I've been looking again at Clojure recently, and it seems to have that feature of lisps that their language feature-set seems to just settle over time; unlike Javascript and even Python, it's pretty much the same as it was a few years ago. Instead, it's implementations like Babashka that are providing most of the innovation.

I think this is a good thing! Though I do worry a bit that Clojure can look more moribund than it is. I see a lot of people exploring the language for the first time saying "this tutorial is from 2013, is it still valid?". The answer is mostly yes, but with some changes in tooling that can be dispiriting for beginners, and may make them think the whole ecosystem has gone rusty.
Why impose export restriction when the other party is doing it with import restrictions to the same effect
I never said that "systemic" means "official". Those are very different things. What I'm saying is that it could be systemic if companies commonly granted certain groups of people special access that others couldn't obtain. This simply isn't the case and is widely condemned.
Navalny did not support the annexation of Crimea. He merely pointed to the fact that it is not that easy now to give it back to Ukraine and that ultimately after years of stabilisation and negotiation, Crimean popolation will have to decide in a trustable and open referendum.

I’m not saying I agree with this idea - perhaps a dedicated attacker could get around both systems.

They still have nuclear weapons. And they have enough propaganda / hybrid war capability to get Trump elected. Maybe not a world superpower but dangerous nonetheless.

I'm more interested in why Russia still tries to continue Cold War and fight the West. Contrary to what many Russians believe (or at least what they write online), West is not out to get them - other than to sell them shitty products made in China with crazy markup and make them watch internet ads.

Meanwhile China is slowly taking over Siberia with all the mineral and material goodies and they aren't doing anything about that.

Not that I don't believe you, but how would you back such statement when you say "majority".
Well, yes and no. We say things like "the star wants to go nova" when we mean "stars at this stage in their development tend to go nova" - but the star doesn't want, any more than it dreams or fears to go nova. Anthropomorphizing might help us generalize about things made by people (who do want, dream and fear) though I don't think that's always the case, but I would say it isn't always useful for non-human (and especially non-living) systems.

> From what I've learned so far, the set theory suffers from Russel's Paradox

So-called "naive set theory" does, but my understanding is that this paradox (and others like it) sparked a crisis in mathematics that led to the creation of ZFC and others. ZFC is not known to be inconsistent (due to deep and technical reasons, I can't claim positively that it is consistent), and it was designed to avoid the paradoxes that plagued naive set theory.

Russell's type theory was another early contender for a formalism. For whatever reason (I'm not aware of all the details), Zermelo-Fraenkel set theory (later extended with the Axiom of Choice) won the popular mindshare. Personally, I'm more a fan of the Elementary Theory of the Category of Sets (ETCS) [1], which is indeed drawn from category theory. But it's equivalent in deductive power to ZFC, so what you pick mostly only matters if you're doing reverse mathematics. (This is what really answers your question, I think.)

Russell's type theory and modern type theories are distinct (and there is no single "type theory"). I'm led to believe the commonality is primarily with the usage of a hierarchy of universes, so that entities in one unverse can only refer to entities in a lower universe.

~1500 people were given both a questionnaire about their opinions on covid containment measures as well as....to use a quote from the study

>answered facets from the PID-5, the Affective resonance factor of the ACME

They then took those that scored lower on certain traits, matched them with their answers on the covid questionnaire and drew the conclusion that those who disagree with lockdown measures are sociopathic.

This study is bad science, its conclusions are flawed and the news keeps spreading this utter bullshit as fact.
I think the current fundamental structures are influenced by the Bourbaki group, however it has gaps. Category Theory is likely able to fill those gaps and I guess it will end up as the foundational layer of both mathematics, computer science, and pretty much everything else.

That’s demonstrably false. I have plenty of friends in university right now who love school and have great memories of it going all the way back to kindergarten.

I didn’t love high school but I enjoyed elementary school and I love university. I can also think of a few changes that would have made high school a much better experience. Now that I’m in university, I see how much better it could be!

The two-byte skip was typically used to skip over a jump instruction, giving you a conditional branch. But in many cases, two instructions were enough to implement the conditional case.

The two-instruction skip could also be used in tricky ways to implement two entry points to a function. E.g.

Entry 1: Set Accumulator bit 1
If accumulator bit 1 set, skip two instructions
Entry 2: Set something different for entry 2
More setup for entry 2
Code continues for both entry 1 and entry 2

Redis Topologies Overview
I don't have those answers, but it's been widely reported that the carbon footprint of a calorie of chicken is about one quarter the footprint of a calorie of beef.

Just switching animal proteins is a big change. And chickens are omnivores. Feeding them invertebrates instead of feed corn would be a more natural diet for them, and you can use food no longer fit for humans as the feedstock for those invertebrates without switching humans to cricket flour.

I know of a guy who uses cows, pigs, and chickens to control pathogen load on his farm. The lifecycle of flies on cow manure are very predictable, and with some discipline you can use it as feedstock for the chickens. We know how to do this outside, I doubt they know how to do it in a feed lot (although, making it work in a feedlot would necessarily result in better sanitation for the cows/pigs, since you'd have to isolate their waste chronologically).

