Yes. There are some deep insights in this exposition. The irony is (in my opinion) APL is the worst Array/Matrix based programming language. In fairness it was also the first, but compared to Matlab or Julia it is not as expressive and feels much harder to use.
For instance: I have no proof that there are PR departments of public health organizations and stock-market listed companies who are actively suppressing negative information on vaccines (contents, adverse effects, low-but-sufficient efficiency).

I think it is highly likely that there are economic, panic-management or public health incentives to against dangerous, yet partly true, ideas, and that big pharma and CDC could be conspiring to manage and control this information and what opinions I form. That, well-intentioned, Google and Youtube and Facebook and Twitter and WHO and some other elites sat in a secret meeting room, and wrote the playbook on how to deal with people proposing multi-vatimins as a cure, or even as a help for improving immune system. That such people are banned (or even arrested if they have medical authority) for things that in a normal situation people would have a right not to mistreated as such.

You have no proof that big pharma does not conspire to suppress half-measures and inconvenient situations (people refusing to mask up until vaccine is released). But what makes you think that? You looked at the history of big pharma, at the history of capitalism, at the history of public health controversies and attempts from the top to manage that and politicize it, and you see nothing of suspicion for extrapolating that to the uncertain future we live in? Or you trust them on their blue eyes or because believing it would make you feel bad?
> Do you seriously trust that not to change?

No, I don't. On the Mac platform, Apple has consistently elected to give users ultimate control. They could have a change of heart some day, but so could Intel, Microsoft, or any other vendor.
No, it explicitly doesn't. The implication is that the robber barons are pure self-interested evil. Self-interest means they aren't focused on you, as opposed to well intentioned self appointed saviors.
Cool but why not just use regular MD with YAML front matter? I don't find that JSON readable at all, comparatively, and that INI isn't any better than the YAML version.

Think scientifically/mathematically. It what most people who hang out HN do intuitively, but most of the general public does not. (Like how Dr Fauci talks about COVID-19 vs how Donald Trump does).
I don't think that's specific to this implementation
Usually the SoC vendor provides the drivers to the Linux kernel tree as they have access to the hardware register specs of the various constituents of said SoC.

With these M1 chips, you're gonna take a long time to get to that level of understanding. I think Apple would likely need to provide Linux driver support to get this to a complete model.

I'm sure the chip can be reverse engineered as they got Linux running on the T2 chip when it was jail broken.
This is really nice, just wasted a few hours on a Sunday afternoon pleasantly.
> They could do all sorts of things, but they do not. The trade-offs are not worth it to "people".

This feels like the main gist of your thoughts, but I don't see it like this. To me, people can value things very highly, but poor implementations, a lack of other people also following the same aspirations & hopes... culturation is hard. Reprogramming new behaviors is hard. Just because current implementations fall short doesn't in any way to me indicate a lack of priorities, a non-valueing.

To me, what really faila about this posting is not at all the people. What fails is the value system. There are some very strong very serious very good principles espoused in this post. But they are all negative liberties, freedom from harms, freedom from bads. Bass abound, oh yes. But actual liberation, the better "as tech should be" needs to be revamped on entirely different fronts. It's not about freedom froms, not about negative liberties, it's about far advanced freedom to'es, positive liberties.

Right now we lack basic basic freedoms, basic wills. We have so little contact with ourselves, with what we desire, for so many negatives dog us, software mediates so much, in un-free, non-positive ways that all we can do is pick out which prison bars we find most tasteless, which negative liberty transgressions we dislike most.
Especially for US universities it coincides with final exams in early December. By the time I'm done with my exams it can be hard to keep up.

Tires last about 60k+ miles or 4-8yrs, and cars last about 200k+ miles. Tires lose about 1/2 inch of a 22 inch or so diameter on about a 10 inch wide tire before they go bad.
The Feynman technique might be helpful to you [0]. When you read about it you'll hear it's about "how to learn", so you might disregard it, but by the result of applying the method is a written page that fully expresses the idea. I would start with that and don't worry about the document becoming too large, just continue as necessary. Finally, aggressively edit the document. If it's very long there may be some "prerequisite" post to write before your desired topic, but you can mostly just pull out the prerequisite content, and then re-edit the original one to account for that.

If you benefit from reading books I recommend The Elements of Style by Strunk and Howe and On Writing Well by William Zinsser.

For blog writing I recommend making a practice of bookmarking posts you like and asking yourself why you like them or why they work. I will point out that blogs permit a flexibility of style and content that few writing forms have ever had. This is a double-edged sword, truly.

I’m going through a similar process so I definitely recognize the challenge you’re having. Good luck!

Edit: I just remembered bookmarking Paul Graham’s excellent “How to Write Usefully” the other day. It might be helpful to you: http://paulgraham.com/useful.html
Exactly right. It is important to understand why things are designed the way they are before we go about challenging established engineering principles.

