Not noticeable by anyone. That's been the case for years, since everything Intel has is an improvement upon Haswell/Skylake.

> GPU

For anyone who cares about GPUs, these processors will be paired with some nVidia or (unlikely) AMD chips, so they'll be unused, just like most Intel IGPs.
For me the most interesting part is how it gets rid of the JVM startup time.

So there are two parts to the solution: The first part is Small Clojure Interpreter (sci) which is a "(subset of) Clojure written in Clojure", so kind of McCarthy for Clojure. A cool project in itself but it still needs a VM to run.

So here is where the second part comes in: the GraalVM produces native binaries from various things, including Clojure code and SCI is simple enough to work with GraalVM.

It's cool how these two pieces of tech combine together to create something greater than the sum of the parts.
> Relying on the difference between the pre and post variations of these operators is a classic area of C programmer ego showmanship.

Ugh. He's talking about inline use of post-increment and pre-increment (i.e. x++ and ++x) here. This is perfectly readable to a C programmer, and sidestepping them actually makes the code harder to understand.
Also, whilst the patreon style model has been successful for some, for most creators it simply isn't effective. Unfortunately, a tipping system just doesn't seem to work

I'm happy to write blog posts for local alternatives to online tooling if you can share things you'd want
Hi and welcome back to the year 2000, where a non-trivial number of users operate at sub-800x600 resolutions and the only reliable cross-platform tool for page layout is HTML tables. You can't even reliably switch stylesheets based on viewport size, and even if you could, CSS support is laughable. Netscape can't reflow, it has to redraw the entire page.

While it's clear that the max-width was added later, it seems to be done so in order to maintain the layout that was clearly created back in those days.

Thankfully simple layouts like this are trivial to zoom, as other commenters have pointed out.
I tuned out to those the moment I got to middle school and realized that I did not have to write all my assignments in pen, use cursive, or risk having my assignment shredded if I forgot to put my name on it.

This will be garbage food, it's arrogant to believe you can add "some of this and some of that" and that it will be a good food source for humans.

If you just a bit of too much or too little of something you will create a nutritionally deficient human.

All of these "artifical foods" are garbage, these "scientists" don't understand that real food is such a complicated blend of so many different things that you cannot just recreate it from some base building blocks like proteins, vitamins etc..

I wonder how much these will be deliberately crippled by laptop manufacturers putting them in systems with barely adequate cooling and/or turning down the power limits far below what they can actually handle.

I have heard others with relatively recent laptops say they see the CPU go into power/thermal limiting if they barely exercise it with a few seconds of compilation. The power limit can be worked around with utilities, the thermal one not so much...
This is a nothing burger. Intel doesn't have anything. AMD pwnd them throughly and they are desperately trying to and failing to match them. That is all.

Please note the lack of shipping dates and the positioning of these at "premier consumer" laptops meaning they can't produce enough still -- who the heck wants an 1500 USD IdeaPad? What's the point when the X1 Carbon Gen 7 is 1200 USD? You can spin that as "but that's previous generation" as if it meant anything at all. On the business side (14nm CPUs they can make plenty of), Intel hasn't produced anything new for three years now, they just change the labels so they announce something "new".

I quite like the favorite feature. I did not know until reading this post though that you could favorite comments as well - I'll be sure to utilize that in the future.

Others have mentioned that the favorite feature is of little utility because they are using other bookmarking software (browser/browser extensions, etc.). I would say, personally, that I still love the favorite feature on HN because my typical collection of bookmarks contains a whole variety of things - history, politics, music, self-help stuff, etc. The stuff I read and favorite on HN are of an entirely different set of information and curiosity and thus, I really do find it useful to have them all collected in one convenient location.

for (auto foo : list) assert(foo);

The problem is that the assert() macro disappears in release mode, causing foo to trigger an unused variable warning. You need to (void)foo; as well.

On a related note, since assert() is removed in release mode, assert(fn_with_side_effects()) will fail to run the function in release mode. You need to separate it into two lines.

The big problem in the US is the lack of automated speed enforcement. When you have officers doing traffic enforcement it inevitably turns into a corrupt shit show, and if you're black, you might not even live through it.

Although its now 2020, where every 300 gram toy drone will automatically refuse to fly anywhere near an airport. It took 0 drones taking down 0 airplanes to do that. Modern cars can trivially enforce the speed limit, but we have ten thousands of deaths and counting every year and it's not happening.
Yeah, I was trying to not be too aggressive about it, but OpenSolaris is literally my favorite OS of all time, and I'm a little annoyed that a decade later everything else has only managed to match it, and then poorly. ZFS is still better than any other filesystem, zones are still equal to LXC and only just eclipsed by Docker (and then, only in UX), eBPF may finally be better than DTrace, and pkg is just as good as dnf/zypper (and IMO better than apk/apt/pacman).

> To me, the perfect successor to lilo would have been the tooling from isolinux

Wouldn't that just be syslinux (/isolinux/extlinux)? On systems where I pick the bootloader, I usually use that since old grub is dead and grub2 is way more complex than I like.

> 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?

Isn't that more of a ZFS+beadm thing than a zones thing? FWIW, openSUSE can do that using BTRFS. It... okay, again I honestly think ZFS+pkg did it better than BTRFS+zypper, but it does work quite well. You can also add it using things like snapper on Arch Linux if you're using a snapshotting filesystem.
I'm aware that nearly all nuance in discussing economic systems has been absolutely obliterated, but I must say that I can't think of any modern functioning societies that actually mix (the socialist bedrock of) public ownership of the means of production with (the capitalist bedrock of) private property on a macro level.

