It very well may be over hyped but with the breakdown of Dennard scaling[1] the gains we've seen in CPUs has been pretty minor generation to generation.

I think that could also be the reason it is getting so hyped, it is a tangible improvement over other CPUs. 50% more battery life, better performance in some case, what's the last CPU generation we saw such gains? Probably pretty far back to when Dennard sclaing was still a thing?

This exactly, they are just trying to get their foot in the door in literally any idea someone else is already pursuing so that if it starts to make money they can start to put the juice on the engineering for that and take their market share.

CPython has no compilation step. It reads source code and generates bytecode at runtime; this bytecode is cached inside `pyc` files. The bytecode is interpreted.

Erlang (pre-JIT) has a compilation step. The compiler reads the source code and generates bytecode files (.beam). The runtime interprets this bytecode; it doesn't care about the original source.

Erlang (with JIT) has the same compilation process, but at runtime, it also converts the bytecode to machine code in memory. Then it executes that code, which removes the interpretation overhead.

Of course, maybe you are experiencing a different issue that also leaks memory, but Dan confirmed 1Password was not causing his problem, just 1Blocker. https://twitter.com/hondanhon/status/1329471604649205760?s=2...

The 1Blocker extension can be disabled as a temporary fix, and crucially, the ad blocking functionality does _not_ have to be disabled.

https://twitter.com/1blockerapp/status/1329744152150626304?s...

In the meantime, disabling the 1Blocker Button extension in Safari > Preferences > Extensions and restarting Safari fixes it. It won't affect how our app blocks intrusive content in Safari since 1Blocker Button only provides quick actions to the main app.

Battery / data savings ?
Its a nice appeal to simplicity to say nuclear is just 'heating water and spinning a turbine', I could also say the sun is a very large carbon-free maintenance-free opex-free reactor in the sky and we just need to design a secondary stage of the power plant to transform the energy to electricity.
And instead of pistons OR turbines, we can use a new type of machine specifically built for this purpose aka renewable energy technologies.

The reality is it doesn't matter how you word it or what you think should be simpler. Its what the economy can actually build, and including risk, buying solar panels which have no moving parts and last for decades are currently the more efficient way to add a watt to the grid.

Your "blunt" assertion where you predict the capacity of the grid to accomodate renewables and the quantity of battery storage and the feasibility of every potential upcoming storage technology probably requires a few sources to be taken seriously as well.

> There's some confusion in this question. A log normal distribution is proof enough that multiplication exists.

Ha-ha. Maybe it's a good reason to forge the evidence. However, it doesn't mean you can't forge an additive law here!

In 3 you can add value of house to the value of car instead of "multiplying" them. In 7 you can add values "cent by cent". "Multiplicative cycle" in 5 is a real conspiracy theory. Is there the same thing for "cow's milk"? Could you increase milk yield with the same "multiplicative cycle"?

According to this logic bank interests for credits with "simple interest" should have a normal distribution and those with "compound interest" should have a log-normal one!

I can give you more simple criteria for all cases above:

1) "The length of comments" can't be negative

2) "Users' dwell time" can't be negative

3) income can't be negative

4) cow's don't suck milk from farmers

5) Law of Gravity works for rainfalls

6) Size rainfall droplets can't be negative

7) Payer is the one who pays

8) "Latency" and "delay" for nodes can't be negative too. It's very likely that it has a log-normal distribution as many other sort of delay.

We share with you our app, Komorabi, a tool for bitesize volunteering and charitable acts, designed to work around your routine. Let’s make kindness part of our daily routine.
Nice. Chicken is healthy. I was going to raise rabbits due to their ability to produce more protein than a cow (per year). If there is a document that details how I can safely grow chicken or rabbit cells myself, then I won't need to raise animals. My goal being to not depend on businesses. a.k.a. homesteading. I am open to creating my own home lab.
Great question.

The difference is huge, for starters this method uses a slow, cold, and mostly anaerobic environment, the conditions mycelium enjoy.

Trying to use a hot compost methods would require epic amounts of nitrogen feedstock for the bacteria to run the process.

This is also faster and requires less human input, no need to turn or aerate the pile, no need to carefully monitor the balance the nitrogen to carbon ratios throughout the process.

