How did you reach this conclusion? I don't see any link between data demonstrating that most people spend at least one year in relative affluence and even the general concept of "personal responsibility," let alone some sort of specific causal relationship between the two.
I think this means that the Linux kernel only doesn't support the proprietary vendor-specific ASIC offloading mechanisms.

Linux already supports offloading even arbitrary eBPF/XDP programs to compatible NICs, which is already extensively used for DDoS mitigation (Cloudflare) or even Load Balancing (Facebook).

I'd be surprised if it didn't leverage these mechanisms to offload the kernel's own network stack as well, but haven't really checked to confirm...
I think implementing a general-purpose TCP/IP stack entirely in an FPGA is not likely to be very good return on investment, especially if you'll want stuff like filtering, (selective) packet capture etc.

However, specialized stacks for certain purposes are a relatively common thing. For example, most L23 network testing solutions use FPGAs to generate and receive massive amounts of (almost) stateless traffic (think line rate for 400GE using just 2 machines), while performing certain kinds of analysis on it (latency, loss). But these are usually just Ethernet frames or maybe IP datagrams with random payloads.
Yes. BPG (and H.265 it uses) may be technically excellent, but H.265 is a commercial patent-encumbered codec. Patents cover any implementation, even free and open-source ones, so in countries that allow software patents BPG is illegal to use without a patent license for H.265.

"Hope you're not worth suing" may be an OK strategy for many people using BPG on their websites, but it's a blocker for wide adoption of the format. The licensing situation is so bad, that the industry went all behind the AV1 alternative, and the AVIF format rides that wave.

I just want to say that I really enjoyed this article. I was surprised to see all the negativity here on HN about it! Thank you for writing it, as it really got me thinking. I've done some of these things before, but it's easy to lose the forest for the trees when you're deep down in the middle of solving some problem.
The README says "The goal of the project is to provide machine learning for everyone, both technical and non technical users"; that definitely sounds as though it's intended for non-technical users.

if the AoC did nothing more than codifying what was already the case when the land was just a bunch of GB colonies, I don't see how the AoC can be seen as analogous to the EU, which started from a set of distinct nations. it seems that all you're saying is that "within the colonies, there was free movement of labor and capital, and that continued after the revolution". that doesn't seem even remotely suprising - they were all colonies of a single nation.

we haven't mentioned the currency side of things - when the EEC/EU began, there wasn't even a common currency in use.
While I share your disappointment in the quality of the press release, Nature is by no means the bar for measuring significance. I've been both accepted and rejected by Nature, I've seen colleagues accepted and rejected by Nature, and I've found results published outside of Nature, Cell, Science more reproducible!
When you saw raw packets due you mean the libc network APIs or raw sockets?

It sounded like the latter but for anyone unaware such sockets require root/special privileges. It’s cool but of more limited general value and can be a security exploit as a user space exploit can launch really nasty network attacks that are otherwise impossible (hence why it’s not made available to user space).
From my understanding the verdict is still out on these. What test are you referencing and is it an FDA approved test?

As there was mention of SolarFlare cards, i'd just like to say that I had much success in a previous life with their products for reducing latency in trading systems - the products are really robust, and OpenOnload works really well.

At the most basic level you can run an existing binary under Onload (which basically uses an LD_LIBRARY_PATH to direct the socket system calls to their own stack) and get a significant performance improvement, especially if you are careful about how the card is configured, and to ensure your app is running on cores on the same socket that the network card is connected to.

Taking it further, you can use a zero copy API to get inbound packets whilst they are still in the network card buffer, and do very cool things with both hardware timestamping and pre-caching of packets on the network card memory (sort of like a message template) which can reduce the latency to sending responses if you have a set of stock responses you want to supply.

Anyhow, do check them out if you are into that sort of thing.
Re: ARM - spot on. They sold their XScale/StrongARM assets right around the same time Apple switched to them. They were probably riding high on that win.

However, market growth switched so quickly from PC to mobile/IoT, they couldn't get in. Instead, they just wasted resources on projects like Moblin which became boondoggles.

I said this somewhere else in the thread already but it sound like it could help you, get a genetic compatibility test for adhd meds, my doctor gave me a referral for one and it gave clear recommendations on which medications would likely be fine and which would have chances of negative side effects. Even without the referral I'm sure you can get a test like this privately for reasonable price.

