But do we need a 'documentary' to tell us this is wrong? I would guess that most individuals would agree it's immoral regardless of where you are on the political spectrum albeit for possibly different reasons.

This is like making a movie about why dog fighting is bad and having a movie poster depicting dog fighting in a glamorous light but then having to watch the movie to show that's it's a problem. This is even worse though because children are more easily influenced by what is culturally acceptable. I know the whole 'save the children' is overused now but this is actually a situation where children really should be protected, and I as parent shouldn't have them assaulted by this.

I agree that some libraries do this but in general Plotly does not: we mostly visualize the data given, and lots of users wish we would onboard more transformation/aggregation/processing :)
People keep saying that the polls were wrong, but I'm just not seeing anyone supporting that assertion with actual evidence.

The results seem like they are very much in line with what 538 predicted based on the polls.

>> The rules are simple: Drivers start in Manhattan [...] and finish [..] in Redondo Beach, California. What happens in between is up to them.

There are plenty of other rules. Some seem obvious, others less so.

(1) It has to be a single car, not a relay. This means you cannot just hop between prepped/fueled cars. No pony express runs.

(2) It has to be "driven". No packing the car into an aircraft. No aircraft/car transformers. No putting your tesla on a rocket.

(3) It has to be unescorted, at least not be government officials. Blocking/support cars maybe, but no cops escorting you through traffic.

(4) It has to be on public roads. No paying to have roads shut. With today's crop of billionaires, closing large sections of highway to "film a movie stunt" is an option.

Documenting that you have abided by these rules, that you haven't used two identical cars and flown the driver, means you basically must produce video footage. Video footage means you have documented your actions and any number of police agencies could arrest you on the spot.
I have the same feelings about Scala. It was fun to write Scala code and it was inspiring, but the tooling was terrible and there were way too many possibilities to express the same thing. Scalaz was essentially a language in a language that had nothing todo with "normal" Scala.

Now I'm using Kotlin. While a miss a more advanced Scala feature from time to time, I feel more productive because I don't have to think so much about the language itself. And Kotlin is much easier to introduce, plus the tooling is way better.
> "we're not going to stop being able to produce enough food to feed everyone in the US"

The Great Depression? Hyperinflation in the Weimar Republic? I'm sure there are modern examples as well. There may be a plentitude of food and other products but if the societal and economic structures that process it and get it to where it needs to be collapse, that food might as well be on the far side of the moon.

And even producing that food is questionable. Modern production is reliant on mechanical and electronic systems nowadays, even farming. Without replacement parts and consumable supplies, everything rapidly grinds to a halt. We saw an example of this in the recent COVID-19 shortages; lack of packaging and other consumables from overseas blocked domestic production of products even when the actual content of the product was still available.

Everything is interlinked today. Everything. Watch episode one of James Burke's excellent documentary "Connections" to get an idea of what occurs when that breaks down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XetplHcM7aQ
> The current work allows for optical switches that take up much less space than previous attempts. This advance opens the way for direct on-chip integration as well as super-resolution imaging.

Nanoseconds are still infinitely slower than "instant" that you can get with destructive interference. That thing is no faster than a modern fet.
Either. I am talking about heat pumps. The efficiency formula is exactly the same. The difference is that ground water stays at a consistent 12-15 degrees C IIRC. That is close to what we as humans like to live in, so the efficiency is relatively high heat round. In the meantime air temperature fluctuates by quite a bit. The main drawback of using ground water as your heat source/sink is that it is expensive and costly to maintain relative to a resistive coil with electricity running through it.
The problem with intel naming is comparing products across lines is hard. iX, Pentium, and Celeron are not on the same thousands, so it's hard to tell which are the same core design. Hiding Atom chips in the same lineup is extra confusing.

Of course, since Intel is pretty much stalled for the last few years, it's a little easier now.
A potential advantage of using just a CLI would be that you could use SSH authentication, with public key cryptography. It would be much more secure, especially for a VPS provider, where if your SSH key gets cracked it's game over anyway, so that the password is only an additional security risk.
Spacemacs is overly complicated. Try Doom, or just start with vanilla Emacs, and add Evil.
Just to get your argument straight: nothing comes close to the level of utility and usability of StandardML, Ocaml and Haskell?

So why haven’t aren’t those languages commonly used?