Like many other in this thread, I too built my own static site. It implements only parts of Jekyll that I use and nothing more: theme and markdown-based content with front matter. It's implemented in Flask using Frozen-Flask and didn't took long to write. I think I spent a weekend to write, tweaked the theme and migrate my contents to it.

I don't have the same need as the author though. If I want to post something that is not a blog post (e.g. a page that showcase a particular personal project), I'll just post it as a standalone page and add whatever custom stuff the standalone page needs in the theme.
Sure, but geometric algebra is specifically marketed as a unifying framework that makes geometric problems easier to reason about. It's not something you learn to solve previously unsolvable problems. So why is there a distinct lack of down-to-earth problem solving?
macOS does indeed show the scrollbar at all times when a input device other than a touchpad is attached.

My desktop Mac never hides the scrollbar, as it uses a normal mouse, however when I was using a Magic Trackpad the scrollbar would indeed hide unless I was actively scrolling.

Odd behavior.

I agree. I’ve been working on a version of pass [1] that uses age [2] instead of gpg (it’s also written in Rust instead of bash so is considerably faster).

It’s very much a work in progress, but enough of the base implementation is done that I’ve started using it as a daily driver replacement for pass.

That's essentially what already happened to the whole "fact checking site" industry. When journalists committed a mass professional suicide in their desire to help politicians they like, there was a perceivable need for non-propaganda information. Thus, "fact checking" gets into fashion. Big players immediately move in anf fact checkers start first getting subtle bias and then just do the same the press did only a short while before - declare that their mission are "bigger than just checking facts", they should serve the noble causes and help people make the right choices - those choices being their preferred partisan points - and surely attacking your own party with the same vigor as you would the opposing one is not helping people making the right choices... and in a short while we're back to the proverbial sq.1 I don't know how to solve this - I have observed several project that started with a noble goal of delivering just facts, away from propaganda and partisan bias - and in a year or two they become as biased as any MSM they wanted to replace.
Yes, they used immunohistochemistry to tag cells, which generally requires removing the brain and imbuing it in a solution of chemicals and antibodies. Unfortunately, non-invasive techniques (such as MRI for instance) still don't give you the cell-level precision that is the field standard for such studies.
In that case they could have linked to that product, right?

Can't find it, but @patio11 has repeated many times on twitter to simply write a lot.

I am struggling with this too. My website(s) are empty of content. And not because I can't write it but I can't bring myself to publish. Seems similar to you.

Something I tell myself is that I literally can always go back, re-read it, and update it whenever I want. I also have promised myself if I have a better version of the article I can replace it with the new one with a new date. I keep the date out of the url for this reason.

The first part of "On Writing" is fantastic, in the sense that it tells you through King's own life that there are no shortcuts: you must learn by writing. And sometimes, you'll have people to criticize what you wrote, and that'll be the best thing.
I think it is OSS [1], although all the code is in Subversion and I don't see a web interface. I haven't dug through it much, but poking around inside the "trunk" module, I see files with headers that say they're GPLv3.

Did they ever start getting license revenue from China? I've had a few recent interactions with Chinese businesses that suggest piracy is still rampant and shameless.
I don't know what computer you have, but it probably produces more heat and has a shorter battery life than the new M1 Macs. That's Apple's real accomplishment—they made an ARM chip that is (very) competitive with modern x86 processors, but which has the power efficiency typical of ARM.

Will a competitor beat them in two years? It's possible, but I expect Apple to keep their lead for a while. CPU-wise, the iPhone has been well ahead of competitors for several years (even as other specs like memory lag behind), and no one else appears to be making serious inroads in this space.

That works wonders for me. You won't fall asleep in less than two minutes the first time you do it, but after doing it for two weeks, you will.

Relaxing the muscles is very important to be able to fall asleep. Pay attention to the facial muscles and those of the eyes. To clear my mind of distracying thoughts I count from 120 to 0. These days I seldom reach 100 before I'm asleep.

You might be skeptical that the process works as stated in the article, as I was, but after you see that the process works reliably you also get the benefit of less anxiety about being able to fall asleep.

It is also very important to check your 25-OH Vit D serum levels. Watch the interview with Dr. Stasha Gominak about the relation between vit D and sleep that was posted recently.

Blog post author here, yes you are correct, I falsely assumed that I can only insert and manipulate one liners in the file due to these commands being the first things I learned about how to use pass, so I just moved away quickly without looking deeper.

At least in the USA, most drive failures of early models (the ones that the swap trick worked on) were due to poor quality plastic carriages. Flipping the system upside down would help... for a time.
Blog post author here, I'm very glad to see my post on HackerNews since I've been a long time reader.

As many have pointed out, one big flaw in this blog post
is that pass allows multi-line edit, I've corrected that
in the blog post.

Many alternatives have been suggested here, I will sure to try them out someday, thanks!
I disagree with this on a few points aside from the hyperbole:

>Apple's implementation will always be ahead, better, less bugs...

