That's why I enjoy commenting on HN. It lets me refine ideas that are in my head in more detail.
I don't think in words, I think in terms of visuals, structures and logic so it requires a lot of practice to express my ideas succinctly in words.
Currently, I have a problem with editing too much. I have to re-read my text multiple times to make it match my mental model in an unambiguous way.
Trying to communicate concepts unambiguously to many people who have different mental models helps me to identify ambiguity in my own mental model too.

I enjoy reading responses on HN too (especially disagreements) because it sometimes helps me to identify words and phrases that are ambiguous and which I should avoid using.
You mean he's good or something else?
Of course it does. Undervolting is simply finding the lowest voltage your unit can stably work at.

The only result of undervolting on modern CPUs is lower temperature; performance actually goes up as the processor still aims to hit its set TDP/TPL limits.

Lower voltage = higher clocks for longer on all Intel CPUs that can be undervolted. I believe it's the same for new AMDs, but I haven't had the chance to test one.

You're basically fine tuning your pet rock - some silicon is higher quality and can do better than the stock voltages that were set for thousands/millions of units out of the factory.

In the case of many people, it worked the other way around.
I agree in this specific example the inner sort is meaningless. There are valid cases where a subquery can use an ORDER BY, such as when a LIMIT or OFFSET is specified.

I'd go to far to say that unless a query has an ORDER BY it is likely a bug to use LIMIT or OFFSET. In the absence of an ORDER BY the database is free to sort the rows any way it likes, and this could change between versions or based on any number of implementation details. If it appears to sort determinsitically with no ORDER BY it should not be relied upon.
Which is a sad choice on it's own
> CC is just a shitshow of processes permanently running

I HATE this so much that I have an AutoHotkey shortcut that I run after I'm done using any of the CC programs. It kills everything Adobe. I also have a Windows scheduled task that runs every 15 minutes that deletes any autoruns from Adobe in the registry, deletes any Adobe services, etc., because I found that they obnoxiously fully re-added things whenever I would open CC.
I realize this is a silly criticism, but it's strange that the author would write about how it's valuable to make a lot of stuff but then to only write 11 sentences about the topic. It seems like it would be much better way to demonstrate the point if the author wrote 100 pages about producing more work/art/code, without any rhyme or reason or editing. After all, the thesis is "Quantity leads to quality", why not just do that?

Of course, I appreciate concise writing and if it were 100 unedited rambling pages it would never be posted on HN or read by anyone. But admitting that seems to be antithetical to the entire point of the blogpost. It just seems like the article doesn't even believe in the idea. It also feels like there wasn't a whole lot of thought put into the post, and I guess that's evidenced by the fact that the art class anecdote doesn't have a source.

The blogpost also ignores all of the issues related to being prolific. Imagine a would-be-weightlifter who has awful form, but does a ton of reps. Not only is their exercise near worthless, it could be potentially dangerous. Or in music, where you could accidentally continually practice a bad habit instead of taking the time to find a mentor and learn how to practice correctly. In software, you could potentially produce something that is buggy and insecure by default. If the code were then included as a dependency in larger projects it could be a cause for a security disaster. I think there's more to high-quality work/practice than just doing it more often, even if that ends up being the most important part of getting good at something.

The best opportunity being a bad one was my reason for calling it "broken".

Unemployment alone wouldn't be a measure of a good labor market, but a good labor market can have high unemployment as an expected side effect. It's only a "better" situation, if the unemployed people are better off in that labor market too (i.e. social safety nets exist).

This isn't going to piss off current customers though, it's going to piss off customers from fifteen years ago, who haven't upgraded, or maybe the freeloaders that used CS2 lately.

A lot of people were pissed off about Adobe stopping perpetual licenses, but that didn't hurt their bottom line. In fact, they increased revenue because a subscription is a low upfront cost.

Most of the people complaining about this are non-customers whose strong-held beliefs on how to license software have been offended. These people don't matter to Adobe's business.

If a project desires attracting contributors, it needs to reduce friction points as much as possible. Github is the code repository with which most developers are familiar. Once you contribute to one project on Github, you can more easily transfer that knowledge to contribute to a second project also hosted on Github then on other competing site, whether they use git or no.

Given the current situation, contrary to what the author affirms, important open source project that wish to attract contributors should probably use Github.

Yeah also to note that strings in powershell are 16-bit chars.

In Dutch, like in German, we write compound words without a space, so you can also invent completely "new" words. If I enter such words in Google Translate most of them are correctly translated to English and French. Granted, splitting a word into its compound parts (= several existing words with maybe an "s", "e", or "en" between them for easier pronunciation) is easier than having a base word + inflection + changes for pronunciation, but it shouldn't be impossible for an AI to do this. I do think you'll probably need custom rules or extra information per language, corresponding roughly to some grammatical rules or patterns.
Eich isn't just a homophobe in private, but actively sought to impinge on others' rights based on their sexuality. I joined Mozilla just after Eich had left, but had I been there at the time I wouldn't have wanted to work for him. I wouldn't want the proceeds of my work to earn him money, allowing him to donate money seeking to reduce LGBT rights.

