Lock-Free programming is essential in high performance networking (10G+ network connections) and data communications. Most of the implementation are using ringbuffers. There can be multiple producer consumer implementation as well.

But it's not a real issue for the new M1 minis as its network is down to 1Gbit (from the previous mini 10G).
What's the danger in "opening that can of worms"? IMHO the world might be a better place if there were a lot less killing, whether it's in the context of a war or not. Some killings throughout history are certainly justifiable or excusable, but it seems far more dangerous to me to stick one's head in the sand and avoid reflecting on whether each killing really needed to happen, or if the victim could reasonably have been spared without significant risk of harm or jeopardizing the larger cause (presuming the cause itself is just). "Murder" doesn't seem like an unreasonable label in the latter case. (Whether and how the killer should be punished in such situations is a separate question that I'm not taking a position on here.)
My impression is that when people talk about Zuckerberg, they usually refer to his portrait as a lovable geeky nerd in the movie.

But in reality, you should probably imagine someone with a psychology degree who's a master at pulling strings in the shadows and who just happens to like technology among other things.

I can't find the quote now, but I believe there were several articles about how he was widely disliked at Havard for his FaceMash website. Many people didn't appreciate being part of his psychology experiment ^_^

Also, there was a lot of discussion back in the day because the first Facebook beta looked very similar to a software he was supposed to build as work for hire for a 3rd party. I'd call that a rather opportunistic move.

So I wouldn't be surprised if your thought experiment would end with Zuck just saying "ooh that's sad but I don't care" and not explaining anything.
That contains a lot of platform-specific build instructions for Linux (and for the ELF file format used on Linux but not Windows), so it's never going to work with the msvc toolchain.
LOL we haven't noticed this :D It must've been there for a long time. Will fix that ASAP. Thanks!
I’ve ran the latest kernel with latest openzfs git since around kernel 4.x, currently on 5.9.11. I build inkernel as opposed to a module.

There have been a couple cases where I had to wait a week or two for compatibility fixed to get merged into zfs git, but otherwise staying up to date has not been a problem.
The power of Rust is not in what you can do, it's in what you can't (without the `unsafe` keyword).

C++ doesn't have the prevention. If you're not an expert on concurrency, you might just share mutable access to a regular bool variable between threads and use it in that way (as in the article) and nothing would tell you it's wrong. You wouldn't know you need a specific library (or just "to use std::atomic" in this case) until you encounter the weird runtime behavior, try to debug it, try to formulate a google query that describes the bugs/code well enough, and find the answers.

"Hand holding" (i.e. rejecting programs that don't conform to more advanced correctness rules) is great. It's what computers are good at. It's foolish not to use computers for this!
Show HN: Android Scrabble Like App
Hey, I've been developing this app for last few years in my spare time. Finally got it in a state when I'm considering releasing it so it's time for some beta test. Any feedback I get or bugs you find are gonna help to make the release better.

What's special about the app ? you can play any word in any language you want - something other apps don't support and it's the reason I made it, because there's none in the market supporting my language (Slovak). Also it always bugged me I can't play words from popular culture or slang (Jedi for example ...)

Thank in advance for any help.

Daniel
I stumbled on this article, so needed to hear your opinion, as I could not believe it ... any medical personnel on HN is this a real thing?
Is mixing tech and religion appropriate? At least it would be worth dropping the word "advent" and just do a surprise month?
It was mainly an engineering issue: materials, manufacturing and assembling. It is too big to fail right now, and most issues have been solved. It never was as simple as webinars from scientists would make it. The funniest joke within nuclear eng insiders is the marvels of paper reactors pretty always make real reactors just seem glorified boilers.
> mkdwarfs crashed with recursive links (1-level, just pointing to itself)

That's odd, it shouldn't crash with links at all, as it doesn't actively follow links. Can you please file a bug if you can reproduce this?

> and when I removed dirs while running mkdwarfs, which were part of of the input path

I guess this is fair, but I'll try to take a look anyway. :-)

> On success, mkdwarfs needed 1 hr, and reduced 219 dirs to a size of 970 MB. Not just source files, but also the build and install object files.