No, it's not and really hasn't ever been. Every platform has a shortcoming and claiming it's ahead of the game is a biased stance. The M1 specs may be impressive now, but the same can be said of every "new" SoC chip.

>... linux port will always be a shitty experience...

People who really love Linux and FOSS actually prefer to tune their environment to their expectations. The weeks of tinkering is part of the hacker mindset that is slowly eroding, and I'll take the weeks long config experience over a locked environment.

To sum it all, Linux and consumer open systems have a different target audience from Apple. Apple users are like car lessees, they just want to hop in and drive their car until the lease is up. Linux users are like the mechanic working out of their garage who drives a hodgepodge vehicle they pieced together. To say that the Apple experience is better is just hype, and calling the personalization/optimization process "shitty" is closed-source/closed-minded view.
Agreed. Apple has acquired multiple companies and been building custom CPUs for 10 years with a significant sized design team. They paid about 280M for P.A. Semi in 2008. They reportedly also hired a number of DEC StrongARM refugees as well as several other small design teams. Apple was also an original ARM investor and have been using ARM cores for various uses for decades.

A competitor also needs 10 years experience designing higher and higher performance ARM cpus in tremendously heat/power constrained systems (phones). There are a lot of long term threads that have come together in the M1 chip.
Ooh, I hadn't seen those repos before! I'll check them out! I've worked on converting a book to useful markdown, and hopefully epub and pdf, and there could useful processes there.
You definitely presumed correctly on all accounts. Product management is actually a very good suggestion, I can see how it would make sense. Thank you!
At first this wasn't a singular clear answer I was hoping for, but the many points being made here make it clear that it's a complex area and there's room for another advanced/high-perf build system to cover a broader range of usage.

AFAIK the idea that cravings represent desires for specific nutrients has been largely debunked. Do you know of any material that supports the theory?
The biggest tip I can give is getting the length to reward ratio right. Its trivial to spew out 20 paragraphs on a relatively basic and uninteresting topic that could have been covered in 2 paragraphs. Sometimes people have done incredible amounts of novel research that require pages to properly explain but its worth it for all the learning it provides.

You should also think about the audience for the post. Is it just general reading where you expect people to browse reddit and see it or is it something highly specialized where your readers will likely come from google search looking for reference information.

Yeah...

I think it's laughable, preposterous to call focus and flow a "disorder."

Whoever wants to call me being able to focus on a task at hand a disorder can stuff it up their butt.
It also has been the case that when somebody is going to subjugate you, one of the first things they'd try to do is to control your information intake. If they can define what is "fact" for you, the rest goes much easier - after all, if somebody resists accepting "facts", it is ok to force them to do what "factually" needs to be done, it's only for their own good - it's literally like saving somebody from jumping off a bridge. So if you put a couple of bruises on him or break an arm or a leg, it's still a good deed - after all, he was going to jump off a bridge, so he's better off alive, even with broken leg. As soon as you've given yourself an exclusive license to facts, violence against and subjugation of whoever disagrees with you happens very easily and very naturally.
There's a certain mathematical elegance to APL, I think. When the language is terse enough it helps you visualize and work with the language as a tool of thought--Matlab attempts to map actual mathematics to ASCII which is not that successful for me at least, since it meets a middle ground where it's too difficult for me to think quickly purely in Matlab and it's too high level for it to be useful as a practical language.

Engineers love it for prototyping, though, so maybe I just haven't worked with Matlab enough.
RAM is not the same kind of resource as electricity. An application that uses twice as much RAM is not twice as expensive to run.

I think people would eat meat less regularly if they see the animals butchered.

I don't think this holds. It's pretty obvious that a Thanksgiving turkey or a rotisserie chicken used to be a whole animal, but we still eat those.

Also, you really wouldn't want to eat lab animals, especially ones that have been subjected to pharmaceutical testing.
Do you honestly think they mean that we are physically running out of room on the planet to put roads?

What you're talking about is not frontrunning, it's purchasing order flow for market making. Frontrunning is an illegal activity with a specific definition. Purchasing order flow is not illegal.

While we're at it, quant firms occupy a family of trading strategies which are a superset of HFT; not all quants are market making, trading intraday or pursuing low latency strategies.

I ran linux on a MBP as my primary machine from 2009 - 2015 (on 3 different hardware revs). The late 2015 MBPs moved a bunch of peripherals off of the USB bus making them harder to use with linux at the time. In the years since, support has been added for all those peripherals.

I still use my late 2013 MBP running nixos. That machine was a great piece of hardware at the time and still works fantastically well even today. (Its really sad how terrible most most non-Apple speakers are in laptops).

I would buy an M1 Macbook Air if it could run linux and had good power management. (I'll say the same about an M1 MBP in the generation where they give up on the touchbar and go back to hardware buttons.)
