Reasoning is that coal kills more every day. As someone else said under one of the parent comments, even hydro kills more than nuclear. Dams have wiped out whole regions.

>Historical fact is determined ...

Original article talks about MEANINGS of pwd.
To determine meaning YOU imply that MEANING is defined ONLY by looking for historical fact, but it is how YOU interpret it. We can look for historical fact and find out that most of the commands literally printed on PAPER.

So IF we talk about MEANINGs, we can take into account historical fact but there is no much use for it, if it doesn't represent the MEANING!

There are no flaws in my logic. There are flows in your suggestion that we should discuss ONLY historical fact to determine MEANING.

>while the grandparent argument only requires that multiple readings be possible

while it does say about multiple readings possible,
it uses caps used only in "PRINT" word. I merely pointed out to that imbalance by providing alternative, to ballance it back.

Then I went further and argued that multiple readings are inappropriate there, because it is naive to put the same weight to the words. Some words are ESSENTIAL and some can be used for almost any command in unix/linux. Even grandparent argument discarded manual as source. and we simply -do-not-know- historical fact, So I CAN use manual as source of interpretations in search for !MEANING! not historical fact, which is absent and not very useful even if it will be determined.

convinced ?
But if it’s already been observed in other conditions (wet:dry cycles) why not just focus on those.
To give a more concrete example, we have a single Angular app. The app has two areas, one where the user can search for records using free text while another where the user can create or update records. Our source of truth is a Postgres database where all updates and inserts are sent using a microservice. The data flows from Postgres to Elasticsearch using SQS in AWS. The Angular app then queries Elasticsearch using a different microservice. So essentially our command domain model is separate from our query domain model.
U2F is freaking awesome. It's rare to have something which is both high security and not a pain to use.

I just wish the banking and financial industry would get onboard. For customer accounts, they are mostly using SMS, but some of them are still using personal info question (e.g. what was your first pets name) as a second factor which is horrible.
They've cloned them. They are in too perfect a condition to be recycled.
Lost jobs and businesses means less tax revenue and a higher benefits bill.

So charge $50 more per laptop and make $30 more profit while not producing 8 GB junk that'll be e-waste in a few years because that's barely enough RAM to run an average browser session anymore.
cqrs is great, but you need to emit changes in your system in consumable way in order for cqrs to work since it is based on reaction to these changes and building the "views" from them. not fun to implement, a lot of code is needed, especially if you are doing event sourcing and not just some simple event logging. but it is VERY powerful design, in conjunction with event sourcing. it essentially removes strict schema from your system and you can have fluid data storage and perform various analytical tasks with past data and not being locked only to current data. very powerful! it is a dream to have but a pain to implement.
For sure, but in a world where you have near-infinite CPU power, ram, and performance per watt, the difference would not be noticeable between the two. I really think that the gains made in performance have enabled people to be far more okay with Electron. 6-10 years ago VSCode would have been seen as a non-option, now it's just 'bloated' compared to editors like Nova.
I agree with most of your points.

We also went down this path (CQRS + ES) a few years ago at my old company. Implementing it was fun, but it did add quite some complexity. Granted, it was very scalable.

Interestingly enough we used it for an enterprise messaging app, although I left for other things before it was released. I wonder how that codes looks today.

That project hasn't been updated in 6 years
This is the third time I read this comment and lightly smiled. Wasn't until now that it occurred to me that "Apple Wheel" might actually be a real product. Lo and behold, it's 4 cart wheels that retails for $699, I'm not even joking. https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MX572ZM/A/apple-mac-pro-w...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this just seems like using the opentelemetry library in node to send query info in a span. This doesn't seem like a full PostgreSQL integration?
3% is good but fairly common conversion rate for an ad. Not really groundbreaking nor newsworthy.

But why it's on HN then? The answer - you are the product and HN is a marketplace. This makes HN kind of spoiled place to be at, as it amplifies the illusion of "good things" you "must have" or "participate in".

I really miss the golden era of BYTE magazine in the 80s. That was a classy act. But what we have now is a noisy reactor, where nearly everything is worthless but fuels illusion and false hopes. We give in without even considering an evident fact that we are being manipulated for cheap.

Yes, I may sound too dark, but then let's not call HN "a community". This a commercial enterprise with its own interests under the hood. Not the neutral place for intellectual discussions as it tries to appear.
In fact fair few parts of the exclusion zone are under discussion to be reopened very soon, and Chernobyl is quite habitable for some definition of habitable. Thousands of people stay and live there (decontamination workers, and a big tourist trade), though they are only allowed to stay three months at a time.
They are exposed to less radiation than an airline pilot or a stewardess receives in the course of their job -- so "habitable" is relative.
Yeah that was my one element of constructive feedback. The flashing literally made my eyes uncomfortable, to the point that I don't really want to explore too much.
Well, that's the world you're living in. What are you going to do about it?
So, 1500nm is infrared range and 40W quite serious output I guess at the close range can be a quite dangerous...