My 500 MB image with the 1100+ perls is just installations, from which I've actually removed libperl.a as I've never needed it and it really bloats the image. I've got a separate image with debug information (everything built with -g in case I need to debug the binaries), so the binaries in the main image are essentially all stripped. If I need to debug, I'll just mount the debug image as well, which contains the source files and the stripped debug data.

> 1 hr is a lot, but just think how long squashfs would have needed.

It might be worth trying a lower compression level, especially if you find that mkdwarfs is CPU bound and not I/O bound.
I literally didn't know that Zamboni was a brand name and thought all ice resurfacers were Zambonis until a week or so ago they're that dominate in that market.

Monkey and Banana Problem
I've been on Ubuntu as my primary OS for the last decade or so. The only Mac I ever owned was a Mac Mini (mid 2011). The machine was working great until it started getting unbearably slow with every OS update unless I added more RAM. Then finally came Catalina which just refused to work. The hardware was still great but Apple decided they won't support it anymore. I vowed to never buy a Mac again.

Linux distributions have gotten much better at supporting new hardware, I have a home built machine that I wanted to dual boot Ubuntu and Windows but it refused to take the Windows OS installation USB disk. Ubuntu just worked on first try so I gave up on the dual boot idea.

As much as I would recommend switching back to Linux, there are still hair-pulling issues to be aware of:

- Some software like Gimp just look awful on a 4K monitor, the icons look way too small and I haven't figured out how to fix it.

- Fractional scaling is still hit or miss on some desktop environments. I use gdm and sometimes you'll see artifacts on the date/time indicator caused by fractional scaling. Firefox will sometimes display the menu on the far right corner of the screen while I have the window tiled on the left of the screen.

- Nvidia drivers were a nightmare during the transition from CUDA 10 to CUDA 11 on Ubuntu 20.04.

- Upgrading from a system where python defaults to 2.7 (Ubuntu 18.04) to a system with python3 by default (Ubuntu 20.04) broke so many things that I just had to do a fresh install of 20.04.

- If you use a printer or scanner then sometimes things just refuse to work until you do some magic invocations and restart the computer or the printer.

I mean let's be honest, there existed echo chambers in the first villages people founded. When I visit my relatives who live in villages, trust me, there is plenty of fascist echo chambers and they don't need internet to participate. The online platforms aren't a cause, they are just facilitating it. I believe it really reframes the problem
Just took some calipers to my 2017 Lenovo Yoga and the screen (glass to aluminium) is just over 6mm, so I was off by quite a bit. I also measured a similarly old but low-end Lenovo laptop I had around and and some 2019 HP business laptop and both were close to 7mm.

But the OP3 is also not the thinnest device these days. I know both Samsung and Apple have made flagship devices 6.9mm thick and their cameras were excellent. I've read about 5mm phones as well, but I don't know a thing about their cameras (I'd imagine still better than most laptops though).

And besides, even if there was no way to fit a decent camera in 6mm, I'm certain most business users couldn't care less about a an extra mm of thickness or even a small bump on the back of the screen if it meant that they'd be getting actually usable video out of their absurdly expensive laptops.
I have to say the fact that it makes function evaluation associative is quite appealing.
Hiring Senior Software Engineers ! Work a four day week but get paid for five!
WE ARE HIRING SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEERS!
Location : Remote / US / UK /EU

Administrate’s vision is to be the platform for education. We provide an EdTech solution that helps training departments and training companies manage their entire operation and plug into the rest of their corporate tech stack. We’re looking for smart engineers who get things done with Javascript, React, Python, and our GraphQL API.

We are a fast growing, energetic company, with an established global customer base, a solid core team, and a clear vision.