The simple answer is that there’s a lot more to a language than its type system. Go is popular because it’s simple. Throwing generics on the language without a lot of deep thought and time risks adding marginal utility while destroying a large amount of the core simplicity. While I too want generics, I understand that the caution and skepticism of the core team is not “Hubris and NIH”.
I don't understand why someone would use Python instead of say using Ruby. I think right now it is a matter of "synergy" given that Pandas, Torch and all those libraries are more tailored for Python, but as a scripting language Ruby is just so much easier, elegant and intuitive [ len(something) vs something.length ]
I dunno what "statistically significant" would mean in this context, but people have been doing it since the 1930s, though most of the runs have been in the last fifty years. they claim that no bystanders have been injured in the history of the run, and I can't find any evidence to the contrary. I don't think it's a good idea to go from one US coast to the other as fast as possible, but the pearl-clutching is a bit much.
Didn't have time to listen to the whole thing yet, but from what I gathered it's two things: the lower 64bits of the 128bit addresses doesn't count (due to privacy), and that carrier-grade NAT might go much further than what some people think.

If all you want to do is to watch YouTube and check out Instagram, and Google and Facebook have servers in a rack "nearby" (in the network sense) ala what Netflix does, then you don't need a globally unique IP to talk to them.

This is not the right criterion to evaluate a film's intent.

Action movies spend most of their screen time showing killing. Horror movies contain extended torture scenes. Gaspar Noé's "Irreversible" has a 10-minute extremely realistic rape scene, but it would be absurd to claim that it's a pro-rape film.

1) If every block includes source code for an arbitrary hashing algorithm, do you expect arbitrary nodes to run arbitrary code to synchronise with your block? How do you know if some block provider's hashing algorithm terminates? How does your blockchain become trustless if hashing involves arbitrary code execution?

2) An essential property of hashing algorithm is uniform distribution. Future block hashes depend on past block hashes. In PoW this implies compute difficulty scales dynamically. If a block provider gets to choose their hashing algorithm arbitrarily, they could pick a non-uniform hashing algorithm that is easy for themselves and hard for others. In PoS this often affects who gets picked as the next block provider; having control over the hashing function in either case means you can pick yourself again.

If your claim is to let market forces pick the most trusted hashing algorithms, why not just settle on a fixed-but-extensible list of hashing algorithms that are known to work well today?

Making governance a part of the protocol is all the hype.

But there has to exist a protocol with boundaries.

Otherwise, your blockchain is just the internet.

The novelty was in selling individual licenses of operating systems rather than bundling them only with hardware. Computers has OSes, and of course they were bought and sold among companies, but they were included with computer purchases.

So while IBM licensed with Microsoft to provide the OS (and MS just bought DOS from someone else), Microsoft sold the same OS to lots of others as well. And even as retail for upgrades and changes that didn’t come from the hardware vendor.

This is the same universe we’re all in.

A few quick takeaways on this-

1 - the DOJ is targeting a product/feature that Plaid hasn't even released: payment processing. That appears to be the reason other fintechs like Stripe/PayPal opposed the deal. Very odd to see this lawsuit filed on the potential for a future product vs. an existing product Plaid offers already. Not a lawyer but wonder what the precedence for this is.

2 - DOJ is targeting Visa as a monopoly in the online debit transaction space. They don't see them as a Visa-Mastercard duopoly. Interesting to compare the DOJ's decision to call Visa a monopoly & block the acquisition vs. a full on monopoly lawsuit for Google.

3 - Wonder what implications this will have on exits for other fintech firms, and startups generally. Definitely makes going public more attractive if the government is signaling that they're not opposed to putting up significant blocks to prevent acquisitions. Delaying an acquisition like this really will spook employees with stock options & VCs
The usage model they're targeting is trucks that return to a depot overnight. Local delivery and drayage routes have ample time to charge.

Honestly one of the bigger issues is upgrading the electrical service at the depots to support the chargers. I worked on a prototype EV truck, and they had to software-limit the charger when first installed, because running flat-out it could draw more power than the entire rest of the prototype facility. They had to get the utility out to drop a new transformer before they could unleash the charger's full power.

The power you buy in a few gallons of diesel fuel is simply staggering.

Thank you for your comment. I mostly wrote this article as a way to get an idea out of my head rather than present it as a thesis on the topic. I am not a philosopher, but a physicist by profession, so I apologize for my lack of correct terminology to explain the topic correctly.

I do enjoy reading philosophy but there is very little in terms of "philosophy of programming" in order to have a common language to talk about. I could either go full mathematical and most people will not know what I am talking about, or go full example based, but then lose the essence of the problem.

What I wanted to say is that ownership semantics can only deal with "linear" problems whilst most problems are "non-linear" in nature. And that designing an entire language around this idea to ensure "safety", especially without it being "proven" in a smaller language, is/was very risky and dodgy.

I also wanted to explain the mentality that many (not all) people have with regards to ownership semantics and how it regards to a certain concept of "agency", and how it is related (not the same) as the OOP mentality.

P.S. The original commenter is confused about my views, and made mistakes about what I stated. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24999902
I pretty much agree with you, but the stronger counter-argument would be that having those things makes recruiting a lot easier.