From what I understand BSD has a feature which verifies calling address of syscall and blocks if it doesn't comes from libc thus achieving similar result to your suggestion with randomization.
I think you are all cunts. I would say this to your face.
You are aware that just because the true cost is obfuscated by the cell payment plan that doesn't mean you aren't paying for it in exactly the same way as the ipad pro, which you could also buy on a finance plan. There is no such thing as "free" or "almost free", you are paying for it.
Does it matter? I'm no theologian but if the robots take over, isn't that God's will? I'd rather put my faith (and money) in ethics research and really hope that we gradually become sentient robots (by replacing parts of ourselves) instead of ending up in a Terminator-style war with AI.
Its pretty obvious that if corporate is coming downstairs with cameras, they are going to make it look tidy.
You need to guarantee a minimum level of daily production because even if an EV can charge at different times of the day it needs to be charged every day. This is in addition to all the other electricity needs.

In the UK solar is not that great because of the gloomy winters (when heating demand is at its peak, and the UK wants to also move away from gas central heating...).

Best bets, IMO are tides and offshore wind. But wind can also be quite variable.

If you add all of this up "just over provision" becomes unrealistic. There needs to be extensive storage capacity but I don't think we're quite there yet. Certainly batteries do not seem a very environmentally friendly option. Even this may bot solve the problem.

All in all I think renewables can minimise the need for nuclear power but cannot replace it, at least for now.
I did one of the phone polls about 15 years ago, and after about 30 minutes of questions I was really tired of the whole thing. But the last stroke is when instead of asking my opinions about issues/etc they started asking the personal questions (presumably to categorize me race, income/etc) I told them I was done answering questions and refused to answer anything that wasn't something you could conclude by looking at me on the street. Now I just say "no" and hang up.

And thats probably a big problem for them too, I had a few friends in HS who worked as pollsters at the local mall, they actually paid people in gift certificates and the like for the hour they took up. It was all really upfront, "Hi, would you like a $10 gift card for an hour of your time answering questions?". IIRC it was 100% issue questions too, the age/race/etc questions were all later filled out by the pollster from what they saw rather than being questions on the form.

So, yah, I'm guessing its a lot cheaper to run phone polls than pay people in the mall to give out gift cards.
Mattermost looks to boost DevOps collaboration with cloud platform
That’s understandable. I also understand why people want to make a side income. For all the hard work and small pay checks in the beginning, it’s worth it to have a business in the end. There is no guarantee though and I think putting in work into something with no pay and no guarantee of success is just not compatible with most people. It require some degree of craziness!
> The problem is as a “normal user” you can’t go to your ‘tech friend’ and get a straight answer

Uh, it's 3 options.

Small size, best camera option, remaining option.

I didn't know this - I just went to Apple's website, clicked iPhone and it has a single page that presents all this very clearly.

So um, yeah. This is by the way how I do 'tech advice' to anyone who ever needs it - I open google, I type in the question and the first link has the answer 95% of the time.

Phones haven't been in 'gotta have it' category since iPhone 6 when they released a bigger size that a lot of people wanted. Since then, it has been 'better camera' yearly releases, oh and 'better chip', as if anyone needs a supercomputer to browse Instagram.

I still use Facebook, barely. But only the messenger app and even that is annoying. I keep getting messages about some girl wanting to hook up in my hometown of ${VPN_LOCATION} or that Biden is trying to light the country on fire or something.

I wish I could quit it, but it's how I keep in touch with my family. It's just such a shame that it's turned into such a flaming pile.
Yep! For a modern day example, there's a famous conspiracy [1] the Champions League draw, which involves pulling balls from a bin, that certain balls are warmed or cooled so that the ball-chooser knows to draw them in a certain round.

They could rid themselves of this conspiracy by randomly selecting the ball-drawer (instead of using a paid random ex-footballer), but they don't. :)

No, the issues are different, please read the article. R also runs fine on ARM64 linux. But macOS is not linux, as mentioned in the article it has a different ABI and no free Fortran 90 compiler is available yet.

The other issue is that R distinguishes between NA values and NaN values (NumPy doesn't), which are propagated differently on ARM64.
This "15 crops" trope is widespread, but it's really hard to find a list of what those exactly are. The Wikipedia article mentions 15 but only lists the top 10. Everyone else probably just copied the "fact" from Wikipedia, like a 4th grade research paper, no sources listed anywhere.

Found it here... http://ebrary.ifpri.org/utils/getfile/collection/p15738coll2...

List is these, in order of value of trade flow...

Coconut
Groundnut

You wanna get real with that? Look up the Bill Thomas Cheetah, or the Ferrari 250 GTO. Bodies may/may not be available. Actually, until a couple of years ago you could buy a 1970 Dodge Challenger body and a 1951-3 Chevrolet Pickup body, new reproduction.
Show HN: Wasp (Alpha) is out – DSL for building web apps with React/Node/Prisma
Hi HN! Together with my brother I've been developing Wasp - a language for building web apps with as little boilerplate as possible. It is open-source and integrates with React/Node.js/Prisma. We just released Alpha and are looking for testers and contributors.

Thanks for any feedback and comments!
We did, although we didn't experience great incarnations. The Polish-Lithuanian Empire had some aspirations along those lines, but was dominated by Poland.