The change in chips I show in the video was 8 months. Leaving the chips for longer in the ditch/trench will yeild better results, I plan to leave this latest batch for a couple years to really let the mycelium break down the materials.

A portion of aged fungi composted material can be added to a hot compost pile to let the bacteria take over.

Fungi dominant soils are better for food forests and more stable than bacteria dominate soils.

I typically use bacteria dominated soils for kitchen gardens.

It's all inputs and outputs at the end of the day and simply dropping material into specific conditions can yeild different material outputs. It so much fun to think in terms of systems. I fell in love with computers and networks for this reason. Natural systems are even more impressive to me.

Gardening, food production, and nature is all about inputs and outputs over the course of days, months, and years. It's a much slower feedback loop to programming, but a feedback loop nonetheless.

Thank you for the question.

I am no lawyer, but yes, it is basically about "everything you say can be held against you".

That is also the reason you shouldn't just answer any questions from the police, just cooperate otherwise and let your lawyer handle the rest.

Judges should be impartial, but if a defamation suit would follow where the accused tried the court of public opinion to handle the issue, it might be detrimental.

I guess the same pattern of though is true for employers.

The big appeal for me is that Lisp is just weird enough to be fun, and dynamic enough to be expressive with rapid prototyping, but also has mechanisms to write more-structured programs and has quite a lot of batteries included, even if they are somewhat oddball or not necessarily portable across implementations.

> When debugging issues —sometimes caused by “heisenbugs”

IME "Heisenbugs" are specifically bugs whose behavior changes when you attach a debugger (or other instrumentation). It's a joking reference to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics. The more you try to measure one property of the system, the less you can know about some other related property. They're usually race conditions or memory corruption where the instrumentation disrupts the timing or order of operations just enough to make the bug go away.
Yes, it's called "horizontal aggression" or "lateral aggression".

Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future

To be honest I'm halfway through the book and a bit disappointed. I expected a lot while reading all the reviews on Amazon and even here on HN.

The book is good and give some few insights, but I'm still waiting for an "aha" moment or "wow this is something I didn't know".

I don't want to go into details to not spoil it for everyone who wants to read it, but it seem like an average book about startups so far.

I may be wrong and the other half of the book is more interesting.

I wonder how many of the currently accepted trade-offs are actually false.

At low levels it's kind of easy to prove, like you can store either more or bigger packages in a truck but not both. But the higher you go, the farther from physics, the more difficult it becomes to know if you're making decisions on what is essentially a flaky trade-off.
What if a requirement was made for producers of products to handle the disposal of their packaging? I have no idea how much of a financial burden it would be but that could go far to help reduce waste.
The problem we are beginning to see is the unwillingness, chaos, and confusion on how exactly to enforce GDPR. This is concerning; no repercussions will eventually lead to where we were before.
Yeah totally! I have done a couple different LTREE label columns on the same table before but that was for separating named entity recognition from other things, so still just different kinds of class membership (e.g. people, places, things).

It is possible to join these across tables, and therefore treat the matching nodes as having the same meaning for classification. However, it doesn't make sense to concatenate trees with different roots because it would just look like regular nesting.

Even if I make it clear at the column level like resource_table.node_label::ltree and predicate_table.edge_label::ltree, there would still be no obvious way to parse where in the forest we traverse over nodes and edges, since they all look and function the same.

I feel like this calls for a well thought-out naming convention using the only thing LTREE allows, alphanumeric and underscore characters. Something like root0.__node__name0.__edge__name0.__node__name1. This "merged" forest could be a "projection" within queries/views.

I recently gave it a try and it generally feels nice starting out, but I started running into rough edges pretty quickly, enough that I don't think I would want to build a large app using it. Main complaint is how it handles styles, it does not allow you to apply styles to the edge of a component without doing one of several workarounds, all of which have downsides. Means it's very hard to create a set of generic styled components and then apply layout to them using a parent, which makes it a bit of a pain to reuse things, which is kinda the point of component based libraries.

I also get the feeling that the Svelte maintainers do not particularly care what the community wants and are building what they want, which is totally cool, but unfortunately I disagree with a lot of their choices so I guess it's not for me.
