Yep. Lua has a bunch of advantages even over python.

* It can be embedded in the viewer, so the user doesn't have to install a separate distribution of libraries. Only the viewer.

* It should be faster than python, even without luajit. Currently everything is done in lua, but I'm planning to write the main loop (converting the object graph into meshes and the rendering) into Rust. And have lua dsl fill in some arrays via C FFI.

* Lua has a special syntax for function calls that pass an object. Ex: do_something(obj) can be written as do_something { field = value }. This and some partial application can be used to make some very nice DSLs. Ex:

difference (
sphere { r = 3 },
cube { w = 2, h = 2, d = 2 }
)

* Lua is a very simple language, which can be easily picked up. That being said, Python as used in CadQuery is also simple.

And yes, fillet and chamfer seem to be missing openscad. There is a way to do a 2d shape then add rounded corners then extrude it. But that seems to be new, and it's a bit tricky. I'm thinking about adding a fillet modifier that finds all the sharp edges in an object and rounds them. It might be more difficult than it sounds, but, will see. Fillets and chamfers are also important for visualisations, since in nature there are no perfect sharp corners afaik.

"but I'll also readily admit I did not foresee the current market rally"

Given you didn't see that, have you considered that your view of Zimbabwe might be wrong? Nothing to do with confidence and everything to do with a silly policy to redistribute land to people that can't farm.

QE doesn't give money away for free does it. It is always an asset purchase. That is a qualitative difference.

Similarly a bad pilot doesn't mean heavier than air flight is impossible. You just need a better pilot.

You might feel like there is a practical distinction between the two, but for legal purposes there isn't. If Epic wins their case then their theory of Apple's "monopoly" over their own products will also directly apply to Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo, and any other hardware device where the manufacturer controls what software is allowed to run on it.

Taiwan has the one single most important asset of all: territory.

And no, TSMC is not important. In fact, it is irrelevant.

Ask yourself the question, would you give up Hawaii? What if they wanted to go independent, and reinstate their monarchy? What would you do?

Supposedly, in a democracy, you should be able to vote for your own independence. But in reality, that never happens.
Gorsuch is the most libertarian-leaning Justice we’ve had in decades. Others on the short list, such as Barrett or Kethledge, also have significant records of originalism with respect to the scope of the administrative state.

I don’t think libertarians realize where we are in 2020. Lots of culture war stuff from the last few decades where libertarians sided with liberals (abortion, contraception, same-sex marriage) has now flipped and then battleground is keeping the government from forcing people to participate in those things: Catholics being forced to perform elective abortions, nuns being forced to pay for contraception, people being forced to participate in same-sex weddings as bakers (and presumably caterers, etc.)
In the current legal environment exported by the US, it might be better to have licensed patented technology. Otherwise one leaves opportunity for trolls to patent and sue companies in that space.
To quote Keynes, "markets can remain irrational longer than you can stay solvent"
I don't think it has anything to do with being smarter than anyone else. We are still learning, and tuning, based on customer feedback and our own continuous testing. Cloud infrastructure evolves rapidly, and that can present challenges in repeatability when that goal is not taken into consideration with how changes are deployed. This is something we're listing to customers on as well, and trying to find a good balance between delivering predictable and repeatable large scale experiments with making continuous improvements in performance and capabilities.

One way to ensure repeatability is to build a static cluster that does not materially improve in performance or capabilities (from the underlying infrastructure perspective) during its installed life.

I'll go back and review the Twittwr thread to see if I could have said things better. There is no firm position on if the underlying SRD transport algorithms should be publically standardized or not. Practically speaking, I think it would be premature to do so at this moment. But that does not mean it is out of the question for the future, nor does it mean that more information about the implement cannot be shared with customers and the broader HPC community. Generally speaking, customer feedback is an important part of helping drive the overall direction
and prioritization.

Why let a competitor take advantage of you?

Being morally right is of no use when it hurts your own citizens.
That's funny. If I had heard about that product when it was announced, I probably would have backed it.

I used to use an iOS app called FreakyAlarm. It had all sorts of features to enforce wake up time. You could set it to just require that you solve a math problem, or move the hands on an analog clock to "28/4:(36+15)" (Meaning, move the hour hand to 7 and the minute hand to 51.), and all sorts of "games" that you're unlikely able to do in a half-asleep state.