Most of the Slavic cultures are culturally closer to each other than to Western Europe, although Poland has really (and rather unfortunately) westernizing since the fall of the Berlin Wall, the rise of the EU, etc. Polish culture is being replaced by Germanic culture, which is quite sad to see.

A modern pan-slavic incarnation would likely look like the USA, the EU, or some of the partnerships of African countries, where there is free trade and some degree of free travel. I think prerequisite to that would be to fix some of the governance issues in Slavic countries, though. Right now, the concern would be that any such partnership would be bullied around by Putin.
Dont think that's fair. PPC is very old. An extra 5 years of OS updates that support intel would be acceptable to me.
If I recall correctly, C and C++ allow some types of pointer aliasing that fortran forbids. If you're reading from one buffer and writing to another, those buffers can overlap in C or C++, but can't in fortran, so a fortran compiler is allowed more leeway with the way instructions are ordered (and maybe elided? Not sure). In compute-intensive workloads, every little bit helps.
Half of USA market is far from "small piece".
Of course he considered it a theory.[1] It was a new idea. He had a pile of evidence for it (yes, empirical evidence) but it still needed to be looked at by other scientists and the evidence assessed.

I don't know what you mean by "not empirical", but if you mean that Darwin just wrote "hey, here's a cool idea" and didn't have empirical evidence for it then you're just flatly wrong. If you mean that now we don't have empirical evidence for it then either you've been terribly deceived by others or you're lying. (Probably the former. My condolences.)

Something can be a theory and also factual. And there can be a theory of something that is a fact. If you think "X is a theory!" is some sort of refutation of people who regard X as true, then you are 100% wrong about that.

The usual progression goes like this. Someone comes up with a theory (in the vernacular sense). Say, Darwin's theory of how living things got to be the way they are. Some theories are more or less correct from the outset. Some are just plain wrong. Most are somewhere in between. If the theory seems worth taking seriously, other people try to work out its consequences in more detail, and go looking for evidence for or against it, and refine the details. When the theory is all wrong, it will hopefully get knocked down as this happens. (Examples: "cold fusion", Lamarckian "inheritence of acquired characteristics".) When the theory is basically right, the wrong bits will get corrected (e.g., Darwin expected inheritance to be a sort of "mixing" process, which isn't really right and produces some wrong intuitions) and new ideas will be brought in (e.g., Darwin didn't know about genes), and as repeated investigation doesn't refute the underlying ideas it becomes increasingly implausible to reject them.

Today's understanding of evolution isn't identical to Darwin's. He made some mistakes and some wrong guesses and there was a lot he didn't know. But we have a lot more evidence than Darwin did that populations of living things evolve over time, that a major cause of the change they undergo is natural selection, that even very different-looking living things have common ancestors, etc.

Darwin had a "theory" in the vernacular sense: an idea that seemed to explain a lot of things and might or might not turn out to be right. It was a good enough idea that scientists after Darwin put a lot of effort into investigating and refining it. We now have a "theory" in the "grand scientific edifice" sense, and while details will continue -- ahahaha -- evolving, there's little scope for reasonable people aware of the evidence to doubt that its central ideas are facts.

[1] Even in the "vernacular" sense. It's true that sometimes "theory" means "grand scientific edifice, well evidenced and elaborated with mathematical sophistication", but it doesn't always, and when Darwin called evolution by natural selection a "theory" he didn't mean that.
Without guidance of some sort, looking it up can be a challenge because you may not know what to search for and vetting new information for quality is its own problem too.

A child on the internet today has to contend with deliberate science misinformation that tries very hard to look valid and authoritative (flat earthers, antivaxxers). This stuff is also likely to intersect with entertainment venues like YouTube and plant their ideas first where you then have to unteach the nonsense just to begin. Even as a science literate adult, navigating this with my children is hard because it brings difficult topics to the table well ahead of their age appropriate academic abilities traditionally prepare them for (religious motivations, philosophy, logic, history, etc).
Scientists put a lot of effort in to organizing what we know. Biologists and chemists invest heavily in web databases, and professors love to write books. How do you know that not enough effort is being put in to organization?
Based on the article I don't think those are the problem. I think the new Apple silicon is distinct enough that it needs a bit of porting effort to get a Fortran compiler running, along with the issue of quirks in handling NaN payloads and some other (seemingly rather minor) differences.

I don’t like the devaluation of the word observability. A chart like this used to be called something like ‘tools to monitor and understand postgres’.
Observability is the ability to derive the internal state of a system from the outside. Usually done through traces.

It would be great if Postgres could emit a trace per query, showing in real-time which internal components were hit by this query. A sort of continuous query explain service.

Combine these traces to database clients and other front end services and you’ll be able to point to the front end service version which causes cache misses deep inside postgres.
I don’t get it. The bullet points in your screenshot seemed factual to me. Which part of it felt like victim blaming to you?

Just to be clear, because it's non-obvious, Arch Linux has a single patch (not stored in .patch file however), but all things considered it's very simple.

This likely is needed for the package to build to begin with.