Part of pathogen control is sending your inputs through as many diverse digestive tracts as you can. Or using a ton of chemicals. Mammal->insect->chicken->human is pretty good for eliminating parasites, though maybe not salmonella.

[ETA]
Most of what I said about chicken feed is also true of pigs, although their footprint is somewhere between the two extremes.

Probably impossible to actually do and enforce here, but would definitely make people overall be nicer and more considerate of others (and in the case of cleaning schools, more likely to clean up after themselves).

ZFC Set Theory avoids Russell's paradox by having a few fundamental axioms that preclude it. It's actually mentioned in your wiki link in the `Set-theoretic responses` section.

ZFC is a bit messy sometimes, but it's actually kind of nice in its simplicity. I am a big fan of TLA+, for example, and it's really kind of beautiful how easily you can define incredibly precise invariants by using the set theory predicate logic.
IANAM, but...

1. I thought mathematics was moving more towards a category theory based foundation, as opposed to the set theoretical stuff.

2. Isn't it in part because we have over 120 years of results and proofs that are based on set theory, and people aren't just going to throw that out for something newer? Granted, Category Theory has been around in some form since about the 1940's, but it's still newer than set theory.

3. Russell's Paradox hasn't stopped people from using Set Theory to achieve useful results, and the axiomatization of Set Theory and the advent of ZFC is why (or at least part of why) that was possible, no?

By matching what happens in Belarus now to Russia.

It was long believed, even in US, that Lukashenka had the majority. In reality, he faked all elections since 1994.

Once his deeds became hard to ignore even for pathetically peaceful Belarusians, all the population turned against him. Gosh, the exit poll in my voting station recorded only one vote for Lukashenka among 358. I was there watching the exit poll for a couple of hours. I fully trust the organizers, but one in 358... I could not even imagine it.

Same for Russia.

P.S. Yes, I have a Belarusian passeport. Yes, I run a Russian-speaking community site. Pass on.

I did normalize by number of favorites too, so each person had 1 vote shared over all their favorites. The idea that a person who only had one favourite was a really strong signal for that single link, whereas people who have lots of favorites are using it differently to what I want to select for.

At some point I had a similar selection of Ask HN dominance. One problem with my data is I only grabbed the first page of favorite results.

EDIT: SHOOT, you exposed a bug, my parser skips things things without URLs! Hence I ended up filtering out most of the Ask HN's!

EDIT: Fixed it

Now my list looks a bit more similar to yours but not quite. Currently "Ask HN: What books changed the way you think about almost everything?", your #1 is my #50. If I turn off normalization, it goes to #13 on my lists, so that has quite a significant impact on the rankings.

The big thing for me is that (Open) Solaris felt like a single solid product, the same feeling I always got from FreeBSD. Whereas the various Linux distributions always felt like a grab bag of various pieces, some of which worked well and others were still rough around the edges.

Little things, like the days of LILO for a boot loader. It had to maintain a map of disk blocks that contained the kernel and initial ram disk, so if the kernel or initrd was re-written to /boot you had to re-run the lilo command to refresh its map (otherwise your system wouldn't boot). Took forever to get something that understood the filesystem. But what replaced it (Grub) I always felt was over-engineered. To me, the perfect successor to lilo would have been the tooling from isolinux (there were boot loaders that natively understood fat32, ext4, and other filesystems without having to have a mini OS built into the boot loader) -- just seemed to be more elegant to me.

Then there were promising technologies that just up and disappeared (at least for a while) such as userfs. We now have fuse, but there were multiple years of distribution versions that didn't have either. Also, there were patches for older kernel versions that supported containers, but they were never mainstream until we got the current mix of process isolation features which enables things like Docker.

Speaking of which, why is it that Solaris has an easy way to back out of an OS update (using Zones), but that same process (using Linux containers and snapshots) doesn't exist in any of the modern Linux distributions?

ZFC does not suffer from Russel’s paradox, since it doesn’t allow a “set of all sets”. If it did, the search for new foundations would be much more widespread. New foundations are usually only considered seriously once they can be shown to be relatively consistent with ZFC or the slightly stronger but still uncontreversial TG set theory.

There are people working on categorical foundations, but the main reason for lack of broader popularity or drive is that most mathematicians don’t do work that is “foundational” in that sense. For example, if you’re an analyst, you generally don’t care exactly how your real numbers are built (dedekind cuts, Cauchy sequences, etc.). You only care that they satisfy a certain set of properties, you can define functions between them, and that’s about it. Most mathematical reasoning at this level is insensitive to differences in proposed foundations, except “constructive” foundations that don’t have the law of excluded middle (that are unpopular since they make many proofs harder and some impossible).

What is very popular in mathematics is using category theory at a high level; basically every field uses its concepts and notation to some degree at this point. New foundations are only really relevant to this program in that they may make automated proof checking easier, which is also not a widespread practice in mathematics.