But my favorite was the barcode scanner. You scanned a random UPC (I chose my shaving cream), and in the morning the alarm would not shut off until you went and scanned it again. But that got me in trouble once when I was on a business trip, and didn't pack that particular brand of shaving cream.

Of course it's just an iOS app, so you can force quit it and uninstall it faster than doing any of the tasks. But I preferred honor to cheating that way.

I don't use any alarm clock anymore. I have dogs. They're remarkably consistent.

Ok, I'll tell you how it goes in the real world. I worked for a somewhat HN-famous pentesting company several years ago.

"So, X has been infiltrating <company> for the past few days."

"Really? <company>? <famous company>?"

"Yep. We're keeping them looped in on everything, and they told us to try to get as far as possible. Apparently they were running <outdated version> of <software> on one of their boxes, and <scanner> picked it up."

"That actually happens?"

"He's <highly surprising claim> right now. You'd be surprised how far you can get, jumping from one box to another."

I can't give much more detail than that, for obvious reasons, but the reality is that it's very methodical, very "boring" work. It's basically a giant matrix of probabilities: there are hundreds of thousands of attack vectors, and your job is to tap as many as possible, sorted by probability of effectiveness, until something sticks. Then use your head to get further, adapting to the situation on the fly.

And ... writing reports. Jesus, if someone had told me that 70% of your day would be spent writing reports, I probably wouldn't have joined. But the 30% of other stuff made up for it.

That feeling you get when you break into somewhere you're not supposed to be, and that you were paid to do it, is amazing. The rules change from engagement to engagement, but usually it's "do whatever you want, but don't modify any data, i.e. no destructive actions, and all info you've collected will be deleted at the end of the engagement."

Must be interesting to be a spook in the NSA doing that kind of stuff offensively.

Also, it might seem absurd that I'm comparing this story to the most elite hackers in the developed world. And maybe it is. But if you knew which <company> it was, and exactly what <highly surprising claim> was, you'd be shocked that one or two smart developers poking at internals were able to compromise the entire corporate network of <famous company>, to the point of being able to... well. Let's just say, I wish I could say. It's a weird feeling, seeing it with my own eyes, knowing it's true, and never being able to talk fully about it. :)

So I imagine the NSA spooks are doing similarlly-methodical work, with some cheat codes like "we intercepted their computer before delivery and installed a backdoor that only activates when we send a specially malformed packet that would normally be dropped and is therefore invisible, which grants us access as needed."

I think this is how you evaluate X% less: amount * (1 - (x / 100))

So 120% less of 10 rocks is -2 rocks, which obviously doesn’t make sense. Which is good, it shouldn’t make sense to have more than 100% less of something.

Just curious: in what sense is that startup niche not yet filled by any of the usual 3d parametric CAD programs like Rhino etc.?
The section of the rank and file that sabotaged him did so because they are possessed by a vile ideology that virulently opposes any concession by the powerful to the mass of the people. Being unable to befriend any of that metastatic species redounds greatly to Mr Corbyn's credit. They are not "good people".

Now Starmer may not be ideologically committed to the ruthless exploitation of the public like they are, but at the very least he harbours delusions about the possibility of compromising with a right wing, both within his party and in the media, that is implacably and rabidly opposed to any project of positive reform. They will never relent in their shameless calumny and perfidy until Labour's program has been completely neutered.

The terms “growth” and “value” nowadays are silly mechanical definitions that bear little relationship to any intelligent investing strategy. The worlds premier “value” investor Warren Buffett was buying Pepsi and Coke stock 50 years ago, and owns more Apple now than anyone.

Buffett will tell anyone who will listen that value investing is purchasing investments at discount offering a good margin of safety to a reasonable estimate of intrinsic value. Low price to book value or low price to earnings don’t remotely comprise the universe of good value investments.

T-Head's largest chip has 16 cores when built in 12nm. No idea what configuration AllWinner will be using, but the design itself is not a minnow.
Ouch. I have so many complicated thoughts trying to process the implications of that story, which I won’t try to sort out here. People are in denial about this, especially younger people with a fairly narrow view of both history and global politics, but what we are seeing is foreshadowing a civil war, and it’s getting increasingly difficult to see what might avert that outcome. There’s no question in my mind that we haven’t seen the worst of the riots and the violence yet. With the police forces being neutered all over the country, the inevitable response will be federal forces, and I think that is by design. Once that happens, we face a major escalation that will be very hard to unwind. We’ve learned now that these events are not rooted in any principle of justice (despite their clever PR that still appears to be fooling most) which means they can’t actually be avoided. They’re going to continue to capture any event they can to advance. I’m not even sure they realize what they are doing. Honestly, you can see the same ideological possession in so many of the comments in this thread.