If enough of his employees feel the same way, and there is enough negative press from others (who are also just democratically expressing their opinions), then clearly his position as CEO was untenable.

To equate that to destroying someone's livelihood based on their political beliefs is exactly the sort of mental gymnastics which keeps me coming back to this site.

I have been bitten too by the abandoning of silex and symfony becoming more and more like a complex java beast. The zend framework 1 was once good with a simple abstraction but they turned java like too.

Nowadays i develop in laravel which is breeze to work with. A simple framework and you can choose whether to use it as simple as silex, full blown like symfony or somewhere between. I started using it like a silex with controller classes and migrated more and more to the symfony way, but still its really easy understandable for any new developer.

> All male teams made up 83% of the startups but they raised 93% of total funding, which means that they raised larger sums.
First here is the original letter to Nature about new colliders: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41567-020-01054-6
I am certainly a supporter of new colliders, although there are other avenues of constraining particle physics models such as astrophysics, cosmic rays, direct detection experiments that need to be funded. But the authors of that letter to Nature and physicists in general need to be careful about promises, otherwise nobody is going to believe us in the future. And there is a tendency of promising a lot in order to get funding. And for the authors of the article to claim that "A good example of a guaranteed result is dark matter." is just blatant lie. I wish there was an experiment that would for sure tell us what dark matter is. (I'm an astrophysicist myself)
Well, it sure would be great if all laptop BIOS had these options. The vast majority don't.
I'm not sure I get your point.

If you think TLS is adequate to stop a VPN provider figuring out what you're doing, why isn't it good enough to stop the ISP/Government/evil coffee chain IT team?
> But that’s almost always because the designer had to resolve some ambiguities present in the grammar.

Not if they started with a grammar that didn't have any ambiguity in the first place.

I think you're coming from the angle that you always start with a CFG, resolve ambiguity, then write a parser.

Imagine that I never write a CFG for my language. No CFG exists! Instead - I start by writing a PEG, and then I write a recursive descent parser from that. At no point in this process have I had to resolve ambiguity. I didn't start with an ambiguous CFG and then write a PEG from it. I started with a PEG. It's never been ambiguous, and never will be ambiguous. There's no ambiguity.

> The grammar fragment “expr :: IF expr THEN expr ELSE expr” is ambiguous.

Right.... but I wouldn't write that because I'm not starting with a CFG I'm starting with a PEG.

> Telling your puzzled users “it’s not ambiguous, it always goes with the farthest IF!” isn’t going to make them happier.

I can't understand this - if I give them a simple well-defined rule that tells them what the code means they'll be happy. What do you think they'd want instead? No rule? A badly defined rule?
Super misleading.

Here's the actual stats pulled from the article:

* 83% of startups were all-male and got 93% of funding.

* 6% of startups were all-female and got 1.3% of funding.

* 11% of startups were mixed and got 5.7% of funding.

Still an imbalance but paints a very different picture. Clearly the industry needs to attract more women generally before you start crying inequity.

True, a lot of writing is just reacting - An emotional response.
It's a big mistake to assume that everyone is driven by logic and reason when, in fact, the majority of people's communication is driven by emotions and learned rhetoric; sometimes masquerading as logic and thought.

As an extreme case, I find that people who say things like "People who believe the earth is flat are idiots" are themselves not logical; they are driven purely by faith and group-think.
Aside from astronomers and certain other kinds of scientists, most people cannot say with 100% confidence that the earth is round.

This is because most people were taught this fact at a young age from a science textbook or from a teacher; they have no actual evidence to back it up; their foundation of knowledge in that area is therefore extremely weak and yet they're prepared to call doubters idiots based on consensus alone.

They ignore the fact that the popular consensus can be wrong and has been wrong many times in history.
People's failure to identify points of weaknesses in the foundation of their own knowledge is a sign that they are driven by emotions.

It was because every developer in the West was taught that inheritance based OOP was the one thing to rule them all.

And that unfortunate school of thought created the Java mythos that spread to many languages, not only PHP, eg JavaScript (everyone trying to write inheritance based OOP in a prototype based language).

Few years ago the mythos changed somewhat to every programming language should be functional.

Thus it is not a specific PHP problem, it is common problem of trend sensitivity in programming culture.

And the funny thing is that much of the critique against PHP, like in this thread, is in the form of "why isn’t PHP like the other programming languages?"

But agree PHP should go it’s own way, it has much to contribute to the world still and it feels like it has started to create its own path again.

Some VPN provider's claims were verified in court and thus it's known they don't keep logs, so the article's claims just fall apart:

https://www.techspot.com/news/82259-keeping-private-5-vpns-h...