These medications are serious and side effects can include thoughts of suicide so I'm always shocked when doctors try to wing it and just prescribe whatever and see how it goes. I'm hoping it's because they don't know about the genetic tests yet but some are likely willfully ignorant.

Show HN: Better Blinkist Front End
You welcome nationalism, racism, xenophobia, control, censorship, fragmentation, and authoritarianism under some rhetorical nonsense about "competition" and "regulation?" Clear the earwax out of your eyes libertarian utopianist and wake the fuck up to what's happening in the world. Big Brother isn't a solution to inverted totalitarian corporate control of public commons, it's the beginning of the end of individual liberties that you clearly don't care about, all you see is hypothetical dollar signs/rupees and mission statements.

They are purchasing fab time from TSMC right now because of the failure to produce 10nm for years but both sides are saying that it's only a temporary thing.

Now if you're talking about in the future, the biggest hurdle is going to be Apple and AMD since they got there first and already have contracts for specific amounts of fab time/wafers. Intel coming in now is basically only able to take whatever table scraps are left.
I would not trust any state run App Store. In past their “Aarogya Setu” app has been criticized for privacy concerns.
Note that the people who complained about Google’s review policy aren’t indie Developers but big Players like PayTM who benefited immensely from demonetization mandate.
Clearly violating a policy that’s in place to protect the user and then complaining that your app got taken down is ridiculous.
Agree, App Store review process isn’t perfect. There are mistakes in review process which get some apps wrongfully rejected. But I would rather have stricter policies than no/questionable review process.
Another point is specific to this govt. The govt and the PM don’t exactly have a great track record when it comes to minorities, which makes such interference more scary.

The exchange obviously does not get to collect transaction fees for transactions it fails to mediate. But that does not harm buyers or sellers. As noted, they get a vacation from paying fees, along with avoiding any profits and losses.

The exchange suffers, paying salaries and rent without income, but they deserve it for providing crappy service.

As someone who's similarly red-green colorblind, I'd say it's far more likely to be related to the amount of time he's spent reading and writing code on monochrome displays, perhaps coupled with market trends that tended to associate color with cheap/mainstream/gaming hardware vs. monochrome with expensive/professional/engineering hardware. For several reasons, there was a major trade-off between color and contrast/sharpness/resolution on most hardware until the mid-90s or so, and there was a tendency for engineering-oriented systems to embrace monochrome to get the highest contrast and resolution.
This doesn't seem like a paradox at all - isn't it a well known fact that intrinsic motivation trumps extrinsic motivation?
There is a fascinating series of books by Brian Bagnall on the history of Commodore:

This is an interesting observation. In many respects the TV has taken position that the fireplace used to have. What we're missing is thus those deep and cozy fireplace conversations. I also like the idea of nooks and crannies. Perhaps it's an idea to design future houses like that of native villages?

I think the meaning of the space in the house mentioned, wasn't just socializing, but also relaxing to music, and observing the sound (the water body) flowing by outside. Othwerwise the house isn't much bigger or smaller than other Norwegian 80's houses, only the layout is different and more inspired.

Walking around in Oslo, or any city, for that matter, there are many examples of various forms of architecture, and the difference between inspired and uninspired or cheap is striking. For instance, I have a rather ambivalent relationship to the institutional brick architecture springing out of 30's Funkis (Functionalism), that really reached its peak in the 70's and 80's evolving into Modernist structures. The uninspired or brutalist versions of it, are ghastly and cheap shells, while the inspired versions, such as Institute for Social Research in Munthes street in Oslo, gives off a feeling of welcoming peace and warmth.

I have often wondered about those spaces in hotels or office lobbies, where a divan or lounge chairs are set out, but serve no purpose, because no one in their right mind would ever consider sitting there.

Well, it's scientifically difficult to randomly assign people and assess effects for multiple decades. So the ideal evidence won't be available.

But if we accept a "nutrition science" level of evidence, then I'd say there is strong evidence showing the naturalistic longterm use of adhd meds is not dangerous. Especially considering our baysian prior: a person off the street would estimate far stronger negative effects of taking speed every single day.

In fact, adhd meds are correlated with healthier outcomes (of course, huge selection effects. Yes, eating kale will be associated with increased health, but it isn't causal)

I think Antirez may be just another puppet of the financial and corporate elite. Which might explain why he gets so much coverage on HN and why his open source projects have such high degree of adoption from corporations... And receives such big contracts.