Here’s a glimpse of what you’ll get :

Work a four day week but get paid for five!! Work around your life with our flexible working policy. Real impact on our products. We are a team of equals, the best ideas win, whomever has them :)

If you think you’re a fit and you might be up for chatting further about the company and the role we have available, you can either visit our career page https://www.getadministrate.com/careers/ or reach out to me on Linkedin https://www.linkedin.com/in/pascale-mina-553a684b/ or send me an email pm@getadministrate.com !
The evolution seems to be like the devices are getting smaller and aim to take over as many things they user otherwise had to do as possible and once that is out of the way, the next step is to control an individual. Once individual life completely depend on the device, you can exert control over human by various means. Suddenly big tech companies will be able to tell people what to do and if they don't they'll get excluded from the "society". We need to stop this in its tracks.
As a follow-up to this line of thought (which I find insightful): if we were to become mature with regards to intellectualism as you say - do you think we would then go on to the next thing to be competitive about? Or maybe we need that next thing to trigger our maturing, as a consequence of competition switching to another domain?

Or, is it possible that competition about important matters is not an inherently human trait, and we could actually just all switch to deeply caring about who is best at Trackmania or who follows the best football team or whatever?

In some sense a sizeable portion of the human population has already done the latter - perhaps they are actually the enlightened ones?

(I'm assuming that competition is important for humans, since this seems to be a well established fact. The question here is whether the competitiveness needs to be about factors related to your intellect and studies/workplace achievements.)
Substitute "VPN" with "any creative use of the hardware that requires low-level access to do something Apple might not endorse".

But you're right, corporate VPNs will certainly still be allowed. Maybe you'll need to install it through the app store, and your company IT will have to submit their VPN configuration for Apple security review or something, but they won't block all VPNs.

I think it was literally more Corbyn screwed up massively. There was pretty much no Anti Brexit campaign. It was from as a far I could see between a guy who wanted Brexit to be over with and a guy who was wanting to play around with Brexit.

I suspect if Labour came out hard on anti Brexit they could have won even with Corbyn. The anti-EU feeling in the UK is nowhere near as bad as it was 4 years ago when they held the vote.
No, Apple doesn't run the translated code with a weak memory model, Rosetta 2 toggles the total store ordering (which the M1 supports) on when running its code.

Microsoft's translator (and QEMU?) does insert extra barriers to make it run on a weak memory model, because they are designed to run on HW without TSO.
Expensive doesn't mean "two extra clicks". It means convincing all of your friends and family to use a new platform. Facebook's network effects impose very high switching costs.

That's one reason your "free choice" defense of Facebook is inadequate. Yes, people "choose" to use Facebook. Yes, they are techncially free to stop using it. But, when the cost is high, is the choice really free?

If an individual's social and professional life depends on a platform because that's what everyone else uses, they cannot in practice switch to another platform even if that is their preference. You might as well argue that someone from a disfunctional family gets a new family. Or that someone living in a disfunctional state emigrates. They can do these things in theory, but in practice they are not completely free to do them.
How will you prevent the site turning into another Voat / image board? Or will you embrace being a home to that type of content? They are happy to police themselves, but the result of that policing is of course representative of the most extremely racist and horrid views as they are not accepted elsewhere. And most people won't want to be associated with such content, so they will avoid the site.
There are communities for novel writing and poetry which gives you maybe half the benefits of a professional editor for free. However, I don't know any for technical blogs.

WhatsApp shares your phone number, device information, and details of your WhatsApp usage with Facebook. A WhatsApp user isn't "on Facebook" in the sense that they have automatically get a public profile, sure, but they are on Facebook in the sense that lots of information about them end up in Facebook databases.

Wow !

As fast remedy for blocked sinuses or sore throat, moreover to clean airways - detoxing from smoking (alcohol dissolve oils.. and lipds) I'm inhaling peppermint tincture (ethanol 90%, mint oil 5%) heating the spoon or by burning a bit of alcohol. Olbas oil doesn't work so good as this, to clean lungs and infections.

In this study aspirin is taken oral. There was a study (2011) 'Aspirin inhalation treatment for COPD patients' https://erj.ersjournals.com/content/38/Suppl_55/p825.abstrac... - I wonder once about it ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24946135 ).
I surely can, given that part of my job is to develop mobile Web apps.
From the FAQ:

> USD consists of a set of C++ libraries with Python bindings for scripting.
I've never seen this verbalized before, but it makes a lot of sense.