Edit: Many coutries have mandatory data retention policies [1], so if you're from one of those countries it's virtually guaranteed that your internet usage logs for the last months/years are logged somewhere. On the otherhand, a VPN provider has a strong financial incentive to not log your data (because their repuatation has a high financial value) and in some cases it can be known that (at least at some point in the past) they weren't logging, so there is a very high probability that they are not logging now.

The article doesn't give the proportion of mixed and all-female teams, just of all male teams. To quote you "make an effort".
That's a different idea though.

Rather the whole point here is that when learning it's better to focus on quantity over quality AND by doing so that quality will naturally be better. The parent is looking for examples of this latter idea.

> This means that special interests in California need only present their cause through the lens of leftism and they will automatically find sympathetic candidates in the top two, no matter who those are.

The fact that no sane Republican candidates seem to exist in California is not the fault of the jungle primaries.

The lack of sane California Republicans is the fault of a Republican primary electorate that views things like "Actually running the government" as a mortal sin.

Lets see some California Republicans replace Nunes with a Republican with a couple brain cells to rub together and then we can talk about the faults in the jungle primary system.

Until then, you may want to start looking for faults by looking in the mirror.

It's like engineers think about research. I worked in both engineering and research, so I could perhaps elucidate the difference.

Basically if one idea out of a hundred major ones really takes off, that's considered a success for a researcher. We're talking one, maybe two real hits throughout the entire scientific career. Researchers are well aware that much of what they do and publish is of little consequence. And they have to make "empty promises" from time to time to continue getting funding from the easily distracted politicians and upper management. They also almost have to have lofty, aspirational goals to keep the motivation.

Basically 99% percent of work of a good, hard working researcher consists of going down the alleys to see if they are blind, which they nearly always are. But the remaining 1% often makes the whole thing worthwhile to all parties involved. The question is, can you pull off that 1% hail Mary or not.

The potential discoveries we're talking about in this case could upend industries, reshape the world economy, and bring about the post-scarcity future, at least when it comes to energy. If we're willing to strain credulity a little, they might even enable interstellar travel. Is that worth a few days of the Pentagon budget? To me, it is, as long as we maximize the chance of the aforementioned Hail Mary.

In contrast, an engineer that doesn't succeed with her ideas at least 50% of the time would quickly find herself out of a job, so by definition the amount of risk engineers take on is as little as possible.

But it's tightly integrated with the CPU itself. The VRM dos nothing without the CPU saying so. Whatever voltage it requests, the VRM will comply.

For a glorious short time with Haswell, the VRM was fully integrated onto the processor die. It led to increased heat, obviously, but if you properly cooled the processor, you could stop worrying about your VRM failing.

I would argue that all of that is already more or less the case with the central banking system as we have it now: negative interest rates, money only insured up to 100k per person in EU bank accounts, massive decrease in buying power (look at the price of real estate/gold/crypto expressed in EUR/USD over the past 10 years), Dutch citizens pay "capital tax" over any capital over some 30k EUR (literally: spend it or we tax you).

About the whitelists? Already the case. My bank account in Portugal just got frozen 2 days ago for trying to buy crypto through Coinbase (we're talking about less than 100 EUR transaction here). This involved transferring money to an Estonian account, which according to support is "a blacklisted country" (even though it's an EU member state and an attractive European country for tech related businesses). I tried transferring money from my other EU fintech bank accounts which worked perfectly fine and almost instantly (so the blacklist excuse is bs). I still can't access my funds in that account 2 days later. Computer says no. Support can't help. I'm strongly suspecting this has nothing to do with Estonia and everything to do with banks not liking crypto.

So for everybody who wonders what problems crypto currencies are solving? Well, there ya go...
I find it interesting that the paper focusses on Central Bank Digital Currencies and Global Stablecoins, but pretends not to see/prefers not to deal with the elephant in the room - Bitcoin. If anything is a candidate for a potential Reserve Currency, BTC is it, imho.

Deep in the footnotes comes the contorted logic,"According to the IMF Treatment of Crypto Assets in Macroeconomic Statistics, crypto assets such as Bitcoin do not
meet the definition of a financial asset—and hence currency—in macroeconomic statistics." and presumably that's what lets them off the hook, nevertheless, the ONE payment-rail that BTC fits perfectly is precisely that of international settlements between Central Banks/countries - such settlements typically involve the large-scale transfer of assets, they're not especially time-sensitive, and the transfer cost is inconsequential (and in the case of BTC negligible against the values transferred).

So I'm still left wondering: Why the aversion?

Fear? Lack of control by recognised "authorities"? Their argument that it's "too volatile" is largely untrue over the past year or two, with Bitcoin showing no greater volatility than any of the world's fiat currencies, so I doubt that's the factor at play.