He writes a lot of nice uplifting pro-social articles, but keeps dancing around the real issues and doesn't do enough to really help open source. From first-hand experience, he doesn't even bother to answer emails or messages from community members or from authors of other popular open source projects.
The newer ones run on LNG (which is better but still not remotely good).
Somewhat unrelated story, but I used to be in astronomy and two friends of mine were once on an observing run together. Observing can sometimes be a bit dull and as you're getting night shifted it's hard to do anything productive while you're waiting for the exposures to finish. So you're looking for ways to pass the time.

Anyway, somehow my two friends started looking at color blindness tests. One of them had grown up in Latin America and hadn't seen a color blindness test before, so the other was explaining how there's a number in the center that you can't see if you're color blind. And he said... "what number?" That was how he learned at age 26 that he was color blind.

> If we're talking about a dysfunctional reward pathway would it not stand to reason that someone's gravitation toward systems who provide thousands of small immediate rewards only reinforce this dysfunction?

This makes perfect sense to me.

But in the longest term, what actually /is/ the point? What is the reward that people are supposed to be pursuing /instead/ of video games, porn, and Instagram? We cannot pursue long-term goals if we don't have any. Where do they come from, those goals, that purpose?

> I feel kind of gross typing that out because it feels like some sort of appeal to nature but I can't shake it.

I wonder what you mean by this.

The apparent grossness of appeals to nature must stem from the fact that they have been used to justify injustice. But every form of argument is used to justify injustice -- so I don't think we should pre-emptively cut away our mind's ability to think naturalistic thoughts, just to avoid error. Maybe we have ignored Mother Nature for too long.

This brings me back to the original question, about purpose. Maybe it comes from Nature. Maybe a failure to enthusiastically perform for society means that the menu of options offered by that society contains nothing compatible with what Nature actually wants for us.

Porn is the best example. Why is it bad? What real thing is it simulating? What should you be doing instead?

Video games are similar: What real thing is being simulated?

You mention the development of competencies as an alternative. I agree that this is better. But what purpose of Nature's is served by the development of skills?

The feeling I can't shake is that addiction is the substitution of the simulated for the real, that increasingly everything is simulated, that the thing we are being distracted from is our own biological reality, and that we are, again artificially, trying to hack our own reward systems to be satisfied with goals that our not in our own Natures.

Red Hat is both a great example, and a horrible one all wrapped up into one. They are the OG, but I'm very skeptical that a new project could take the Red Hat 2000s playbook and apply it in the 2020s.

Because terrestrial TV and radios are strictly receive-only devices, whereas cable/satellite set-top boxes are connected to the provider's network (otherwise you can't get VOD or PPV, for instance). I guess it's possible for you to buy a receiver that's IOT enabled and phones home, but that'd be a conscious decision on your part.
I've had these debates way too many times. I am not getting into another one.

My stand is, burning dirty oil for people's enjoyment to the detriment of the oceans and the air is [insert bad words].

I said, use sailboats for leisure tourism. Plenty of fun.

At this rate, we'll fuck up the planet enough that governments will take the power in their hands and everyone will be forced to help with the cleanup.

If we don't do something now, out of our own volition, we're all going to end up with much more authoritarian governments and limits on individual freedoms. It's either that or civil wars. No way around it.
Hi thanks a lot. I received positive interactions on github from the community, however, your comment is the first encouraging feedback I ve got here :D so, I appreciate it.

I will take your suggestion into consideration. You are right, there should be more real-world examples that will help users get started and see how this can be useful.

The thing is, I started the project two weeks ago, so it still relatively new. I ve been coding day n night because the idea got me excited. I published the first stable release this week. However, there are new features that will be implemented in the next releases.
Pelican maintainer here. I really appreciate all the kind words. Maintaining any open source project can often feel like a thankless task, and so all the positive vibes in this thread mean a great deal to me.

You're confused. India has a populist, nationalist authoritarian who will stop at nothing to remodel the country somewhere between China and Nazi Germany.

The Indian government can block all other app stores, require
app developers and mobile OSes install spyware SDKs and turn over data about their users, and ban encryption. Then, the "subversives," academics, and journalists can be rounded-up.
And many of the door latches are/were heat sensitive strips of metal. When the temperature of the water inside the machine reaches a certain point, and after a period of heating up the metal door latch, the metal deforms and the door pops open. Then after the wash, everything cools down, and the metal reforms. There is just enough tension on the metal latch to make it latch closed and just enough deflection after heating to make it spring open.