If you look at the federal budget, most of it goes to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. So by the numbers, the federal government's primary function is to take money from working people, and transfer it to the states and the retired.

Syncthing works pretty well in my experience, even across NAT. I recently shared 10GB worth of photos with a family member and ~30min later it was done.
Again, this is a canard. Local government in some areas have been shown to make bad decisions that trample on explicit and enumerated rights (rather than the arbitrary or vague "rights" that are conjured to impede reform).

Speaking broadly, and particularly of the late 20th century, when the federal government has stepped in to unilaterally overrule state and local government, it has been on the right side of history. There are, of course, a number of infamous exceptions, but the fact that I would likely be unable to converse with you w/o the federal gov't's historic interventions speaks loudly to their efficacy in suh matters.
True enough, but starting at 9:00 AM instead of 7:30 AM still leaves plenty of time for that. It wouldn't have been enough for me, but an extra hour and half of sleep would have been way better than nothing.

I also suspect that starting at 11 AM-1 PM and going until 4-5 PM, despite being less overall time, would produce vastly better academic outcomes in high school just due to the average teenage circadian rhythm and the resulting zombification of current students. The noneducational duties of high school could be handled by letting students show up earlier as needed with breakfast/lunch provided- the structured classes would just start later.

Maybe give the early arrivers a place to take a nap while we're at it.
> I think it shows that a sizable portion of the citizenry considers this acceptable.

That only makes sense if you assume a sizable portion of the citizenry knows about it.

I think people assume that cops are imperfect and let people off if they know them, or feel like it (the average hetero male cop probably lets disproportionately more pretty girls off with a warning), but that as a judgement call it's hard to alter (and there are good reasons to allow judgement calls). That it's often formalized and systematized into cards that are given out is another thing entirely, and I think you need to prove the average person knows it's happening before you can use it as evidence as to how average people feel.
Is there a country where market based health insurance works? Specifically where it works without there also being a strong public health insurance option. For instance in Germany you are required to be insured and as a young healthy person you can save money by choosing a private option. But eventually as you get older your insurance costs will go up. So most people choose and are extremely happy with the public option TK.

A private health insurance marketplace seems like the type of industry ripe to take advantage of consumers. And what if the health insurers in the market conspire to fix prices? The government or a class action suit could fight against it but that's the type of corrupt business practice at large that could take over a decade to correct.

Free-at-point-of-care does reduce costs because it reduces complexity. Once hospitals don't have to haggle with insurance companies, they can fire a bunch of administrators and thereby reduce costs.
Thank you for pushing back on this horrific take.

What OP is proposing is literal genocide. As you said, language is "a key to a culture," and so many such cultures—and, therefore, the lives of their adherents—have been wiped out or critically threatened by more ruthless, or opportunistic groups. A good example is the notion to "Kill the Indian, Save the Man," as practiced by Canadian Residential Schools.

Those were acts of genocide meant to erase the productive knowledge of a sovereign people, to erase their child-rearing, agricultural, architectural, and textile methods. To destroy their educational line and skillsets, to make them dependent on the new colonial regime, its modes of production, its agricultural tools and paradigms.

It's genocide, and to destroy the language is the quickest way to perform it, by immediately cutting them off from their informational archives, be they written or oral.
These are really inefficient incentives. With UHC it would be possible to lower health costs, freeing up budget for the military to increase wages for recruits, for example. In HN language, this is tight coupling that in the end would work far better in a loosely coupled manner for both UHC and the military.
interesting idea, but probably even less viable than full universal healthcare politically. individual rates are not really the true cost of insurance. they're just the rates you get when you can't negotiate as a group. you would lower the standard of living for pretty much everyone with a full-time job and give them nothing in exchange.
I would bet it has less to do with school being hell and bet it had more to do with less Instagram bragging. Everyone is basically at home on lockdown with is fairly equal. No one is really out traveling or doing anything cool.

You know what I don't get? There is no penalty for violating the highest law of the land (the constitution). How is it anymore than a suggestion or a guidline if government officials are not punished for violating it? And that is exactly how lae enforcement and intelligence community treat it.

The US constitution needs lots of updates but this maybe the most important item -- manadatory prison terms for anyone acting on behalf of government who is found violating the bill of rights or any restriction set by articles of the constitution.
Transferring money "to the states" while requiring them to not only spend it in a specific way but add even more money to that pot first if they want to get it at all is in reality transferring money from the states.

A fascinating watch. It is a shame that the economics do not play out in such a way that recovery and resale is feasible. Sadly, I do not expect most governments to be as proactive as Norway’s on the matter.

The documentary suggests that even covering a wreck with sand as a preventative measure costs 10s of millions of €s. Surely an opportunity for a lower cost solution exists here?

There is lots of support for unions in HN comments. It may even be the majority position by a slight margin. (Police unions are an inverted special case right now.)

If find that if I am trying to test values that are not 'fully realizable' (infinite, lazy, etc) there's typically a temporal aspect involved, and I have a 'mock clock and timer' implementation so that I can call a `time.advance(t)` from within my tests and time advances in my system under test. This works because (as OP also noted) I only use my own mockable abstractions for answering the question 'what time is it?' and for instructing the system 'call me back at time t'. The net effect being I can fully define the behavior of the system within an arbitrary window of time—and collect the resulting values or behavior into some data structure which encodes what happened and when, and then compare it against expected results.

Re immutable: the values you're getting from your system under test and the expected values you're constructing in tests should always be immutable!

That's untrue. You need to include the declarations of im_11_0, etc. for the above to work and then you end up with just as much code. There's no reason they couldn't extend match to operate on bit slices also which would make this identical.
