was mind blowing to me when I discovered it. Any time I use a program with out it now it feels lacking. The Godot editor has this feature too, just to drop another great piece of open source software with it.

I don't think it was the kind of "seed" you're thinking of. I guess it's the next step up from their usual practice of throwing piss at people. More in line with the spirit of the "summer of love", as it were.
It's more than morale, it's just being a good human.

If a promotion is coming down to how someone got thanked by a peer, if that's the differentiator like some of these poster are suggesting, then it's probably not a great place.

Be a good human, thank people and express gratitude whenever they help you. Our culture has become so jaded in some many ways that it actually sort of disarms some folks. they will help you more in the future. When someone asks for help, help them, stretch to do it, it can be hard to ask for help so make it worth their while to take that risk. Give praise, it costs you nothing. It will pay dividends in the long run, big ones that you probably can't imagine yet. Being someone that people like to work with is huge...
Thanks, but I'm turning into a miserable, no skills, scrooge so I don't think that will be the case much longer.

Aside from the fact that companies often patent things they can't/won't/don't produce, it looks like even in the patent we have a system that allows for the insertion of a prescription lens into the glasses, creating a multi-lens or multi-surface display substrate.

I see an allusion to some other voltage-controlled liquid crystal technology that may be able to correct for vision issues as well, but in my opinion what we're probably seeing here is:

A) inside the HMD, there exists some form of micro-adjustment mechanism that can focus the content that is being displayed. For e.g. I may have good enough vision that I don't need glasses, but my IPD is such that the display is out of focus for me specifically. That's what I imagine is happening with the main glass. Remember, with something like "everyday glasses" there doesn't exist an IPD adjustment like you'd see in AR/VR headsets, and this setting can greatly affect the crispness of the display.

And then...

B) for customers that require more substantial vision correction, allow them to also introduce their prescription lenses in front of that main display.