> I will out smart you, establish dominance, hierarchy, status etc - all of which is systemically quantified via prestige, status, income, life partners (all the stupid shit physical dominance once got us)

This seems like it will be very hard to get rid of compared to physical dominance. Partly because smarts are far less straightforward than physicality, and partly because it would be a systemic change.
I did something similar, back in the day. I setup debian-administration.org at least partly to document things I'd learned, tried, or discovered.

It was a useful resource for a few years, but it never really took off and I had the pain of dealing with spam and user-support. So now the site is read-only archive-only, and offline.

But it was a good experience. Forcing myself to document things "nicely" really helped make sure I learned things and didn't need to refer back to my own notes in the future.
>In some places it is the only way to get a fair hearing.

Intentionally misrepresenting the facts ensures this isn't a fair hearing. Sure the nuclear industry is guilty of it as well, but we still should be skeptical of any "report" that claims the best plan is the one that will make their company millions of dollars.

>That $1.4B could build a hell of a lot of solar and energy storage that would work immediately.

Or it could build a nuclear plant that would generate more energy overall.

The Cold War Conspiracy to Shut Down the World's First Desktop Computer
It can't be proved that Whatsapp's implementation wasn't tampered with, however. Both server and client are proprietary. It's easy to claim OpenWhisper was implemented while there was someone looking over their shoulders there.

And when dealing with proprietary software, we can't assume benevolence by default, ever. The most defenseless link in the chain, the end-user, needs do be defended.

As a note, you can click on the time stamp of the child post, and respond directly there.

> since I can't reply to the child I'll just say this: I don't like the math you used, I feel like it's making a point that shouldn't be made in a place where it doesn't need to be made. Of course it's going to be dog slow if you're busy waiting. Wtf? I guess I will just leave it at that.

The entire post is about reducing the CPU time necessary to receive data from an external interface, like a serial port. The following paragraph states:

> Instead of making our CPU waste all of this time waiting around, we allow the hardware to manage the simple sending and receiving process, allowing our CPU to either process other important tasks, or go into sleep mode, saving power or battery life.

The intent for this example was to illustrate the difference between busy waiting and DMA. It is not uncommon on microcontrollers to only have a FIFO depth of one byte, which means if you aren't using interrupts, DMA, or threading, you will lose that data.
No, I don't use Magisk because my phone isn't rooted.

Google Pay won't work even if SafetyNet passes because it depends on Google Play Services APIs that aren't implemented as part opf MicroG.

I haven't had any issues with any of my banking apps despite SafetyNet failing. They don't like root but they don't seem to care about SafetyNet.
I also can't help but wonder, since when is go considered a performance oriented language :)
I think this may comes down to interpreted vs compiled. Compiled language assumes some hardware instruction that interacts with primitives at some point. Where interpreted languages are using subroutines to deal with every object. So why not have a check if the value is in bounds, and if not, use arbitrary precision.
Not out of the box but with something like vDos it should.

That's not what I said. Here "when that tech (superconductivity) was so very little understood"

Note: 'was'. Not 'is'. (see edit below)

As for the progression in their understanding I'll leave that for a physicist to discuss. You aren't.

Edit: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superconductivity#High-tempera... for a list of recent stuff (eg. last 15 years). And stop shouting about how stupid everyone else is.
Very cool. I've seen some libraries around for continued fractions, but this is the only one that's reasonably complete.
The Mystery of the Gatwick Drone
If you are a startup, you can have your MacBook Mini in the office. As a larger organisation, you will need a dedicated server room for it limiting access to authorised staff members. You are likely going to need more than one, as you don't want your developers sitting around doing nothing if your MacBook Mini fails. You also need to allocate IT budget to maintain your devices and to replace them on a regular instance.
It’s the subtext isn’t it. Apple went on and on about performance PER WATT. They could crank up the power and shorten the battery life any time they like.
Aside - calling it now - but the M1's x86 memory model mode is a temporary thing that'll go away in a few years along with Rosetta 2 once Apple is happy with the level of universal binary support.