Anthony Kennedy was nominated in 1987. The spot was vacant for 18 months. Dems unanimously confirmed him.
> You make a very weak argument that Obama’s administration was soft on China.

This is common knowledge. Look up "Scarborough Shoal", and Obama's inaction which resulted in China's takeover of the 9-dash line area.

The result of Obama's lack of deterrence is that the entire Asian region is arming for war now, which was entirely avoidable by sending a US carrier group there in a timely manner and just sailing in a circle.

As an aside, HN is around 3 months behind on news about China. You can get updated by watching some Youtube videos from the NTD family of channels. Virtually everything posted on HN is simply nonsense this quarter.

The "wring all the money out of the market" theory explains Hey and Fortnite, but not the many, many apps that receive arbitrary rejections, like this recent HN browser: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24410652

This arbitrary friction of "what if the user searches for covid" is applied to useful software, but not Candy Crush clones. So naturally the store fills with shit. Even in the free app tier!

In some weird way, this shows it's not all about the money, since they're fighting to keep out the quality free stuff too.
I think in practice it's the opposite - they brew actual coffee and blend in chicory for the authentic New Orleans taste kick.
OpenWRT doesn't run on Broadcom chips because the devs do not want to include non free software in OpenWRT and Broadcom only works on Linux with their proprietary blobs. The raspi thus requires this proprietary stuff in their Raspbian OS and afaik in all the third party OSs for it.

I used to be a typical C++ programmer but lately I have mostly been using C/C++ with other languages.

- C as a workaround for a Docker problem.

- C++ with C# in Unity.

- C++ in Android with Kotlin

As you hinted in the question, it is good to combine C++ with other skills.

If you want to stay purely in C++, then the automotive and aeronautical industries are heavy C++ users.

But as @gregjor says its best not to stick to one language. To add to that, I would recommend not to define yourself by the language you program in and instead be prepared to stay flexible and keep learning.

There are lots of jobs in systems software that almost all C and C++ with some scripting languages. I think in this field the most important things to understand are operating systems, Linux pthreads / syncronization, some hardware fundamentals so it memory coherence and fences make more sense.

The HN headline is click-bait.
The quote is 'more efficient' rather than cost effective and article goes on to say that it may been more expensive.

I'm guessing that 'more efficient' means you buy a 747 and film it being blown it up and move on to the rest of the film.

> If merely hearing an opinion threatens your model, that’s probably a warning sign indicating that your own ideas are fragile and unsustainable, and they need to be exposed to ideas that challenge them.

This doesn't strike me as a universal truth. It's good as a general principle to test your ideas against ones that challenge them and make sure they're as robust as possible -- but if that "challenging idea" is "your group has no right to exist," then it's not reasonable to argue "if merely hearing that you have no right to exist threatens your model, that's a warning sign that your own ideas are fragile and unsustainable," is it?
It's made for tinkering and learning. It's used for a lot more due to it being so easily replaceable.

I agree with gregjor, and I’ll just add that I recommend checking out these (highly entertaining) videos by Alex Stepanov, creator of the C++ STL: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHxtyCq_WDLXFAEA-lYoR...

In the first few lectures he lays out what he thinks it takes to be a great programmer. I’m pretty confident that there will be a job market for great programmers for at least the next 15 years.

I've found in every job I've had the best results were from being good at mixing c++ code with other stuff. I know how to work with a lot of languages, but am not really an expert in any of them except C/cpp. Some examples: ios/android apps (objC/java) but the visualization part is cpp. Huge rendering pipelines in Python, with specialized converters and renderers in cpp. Large complicated web thing but it needs to encode video fast, so that part is in a standalone cpp tool. At least half of the job is getting good at knowing what parts to write in cpp and what to write in something else.
Please read the above comments, in particular the part about critical business functions.
Should have just ran with it and called in StaLin.