Top-talent engineers are going to be a lot more reticent to join a startup where the systems are constantly on-fire and held together by duct tape. The first few hires set the standards and corporate culture, so this can have a real impact on the company's long-term viability.
> GUIs aren't scriptable

That's the point! In my team in Amazon, a candidate unfamiliar (or hostile to) CLI would be a strong no hire.
So much this. At a previous company (Go/Python/Ruby), we used gRPC almost exclusively, and the experience was pretty good.

We're just now hitting a growth point where we need stronger contracts between our services and unfortunately really can't recommend gRPC as the primary language used is TypeScript.

We've spiked on our own protoc plugin (based on protoc-gen-star) and runtime lib (extending the google libs), but it's slow going and more likely to become tech debt than picking something off the shelf like open-api.
Similar to the Chase issue being discussed.

Even more than yield issues I think that letting AMD better pool engineering effort between their desktop and server parts might have been really important. AMD is a smaller company than Intel and has to be clever about economizing.

This already exists in the inverse; LSP.
In the future, which again, is what we are talking about when we are talking about the Paris Accords, gas will serve as a backup source for extended wind droughts.

However, we will need to provide some subsidies to keep these gas plants around, because within a decade it will not be economical to operate them unless markets are redesigned to properly compensate combined cycle gas turbines that operate at <25% capacity factor.
Sure, but that doesn’t change the point I don’t think. By and large, regardless of the existence of what you’re saying, GUIs lead to greater discoverability.
It will probably fall. Unlick stocks, Bitcoin is purely a function of supply an demand, with no intrinsic value. It is not like Amazon stock gains, which hold. Commodities always have a tendency of giving up gains and lagging stocks, because no shareholder equity can be generated and the supply is always increasing.

Personally, I've never found the Go spec to be too ambiguous, and it's always answered my questions and in an easy and clear way. I'm a fan!

For example, what does the following C# code print?

UInt32 x = 1;
UInt32 s = x >> 32;
Console.WriteLine("" + s);

How about the following Go code?

var x uint32 = 1
var s uint32 = x >> 32
fmt.Println(s)

I can easily answer the question for Go looking at the Go spec, but I cannot seem to find anywhere documented in the C# spec its (more surprising) behavior.
To my eye, it looks like there is a plausible argument that BTC price innovations have a positive loading on Fed balance sheet growth.

Nice! This seems to fit my learning style well. I prefer to understand why something matters, than progressively probe backwards into the theory.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. Zen2/3 already have 32MB L3 SRAM on each chiplet. And we know TSMC 5nm is more expensive than 7nm.

Not as clear-cut on wasting space. Maybe those chips had a defective GPU area and why disabled - would be good to get clarity upon that.

The other aspect is that they will act as a heat spreader at the die level, so whilst not best use of space - given all the factors - not something could easily dismiss and better a waste of space than a waste of a chip who's only crime was to have a non-functioning GPU upon it.
> I’d be interested to see experimentation with ownership semantics in languages with higher-level memory models (which broadly means GC languages).

Haskell might give a few hints how well this works. [1]

> Here’s the thing, though: it’s not just about finding a way to cope with the constraints it imposes; it’s also about thriving within the constraints it imposes, because it stops you from doing problematic things and guides you in the path of better designs much of the time (though non-linearity can definitely be a problem; it’s not all buttercups and daisies).

Oh yes, and how nice it is to have these constraints verified by the compiler. Perhaps it's this kind of assumption, that less constraints give you more power, without realizing that also the responsibility increases, and at a certain point the complexity overburdens the human mind.

Different software domains need different constraints, so the question
might be where the sweet spot between languages with different constraints
and a language with programmable constraints (aka dependent types) lies.

I like this tool a lot. As someone who learned modelling in Autodesk Inventor then had to re-learn in Maya, a tool like this could help to make the transition from a hard, grid based system to something much more artistic and flexible.
That name doesn't mean much. The democratic party is a mix of center-right and socially progressive politicians, with a small fringe leaning to the left. You don't see Pelosi, Hillary, Biden, Obama, etc actually talking seriously about reducing the influence of money on politics, or reigning in presidential abuses of power. They don't like trump, but they want all the same power when they're in office.

To be specific, it's the lack of typing that makes large code bases in Python, Ruby, and especially JavaScript a huge pain compared to Java. It makes debugging much more difficult. Thankfully this is being fixed with stuff like Typescript and similar projects for both Python and Ruby.

Some people may argue, "but documentation would make this an non-issue". Guarantees built-in to the platform itself are more reliable than human aspirations, or automatic memory management as a feature wouldn't have gotten popular.
